Battle against two factions as they war for control of the legacy of the Wizard Tezla. Step into the shoes of an all new Mage Knight, the Storm Druid Braevalar, as he emerges from the forest to bring an end to the destruction caused by the war between the Avatars of Tezla. Review: Five Stars - pleased Review: (deeply) Flawed Genius - As a game expansion, this is excellent. The additional scenarios and game play elements really build on the already mighty foundations of Mage Knight. So this review is really about the quality of the expansion's components... I knew all about the issues going in, but I was still shocked by the way the manual had been crammed into the box! Just: Wow. The cards are indeed a shade different in colour, but once sleeved, I think they're fine (I play almost entirely solo, by the way). The two large faction discs match the Lost Legion version in terms of feel, but the artwork clashes with the general tone of the base game. Thankfully in use they cover the offending tacky artwork. The creature counters are notorious for being a different size. They are indeed, and they are noticeable when mixed with the base game counters even when dispersed across the board. A couple of hex replacement counters are included, and the artwork on these is also somewhat sub-par. The pale blue temples are particularly poorly executed. Last of all, the plastic figure reaches a new low for the Mage Knight series. The base game and Lost Legion figures are very cheap and nasty (and extremely poorly designed and modelled), but the Tezla model is appalling. It's modeled to such a different scale to the others that it has had to be placed on some sort of rock, just to give it some extra height! The paintwork is also very unpleasant. All in all, it's like a piece of tat from a discount box of Christmas crackers. Very embarrassing! To be generous then, I think it's still playable. The Lost Legion had its own production issues, and there are plenty of examples of counter-flagging problems from the first two sets, so it's nothing new. There's a lot of fun to be had here however, and let's face it, what choice do you have if you want to further develop the game? ## Features - Warning:Not suitable for children under 36 months - Portable ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B012E7T3JU | | Are Batteries Required | No | | Best Sellers Rank | 688,711 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) 14,397 in Board Games (Toys & Games) | | Brand | WizKids | | Brand Name | WizKids | | CPSIA Cautionary Statement | Choking Hazard - Small Parts | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 82 Reviews | | Edition | Expansion | | Genre | Cooperative | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00634482721162 | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 25.4 x 20.3 x 20.3 centimetres | | Item Weight | 0.67 Pounds | | Manufacturer | WizKids | | Manufacturer Part Number | WZK72116 | | Material | Cardstock | | Material Type | Cardstock | | Minimum Age Recomendation | 144 | | Model Number | WZK72116 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Players | multi player | | Number of players | multi player | | Operation Mode | manual | | Size | One Size | | Special Features | Portable | | Subject Character | Avatar | | Theme | Forest | | UPC | 634482721162 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** WizKids - **Genre:** Cooperative - **Material:** Cardstock - **Number of players:** multi player - **Theme:** Forest ## Images ![WizKids Mage Knight Board Game: Shades of Tezla Expansion - Fantasy Strategy Cooperative Game for 6 Players, Ages 12+ - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81WnAyHmthL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by D***N on 24 February 2017* pleased ### ⭐⭐⭐ (deeply) Flawed Genius *by A***R on 16 September 2015* As a game expansion, this is excellent.

There is are a few misprints in the rule book the main one being that there is no site description card but very please that Wizkids fixed all the other issues. ## Frequently Bought Together - Mage Knight: Shades of Tezla Expansion Set - Mage Knight Board Game: The Lost Legion (Expansion Set) - Mage Knight: Krang Character Expansion --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/49135281-wizkids-mage-knight-board-game-shades-of-tezla-expansion-fantasy](https://www.desertcart.us/products/49135281-wizkids-mage-knight-board-game-shades-of-tezla-expansion-fantasy) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-22*
