Under license from WotC, Wizkids will be releasing the Dungeons and Dragons Attack Wing miniatures game, using the same Flightpath Maneuver System as the Star Wars Attack Wing miniatures game.

Details here: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/133116-Attack-Wing-D-D-Unleashes-Dragon-Battles-On-Your-Tabletop

Dyver's Blog has more recent info drawn from a Wizkids flyer: http://dyverscampaign.blogspot.com/2014/05/wizkids-dungeons-and-dragons-attack.html

Hmmm...

I may get some of the minis, if they look nice. I've got some of the ones from the Star Wars game, and those figs are amazingly detailed, especially given their size.

Notably, the Star Wars X-Wing game is from Fantasy Flight games, while D&D Attack Wing is from WizKids. I've heard the minis from WizKids' other FlightPath system game, Star Trek Attack Wing, leave something to be desired compared to the quality of the Star Wars Attack Wing minis.

I definitely like what WizKids have been doing with the Star Trek Attack Wing game, so I'll check out their D&D interpretation, I think, as well.
