The Field Guide is an independent, unofficial fan guide to MinaLima’s physical Harry Potter: Defenders of Hogwarts board game. This is not the official game website. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by MinaLima, Warner Bros. or the Harry Potter rights holders. We do not publish or sell the game, take pledges, or provide official customer support.
Who publishes this guide?
The site publishes under the editorial brand The Field Guide. No individual author identity, professional qualification or firsthand playtest is claimed. Brand attribution identifies the source of our explanations; it does not imply official authorization or specialist credentials.
How the guides are prepared
- Core rules are paraphrased from MinaLima’s official English rulebook, with printed-page references.
- Campaign and release information links to the official campaign and its FAQ.
- Strategy and planning suggestions are editorial interpretations of rules, not tested win rates or promises of better results.
- Teaching videos and independent reviews are attributed to their original creators. Decorative images are original generated artwork, not photographs of official game components.
Dates and corrections
Publication and update dates describe this website’s pages. A separate “Checked” date identifies the recorded source review; a layout or link update does not mean every game rule has been rechecked. Campaign estimates may change. The publisher’s rules, specific card text and current official updates take precedence over this fan guide.
