Champions of Midgard

Players lead rival Viking clans who arrive to defend a besieged harbor town from trolls, draugr and other mythic beasts. On a turn, players place workers to collect resources, recruit warriors and take actions such as carving runes, building ships and feeding followers. Recruited warriors are represented by custom dice that are rolled when sent on journeys or into combat against monsters in neighboring lands and across the sea. Defeating creatures and completing ventures earns glory and divine favor; the player with the most glory at the end is declared the town’s champion.
