Eketorp
Players build Viking strongholds on a Swedish island by collecting construction blocks. Each turn, new resources appear and players secretly assign their vikings to spaces. After placements are revealed, opposing vikings resolve combats to claim blocks or steal from others, with defeated vikings removed temporarily to a field hospital. The game proceeds for a fixed number of rounds or until a player completes their fortress, and scoring rewards the most valuable collection of blocks.

Garfield2.0 57 Playtested only. Not sure if I should keep this. Interesting theme. But unfortunately the gameplay is quite boring, you only can play cards with value 1-6 for fighting. Seems quite chaotic and random. And the box is way too big, I could place 2 better games for that on my shelf...
