We are in the 800s. The Anglo-Saxons of Bretland are living peaceful lives, unaware of the imminent danger that is coming. Hundreds of Warriors and Shield Maidens from all over Scandinavia are sailing for the mainland, setting foot for the first time ever on English soil. Led by the most powerful Viking leaders, they set about raiding and pillaging everything in their way. Their goal is simple: Gather as much wealth, land, and fame as possible to become the next Great Viking Leader. Sagas: Bretland is a game for two to four players where each player forges their saga as they raid Bretland in search of wealth, land, and fame. Starting with a small raid party on the shores of Bretland, each player will explore the land, expand their colonies, gather resources, and raid Anglo-Saxon settlements while battling any other Viking leaders that may stand in their way. At the end of the 8th round, the player with the most victory points wins Sagas: Bretland. These can be earned by building new Viking villages, raiding existing Saxon settlements, raiding other player’s settlements, and completing specific objectives. Who will be the next Great Viking Leader? —description from the publisher
