The end is coming, and the greatest warriors are standing up to fight so they can die in glory and reach Valhalla. Here you are a Jarl, building a team of warriors, equipping them and sending them into battle. In a fight you roll custom dice to activate your warriors and play tactic cards to push things your way. The winner of the battle sends the activated warriors to Valhalla, and that is where the points come from. It turns the usual war game on its head, because winning matters more than killing. Cards, dice and a wide choice of Jarls and tactics keep every game different. One to six players, around an hour, with a Norse flavor.

Who it's for

You like dice and card combos with a Viking feel, and you have up to six people who enjoy a bit of mayhem.

Not for you if…

You want low luck or deep tactics. The dice decide a lot, and it is a battle-card brawl.

Vibe's take

Boisterous and swingy. Dice make the fights loud, and tactic cards let you wriggle out of or into trouble at the last second.
