Relive the Scottish wars of independence as blocks hide your true strength and nobles shift their loyalty.
Vibe's take
fog-of-war suspense, noble loyalty drama, historical narrative, strategic card play
Who it's for
Two-player wargame fans who want accessible block-game mechanics wrapped in a dramatic Scottish independence narrative.
Not for you if…
You need more than two players or prefer wargames with more detailed tactical granularity.
William Wallace raises the banner of Scottish independence against the English crown in this block wargame that brings Braveheart to the table. The fog-of-war block system means you never know exactly how strong an enemy army is until battle begins. Noble loyalty shifts as both sides compete for the allegiance of Scottish lords, and the campaign card system drives the strategic tempo. A wargame that feels like a historical drama unfolding.
