Description

Get ready to embark on a thrilling journey through one of the most pivotal moments in history with 1066: End of the Dark Ages. This immersive board game, designed by Joseph Miranda, drops you into the midst of a fierce struggle for control of Britain in the 11th century. You'll take on the role of one of four factions - the Anglo-Saxons, Normans, Vikings, or Britons - each with their own unique strengths and weaknesses. With two to four players, you'll navigate the complex web of alliances, battles, and political maneuvering that defined this era. As you play through the 12 game turns, each representing a month in this tumultuous year, you'll have access to a wide range of military and political tools to aid in your quest for dominance. From diplomacy and treachery to savage warfare and heavenly omens, every tactic and stratagem is at your disposal. The game's large map, spanning England, Wales, southern Scotland, and the north coast of France, provides the perfect backdrop for your epic struggle. With a playtime of around 240 minutes, you'll need to be strategic and cunning to emerge victorious. Will you lead your faction to glory, or will your opponents outmaneuver you? There's only one way to find out - gather your friends, set aside an afternoon, and get ready to experience the end of the Dark Ages like never before.
