Description

Get ready for a fierce battle of wits and strength in Battle Ravens, a game of Viking Age warfare for 2 players. Published in 2019 by renowned game designer Daniel Mersey, this game is easy to learn but challenging to master, with a playtime of 45 to 60 minutes. As you clash with your opponent, you'll need to out-think and out-fight them to emerge victorious, using a combination of area majority, influence, and worker placement mechanics to outmaneuver them. The game is all about breaking your opponent's shieldwall before your own army loses heart and flees, and the most cunning warlord will be the one whose name is written into the Sagas. You'll command your battle line to attack, defend, or redeploy, using action points to make tactical decisions, and combat will be resolved by the roll of dice. With armies consisting of Hirdmen, Bondi, and Thralls, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, you'll need to use all your strategic skills to win the battle and claim victory. Whether you're a fan of medieval warfare, miniatures, or just a good fight, Battle Ravens is the perfect game for you, offering a fun and intense experience that will keep you coming back for more.
