Friends and Communities with Saxon Shore

Description

Saxon Shore drops you into the tumultuous world of fifth century Britain, where the Roman withdrawal has left a power vacuum and the local Britons are fighting for survival against waves of settlers from all corners of Europe. This is a time of chaos and upheaval, with economic systems in breakdown and spiritual beliefs in flux, but also a time of opportunity for those who dare to seize it. As one of two to five players, you'll be vying to become the dominant kingdom of the British Isles, navigating the complex web of warfare and politics to emerge victorious. With simple yet engaging gameplay, Saxon Shore challenges you to outmaneuver your opponents and fulfill one of several victory conditions - whether that's eliminating the competition, building a network of cities, controlling key resource-producing provinces, or simply dominating the map. Designed by David Kershaw, this game combines area-impulse and pick-up and deliver mechanics to create a thrilling experience that's easy to learn but hard to master. As you struggle to build your kingdom and outwit your foes, you'll be immersed in a world of ancient warfare and politics, where strategy and cunning are the keys to success.
