Game description from the publisher: Vikings: The Board Game is a strategy game of exploration and raiding based upon the dramatic television series Vikings that allows players to embrace their inner Viking. Each winter in the game, players will scheme to acquire appropriate resources while convincing heroes such as Ragnar Lothbrok, Lagertha, Rollo and Floki to support them as they put their longships in the water to raid each summer. Plunder treasures and foreign resources across modular tiles that ensure a different game each time you play, while completing offers to the Seer will ultimately lead a player to victory!
