Title:
Shipwrights of the North Sea
Description:
Shipwrights of The North Sea is Part of the three-game trilogy comprising The North Sea Saga, along with Raiders and Shipwrights (both of the North Sea). The North Sea Saga is a trilogy of games that follow the progress of the Viking culture. Each game is unique and follows a different time period. All three may be played as a campaign using The North Sea Runesaga even though each is mechanically quite different.
So gather your warriors, it’s raiding season!
Shipwrights of the North Sea is set in the early years of the Viking Age, circa 900 AD. As Viking shipwrights, players compete to build the greatest fleet on the North Sea. Players must collect oak, wool and iron, as well as getting other craftsmen on board to help. Gold is a precious commodity, and must be spent wisely. As you would expect, the township is filled with an array of characters, bad and worse. Better hope they’re on your side!
