Vendel to Viking

Looking for a Viking strategy board game with legacy-style dynasty building? Before the Viking Age began, powerful families laid the foundations of legend. In Vendel to Viking, you guide your bloodline across generations, drafting achievements, growing your family, and building influence through sacred traditions and calculated decisions. This strategic board game features tableau-building, market drafting, and milestone competition on a common tech tree. Your timing and choices shape the legacy of the clan. Will it echo through time or be lost to history? Integrates very well with Pax Viking for a saga over to games. How to Play You represent a family in one of the Nordic cultures that evolves into one of the prominent families of the Viking era. Each turn represents a generation and you seek to include the best formidable persons in your family as you evolve from generation to generation. You place family members on the map and use them for accessing different effects in various locations, such as worker actions or for even elevating them into a formidable person. When elevated to status, the family member is linked to a character card taken from a market and moved to an achievement tree. The character goes to your family board and both their presence in the achievement tree and on the family board affects your family’s opportunities for the rest of the game. You must plan well before the centuries run out! The first to hold two Future-level achievements in the achievement tree wins. If no player manages to do so before a set number of turns, the one with the most points wins. In addition to having a robust Solo Mode, the end state of Vendel to Viking will interface with the starting state of a game of Pax Viking making it possible to play the two games as a Campaign.
