Fire & Axe – A Viking Saga Board Game This is a game that spans the time of the Viking Sagas. The epic journeys that led Norsemen to raid, trade and settle over the known and unknown territories of the northern hemisphere. You command your warriors and map out your strategy – only the strongest, most courageous and luckiest will triumph. The map covers the whole Viking world – the Northern seas, the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean, as well as the waterways of Eastern Europe. It is across this map that each Viking will move his longboat. Vikings begin their journey taking the necessary time to load crew and goods onto their boat, launching from one of three home ports into the seas and out to take actions either settling, raiding, or trading throughout the foreign ports of the Viking world; picking up points from each. The winner of the game is the Viking who has acquired the most points at the end of the three Sagas. An innovative “wind” mechanic paired with a seven day-by-day action point selection mechanic and the Viking theme makes this a most unique and interesting pick up and deliver game.
