Champions of Midgard
is a middleweight, Viking-themed, worker placement game with dice
rolling in which players are leaders of Viking clans who have traveled
to an embattled Viking harbor town to help defend it against the threat
of trolls, draugr, and other mythological Norse beasts. By defeating
these epic creatures, players gain glory and the favor of the gods. When
the game ends, the player who has earned the most glory earns the title
of Jarl and is recognized as a champion of Midgard!
Placing workers allows for the collection of resources and warriors,
which players may then send on journeys to neighboring villages or
across the sea to defeat monsters and gain the glory they need for
victory. Resources are used to carve runes, build ships, and feed your
followers. Viking warriors (custom dice) do battle with the myriad
enemies the town faces.
