What is A Feast for Odin

A Feast for Odin is a saga in the form of a board game. You are reliving the cultural achievements, mercantile expeditions, and pillages of those tribes we know as Viking today — a term that was used quite differently towards the end of the first millennium.

When the northerners went out for a raid, they used to say they headed out for a viking. Their Scandinavian ancestors, however, were much more than just pirates. They were explorers and founders of states. Leif Eriksson is said to be the first European in America, long before Columbus.

In what is known today as Normandy, the intruders were not called Vikings but Normans. One of them is the famous William the Conqueror who invaded England in 1066. He managed to do what the king of Norway failed to do only a few years prior: conquer the Throne of England. The reason the people of these times became such strong seafarers was their unfortunate agricultural situation: crop shortfalls caused great distress.

In this game, you will raid and explore new territories. You will also engage in the day-to-day activity of collecting goods with which to achieve a financially secure position in society. In the end, the player whose possessions bear the greatest value will be declared the winner.

Juego del mismo diseñador que el agricola o el le havre y se nota. Es un juego de colocación de trabajadores, con la novedad de que los recursos que ganas (que se pueden transformar en otros al estilo lehavre) los tienes que utilizar para "cubrir" un tablero personal. Tienes muchos puntos negativos y tienes que ir consiguiendo recursos para poder disponerlos en el tablero e ir tapando los puntos negativos. La colocación de trabajadores se realiza sobre un tablero de acciones que tiene unas cuarenta acciones diferentes, disponibles desde el principio, por lo que la primera partida puede resul

Juegazo del tito UWE muy diferente a todo lo demas. Aqui no iras con tension de no poder comer, pues tendras comida de sobra para darle a tus vikingos, aqui tendras tension de ver que haces entre sus 60 acciones, y con tanto tablero negativo. Mi primera partida salio en negativo, y eso que creia que habia hecho una buena partida!! Juegazo recomendado, pelotazo del año, que en unos meses estara en el top 10 de la bgg seguro.
