‘Rocks of Ruin’ to Expand ‘Explorers of the North Sea’ This April

Feb 15, 2018

With so many titles and expansions for the North Sea series you might think Renegade Game Studios could be considering changing their name to North Sea Games. The latest release in the series will expand Explorers of the North Sea with new game play options in Rocks of Ruin. Players will now be able to search shipwrecks, build structures, and even add a fifth player to the proceedings. Rocks of Ruin is for two to five players, ages 12+, and will carry an MRP of $35.00 when it arrives in April

From Renegade:

Recent storms have left longships torn apart, with their precious cargo scattered across the rocky shores. Meanwhile, rumours of great fortresses in nearby regions are beginning to spread. Will you be the first to salvage the wrecks, or will you throw caution to the wind and charge the enemy fortresses for fame and glory?

Rocks of Ruin adds new ways to score with salvaging Shipwrecks, building Structures and raiding Fortresses. When placing tiles with a Shipwreck, a token is taken from the supply and placed facedown on the tile. Players may spend an action with 1 Viking to salvage a Shipwreck. They will either find Timber for building Structures, Provisions for additional actions, Battering Rams for raiding with 1 fewer Viking, or precious Gold worth 3 Victory Points at the game’s end.

*This is not a standalone game. Explorers of the North Sea is required to play.

Features:

New ways to play Explorers of the North Sea!
Use Battering Rams to Raid Fortresses!
Includes mini expansion for The North Sea Runesaga!
Add a 5th player to your game!
Expansion for 2-5 players, ages 12 and up.
