Renegade Game Studios has revealed plans to release two additional expansions to the hit Raiders of the North Sea later this year. The first, Hall of Heroes, adds plenty of wrinkles to the core game with new ways to recruit crews, gain resources, and score victory points. You’ll also be able to add an additional player to your game. The second expansion, Fields of Fame, brings enemy leaders (known as jarls) to the aid of defending settlements which make raiding these towns more difficult. Of course, defeating jarls brings additional fame and booty! This expansion also includes components for an additional player.
Raiders of the North Sea: Hall of Heroes and Raiders of the North Sea: Fields of Fame will will each carry an MSRP of $50.00. Both expansions are expected to land on these shores in Q4 2017.
From Renegade:
Renegade Game Studios is pleased to announce two expansions for the acclaimed Raiders of the North Sea from Garphill Games. These two expansions add new options and challenges for players as they test their raiding skills in the Kennerspiel des Jahres nominated Raiders of the Noth Sea. Both expansions require Raiders of the North Sea to play and are expected to release Q4 2017.
Hall of Heroes
Hall of Heroes brings in new ways of gaining resources, acquiring crew and scoring Victory Points. After each raid, a new Quest is placed onto the Board. To complete a Quest, players will need to send (discard) warriors from their hand of a certain strength value. Once completed, the Quest is placed above a Player’s Board and will score Victory Points at the game’s end. Each Quest also rewards players with Iron, Gold, Silver and other resources. Players can also collect Mead, which can be spent during a raid to fuel their crew and gain even more strength in battle!
Fields of Fame
Fields of Fame brings a new dynamic into the game with the addition of Jarl tokens being mixed in with the Plunder and Valkyrie. When taking a set of Plunder with 1 or more Jarls, the raiding player must reveal from the draw pile, which Jarls they are encountering. They have the option to kill (for Fame and other rewards), subdue (to recruit them) or to flee. Killing and subduing will bring wounds to a players crew, but fleeing will lose them Fame or Victory Points. Players can also gain Fame by raiding with overpowered crews. When a crew’s strength is above the highest tier for scoring Victory Points, players move up with the Fame Track, which scores additional Victory Points at the game’s end.
