Champions of Midgard blends worker-placement and dice-driven combat to create an exciting and strategic experience. They are both worker placement games and that’s about as far (for me anyway) as the similarities go. Champions of Midgard (formerly Defenders of Nidaros) 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. There are four spaces that are modular and change every turn, reminding me somewhat of the buildings in Waterdeep although they are fixed for the entire game.Domestika on using python to do generative art and then realized the whole thing was in Portugese with subtitles. It’s a source of negative point tokens that acquires additional toxicity the more that you have in front of you.

Por otro lado creo que los enemigos se vencen demasiado fácil: con máximo 3 de daño ya acabaste con ellos.A game like this needs to make you agonize over where your dice go and I don’t feel at all like Champions of Midgard succeeds in that design goal. Roll your way to viking glory in Champions of Midgard, carefully place your workers out onto action spaces around the board to gather resources, gain new warrior dice, build new ships, pick up new missions and ultimately take on enemies. I love the theme combined with the worker placement but then throw in the randomness of dice rolls and you have a really fun, easy to play game. There’s a lot to be said for a game that offers a great meat-and-potatoes gaming experience with broad appeal and an exciting setting and Mr. The ups and downs of sending out warriors sounds exciting and it is, but those three spaces are in the center of the board for a reason.

I keep thinking about Lords of Xidit or Waterdeep where there is a buildup to larger battles that takes time, requiring you to make several profitable choices before you can work up to bigger rewards.
