The Cardboard League is The Sanctum’s monthly open gathering of tabletop enthusiasts devoted to playing the best modern board gaming has to offer.  While we’re not going to limit our options, the afternoon start time is designed to allow time for longer, more complex board games that might be too much for an evening of board gaming.

Date: Saturday, January 11th

Time: 5 pm

Featured game: Champions of Midgard

Game description: 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.
