Add a fifth player, new monsters, new leaders, new warrior dice and more! The long awaited expansion(s) to Champions of Midgard.
Just received this and wanted to share it. That Bergrisar in the front is having a bad day.
Hey all,
I forgot to include this in the last update. It is still not complete, but I wanted to show you what we are doing with the playmat in order to blend everything in better to make it feel more cohesive. There is still more work to be done, but as you can see, we are trying to make the boards feel more cohesive and not just thrown together on a mat.
Hope you like the direction and it should be complete in a couple of days.
Also, we are getting a bunch of questions about adding to your pledge after the campaign. Rest assured, we are going to find a way to take your money for as long as possible ;-). Seriously though, we will have a pledge manager of some sort, so if you are on the fence about something you will have at least another 5 weeks to make adjustments.

Hey everyone,
With another amazing weekend of funding behind us, we have no doubt you will blast past the 500k stretch goal shortly and we'd like to announce a couple more goals to help bling out your game on our way to that final 600k Stretch Goal.
At $535k, We're going to add Viking Longship Score Tokens to track when you've gained more than 100 Glory. With all the new enemies to defeat, such a godlike task is now attainable by you ambitious Jarls-to-be. These tokens will be added to the Dark Mountain Expansion.
At $575k, we'll be adding one final exclusive stretch goal. A wooden start player marker. This upgrade will come in the exclusive box available here at the Jarl and Odin levels.
Tomorrow, no matter where we finish, we will raise of horn of mead in honor of all our fantastic backers. Now let's blast through the last of these stretch goals - for Odin!

Hey everyone,
First off, thanks for the excitement, extra pledges, and sharing of yesterdays update! It was fun to write and am glad it brought a smile to so many.
Today we've got something to share that I hope embodies the same spirit of fun. When we added a promo boat for backers, we loved the idea that it would be not just a boat but something that acted like a boat and we went back to what has always inspired the contents of Champions of Midgard to find it - namely Norse Mythology.
So let us introduce Gullikambi:
Gullinkambi is a rooster that lives in Valhalla. Here, he has been outfitted with a howdah to allow proud viking warriors (who make a good enough offering) to climb aboard his back and ride into battle with the monsters across the sea.
Though the mechanics are still undergoing testing - we could not wait to share this art with you!
