Blood Rage: 5th Player Expansion
This expansion introduces the option of playing Blood Rage with 5 players. The game board supports this by simply not having any province destroyed by Ragnarök before the beginning of the game.

5 player Blood Rage seems like it would be excessive and maybe run a little long. I can tell you that it doesn't and it is surprisingly good. The differences are mild. There are no destroyed provinces at the beginning of the game. There are also an additional 8 cards added per age. These are a variety of quests, battle and upgrade cards. And of course there is the new clan, the Ram Clan. Everything else in the game runs exactly the same. There is much more competition for the spaces with all of the other players (especially in Yggdrasil) and battles can be very intense. I noticed that I was running out of cards more quickly as I was winning many Pillages. The game might run a little longer but I didn't really notice it. Everyone seemed very engaged. It also seemed that the points were higher than in a 3 or 4 player game, or at least for us. I don't really have a lot of these thematic Euro games that play with 5 so this works really well. Good stuff!

Indispensable pour jouer à 5. Le soucis c'est que cette extension est multilingue, du coup il y a les 3 quart du matériel acheté qui reste dans la boite.

Blood Rage is fun. This expansion delivers on the promise of good crowded fun. Can recommend. Plays are logged under base game.
