Lords of Ragnarok (Gamefound – Mythic Sundrop Pledge) consists of:
1) Enhanced runes
2) Art Book
3) Lords of Ragnarok Core Box (Sundrop)
4) Lords of Ragnarok Stretch Goals (Sundrop)
5) Terrain expansion (Sundrop)
In this 1-4 player strategic board game, you will lead a unique, asymmetric hero and their army, trying to be the ultimate victor in a war that unfolds over approximately 120 minutes. Players will choose from various actions, such as building monuments, hunting monsters, ravaging the lands, gathering armies and artifacts.
Gods will grant you blessings that will heavily impact the game and create a unique combo for each player. On top of all that, special runes will play a significant role in leveling up your armies or earning other bonuses that include control of deadly monsters.
While the game is spiritual successor of Lords of Hellas and implements a lot of core gameplay aspects, there will be a lot of new mechanics and twists, so prepare yourself for fresh, new thematic experience!
Multiple victory conditions will keep players at the edge of their seats until the end of the game, making room for some stunning, carefully planned last-minute reversals!

It’s a variant of Lords of Hellas. I don’t think it’s better. No need to have this if you already have Lords of Hellas.

Feels like Lords of Hellas 2. If you like LoH, you'll probably like this. If you didn't, this isn't gonna change your mind. Reduces the number of pieces on the board, removes quests but adds rune hunting and rune actions, lets you tame monsters (Kraken I choose you!), adds a harsher timer on the game, and adds neutral zones that give you a buff if you place a control token on them. Heroes have more to do, despite quests being gone, and the army strength actually works a little better for me. I'm actually shocked by the piranhas in the press on this one, as I'll be the first to admit it's overproduced, but no more than any other massive KS. If you *know* that you'll only play at 4 and maybe two or three times tops, just get the base game. Want yellow pieces and some sea monsters, and maybe a different god or boss; possibly with a fifth player? Get the stretch goals. Want more boats? Seas of Aegir. Want to fill that missing slot in the insert? Valkyrie. Need some extra buddies to knock your friends around? Giants. Just want some extra minis? Get the variety pack. Want slightly upgraded runes? ...Uh, get the Runes box. But if you're not going to faff about with that, the base box is more than enough content to hold your attention for a long time. Learning this is a little much, and set-up isn't the most clear in the manual. But once you get it down, turns are pretty fast. It does have the same downtime problem during hunts and combat as LoH if you're a selfish player. That said, the new map does create some interesting scenarios (drakkars give you massive movement options) to explore. I will say that a 5p game went about 3.5 hours for us, four including the teach.
