Robbers of Scythia

Product description Robbers of Scythia

Centuries ago, the Greek, Persian, and Assyrian empires owned vast amounts of land and wealth. Despite their fortresses and imposing armies, rumors spread about a formidable enemy from the area north of the Black Sea.

The fierce warriors, both men and women, came on horseback. They were skilled with sword, bow and axe. But they were not uncivilized barbarians. Their skilled craftsmen were renowned for their detailed gold trinkets. They also made leather armor and developed the recurve bow. They trained eagles for hunting and war. Some even believe that the Greek stories about the Amazons are based on them. But they were more than a legend or fable. They were the Robbers of Scythia.

The player with the most victory points (VP) at the end of the game is the winner. Victory points can be earned by raiding settlements, plundering and completing missions. You'll have to hire warriors, train animals, and stock up on supplies. The game ends when there are only 2 plunder spaces or 2 missions left on the game board.
