Raiders of the North Sea: Hall of Heroes Review - with Tom Vasel

[@thesleepymeeple2208]

My only real complaint with Hall of Heroes is that it's really easy to forget to add the quest tiles when you raid. The first time we played, we were constantly counting raided sites and available/claimed quest tiles to see if we had forgotten. There's an easy fix to this though - during setup, add a face-down quest tile to every raid location. Then when you raid, just flip the tile over. I really wish the rulebook had just used this. This is a VERY minor complaint. Overall, I love both of these expansions individually, but they also compliment each other nicely. Both are now permanently integrated with the base game. I can't see ever pulling either of them out.

Great idea

Very nice. I like how you handled the skull beverage container. It connotes an evil intent no? :) Also the "liquid courage" aspect of getting drunk before a fight. Kind of a lesson in itself. Once again, well done. Your channel is a "Go To" when I want to know. Thanks.

I have the entire North Sea series of games pledged on the last kickstarter (Explorers expansion), and am so looking forward to getting this. Raiders is definitely my most anticipated of the three games, and I'm thrilled that both expansions have been getting such glowing reviews.

Love this expansion! Won't play with out it. Fields of fame is good but for me this is awesome. A must buy for fans of the game. Raiders is one of my favorite games to play. I am not a big worker replacement game fan.

Definitely going to get this! On another note I'd like to make a suggestion. Do a top 10 of Viking games. I see Sam did a top 5 a few years ago, but this needs updated a bit I think.

I REALLY love the character design in this expansion!

[@TorIverWilhelmsen]

If you spend too much mead and "overkill" the goals, the other expansion will give you fame, so it makes sense to play with both.

Hero: Stian approves! @ 5:14

Huh! I don't think we've been playing with that "eight things" limit rule. Will have to correct that (and find it in the rules).

[@hucz]

It's on the player aid cards, how did you miss it lol

[@Liopot68]

It seems that this expansion adds unnecessary elements to artificially lengthen a game whose tempo and length were its strong points. Just first impression or true?

[@TheHallbjorn]

I think it can speed up the game by making the offering option easier for players who haven't been able to gather the heavy provision requirements to raid the fortresses.
