Pixie Games Pillards de Scythie

Travel and plunder the ancient realms on horseback! Centuries ago, the Greek, Persian, and Assyrian empires controlled vast territories and possessed immense wealth. Yet, despite their fortifications and imposing armies, rumors began to circulate about a formidable enemy in the lands above the Black Sea. They came on horseback. Fierce warriors, both men and women, skilled with sword, axe, or bow. But they were not mindless barbarians.

Their craftsmen were renowned for their ability to create intricate gold objects. They crafted leather armor and curved bows. They trained eagles for hunting and war. Some even believe they inspired the Greek tales of the Amazons. But they were more than a legend or fable: they were the raiders of the Scythians.

Victory points are earned through attacks on colonies, plundering, and completing quests. Players must build a crew, train animals, and gather supplies. The game ends when only two colonies or two quests remain unplundered on the main board.
