This is my latest game design. Still very much in the early stages of testing, but I am happy with how it is going so far.

Overview
Selandia is set in the early years of the Viking Age, circa 1000 AD. As Viking shipwrights, players compete to build the greatest fleet on the shores of Selandia. Players must collect oak, wool and iron, as well as getting other craftsmen on board to help. Gold is a precious commodity, and must be spent wisely. As you would expect, the island is filled with an array of characters, bad and worse. Better hope they're on your side!
Project Updates
New Selandia prototype
After a fair bit of playtesting, I decided it was time to produce a new improved version of Selandia. Players now build just four ships, rather than five. There is less gold available and reference charts on the boards. I've also added four new character cards, and made a few changes to each ship.
The first Selandia prototype
This is the first prototype for the Viking saga, Selandia! The name comes from the modern day Danish Island of Zealand. Selandia is the Latin translation.
