About the game

Mythic Battles: Ragnarök casts players as Norse divinities commanding forces against giants and the living dead as the Nine Worlds crumble. Playable as a pure skirmish or as a sprawling saga of scenarios and campaigns, it pairs striking miniatures with card- and dice-driven combat. A drafting mechanic ensures every player fields a distinct, powerful force each game. It's built for two to four players seeking an epic, mythology-soaked tabletop battle.

Hobbli's Notes

Hobbli's editorial team is impressed by the production values here - the miniatures and boards genuinely set an epic scene. The drafting step for building your force is a smart touch that keeps armies varied game to game. This is a commitment-heavy game best suited to groups already invested in miniature-driven campaigns.

What we like

  • Stunning miniatures and artwork bring Norse mythology to life.
  • Flexible play as a quick skirmish or a full multi-scenario campaign.
  • Drafting mechanic keeps army composition fresh every game.
  • Deep combat system blending cards, dice, and variable powers.

Keep in mind

  • High complexity can be daunting for casual players.
  • Miniature assembly adds setup overhead.
  • Full campaigns can run long across multiple sessions.

Who it's for

Ideal for miniature and campaign game enthusiasts age 14+ who enjoy mythological combat, in groups of two to four.
