Albion

About this board game

Albion is a board game for 2–4 players with an approximate play time of 60 minutes, set during the Roman Empire’s planned conquest of the British Isles.

Known as Albion in Roman times, the British Isles are the setting for a contest of carefully chosen development. Players must decide where to establish their settlements, castles, and fortifications, then plan how those developments will progress.

Success depends on balancing several important demands rather than focusing on just one. Resources, defense, nobles, and legionnaires are all necessary, but the timing of each choice is crucial. A strong position requires players to consider how these elements work together throughout the game.

• Choose locations for settlements, castles, and fortifications.
• Balance resources, defense, nobles, and legionnaires.
• Carefully time development decisions.
• Race to fully develop three settlements.

The victory condition is direct but demanding: the player who fully develops three settlements wins. Reaching that goal requires thoughtful planning, as every development decision must support both the growth and protection of your holdings.

With its focus on settlement development, defensive preparation, and the careful management of nobles and legionnaires, Albion presents a contest of timing and balance for up to four players.
