Nidavellir: Idavoll

About this expansion

Nidavellir: Idavoll is the second expansion for Nidavellir, designed for 2–5 players and playable in about 45 minutes. Released in 2022, it introduces new card types, distinctive effects, and an additional round during the first three rounds of Age 1.

During these rounds, the second tavern offers Mythical Animals, Gods, Valkyries, and Giants. Each type brings a different way to strengthen your army or influence your final score, adding new possibilities to the recruitment process.

• Gods: Recruit a God into your Command Zone with a Power token. Discard the token to use that God’s power.
• Giants: Place a recruited Giant in your Command Zone and add a Capture token to the bottom of the column matching its class. Each Giant lets you capture a Dwarf of that class.
• Valkyries: Recruit a Valkyrie with a Strength token on its highest notch. When you meet one of its requirements, move the token down a notch, then earn victory points at game’s end based on its position.
• Mythical Animals: Place each recruited animal in your army in its matching class. Every animal has its own unique ability.

With four new categories to discover, Idavoll broadens the game’s card effects while preserving its focus on recruiting and building your forces. Command Zone cards, capture tokens, Power tokens, and Strength tokens each provide a clear new layer to manage.

Whether you are using a God’s power, capturing a matching Dwarf with a Giant, pursuing Valkyrie requirements, or adding a unique Mythical Animal ability to your army, Nidavellir: Idavoll offers a fresh set of choices across its expanded Age 1 experience.
