Raiders of Scythia Worker Placement Strategy Game

Raiders of Scythia sends 1-4 players to the lands above the Black Sea, where fierce horseback warriors raid Settlements and complete Quests to earn Victory Points. It’s a worker placement game with dice rolling, hand management, set collection, and variable player powers, and every turn gives players a choice of two actions. If a spot is open, a worker goes there; if it’s taken, players can remove a worker instead, so there’s always a move worth making. Built for ages 12+ with an average playtime around 60 minutes, it rewards players who think ahead about sequencing their actions.
