Long ago the Greeks, Persians and Assyrians ruled vast empires full of gold and riches. Yet a story went around about a fearsome opponent in the lands above the Black Sea. They came on horseback. Fierce fighters, men and women, masters of the sword, the axe and the bow. But they were no rough savages. Their craftspeople made beautiful gold jewellery, forged leather armour and trained eagles for the hunt and for battle. Some even believe they inspired the Greek tales of the Amazons. In Raiders of Scythia you put together a band of warriors, train animals and gather provisions for your journeys. You raid settlements, haul in loot and complete quests. Every decision counts, because the right crew and the right preparation make the difference between a successful raid and a missed chance. Whoever has the most victory points at the end wins. The game ends as soon as only two settlements or two quests remain. Will you play alone or take on up to three other adventurers? Take a seat, choose your path and go raiding through ancient Scythia.
