Recently I noticed a restock at my usual FLGS online of the other two games in Shem Phillips' "West Kingdom" series. I love Architects of the West Kingdom so I've had the other two games at the top of my wishlist ever since. However, I find Shem's games aren't always readily available. So I needed to act on this... For the West Kingdom and it's people!!
Yesterday I ordered Viscounts of the West Kingdom & Paladins of the West Kingdom to complete my trilogy. 😁 I'm so excited!!!!
Sticking with the Shem Phillips spirit, I also added the other expansion I "needed" for Raiders of the North Sea; Fields of Fame. I often found (where I shop for my games) that the Hall of Heroes expansion (which I own) was the more readily available one. So once again, I jumped on the opportunity. 😊
Now to continue by getting the other two North Sea games (Shipwrights and Explorers). However, Shipwrights is not showing that it has a solo mode, so the North Sea series may not be completed on my shelves. We'll see...
I have Raiders of the North Sea, and it was a struggle (at the time) to obtain the Solo Variant. And it was priced in the range of Highway Robbery. It (just cards) was new, though. I realize you aren't supposed to start a sentence with the word "and" (in English anyway), but I feel rebellious today. 👹

P.S. Nice GIF, Derek. 😍
Everything about the West Kingdoms series appeals to me except the character art 😆. But, after all this time of hearing so many good things, I may be ready to try one out. Where do you suggest I start???
