A narrative-driven skirmish game set in the Viking Age and early medieval period, where every battle tells a story.
"Protect the village. Or burn it to the ground."
Will you stand your ground, defending your people, treasures, and livestock from invading raiders? Or will you storm the enemy’s lands, loot their riches, and set fire to everything in your path? Pillage throws you into the heart of the action, climb, swim, fight, and make every decision count.
Written by Guillaume Rousselot (Noodle Wargames). French version available here.
What is Pillage?
Whether you’re storming enemy villages in search of loot or defending your home from fire and steel, Pillage blends fast-paced mechanics with rich, cinematic moments. Climb towers, dive into rivers, rescue civilians, or set the world ablaze—no two games are ever the same. With its emphasis on storytelling, terrain, and objective-based play, Pillage turns your miniatures into heroes, cowards, and legends in a saga of your own making.
Explore a system that is both accessible and deep, designed to recreate the iconic battles of the period: raids and pillaging. Burn villages, capture loot or future slaves, adapt your strategy to the weather, embark on your Longship, or defend your sacred relics from northern invaders!
This book focuses on the period from the 793 raid on Lindisfarne Abbey to the Battle of Hastings in 1066, but it can easily be adapted to conflicts from Antiquity through to the end of the Middle Ages.
It is a time of upheaval and conquest—a world where kingdoms are forged at the tip of a spear, where raiders strike without warning, and where glory means securing a place of honour alongside one's god.
