The Miser's Gold

 

 

Vikings

 

Marius the Miser has died, but no-one can find where he left his gold! It is probably buried somewhere near his house (the little cottage next to the jetty), but the peasants have spent the last day digging over his field without success. Maybe it is somewhere else...

 

Digging for gold.

Roll one dice per figure each turn in a possible treasure location.

A 6 allows you to look at the counter. This will either show nothing, or one or more sacks of gold. There is one counter with 3 sacks, two with two, and three with one, out of a total of 20 counters (10 on each side of the river)

A sack of gold can be carried by one man at no more than walking speed. A horse can carry two sacks, a cart or a boat any number.

 

1 point per animal stolen from the village

10 points per sack of gold

-3 points per man killed

-1 point per man wounded

Must get gold and animals off in the boat
