Read More... Viscounts of the West Kingdom is set at a time when the King s reign began to decline, circa 980 AD. Choosing peace over prosperity, our once strong King began offering our enemies gold and land to lay down their axes. But peace is a tenuous affair. As poverty spread, many people lost faith in his ability to lead and sought independence from the crown. Since finding favour in his courts, our future has also become uncertain. As viscounts, we must be wise and decisive. Loyalty is to be upheld, but gaining favour among the people must be our priority, should there be a sudden shift in power.The aim of Viscounts of the West Kingdom is to be the player with the most victory points (VP) at game's end. Points are gained by constructing buildings, writing manuscripts, working in the castle and acquiring deeds for new land. Players begin with a handful of townsfolk, but should quickly seek out more suitable talents to advance their endeavours. Each turn they will be travelling around the kingdom, looking to increase their influence among the various areas of society. The game ends once the Kingdom reaches poverty or prosperity - or potentially both! Read More... Who are GeekStop Games? We are a London-based board game retailer, dedicated to spreading the word about the 'new era' of gaming. No, these aren't your typical Monopoly and Risk type games. Many of these games are European by design, which means a much higher degree of strategy than the old roll-and-move games. Make no mistake, there's something for everyone here; games for kids, games for the hard-core strategist, and even light party games. But they all involve having a great time with your friends and family while staying 'unplugged' for a while. And if we don't have what you're looking for, drop us a line...we might just be able to get it for you!    Many people out there are unaware that these types of games even exist. We aim to fix that. Geeky TestimonialGeekStop is a great source for games with fast, friendly service. You can't beat free delivery in the London area, and their prices are competitive with the best online stores. J.
