Game Background
It's the dawn of a new era, new lands are waiting to be explored... armies are growing in power by constructing ships... small tribes are now becoming empires. Who will be the first to succeed where someday others will follow?

The object of the game is to be the first to control an entire empire by having your armies or navies (the small tokens) on every region of an empire. Armies and navies are placed on the game board by playing action cards.

Beautiful full color map and components are ready to download.

Sword and Sail Black & White Board

I made this black and white version of the board because I wanted to try this game but didn't want to waste ink printing the board at the risk that I didn't like it. Hope someone finds it helpful.

Sword & Sail - Poster size

This is a 24 x 21 inch jpeg of the board, cards, pieces and rules for those who want something a bit bigger to play on. Take it to a local printers and have it printed and laminated. After that, its just cut & play. This is just an enlargment of the game designers original print & play files.
