Description Edit | History

This is a classic Tom Wham game of warring kingdoms in a fantasy world and the legions of things that inhabit them. The board is made from hex tiles, which allows for a different board layout every time. Utilizing an interesting flipped counter element, players attempt to out bluff one another regarding the types of things they have in their armies.

More Information Edit | History

Originally published by West End games and Games Workshop, more recently by Pegasus games in German. The German edition uses hex tiles the same size as those for Settlers of Catan.

In 2009 Z-Man Games announced a new edition of Kings & Things, to be released by the end of the year.

3 Kings & Things Battlefield
I have designed this special Battle Terrain to be used during the combat phase. Use to put over "Things" markers to make your battles more ordered, but also more spectacular. The scheme is divided into three parts (Magic, Ranged and Melee Phase). Print and cut along the edge. Have Fun! :)
