Description

Britannia is the eponymous adaptation of the historical board game that broadly depicts the age-old conflict for control of Britain from 43 to 1066 A.D. Leave your mark on the island and take control of England, Scotland, and Wales.

Game mechanics
Britannia uses the same ruleset as the historical board game and relies on support from the original creators. Take control of a nation and issue strategic recommendations to move forward and gain the upper hand over your enemies.
Earn victory points by conquering and keeping territories, defeating enemy units, and being elected Bretwalda or King of England.
Key features
- History
The game begins with the Roman invasion in 43 A.D., continues through the many conflicts between the Angles, Saxons, Picts, Norwegians, Scots, Irish, and other peoples, and ends with the Norman Conquest of 1066. Play as the rebellious Queen Boudica, legendary King Arthur, Danish King Knut, or William the Conqueror and leave a mark on the early history of Britain.

Develop your nation, manage your army, and fight by choosing the battlefield that will lead you to victory. But that's just the beginning – numerous unique game mechanics await you in Britannia!
- Alternate history
Take control of Albion's destiny! In Britannia, you can change the course of history and create diverse outcomes.
- Scenarios and customization
Playable offline with 1 to 4 players across 3 scenarios, including the Roman invasion of 43 A.D., the 5th-century Germanic invasions, and the invasions from the North (by Danes, Vikings, and Normans) until around 1066.
- A faithful adaptation of the board game
Lewis Pulsipher's masterpiece is brought to life in 2022 with the digital version thanks to Philippe Thibaut (Europa Universalis, Ageod, Avalon Digital games, SGS series).

*** UPDATE *** I'm sorry to say while all of the original review below holds true, I can't recommend it anymore. As single player practice platform it's still fine. The AI is still woefully poor at the game, but for
Really good game, good representation of the board game, I used to really like it and played it a lot. Sadly now unplayable due to being full of bugs, everything keeps disappearing, re-installing hasn't solved it. So I
except for few minor bugs and extremly dumb AI, its great, you can invite your friends over and instead playing board game, you can all sit in front of one PC and play together. Didnt work for me btw, mostly laughing at
Brilliant porting of the remarkable Avalon Hill board game. Minor glitches in the UI, but overall works smoothlly. Too bad remote multiplayer is not there yet and AI is not particularly smart. I hope it will improve
Unplayable. Tons of UI bugs and soft crashes. Regions and units unmovable with no feedback explanation, making it very difficult to tell the difference between "you can't move there" and "a bug has crashed the game"
disappointed that I waited 2 years for multiplayer to be added, scheduled a game with my 3 friends for my birthday, and then gamebreaking multiplayer bugs ruined the experience. for one of my favorite games, I wish
