00:00:00.000Greetings, you friends. Today I thought to answer the one of the most common questions I get, and that is actually what my favorite board game is.
00:00:17.000Okay, so it's not really one of my most commonly asked questions.
00:00:22.000Yeah, to be perfectly honest, I've never actually been asked this, but it's a good fucking game so I'll talk about it either way.
00:00:39.000It's a glorious game for three to five players. I mostly played it with four, which is the optimal amount.
00:00:46.000And as the title suggests, it's a historical game which follows Britain from the Roman invasion to the Norman invasion, and then you take different factions.
00:01:07.000And obviously, I might have mentioned this in the past, but the reason I'm so interested in British history actually stems from the fact that British authors like to write about British history or Roman history.
00:01:20.000So you have to choose from those two. And since Swedish isn't that big of a language, I mainly have to pick books written in English.
00:01:28.000So that's what led me into British history. So I read so much about it that I've gotten into it.
00:01:35.000And this game is about that, so very cool for me.
00:01:40.000And speaking of British history, I will reveal a little secret.
00:01:46.000It's not fucking wine, because I'm serious about my games.
00:01:56.000Either way, so during the post-Roman and pre-Norman era of England, there was a title called Brettvalda.
00:02:06.000That was awarded to the most powerful king of the different kingdoms of England, you know, Mercia, Wessex, and Dessex, and stuff like that.
00:02:19.000And if you think of the title and the name, Brettvalda, does it sound similar to anything?
00:02:27.000It might. It just might, true friends.
