Overview

Arthur and Mordred fell at Camlann field. Arthur's body has been taken to Avalon, and unknown to the fey, Mordred followed - for the shattered son of King Arthur is not dead. By way of forbidden lore, his body endured the wounds of Excalibur and followed along the hidden ways to Avalon. Now the veil between the magical and the mundane has been pierced, and the wound calls like a beacon. The way is open, and all those with the sight now see it, so they come — some to defile the land, some to defend it.

In Avalon: The Riven Veil, an Arthurian-based area-control and exploration game, you lead mighty factions through the misty veil to discover what awaits on the mystical isle of Avalon. Explore the mists, discover legendary items of power, bond mythic beasts, hunt for the grail, and prepare for war.

The game ends when you reach the end of the final season (season 2 or 3 depending on your selected game length). Each player gains the Victory Points from the revealed settlement slots of their Faction Board then whoever has the most Victory Points at the end of that Season, wins the game.
