## Description
Check out this exclusive Sovereign expansion, bringing awesome miniatures straight from Gamefound! It includes 4 Bishops and 2 Berserkers ready to join the fray. The Bishops act as spiritual leaders, giving your soldiers an extra boost by allowing them to re-roll their battle dice for a better outcome. Meanwhile, the Berserkers are the brute force for the Danes (requiring the Danelag expansion), entering combat with two beige dice to wreak havoc. However, be warned, these units aren't very durable, possessing only one health point. To deploy these powerful units, you'll first need to unlock them with a specific "Kingdom Tile." This expansion adds a special flavor for those who already enjoy Sovereign and are looking for more tactical options to dominate the battlefield.
