In the world of Dragoria, the realm of Thornshire lies in chaos. A horde of ancient dragons have devastated the land, reducing cities and towns to smouldering ruins. Survivors have retreated into caves, waiting for the chance to rebuild their lives. Thornshire’s Queen has issued a royal decree: the Guilds must restore the realm and surpass its former glory. The capital city of Ferrum’s Ford will rise again, shaped by the finest craftspeople of the Royal Guilds: Road Toll Collectors, Merchants, Gardeners, Wizards, Druids and the City Watch.

Each Guild brings unique expertise to honour the past and forge the future. Amid this noble mission, rivalries simmer. Tempted by power and wealth, the Guilds vie for dominance as they shape the city’s future.

Will the scorched lands thrive again? Will Ferrum’s Ford rise to unmatched splendour? Which Guild will win the Queen’s favour and claim ultimate victory?


Tile Actions:
On your turn, you MUST perform one of two tile actions. The first action is to choose to take and add a new tile to the board. You may select to take a tile from the pool or risk taking the face-down tile from the top of the stack. The second action you may choose would be to rotate a tile on the City's edge to a more self-rewarding configuration. Be warned...your opponents are watching your every move.


Special Actions:
Once per turn you may perform a special action. Special actions allow you place your workers on the board or use your Guilds unique abilities. Choose wisely how you use these abilities as they are limited.


Gold, gold, gold!
You can obtain an additional tile or special action on your turn but there is a cost! Is the reward greater for the investment or the bonus points at the end of the game for unspent gold?


Guild Guides:
The Guild Guides detail each Guild's unique abilities as well as their goal in claiming the Queen's favor! Study all the boards carefully as each is specific to its own Guild.

Kedic Winks and I will be with Outset Media and Cheatwell Games launching Guildlands at Gen Con in August 2025!
We're immensely happy and excited to be demoing the game on the Outset Media stand to new players. Could this be you?

If you're attending the convention, you can sign-up beforehand to play the game with the Kedric and myself, and if you buy the game, we'll be happy to sign your copy. 



 EXCLUSIVE
MESSENGERS
EXPANSION!

As well as signed copies of the game, everyone who buys Guildlands at Gen Con, will recieve an EXCLUSIVE CON EXPANSION! Yes, you'll be able to play with an extra guild - the Messengers. 

As the Messengers' Guild, you're the city's postal service and you require the straightest roads through the city to deliver the mail in the quickest time possible. Not only does this Guild have two custom worker tokens, you'll have two custom mail ponies too!

Can you build the roads straight to maximise your scoring? Or will the other guilds become frustrated and sabotage your plans?

We took our demo copy of Guildlands to the UK Games Expo, as well as my local games club, to show it off! Players were happy!
