The FIRST edition of the Battle to cause Ragnarok.

While the mythology is interesting, the game mechanics intrigued me.

When you battle, you commit "Heroes" BEFORE you roll the battle. Whether you win, lose, or win by too much, they return to the underworld.

OR, AFTER you roll, you can commit the Norse Elves to increase the roll. The Elves of course are harder to get.

One of the actions in the game is to go to the Underworld and collect more heroes. etc. etc.

Part of the cleverness is the number of "Heroes" are limited. So, you have to use them and lose them in various fights to allow the other players to collect them from the Underworld.

Probably easier to make my own and shrink the size down and modify as I must.

(Second Edition did not intrigue me so.)

Yours,
