Vikings: Scourge of the North

Lead a band of Scandinavian raiders as they sail, raid, trade, and settle across a map stretching from Scandinavia to the Volga and Vinland. Play solo to recruit historical leaders and units, build longships, and add elite huskarls and berserkers to the crew. Resolve voyages and quests via saga and voyage cards that grant special actions in travel and combat, manage ships and resources, and pursue gold, glory, and new colonies. Combat and exploration decisions drive progress across a campaign of four distinct voyages, with options to establish settlements, fight in pitched encounters, and conclude the campaign with ritual events.
