Hordes of Jarl Hrafnar Sterkrson

You are not the only one who seeks Old Kingdom's treasures. Vikings are your strongest rival in this adventure. Your real journey begins after you learn combat and basic mechanics of the game in training island. You will arrive the first Old Kingdom island and built your headquarters there. But you need to build defences not only for dangers in the island. Vikings will try to seize the island from you. Jarl Hrafnar thinks you are weak. Therefore he sent a small ship of warriors to you first. Everytime you win your defence, he will increase number and strenght of his fleet. This plot is our "tower defence" mechanics, we will talk about this in more detail in future. Viking Units
