Viking Raid

Set sail into the age of Vikings. Command ruthless longships, raid across icy fjords, and carve your saga in a deep strategic SLG built around the signature loop: scout → strike → retreat. Survey coastlines for weak points, launch lightning-fast invasions, seize resources, then slip away before enemy banners gather. Return stronger, build your settlement, and dominate a living naval war. CORE GAMEPLAY — SCOUT • STRIKE • RETREAT
• Scout: Send ravens and longships to recon ports, monasteries, and rival clans. Track patrol routes, wind, tides, and supply lines to find perfect windows.
• Strike: Hit fast with boarding, torch-and-shield tactics, and siege engines. Breach palisades, burn depots, and capture docks to cut retreats.
• Retreat: Withdraw clean before counterattacks. Evade on open water, use smoke, fog, and storm fronts to break pursuit—then plan the next raid.
BUILD A VIKING POWERHOUSE
• Raise a formidable settlement with halls, forges, shipyards, and sacred groves.
• Craft and upgrade longships—prow emblems, reinforced hulls, firepots, rams, and sail patterns that alter speed and stamina.
• Recruit legendary jarls and shieldmaidens with unique raid skills and naval auras.
• Research Norse techs: runic navigation, cold-iron smithing, berserker drills, and fjord logistics.
DOMINATE NAVAL WARFARE
• Real-time sea lanes with currents, shoals, and hidden inlets for ambush.
• Weather as a weapon: ride squalls, bait foes into reefs, and cloak advances in northern fog.
• Combined-arms assaults from sea-to-shore: longship volleys, beachhead landings, and town-center sieges.
PLUNDER, PROSPER, PREVAIL
• Targeted resource raids—silver, timber, iron, grain—fuel every upgrade and war effort.
• Seasonal campaigns and world events (Jól raids, Thing gatherings, great hunts) reshape the map and rewards.
• Form pacts or break them: coordinate multi-clan strikes or betrayals at dawn.
PVP & PVE THAT REWARD SMART RAIDS
• Outplay rivals with feints, false sails, and night crossings.
• Challenge fortresses, sea serpents, and elite warbands guarding the richest hoards.
• Leaderboards celebrate efficient raiders: fastest landings, cleanest retreats, and biggest hauls.
YOUR SAGA, YOUR STYLE
Will you be the scourge of the monasteries, the master of blockades, or the architect of a northern empire? The path is written by your scouting, your strikes, and your retreats.
Hoist the black sail. The coast is rich. The tide is with you.
