About the Game

Welcome to the ancient North that, once the cradle of culture and peace, is now corrupted by magic and inhabited by nasty bandits sowing destruction in airships.

The Buccaneers blame the Vikings who, according to old sagas, once let the magic escape from their hands. The hatred just keeps adding up, leading the antiheros to even fiercer battles.

Fight over the questionable honor of your tribe in airships loaded with cannons, rockets and gunpowder. The success, as well as the bitter defeat, is solely dependent on how well you co-operate with your crew mates. Maybe one day you will conquer the ancient North and find wonderful Atland, the city of scholars, that was once destroyed by no one but your own tribe.

Finding the right kind of battle strategy is not self-evident in the merciless winds and twisted magic of the North...


Highlights

* Heavy emphasis on teamwork. Solo players, time to team up!
* Intense air battles. Airship armadas fighting against each other in berserk frenzy.
* Mythical story. This is what really happened in the darkness of the past.
* Character development. Start as a lousy low-life and turn into a crazy shaman warlord.
* Powered by Unity 4. Game developed by an independent game studio from northern Finland.

So colours and castels make you vikings? I think the peapole that are most vikings are were that they are most releated to em, wich I have no idea wich is and I am to lazy to find out.

Does anyone here know about Tralleborg? Thats the biggest viking castle in the world, and its located in denmark. There is also some other big castels in denmark i dont remember the name on. Also, look at the graphs, the biggest castels were in denmark and the classic colours for vikings is RED and WHITE - like danish! So, no offense to anyone, but we danes are as much vikings (maybe even more) than those finnish people. And to end this message, i understand why the swedish is known as vikings, its because that they have the most square kilometers cost.
