Viking Spawning question

[generaldurandal]

If I built peirs all the way out as far as I could,
and lined the map line with them,
would it prevent Vikings from spawning from those edges?

Nope! They spawn way outside the actual map area. Dragons do as well. Piers with walls on them will slow them down a great deal though, as they have to destroy the walls before landing. Put some archers or ballistas on your walls, and you'll have them dead before you know it! Makes having a hero and soldiers completely pointless though.

What if you just have a flat pier?
Will they just land on it?
Alowing you to funnel them where ou want?

Well, I have not had that exact situation happen to me yet, but I have had Vikings attempt to invade me from a side completely covered in walls, instead of going a short distance around to my unprotected and wide open areas so I think it is just random where they come from.
