Age of Vikings
Unleash Your Inner Viking!
On the west of Norway comes the island called Iceland, with the mighty ocean washing round it: a land very squalid to dwell in, but noteworthy for marvels, both strange occurrences, and objects that pass belief.
- The Danish History, by Saxo Grammaticus, 12th Century
Why You NEED to Play This Game
You're a Viking hero, with all that embodies. Sail through raging storms to raid monasteries, explore uncharted lands beyond the edge of the world, and fight legendary beasts from Norse mythology. Back home, you’ll keep your homestead thriving in a rough and inhospitable land, face challenges to your community and to your honor, and make a name for yourself, earning your rightful place in the sagas.
Your hero doesn't just adventure—they raid, conquer, even farm—but above all else, they claim their destiny. Die gloriously in battle and earn your place in Valhalla, or live long enough to become a legend that skalds will sing about for generations.
This is the age of the Vikings.
Experience the Saga
"The wind howls across the deck as your longship cuts through the gray waters. Your crew eyes the distant coastline—a monastery sits undefended, its bell tower gleaming with promise of silver and gold. Your hand tightens on your battle-axe as you turn to your sworn companions..."
"Will you charge the beach with berserker fury? Negotiate with the local lord for safe passage? Or perhaps discover that this 'easy raid' guards secrets far darker than you imagined?"
Every session is a chance to prove your worth in the eyes of the gods and your fellow Vikings, whether you're leading a longship crew into battle, standing shield-to-shield in a brutal raid, avenging an insult in a deadly hólmganga duel, or facing down a hideous undead draugr as it emerges from its burial mound to plague the living.
In Age of Vikings, every choice shapes your saga. Your reputation spreads across the known world—as a feared raider, a cunning trader, a wise leader, or a warrior blessed by the gods themselves. The only question is: what kind of legend will you become?
