One viking well-versed in combat is a nuisance, a horde of well-versed vikings is an unstoppable fighting force. Vikings have a good health/armor pool and can deal great damage. In terms of speed Vikings carrying a full arsenal of weapons or a giant stone axe may not be able to catch a skirmisher or archer. But with shields, and thrown weapons, they may never need to. Vikings are able to adapt to the battlefield ahead of them, drawing shields against a ranged attack, throwing spears/axes to soften exposed enemies, and finally obliterating enemies with big axes and long spears. To create victories as a viking you must fight like a viking. Unless you are severely outnumbered, a viking should never show his enemy fear or weakness. A retreating viking is often too slow to get away and is considered skirmisher/archer bait.

One viking well-versed in combat is a nuisance, a horde of well-versed vikings is an unstoppable fighting force. Vikings have a good health/armor pool and can deal great damage. In terms of speed, Vikings carrying a full arsenal of weapons or a giant stone axe may not be able to catch a skirmisher or archer. But with shields, and thrown weapons, they may never need to. Vikings are able to adapt to the battlefield ahead of them, drawing shields against a ranged attack, throwing spears/axes to soften exposed enemies, and finally obliterating enemies with big axes and long spears. To create victories as a viking you must fight like a viking. Unless you are severely outnumbered, a viking should never show his enemy fear or weakness. A retreating viking is often too slow to get away and is considered skirmisher/archer bait.

After plundering the grail from weaklings, a viking team is at it's most powerful when they stick together and keep moving. Enemies trying to take the grail are going to try to figure out which way the vikings are going and wait in ambush with kegs, crossbows and special attacks ready. Vikings on the move should be able to crush these "smart" enemies before they pose a real threat. When pillaging treasure vikings are able to use their fighting strength get to the treasure room, take the treasure, and kill anyone who gets in their way. A viking shield can guard a door allowing teammates to escape with treasure very easily. When defending, a viking team should push out of their base and keep their enemies reeling. If the vikings try a turtle defense in their base they will be blown up by pirate kegs or turned into pincushions by archers in good position protected by knights.
