I watched all 3 seasons of the TV-series Vikings - cool stuff.
In games the Viking setting is underused.

Nords!

Hrhr… thanks! :)

cool, am hyped, add flavor text

A very intelligent choice in the economic sense. I hope this game will be really successful for them.

Super!

While there were many interesting possibilities this one was surely one of the most promising. Now I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that there'll be a linux version like there was for the first conquistador. (but not Clandestine… :'( )

It sounds interesting, but I don't understand why they're calling it a "sequel" to Expeditions: Conquistador. It doesn't sound like they're connected at all.

I think they do that because it is the game that comes after the other game in the Expeditions series.

Found the gameplay in the first one to be too tedious. Characters getting sick, and other random events nerfing my party and making the game a grind. Good tactical combat, just too difficult making progress in the overland map.

That was the part of the challenge. I guess not for everyone.

I've met the team behind this game. You can Expect an interview article in the near future. As well as an answers to your questions and more….

No plans for a KS at the moment. Glad you enjoyed the trailer and happy to have your support!

I loved the first expeditions conquistador, however i hope they tone down the miss chance in combat.

I thought the combat was very good. The main thing for me to improve would be to have more varied types of units and enemies.

What kinds of miss chances are we talking about here: melee, ranged, both?

I thought the ranged miss chance was a little too much. For example the starting round I once didnt hit anything. Tweak that and the combat would be impeccable.

I'm glad to see this has its own forums, totally deserving of such. As great as the first game was, I'm really looking forward to the Viking take on this.

Ah, yea we have been thinking about that a lot actually, basically in Conquistador there was a dramatic fall off rate after 6 or so hexes practically parabolic in nature for the hit %, we are gonna revamp that so that, among other things, it has a more gradual depreciation curve for Viking.

:) This makes me happy.
