Sons of Valhalla - a handful of details
If you haven't been keeping up with the news about Sons of Valhalla, remember that the game, overseen by the publisher of Manor Lords and Against the Storm, Hooded Horse, will take us to the Viking era. The main character will be Thorald Olavson, who sets out in pursuit of his father's killer - Jarl Valgard. Besides seeking revenge on the killer, the main character needs to save his abducted fiancée, who appears to be very important to the English king.
In Sons of Valhalla we watch the action from the side. Directly controlling the protagonist, we will need to expand our settlement and also arrange attacks on enemy outposts to secure a constant supply of resources. As the game progresses, the challenges will get harder, so we need to focus on developing our character and his units.
