Plot[]

Main article: Storyline

While being able to play in «sandbox» mode, Viking Conquest also grants the player the ability to follow a storyline.
The story begins with the player character waking aboard the Woden Ric, a merchant ship. Having seemingly forgotten everything, the player asks the captain to refresh their memory, after which it becomes apparent that the Woden Ric is transporting them and their mother.

After the Woden Ric is attacked by the Danish Viking, Sven Bull-Neck, the player will have to locate their mother, who has disappeared, taking the player all across northern Europe, Scandinavia and the British Isles.

In With Fire & Sword[]

In Mount&Blade: With Fire & Sword, religions are likewise implied, but are not a mechanic per say. Most factions and characters have a religion.

• Roman Catholic Christianity — the religion of the Polish Commonwealth, that means it’s the religion of its people, the most prominent of whom are Poles and Lithuanians.
  • Victor de la Buscador is Spanish, therefore he is likely Roman Catholic as well.
  • Jaques de Clermont and his companions, Cardinal Mazarin, D’Artagnan, the Queen of France, and «young Louis» are all French, therefore Roman Catholic.
• Orthodox Christianity — the religion of The Cossack Hetmanate, the Muscovite Tsardom, and of Transylvanian Vlachs.
  • Tepes is Vlach, and a descendent of Vlad the Impaler, so he is Orthodox Christian.
  • Other followers from the Hetmanate and Tsardom are also likely to be Orthodox Christians.
• Lutheran Protestant Christianity — the religion of the Kingdom of Sweden

  Karlsson and Ingri are Swedes, therefore likely adherents of Lutheranism.

  .

• Islam — the religion of the Crimean Khanate.
• Folk Religion — Although Oksana is originally from the Cossack Hetmanate, her backstory implies that she doesn’t adhere to Orthodox Christianity and instead practices a form of folk-religion that involves soothsaying and healing.

Additionally, nation-specific mercenary troops also most likely practice these religions, or others.

Weaponsmiths[]

Master Weaponsmiths can give a good range of weapons, covering every weapon choice other than crossbows, shields and javelins. The known choices are:

• The «Widow Maker», the best non-unique 1-handed sword in the game. Costs 13,000 peningas.
• The «Ray», the absolute best long spear in the game, with the best damage and weapon reach (though not the best speed). Costs 8,000 peningas.
• The «Frankish Axe», the best 1/2-handed axe in the game, however it is still topped by the Goidelic champion sword, as neither can be used on horseback, but the latter has faster swing speed, more damage, and a longer weapon reach — and is still a 1/2-hander. Costs 11,000 peningas.

Their mystery choices (10,000 peningas each) are:

• A Langseax. The worst result, as these can be found in most Viking loot piles, and so is a waste of 10,000 peningas.
• A 2-handed axe called the «Woodcutter», unlike the Troll’s Axe, requires only 11 strength, but deals 8 less damage (for a total of 42c). Effective if you don’t use a shield, but otherwise fairly useless.
• The Featured Longbow. The most powerful bow in the game, it requires 4 power draw and does 28c damage base.
• The Laufi. A fairly good sword, bridging the gap between the Royal Sword and the Widow Maker.

Cultures[]

Main article: Cultures

Viking Conquest introduces six historically accurate cultures.

Norsemen

The Norsemen are pagan peoples with a Germanic heritage who inhabit Scandinavia, comprising the realms of Northvegr and Danmark. Their naval superiority allows them to raid the coasts of the other kingdoms, but despite their reputation as blood-thirsty looters, the Vikings are excellent traders that have begun to colonize the frozen islands of the North Sea.

The Great Heathen Army, led by the sons of Ragnar Lodbrok, have invaded the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms and now threaten the British Isles. They are skilled archers and, although in during expeditions they send out mounted scouts, in battles they dismount to fight on foot. The Norse shield-wall is considered almost impossible to overcome.

Frisians

The Frisians are the inhabitants of an important trading region along the southeastern coast of the North Sea, from the north of Frankia to the border of Danmark. Defeated by the Franks, their country is now under the rule of a Frankish governor. The Frisians have maintained cultural and commercial ties with the Anglo-Saxons from the other side of the English Channel. However, their art of war is mainly influenced by the military innovations of the Carolingian empire and so their armies have a good balance between cavalry and infantrymen.

Anglo-Saxons

Having migrated some centuries ago to Britannia from continental Europe, the Angles and Saxons have been contesting with the Britons for control of the island. Now this hegemony is threatened by the Vikings, which have conquered their northeastern territories. The Anglo-Saxons are fierce warriorsinmelee, but the naval superiority of the Norsemen makes it difficult for them to wage war against the greater mobility of the Norse armies.

Angles and Saxons have been historically divided in seven kingdoms, endlessly warring amongst themselves; the most notable among them being West Seaxe, Mierce, Northhymbre and East Engle. Now some of their rulers simply server as puppet kings appointed by the Norsemen, but this common enemy is making them conscious of their own identity, and perhaps this vacuum in leadership could pave the way for a King to rise.

Britons

During the collapse of the Roman Empire in Britannia, several successor states emerged to face the Germanic peoples who invaded the island. Maintaining their Romano-British heritage, the Celtic-speaking natives resisted the Angles and Saxons in the fringe areas of the west, like Brycheiniog, Alt Clut, Cornubia and Glywyssing. The kings of the Britons tried to link their rule with the old imperial order, but the Roman military organization is all but lost and their armies are mostly tribal recruits. However cavalry plays a significant role in their military tradition and the Welsh are renowned archers.

Picts

For many ages, the Celts from the North of Britannia have protected and maintained their independence from invading forces of Romans, Angles of Northhymbre and Gaels from across the Irish sea. Two decades ago, Kenneth MacAlpin, King of Dál Riata, defeated the Picts and created the kingdom of Alban. During recent years, MacAlpin has faced the Viking raids over his domains and the increasing hostility of the Norse kingdom of Laithlind.

The Pictish armies are mainly composed of light infantry, very maneuverable as skirmishers in mountainous terrain, but they can also fight effectively in melee. The aristocracy forms a reputed cavalry and missile weapons, like bows and javelins, play an important role in battle.

Gaels

The Celtic peoples emerged in Hibernia have expanded to Dál Riata in the north of Britannia and the Isle of Man. Hibernia was historically divided into five Gaelic kingdoms, which later became Uladh, Laigin, Mumain, Mide, Connachta, Aileach and Osraige. The rulers of these territories have been struggling for supremacy over the island and now the Norsemen are using this ancient rivalry of the Gaelic dynasties in their own interests.

The most common type of conflict among the Gaels is the cattle raid, and so the backbone of Gaelic armies is typically made up of lightly armed infantry who fight as skirmishers, hurling missiles before a ferocious charge into close combat.

In Viking Conquest[]

In Viking Conquest, religions are a game mechanic. They affect NPCs’ and kingdoms’ attitudes towards the player and towards each other. Additionally, priests of either religion can be spoken to for certain services such as preaching, which can increase troop morale. The player can convert between religions, and may also wish to make donations to priests in exchange for favour with said religion that can grant access to special troops or other benefits. Also, having a high enough favour with the chosen religion can give gameplay bonuses to the player. For example, a high enough favour with the Norse religion can add bonus points to the player’s combat skills. Minor religious buildings can be built in fiefs in order to convert the population to the desired religion, which increases loyalty and decreases the chance of assassination attempts.

Featured religions

There are two primary religions featured in the game that can be joined:

• Christianity (Roman Catholicism) — the religion of most kingdoms in Britain and northern Europe. It worships ‘God’. Its clergy are called ‘Priests’. ‘Monks’ and ‘Abbots’ are a special category of faithful that dedicate themselves to worship without being clergy. Its buildings are called ‘Monasteries’. The player can learn to read Latin and can buy wine at monasteries. Additionally, they can adopt this religion and can hire an Abbot or Monk to preach to their troops for a morale boost, they can also be hired to the player’s court. Priests are a standalone unit in the Pictish troop-tree.
• Norse Paganism — this religion is practised largely by the Scandinavian kingdoms as well as certain others around the map, like in some northern kingdoms in Britain. This religion primarily worships ‘Odin’ or ‘Wotan’, but other deities such as ‘Thor’ and ‘Loki’ are mentioned and have dedicated locations. The player can make sacrifices to the Norse gods at Hofs — the religion’s temples — in order to gain their favour. With enough favour, they can hire Berserkrs, a powerful warrior-troop. Likewise, the local clergy — called Gothi — can be spoken to in order to adopt this religion; they can be hired to preach to the troops for a morale bonus, and a Gothi can be hired to the player’s court.

There are a few religions that cannot be joined, and can be interacted with only to a minor degree:

• Religio Romana — the religion of the Old Roman and his son Caio. It is only mentioned a few times during dialogues, but cannot be otherwise interacted with.
• Celtic Paganism — the religion of non-Christian and non-Norse pagan Celts and/or Picts. The game treats it as paganism, although it is different from Norse Paganism. It likewise cannot be joined. Dwywei

  There are also several locations around the map, most prominently in the British Isles that are connected to the Celtic religion. One such location has the player fight a large group of bandits for a treasure. Another such location acts like a Hof where the player may sacrifice prisoners to the Celtic deities, although the local priest himself admits that the cult’s practices are not necessarily accurate to the historical Celtic/Pictish religious practices.

  is an adherent, with possible others.

Armourers[]

Master Armourers only make heavy armour, however they do give some of the best heavy armour in the (non-campaign) game, with only the two best armours (the Scale Lorica, which can be found in the mystic circle, Odin’s Cave and the «strange ruins», and the Bear Lorica) unavailable to them. Their known choices are:

• A Common Byrnie. despite the price and description, this is a fairly terrible choice, as it is a thoroughly average piece of heavy armour. Costs 17,000 peningas.
• A Noble Helm. A black steel helm, this is the second strongest helm in the game. Costs 9,000 peningas.
• A Hersir Helm. A polished steel helm with a gold trim, this is the strongest helm in the game, the choice between this and the Noble Helm is essentially dependent on budget and which one you prefer, rather than stats. Costs 12,000 peningas.

Their mystery choices (19,000 peningas each) are:

• An «elite norse helm with leather». Not a great result, as it gives less armour than either the Noble or Hersir Helm, but costs 10,000 or 7,000 peningas more (respectively).
• An Elite Saxon Halsberg. A fairly good result, it gives good body and leg armour.
• A Wolf Lorica. If you manage to get this, then you’re very lucky, It gives very good body and leg armour, and even some head armour — as well as looking good, being a black mail shirt with a wolf pelt cape.
• A Bear Byrnie. A black mail shirt with a bear pelt cape, its armour rating is topped only by the Bear Lorica (which has only 1 more body & leg armour). This is the best result from the mystery choice and well worth the 19,000 peningas spent on it.
