In this arguably simple game, you are in command of a viking longship and its crew of 30 warriors.  Choose which location you want to raid:



The Red Circle area on the largest island is a bustling town, full of loot and valuables.  Also, lots of guards.

The Red Diamond on the smallest island is a monastery.  It has less treasure, but the priests aren't great in number, nor as martially inclined as your men. 

The Red Square is a poor, poor village, the least amount of treasure, but also only a pathetic excuse for a militia.  However, the rocky crags to the north shield it from direct landing assault.

The brown thing with a white bar?  That's your longboat.  It would be best if you could use a paint program to chart the exact course you want your ship to take.

This is partly a test game, to see if a game idea that I have concerning vikings is okay.  So please, give critique whenever you think it's neeed.

Be warned, I won't actually draw anything complex, this will be a strategy game ( sort of ). 

[Dragor23]

Raid the monastery!

These puny christians! Burn it! BURN IT TO DEATH! 

Also, rape them.

...Unless they're monks. When they're nuns? Rape 'em, and take them home.

[NRDL]

Would you like to land directly next to them, or at the opposite end of the island? 

[Dragor23]

Directly next to them.

Fast in, fast out. Grab as much as you can.

[NRDL]

Sailing as quick as you can to the western edge of the island, your men land, eager for blood. 

You assemble your men outside the western wing, where the monks are tending to their garden.  The walls are rather tall, and the gate is locked.  Luckily, vikings have BUILDING_DESTROYER, so smashing down the gate won't be a problem. 



Yes, the blue ones are your men, the purple one being you.  If the purple one dies, game over.  Forgive me if you expected more manly representations of your viking wrath. 

The orange dots are the monks, obviously, and they appear to be running for help.  There are probably more inside, how'd ya wanna handle this? 

[micelus]

Going from the seemingly wooden walls and those black squiggly lines, I say...we chop through the gates, take a monk prisoner, and kill the rest. No raping unless the men get...discontent.

[NRDL]

You guys are all assuming that the monks are helpless...

[Dragor23]

They should be...

NEVERMIND!

Bash the door in, kill as many as possible, grab the abbot, plunder, leave.

FAST!

[NRDL]

Okay. 

Sending in two axemen, you quickly bash down the door.



Going past the garden, you reach a walled corridor, with a paved and worn stone floor. 



There are seven monks, behind two overturned wheelbarrows.  The monks are armed with clubs and pitchforks.  The one at the center speaks.

"Begone heathens!  Though we may die today, you shall not acquire the treasures that lay within, that which rightfully belongs to God!  Even now, our brothers are beginning to throw the jewels and gold into the sea."

Hmph.  That could be a problem.  Whaddya gonna do? 

[Dragor23]

Wat, wat, WAT!?

Split your troop into 15 x 2 troops.

The first troop should burst through the wheelbarrows

the other troop get to the longboat, sail to the other lunatic monks, that THROW away treasures and kill 'em!

[borno]

They should be...

NEVERMIND!

Bash the door in, kill as many as possible, grab the abbot, plunder, leave.

FAST!

We still need that abbot. Use him as a hostage. If they don't stop dumping TREASURE, torture the abbot (By chopping off various limbs, starting with feet and working way upwards), and send some men out to get the people dumping TREASURE

Also,

Spoiler: Our journey so far: (click to show/hide)

[NRDL]

"Abbot, tell me where the treasure is being taken, or I will introduce you to pain such as you have never known."

"Try it, heathen."

With a mighty roar, you and your men charge forward, pushing back the barricade, and killing a few men with the collision.






That's enough for me today.  I'll do the next turn tomorrow.  Or maybe in a few hours, don't expect it too soon. 

[NRDL]

Anyone still interested?  Or is everyone just waiting for me to finish the sequence? 

[Dragor23]

Punish this puny monks!

[NRDL]

You walk over to the abbot. 

"Now, tell me where the treasure is, before I slaughter the rest of your brothers."

"NEVER!!!"

What do you intend to do with him, and the rest of his living brethren ( The ones with black dots on them are dead ).
