Could I play as an Irish monk who beat you all there, only to have his serene retreat ruined by your barbaric nonsense? :p
 
So it's going to be like The Family, mechanic wise?

Order wise, yes it is. However, a few of the mechanics will be different. One thing that will be similar is that there will be classes, and maybe some traits too.

Time to make myself a kingdom in Britain.

Spain is mine!

More Anglo-Saxon loot for me. :)

Um, sorry, but this is called a Vinland Viking game. While we will definitely include trade to those regions, and quite possible a few raiding mechanics, most of the events in Europe will be off screen. Most of the mechanics will focus on the New World, as well as Iceland.

Yes. I expect some hilarious ICs though! ;)

Look, I am not the picky type of Viking. Plunder English natives, looting American natives. I don`t care. :)

American natives?
Eh?

Did they evolve to sentience in America?

Thought not.

They are merely earlier invaders, a previous wave of travelers in a string of invaders stretching back thousands of years.
And much like all invasive species, they get supplanted by those arriving later who are better prepared to contest the land.
