Description

ARMOURY

Worth 1 LOOT Victory Point.

BERSERKER

Cancel ANY action (Play at any time). Action cards have an 'A' in the corner.

Berserker cards can be played at any time, by any player, to cancel any one Action, and do not count towards the number of Actions a player may take on their turn. The player whose Action was cancelled is not allowed to play another Action instead of the cancelled Action. The cancelled Action card is placed on the discard pile. Berserker cards can also be played to cancel other Berserker cards. You must play your Berserker card before you know the outcome of an action. For example, if you want to cancel a raid, you must play it before the raid takes place. In other words, you are not allowed to wait and see if the raid is successful, and then use a Berserker to cancel the raid. A raid cancelled by a Berserker Card does not count as an unsuccessful raid.

BURIED TREASURE

Worth 1 LOOT Victory Point whilst it is in your hand. Is not included if your LOOT is raided. Can be used to win the game or to buy items from the Market. You do not discard the card when you use it as a Victory Point. Nor does it count as playing an Action, which means that using the card cannot be cancelled by a Berserker.

CACHE

Worth 2 LOOT Victory Points. You must already have 1 LOOT Victory Point in order to buy this card.

DRAKKAR

Worth 2 NAVY Victory Points. You must already have 1 NAVY Victory point in order to buy this card.

EFFICIENCY

NAVY, CLAN and LOOT cards cost 1 less resource when buying from the Market. The player chooses which resource is not needed, and it can be a different resource for each card that is bought. Efficiency can be combined with other cards,  which means that items may be bought without any resources at all.

FENRIR

2 less Raid Protection cards when you are raiding. 4 more Raid Protection cards when you are being raided. If you are raiding, you must play this card at the same time as the raid card. If you are being raided, play this card after the raid has been declared. Fenrir does not count towards the number of Actions a player may take on their turn.
If you play Fenrir when you are raiding, and another player then plays a Berserker card, the Berserker only cancels Fenrir and not the raid itself. To cancel the raid as well, another Berserker would need to be played.

This card can be combined with other cards that allow Market cards to be bought for less resources (for example Chief cards). It is up to you which resources are not needed. As this card is an Action, you may also buy a card as normal from the Market during your turn (at the normal cost).

MIDSUMMER MADNESS

STORMY SEAS

As soon as this card appears: All players pass their hand of cards to the player on their right. Abilities are passed to the player on the left. All players draw 2 extra cards. Play passes to next player. Stormy Seas cannot be stopped. A player cannot win during Stormy Seas. In other words, you must complete all the instructions on the card before a winner can be declared.

SURGE OF STRENGTH

If you lose a card in a raid, you have a 1 in 2 chance to win it back. Mix the lost card with 1 Raid Protection card and try to pick it out. If you get it, you have won it back. A raid is not fully complete until the Surge of Strength Ability has been resolved.

The Victory Points are therefore not gained by the raiding player - and so cannot be counted towards victory - until Surge of Strength has been resolved.

Using Surge of strength is not the same as raiding, therefore neither Leadership nor Chief abilities can be used against Surge of Strength.

THOR'S REVENGE

YGGDRASIL

When you get this card, place it on the discard pile and draw an extra card. At the end of your turn, shuffle the discard pile back into the Viking draw pile.

If Yggdrassil is at the bottom card of the deck, and the player drasw this as their first or 2nd card, then shuffle immediately and draw cards so the player has drawn the correct number of cards for that turn.

The function of Yggdrasil is to give new life to the deck, and is not intended to hinder a player's options.
