Game Information / General Notes

There was nothing: Neither sand nor Sea,
Nor cooling Surf:
There was no earth,
Nor upper heaven,
Nor blade of grass-
Only the Great VOID!

The Viking age stretched from AD 800 to 1100, yet the vitality, self
confidence, and reckless courage of these ancient Scandinavians had roots
deep in the centuries before, and they have left inspiration for us long
after.  These were no simple people, nor merely the raiders of English
towns.  Their dragon ships and cargo boats set sail on an extraordinary
adventures.  Journeying by sea, the Vikings reached North America, and by
land as far as Baghdad and the ancient silk routes.  They were farmers,
traders, warriors, seamen, and yes, pirates too.  And with them in their
irresistible surge across Europe they took a belief in gods and goddesses
as entergetic, petulant, subtle, cruel, inventive, and as adventurous as
themselves.
Viking gods shared the world of their mortal legions, from the
wastelands of the Brattehlid in Greenland to the precipitous coasts and
deep water fjords of Norway.  They warred among one another as the families
and tribes of the Vikings warred, and they lived in heavenly domains as
fantastic in their own way as the fire and ice world of the northern seas
with its icebergs and submarine volcanoes.  Here were gods to smile and
toast a drink of mead that as few as 500 men, in a raid on Northumbria in
AD865, could become known as the "Great Heathen Hoard."
Yet these gods saw the end of their extravagant age.  In time they knew
evil must overwhelm the brave but few, and chaos must close the final
curtain across their Viking stage.  This was Ragnarok, the last battle,
the dusk of the gods.  Much mythological energy was expended by Odin and
his minions to forstall this inevitable doom.  In this struggle you will
soon find yourself engaged!  By wit, wiles, and weaponry you must join
the forces of good to hold the end of things at bay.  Good Luck!

Well, I didn't have much time to play around with this one.  Looks
alright to me.  I'd like to check the sound out, but have to wait til I get
it back on my own computer.  There was a 720k version that came with this
but it neglected to work on my computer, so we put the 5.25 version out.
And of course, once again----There's more to come from INC'92!
