Northgard is a real time strategy game that really makes you roll with the punches as you colonize territory in some very harsh lands Viking lands. Between enemy invasions, harsh winters, or rats invading your food stores - you'll have to think about every decision carefully.
You'll start the game with one of your hardest choices - a clan. Each clan has specific bonuses (whether it be to military, resource gathering or currency) which can make or break you, depending on your strategy. From there, you have to colonize the land and build both resource-gathering buildings, as well as military establishments to defend yourself from monsters or rivals. Depending on your victory conditions, you may be after conquest, fame, or lore, so plan appropriately.
A new clan unlocked with the most recent update, the Clan of the Boar, features some very strong starting bonuses. Instead of having a Healer's Hut, it will be called the Mender's Hut, and when the services of the Mender are not required, they can produce +2 Lore. This is extremely helpful for those who might not be waging a fight constantly and want to go after some lore bonuses (especially if that's the victory condition!). One of the other major benefits of this clan is the Under The Stars perk, where you get +2 to max population for each additional tile. More people may mean more consumption, but it also means more workers and warriors, so this is a great advantage.
The developers also took some time to speak about what they plan for updates in the coming months. In December, they will be introducing dedicated servers for multiplayer to alleviate some issues players had with lag and disconnections. They'll also be adding in some features to make multiplayer more enjoyable for everyone (replacing a lost player with an AI) and scaled appropriately (adjusting difficulty for each AI). For players who enjoy the solitary environment, fear not! A long awaited piece of the game is being brought in January 2018 in the form of a campaign mode. Players will be in the boots of a Viking warchief with hopes of colonizing Northgard.
With these two major updates coming, the developers spoke about a full release being (optimistically) placed around February-March. This release is not set in stone, but the developers plan on tackling every bug in between the next few updates to make sure the game is polished and ready for players to take head on.
