Turn

On your turn, you have a number of options:

Place a Viking (Mandatory)

Capture a Building (Conditional)

Complete a Construction Site (Conditional)

Select a Longship (Optional)

Use a Shield (Optional)

Claim a Trophy (Optional)

After you've done as much as you can or wish to, it's the next player's turn

Place a Viking

Place a Viking on the main board as long as the space is unoccupied AND adjacent to either any other Viking (not just your own) OR adjacent to a Longship

After which, depending on the space, you will gain a resource tile to your personal board (Fjord) which, after choosing an empty space for it, CANNOT be moved later

Capture a Building

There are three building types (Houses, Watchtowers, Castles) and each function slightly differently

If you played your Viking adjacent to a House, take a House tile and place it on your Fjord, you can capture multiple Houses this way if you are adjacent to multiple

If you played your Viking so as to make a route of YOUR Vikings between 2 Watchtowers, you gain 2 Watchtower tiles for your Fjord. Each pairing can only be claimed once, even if you make two routes between them, however each watchtower isn't limited to one route, so if you make a route between Watchtower A & Watchtower B gain 2 Watchtowers, do this again and gain 0 Watchtowers, later make a route between Watchtower C & B and gain 2 Watchtowers, later make a route between C & A, gain 2 more Watchtowers

If you played your Viking so as it is in a conglomeration of 4 of YOUR Vikings, and at least one is adjacent to a Castle, take 1 Castle Tile. Build on this conglomeration so it totals 8 of YOUR Vikings, take a 2nd Castle Tile. Build on this conglomeration so it totals 12 of YOUR Vikings, take a third tile.

Complete a Construction Site

Select a Longship

At end of your turn, you MAY claim a single Longship

If you fail to complete a claimed Longship, it will lose you 5 points

Longships require 3 resources to complete (shown in the main upper area), they then give bonus points to a certain feature (shown in the low banner)

To satisfy the requirements, the resources MUST be adjacent to the Longship's space, if multiple of the same resource is required then multiple of this resource needs to be adjacent

Resources adjacent to multiple Longships will satisfy all adjacent

Once a Longship meets the criteria, flip it to show it has been satisfied

After claiming a Longship, draw a new one to replenish the market

Use a Shield

You can use as many Shields as you wish on your turn, but each Shield is a ONCE per game effect

There's a Shield to play 2 Vikings in one turn

There's a Shield to play your Viking on the same space as an opponent

There's a Shield to gain two resources from your Viking's space instead of the normal one
