Your village is a smoldering ruin and you are all alone, deep in the cold woods.
They came in the middle of the night riding creatures of death and destruction. Everyone you know and loved is now gone. You managed to kill some of the invaders but were forced to flee into the forest when you found yourself surrounded by dragon riders and certain death.
You are now on the verge of starvation and exhausted from your escape, far from where you one lived, in an unknown place lurking with hungry wild animals. For the time being the enemy seems to have lost your trail but they are sure to continue their search with future scouts and raiding parties.
Your mission is vengeance, your method is death. You must rebuild, arm yourself with powerful lost technology or weapons, and find a way to ally yourself with dragons of your own if you hope to have a chance against the enemies that took so much from you. Odin has kept you alive for a reason and you intend to make full use of the breath you still hold in your lungs. You will carve a bloody trail of ruin before you are reunited with your loved ones in Valhalla. Your enemies must pay for what they have done.
Game Concept:
This is a very hard scenario. You must rely on dragons to aid you in completing hunts, defeating raiders, and obtaining tech or high quality armor and weapons as you are unable to progress past medieval tech research. You also must struggle with a very short growing season and a lack of food. Finally, as nearly no ranged weapons are allowed, you must find a way to keep your pawns healthy and strong while constantly engaging in melee combat.
