    [​IMG]A while ago the Nordic Game Convention in Malmö took place and RPGWatch's Aries100 went there to check out the, at that time, recently announced Expeditions: Viking. Here are his findings from that meeting.

    I asked Alex the questions from Watchers Pladio and Archangel about magic weapons, mythological elements, bears, Nordic gods and skills in the game, as well as choice and consequence and here a summary of his answers: "There will be no magical weapons in this game. However, since this was a time where people believed in magic you might find a weapon that'll boost your characters' morale. These weapons can either be a spear of Odin or a weapon which has bone runes inserted. As such, it will be the characters perception of the weapons that will boost their morale."

    In line with this, the Nordic Gods will not have a direct influence on the gameplay in any way. However, Alex gave an example from Conquistador in which a character went into cave and was exposed to some hallucinogenic fumes and experienced a meeting with a south American god. They might do the same for Viking, but they haven't yet decided how to represent them [the Nordic Gods] in the game.​
