Adventures
Adventures are the quickest way to earn Gold, Experience and Land early in the game. Each adventure has different requirements such as Clan size, Warriors, Weapons and Energy.
Drop Items
Some adventures will randomly award special "drop" items, such as Weapons and Warriors. Some items are easy to get, other ones are not.
Quest Achievements
You will be awarded an achievement for completing each quest a certain number of times.
Ask For Help
You are allowed to ask for help on any adventure once every 22 hours. Each time a friend helps you will be rewarded with Gold and EXP. A maximum of 6 friends can help each time help is asked for.

Battle
During a battle, every Chieftain of your Clan is armed with the most powerful items/Weapons you own and can each bring in a certain number of Warriors before the battle results are calculated. For example, if you have 2 Chieftains in your Clan, you should try to own at least 10 Weapons and 20 Warriors or you will not be maximizing the use of your Chieftains. Each Chieftain of your Clan can hold 5 Weapons, and lead 10 Warriors to battle.
Battle Balance
To balance the game, your Clans' effectiveness is limited by your level as well as by the number of Chieftains you have to lead your Warriors. Although transparent in the game, a level 1 Clan with 10 Chieftains will only have a slight advantage over a level 1 Clan with 5 Chieftains. In later stages of the game, however, larger Clans carry a significant advantage over smaller Clans.
Warrior Deaths
At higher levels clan warriors can be killed during battle, the weakest warriors in your clan will be the first to die.

Bounties
A number will appear by the "Battle" menu link when a "Bounty" has been placed on another Clan leader in the game. A bounty can be viewed by potentially hundreds of thousands of other players all at the same time, so successfully making a kill on from the bounty is not an easy task. Anyone can add any other Clan Chieftains in the game to the bounty if they have enough money.
Beware of the Bounty!
Huge bounties on the bounty list usually mean that the target is a very powerful Clan Chieftains. Attacking them opens up any level player to retaliation attacks from that user. For this reason, lower level Clan Chieftains should be wary of who they decide to mess with on the bounty list.
How is my bounty cost determined?
The minimum amount of Gold required to place another Chieftain on the bounty list is determined by how big their Empire is. Having a bigger Empire makes you a much higher profile target.

Rival Clans
Rival Clans is a place to view your most hated rivals, and provides all the options available to seek revenge!

Counter Attacks
Counter Attacks can be set on other clans for a cost. If a counter attack has been set on a clan, the next time they attack you (if with-in 30 days or so) you will catch them off guard and destroy them in battle.
Bounty Trap
If you have someone constantly bountying you then the bounty trap is for you. Set a bounty trap on a user and the next time they try to bounty you will result in death for them and a kill for you!

Empire
The Empire is the lifeblood of any Viking Clan, and the more of it you control, the more powerful you can become. Vikings who own many buildings can earn huge incomes with which they can buy any standard item in the game.
Why do I have negative income?
Chances are, you overspent on warriors and weapons that require upkeep. Sell off your biggest upkeep items before they get repossessed from you, and start building up your clan once your income can support it. If you keep a negative income you will LOSE Warriors and Weapons once your money runs out!

Clan
At a glance, Clan lets you see all the Warriors and Weapons you have accumulated in the game, and enables you to buy and sell them at will. Some advanced items are not available until you reach higher levels.
Upkeep
Higher level Warriors and Weapons have an upkeep, if you cannot afford to pay the hourly upkeep on items you will lose them!
Warriors / Weapons Missing?
Regular Items can be lost 2 ways: Warriors can be killed in battle at the higher levels and Warriors/Weapons with Upkeep will be lost if hourly Upkeep is greater than Income. Drop, Power Up and God Items will not be lost in battles or if Upkeep is too high.
Special Items
Special Items are those acquired through adventures, power up purchases and from The Gods. Special Items are used by your Chieftains but can also be used to arm yourself to give you a stronger attack and defense in Battle.

The Gods
If you feel one of these "offers" has taken advantage of you, is unsafe, or spams your email box or something, please report it to us. We do not choose the offers, but do have the power to remove them from the list.
Missing Points From a Completed Offer?
On The Gods page, visit the link that says "View Offer Status". There is a company that runs all those offers, and they can help you directly. We are unable to help with favor points unless they tell you that they were issued. A bug with favor points is possible but so far quite rare. Sometimes there is a slight delay while the offer is confirmed on their end, and the offer will often specify how long it takes.
Did all of the above and still missing your points?
Just message us with the offer filled out, # of points missing, and paste some confirmation of awarded points. We will check the records and take care of it for you!

Chieftains
Your Chieftains are one of the most important aspects of the game, and exist not just as a way to help get your friends involved, but also as a fully functional part of the game. Each of your Chieftains will be individually armed with whatever items you have available in your inventory and lead your Warriors during a battle. To balance the game, your Clans' effectiveness is limited by your level as well as by the number of Chieftains you have to lead your Warriors. In later stages of the game, however, larger Clans carry a significant advantage over smaller Clans.
Inner Circle
Reward your closest friends by adding them to your Inner Circle. Every time you win in Battle, Complete an Adventure or Claim a Bounty, your Inner Circle Chieftains receive a percentage of your earnings! If a Chieftain adds you to their Inner Circle, you will receive a percentage of their earnings. You must check back at least every 3 days or earnings will be lost.
Berserk Boosts
Berserk Boosts are another way to reward Chieftains in your Inner Circle. Berserk Boosts increase the attack strength of a Clan for a limited time. You can send 1 Berserk Boost to each Inner Circle Chieftain once every 24-hrs. Multiple Berserk Boosts from the same Chieftain used at the same time will have the same affect as 1 Berserk Boost.

Profile
Your profile represents your character in the game and has various attributes which can be upgraded as your level increases. A tally of stats is also recorded throughout the entire game, accrediting you with various achievements.
Level Up Attribute Refills
Each time you reach a new level, you will receive bonus health, energy and stamina from the Gods. For lower levels, they will be refilled completely, for the higher levels they will receive a maximum of 1000 health, 300 energy and 30 stamina up to your characters maximum.
Arm Yourself!
Arm yourself with up to 3 weapons from your special items for an increase in attack and defense strength during Battles!
Axe Slap!
Say hello to your rivals with a good old Axe Slap to the face. You can Axe Slap a rival once every 1 hour, Axe Slaps cost 1 Stamina and will decrease your rivals health but not your own. But be careful, Axe Slapping higher level players will open you up for retaliation for a limited time.

Hoard
The Hoard is a place to safehouse your Gold so it cannot be stolen during a raid by another Clan. Of course, it is a risk for the keepers to protect your Gold, so it comes with a price. Access to the Hoard is available on every page by clicking on the "Gold" or "Hoard" links in the top right of the header.

Fast Leveling in Viking Clan
While there are several ways to level up, there are many ways that are far more efficient than others. What i would recommend is First: Join an add-me group (Viking Clan Add Me and Viking Clan 500+ in Under an Hour, are two that I use). Next, spend the majority of your skill points on Health, Stamina, and Attack. Defense isnt necessary because usually you just heal and move on, and I only recommend having enough energy to do about 5-10 of an adventure before running out of energy. Adventures aren't a great source of xp anyway. Always remember to do plenty of boss battles, as these give you fast xp and relatively good items. But the best source of xp is simply winning battles. You will receive more xp for defeating clans closer to your size, but I generally just eliminate everyone that is my size or smaller until all that is left are the extremely large clans, which I leave alone. Then, just give the list an hour or so to refresh and repeat the process. Hope this helps!
