Northgard: Brundr & Kaelinn, Clan of the Lynx Review (Wolfie)
Suprised to see this faction as mixed, i'm a relatively green player trying difference clans and seeing what matches my playstyle. Seeing reviews i def hesitated with this one but its for me the best by a long shot. In short they are an excellent early and late game clan and more importantly they are the most fun with alot of depth without the tedious micro management of other factions.
Pros
- An old nag and two lynxes with no cost of iron you can carve decent territory in the early game
- Gain access to powerful bowmen, don't need warriors (will explain later) stand on the edge of territory and snipe, or follow your heroes and cut down enemies before they reach your army
- Gain access to a wonderful resource called fur and become the master game hunter, that lots of beast drop, wolves, bears, monsters, dragons and the bear clans pets a juicy prize. Use it to upgrade a vast tech or sell for decent gold.
- And lastly lets talk about the nice old lady thats supposably the weakest hero in the game. As you progress she can give you many perks including hunting grounds, attract mythical creatures to be hunted and skinned for fur and then devoured the souls of these fallen creatures and raise a spectral horde that not much can stand in the way of every 5 minutes or so. Oh on top of that she summons creature followers essentially becoming some messed up arch necromancer. Yeah they aint weak late game.
Cons
- Probably wont like them if your an animal welfare activisit.
