Beginner's Guide

Difficulty
When starting a new campaign you will first have to pick your game difficulty. The difficulty can be changed at any point in the options menu. Sons of Valhalla offers the following difficulty levels:

Gameplay basics
To restore health you need to eat. To restore stamina you need to drink.

There are two types of attacks. Standard attacks do not require Stamina. Power attacks deal more damage but require Stamina.

When blocking use the mouse cursor to change the direction of the shield. The shield must be in the way of an attack to block it.

Allies can be given orders to hold position, attack, follow or shield wall.

City
The first building of any city is the Mead Hall. At it you can upgrade your fighting abilities and some of your equipment for Hack Silver and  Gold Coins. You can also upgrade the mead hall to expand your city and get more building sites.

To the right of the Mead Hall is the Supply Warehouse, where you can restock your equipment.

Warriors trained in the city will automatically run to the last captured gate.
