1066: Year of Viking Destiny Steam Achievements<\/h1>\n

The Viking Destiny Scenario for Civilization 5<\/a> comes with 4 playable civilizations and 9 Steam Achievements. 3 for winning the scenario on Emperor, Immortal and Deity difficulty. 4 for winning the scenario with every playable faction. And finally 2 achievements tied to specific actions in the game. Below you’ll get an overview of the achievements and playable factions. For detailed strategy guides please refer to the specific posts.<\/p>\n

You can do all achievements in 4 playthroughs, if you play on the required levels of difficulty. I started with Anglo-Saxon England<\/a> on Emperor, played Normandy<\/a> and Denmark<\/a> on Immortal and finally also won playing Norway<\/a> on Deity.<\/p>\n

All guides linked here are much less detailed than the usual strategy guides. This is purely due to the fact, that the Year of Viking Destiny scenario is less complex and shorter than most other scenarios.<\/p>\n

Before you get started with this scenario, you might want to have a look at the Viking Destiny Scenario Map<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

Pillage, Then Burn<\/h2>\n

\"Pillage,Unlocked: 10 Jan 2014 @ 9:18pm<\/p>\n

Pillage 9 Farms on the same turn<\/p>\n

This might very well be one of the trickiest Steam Achievements of this scenario. Not because it’s particularly difficult to pillage farms, but because it’s difficult to find 9 of them on the entire map. I did this playing Denmark and pillaged farms in England and Normandy.<\/p>\n

UPDATE: A reader of this blog provided a nice shortcut to doing this achievement, which is also much more reliable! Check it out<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This was their Finest Hour<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"ThisUnlocked: 7 Jan 2014 @ 9:33pm<\/p>\n

Win as Anglo-Saxon England (any difficulty)<\/p>\n

As you can see below, I made both this and the “You the Conqueror” achievement in one game. A good choice, because playing Anglo-Saxon England is the hardest faction to chose in the Viking Destiny scenario. All 3 other nations will try to conquer you, but defending and eventually throwing them back is more than possible on Emperor difficulty. Here’s my guide for playing Anglo-Savon England on Deity<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You The Conqueror<\/h2>\n

\"YouUnlocked: 7 Jan 2014 @ 9:33pm<\/p>\n

Win scenario on Emperor (any civ)<\/p>\n

See above – done with Anglo-Saxon England in the first playthrough.<\/p>\n

Fetchez la Vache!<\/h2>\n

\"FetchezUnlocked: 7 Jan 2014 @ 10:11pm<\/p>\n

Build a motte and bailey improvement<\/p>\n

This improvement is unique to Normandy, so it can only be done playing them. Other than that, there’s nothing to it. Just play them to win – you’ll build one or more motte and bailey improvements anyway!<\/p>\n

Time to Stitch a Tapestry<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"TimeUnlocked: 8 Jan 2014 @ 10:33pm<\/p>\n

Win as Normandy (any difficulty)<\/p>\n

Again, compare the timestamp of this one and the one below: I made both this and the “Surviving Domesday” achievement in one game. Playing Normandy on Immortal is fun and a bit challenging, but still far from frustrating. Plan your attack well and crush Anglo-Saxon England between you and the Danish. Take care the Danish don’t conquer London before you!<\/p>\n

Again, in my endeavor to beat this scenario on Deity with all factions, here’s how to win on Deity playing Normandy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Surviving Domesday<\/h2>\n

\"SurvivingUnlocked: 8 Jan 2014 @ 10:33pm<\/p>\n

Win scenario on Immortal (any civ)<\/p>\n

See above – done with Normandy in the second playthrough.<\/p>\n

Odin’s Chosen Warrior<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"Odin'sUnlocked: 10 Jan 2014 @ 8:51am<\/p>\n

Win as Denmark (any difficulty)<\/p>\n

I did this on Immortal difficulty as well, winning in the first attempt. Your base of operation is East England and you’ll want to advance not too far North not to mess with Norway at first. Eventually you’ll need some Norman cities to build your shrines though, as Anglo-Saxon England will have lost most it’s cities until the end of the game. Click here for the guide to win on Deity playing Denmark<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Purple People Eaters<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"PurpleUnlocked: 12 Jan 2014 @ 4:21pm<\/p>\n

Win as Norway (any difficulty)<\/p>\n

This was challenging and a close call in the end. Advancing on England from the North means capturing some City States first. Some units from your Scottish Island cities will have to march a looong way before entering battle, but you’ll need everything.<\/p>\n

In the end, dominance on England was so strong, that I even captured one Danish city.<\/p>\n

Update: On my 2nd playthrough as Norway I captured almost all of England and completely conquered and defeated Denmark. Read all about it in the guide to win on Deity playing Norway<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Surviving Ragnarok<\/h2>\n

\"SurvivingUnlocked: 12 Jan 2014 @ 4:21pm<\/p>\n

Win scenario on Deity (any civ)<\/p>\n

See above – done with Norway in the fourth playthrough.<\/p>\n

\n

Year of Viking Destiny Strategy<\/h1>\n

The “1066: Year of Viking Destiny” scenario for Civ 5 has research, happiness and religion disabled. This is purely about warfare. It’s also great for me, because it’s less effort to write a guide \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Battles and the random seed<\/h2>\n

It seems battles in Viking Destiny are a good bit more unpredictable than in normal games of Civilization 5. The battle-preview you get when mouse-overing on the potential attack is not always correct. Sometimes you destroy an enemy unit, whereas the preview predicted it would survive. Other times you deal a lot less damage than planned for. Deal with it – reload if you must. I made all achievements, including the deity ones without excessive reloading (compared to other Civ 5 Scenarios<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Terrain and promotions<\/h2>\n

I exclusively gave my units promotions for battles in open terrain. Meaning “Accuracy” for ranged units and “Shock” for melees. Most of Britain is open terrain, with the exception of some forests in the south and around Nottingham. Also: Don’t underestimate the power of instant heal. In this scenario time is of essence – a unit healed instantly can make a difference when it comes to capturing an enemy city one turn earlier or later (or playing as Anglo-Saxons, coming to the rescue).<\/p>\n

To further refine your Year of Viking Destiny strategy – have a look at the Viking Destiny scenario map<\/a>. It’s not only nice to look at, but also helps see the road layout and plan your strategy.<\/p>\n

\"Civilization<\/a><\/p>\n

Domesday Shire Court and the Domesday Book<\/h2>\n

To win the scenario you need to build the Domesday Book. It can only be built in London, so gaining or keeping control of London is crucial.<\/p>\n

The historical Domesday Book<\/a> is actually quite interesting: To determine what each landowners land and livestock was worth and how much taxes every they owed, William the Conqueror sent delegates all over England. Everything was neatly listed in that book and because what got written in that book was final and could not be disputed or contested, it got called the Doomsday Book, which in middle English was Domesday book!<\/p>\n

A precondition to build the Domesday Book is having built 6 Domesday Shire Courts (sending out your men), which again can only be built in cities at least 8 hexes away from London. This excludes the cities of Dover, Winchester, Chichester, Oxford, Northampton, Thetford.<\/p>\n

Once more not only the historical setting of the scenario is interesting and fitting, but also the victory conditions are incredibly well designed!<\/p>\n
