The Problem With Wolves! | Norland - Part 5 (Rimworld Meets Crusader Kings - Preview)
197Norland continues and we notice that there are actually quite a lot of wolves around our settlement. Unfortunately we notice this a bit too late, just after one of our peasants becomes wolf lunch, but this does spur us into action! Queen Betty and her soldiers arm up and head off into battle to take care of the problematic local wildlife, and there are quite a lot of them. Things don't go exactly to plan though...
Also not going to plan is the general stability of our game because we've been rewarded with all sorts of random things, such as many axes and a gigantic pile of herbs. These are quite useful to use for trading though and we're able to actually make a bit of money!
Using some of this money we're able to finally give Orsa a proper title to keep her in the settlement, plus we can buy some holy rings to make the nobles happy!
Also the Unholy Horde claim more victims, we build many farms and King Bernard makes an enemy of a nearby ruler...
NOTE: This is a preview version of the game.
