After that, you will be introduced to the course of everything that is happening Eyrik, with which you will have to proceed to the market.

Here the player is waiting for the second fight. Enter into a fight or not - it all depends on the option chosen in the dialogue. It is best to agree to a battle, because it will give you experience and a reward that will come in handy in the future.

After the end of the fight, we must go to a meeting with the guests of the city and talk. Now the player can choose: either stay in the city for a little longer, or immediately leave it. After you decide to continue the adventure by joining the prince (guest of the city), you go to Grofheim. Along the way, there will be several detachments of enemies, they can be easily and quickly dealt with even on the average difficulty level. This ends the first chapter.

At the beginning of the second chapter, the player will go to Skogr. Adventures in the new location start again with a fight. After this, the hero selects provisions and quickly leaves for the city. In Skogra your squad will join a new character - Iver. Next, another battle will begin, as a result of which you can lose one of the characters.

Next, go to the throne room. There you will be offered to raise the level of characters and distribute skill points. After a dialogue with the leader of the settlement, your satellite Iaver is going to leave the city. There are no important choices in the dialogue, they differ only in wording and will not affect anything in the future history of Banner Saga. Passage continues beyond the city limits.

An uneasy path to the neighboring settlement of Frostavlar is accompanied by battles. The complexity of fighting is gradually increasing, so do not forget to buy supplies before you leave the city. The caravan is very tired and moves unevenly, so it's more reasonable to make a decision about rest.

On the way, there will be hunters who can join the Viking squad. However, for this it is necessary to have a certain number of points of fame and provisions.

The road will not be close, and many participants of the caravan break down. One of these cases occurs at night, when one person gets drunk and makes a fight. The main character is responsible for what to do with the culprit.

In general, the way to the city and take the entire second chapter of Banner Saga. Passage continues in the third part of the game.

The third chapter

Now the way to the caravan lies with Vedrefell. Along the way, there are regular robbers who no longer pose any threat to our caravan. After all, more Vikings joined the detachment. There will be a small reference to the new part of the series The Banner Saga 2, so be careful.

On the road there will be a small camp of merchants. With them you can bargain, talk. In any case, these NPCs are peaceful, so we pass them by. It is not recommended to buy provisions from them, because they sell stale products. Because of this, the caravan can be poisoned.

Next, the army of dredges will meet. Now the player will get acquainted not only with small battles, but also with another regime called war. It is a table in which the strength of the opponents is compared to the forces of the player, and it is suggested to choose one of the developments of events: attack, combat formation, defense, retreat and automatic decision-making. Very similar to the principle of battles on the global map from any part of Total War.

The fourth chapter

In the fourth chapter, the place of action is transferred to the city of Frocestvil. Near our neighborhood is our caravan and can not get inside. While we are outside the walls of the settlement, you can perform several additional quests.

Stock up on provisions in the local market, because the products have been delivered to it. Before leaving the city, several Vikings will want to join your party.

If you decide not to leave the city, and stay in it, then the development of events will take a slightly different path.

Fifth and Sixth Chapters

Now we again move to the main characters of the third chapter of Banner Saga. Passage continues in the city of Sigrholm. Here you have three branches of events. You can assemble your squad and leave the city, help destroy the bridge or help protect it. The choice depends entirely on the player's decision.

It is best to help the residents, as this will bring a lot of experience and fighting glory. You have to endure three difficult battles, during which you can lose the fighters, so be more careful.

But to protect the bridge still will not work - it will be broken with the help of magic. You will only have to leave the city together with your caravan. The Banner Saga, whose review may take a few pages of text, has almost reached the final stage of the story's development. Next begins the penultimate chapter of the game.

On the way to the new city, you have to perform a few simple quests. You can choose a long way and spend a lot of time, or you can go on a short road. But it will meet many enemies, so it's up to you. It is better to go around, because in battle you can lose more than half of people. A detour will give you extra points of fame. Also in the sixth chapter there are a number of side missions that are not necessarily required.

The final chapter

The whole chapter is devoted to the siege of Bersgard. The whole battle will take place in five stages, one battle per day. Every day opponents will be stronger, so your squad will lose many combat units. On the last day waiting for battle with the boss. After that, the game ends, and the continuation of the story can be seen in The Banner Saga 2.
