See, you're freeing all of these soldiers for the massive battles that Viking revolves around.
From there, the troops usually give you some task to complete such as gathering a healing honey or eliminating a traitor, and once the odd job is complete, they join your team. Find the camps, kill the Legion, and free the men. This means that the majority of your time in Viking is spent scouring the mountain tops and grassy plains looking for men who are usually locked in giant ribcage prisons or tethered to skull poles. The problem is, Hel's Legion - an army of blue-skinned, undead bad guys - is roaming the countryside and has imprisoned the very Vikings who would be willing to fight alongside Skarin. Skarin agrees, gets this glowing amulet from Freya, and we're off! Now, taking on the queen of the damned isn't a one-man gig. The game opens with Skarin mortally wounded and about to take a one-way trip to Valhalla, but Freya - Odin's daughter - steps in to save the Schwarzenegger-like brute as long as he pledges allegiance to her and promises to go after Hel, queen of the Underworld. Set in the time when the Norse Gods ruled and people hid gold in glowing urns for some inexplicable reason, Viking, the latest from SEGA and Creative Assembly, tosses you into the massive boots of Skarin, a shirtless warrior who packs a sword and battleaxe. That isn't the case with Viking: Battle for Asgard. Some have iffy controls, others have lame stories, and a few just have weak enemies, but even with these natural foibles, glitches and hang-ups, a videogame can transcend its limitations and be heralded as a title where the sum is greater than the parts.
