Description


Step into the frozen wilds with the 'Warriors of the North' DLC for *Battle Brothers*, where a harsher, more unforgiving world awaits. This expansion plunges your mercenary company into a newly realized northern region, brimming with danger, mystery, and opportunity. Choose from unique starting origins, clash with a fearsome new barbarian faction, equip your warriors with rugged viking and rus-inspired armor, and uncover the chilling truth behind the ‘Ijirok’—a legendary beast born of the icy wilderness.

Features

  • Origins – Begin your campaign with one of ten distinct backgrounds, from savage northern tribes to desperate peasant levies or zealous cultists. Each origin introduces unique mechanics and shifts how your story unfolds from the first step to the final battle.
  • New Opponents – Survive encounters with a previously unseen faction of frostborn barbarians, wielding brutal weaponry and driven by their own fierce code. Their tactics and equipment bring fresh challenges to every skirmish.
  • Legendary Locations – Journey to two myth-soaked sites hidden in the tundra, where ancient secrets and powerful new bosses guard a fabled prize awaiting those bold enough to claim it.
  • Champions – Track down renowned enemy warlords across the north. Defeat them in combat and claim their legendary gear as your own.
  • New Banners and Gear – Outfit your band in authentic viking and rus-themed armor, helmets, and shields. Wield new weapons and unleash the ferocity of the nordic warhound onto the battlefield.
  • New Contracts and Events – Forge your reputation through region-specific missions and navigate richly illustrated, story-driven events that deepen your immersion in mercenary life.
  • New Music – Feel the chill of the north with two atmospheric tracks composed to elevate the tension and triumph of your journey.
  • New Achievements – Test your mettle and unlock a suite of fresh accomplishments tailored to the trials of the northern frontier.

Great game. Just want to say though, that the only reason I bought the DLC's is because of the mods available. I love Battle Brothers, but when I was told mod support wasn't an option I could't bring myself to dump more

Objects of convention, entirely concieved from scratch, a set consisting entirely of symbols and icons, games live and die by a number of small electric discharges of imagination evocation into the player's brain.

This is a very good DLC: It adds many new ways to play through different starting options. The Northern Barbarians are fun to fight against. New armours and weapons with Rus/Viking and Slavic influence are awesome.

This is the DLC at adds a bunch of origins, which are basically sets of advantages, disadvantages and occasionally other mechanics to play with. It also adds Barbarian opponents, who are tough, usually carry worse gear

This is by far my favorite Battle Brothers DLC. The barbarians are probably my favorite enemy faction to fight in the game, with their rusty and crude gear, focusing on throwing weapons and later on Armored unholds. The
