On the Front is the fourth scenario of the Norse campaign in Age of Empires: Mythologies. It is played on a 8x30 sized map.

Intro[]

Gunnars, the King of Burgundarholmr, fights against Fafnir's armies.

Intro[]

The Hills of Burgundarholmr

Scout: King Gunnarr! King Gunnarr! I bring news from the front!

Gunnarr: Out with it, scout. What is this news?

Scout: The Nibelungs have crushed our forward offensive and are counterattacking sir!

Gunnarr: Loki's curses, we have to fall back. Relay to my commanders: Full retreat.

Narfi: It won't be so easy, Gunnarr.

Gunnarr: Narfi! You scoundrel, what are you doing here?

Narfi: Stopping you from escaping, from the looks of it. Attack!

Narfi: Break off, we'll regroup and strike him again. Gunnarr hates a running fight.

Oracle: This is your first Ulfsark Unit. Ulfsarks serve a number of purposes on the battlefield. While they are fast and efficient Light Infantry, Ulfsarks are also your primary builder. You can use any Ulfsark to construct Buildings just as you would with the Villagers of other cultures.

Oracle: The Norse do not build Mills or Mines to gather resources, instead using mobile Ox Carts. Ox Carts can be trained at your Town Center, and need only to be on the same tile as a resource to gather Food or Gold.

Gunnarr: Bah! Defensive formation, and resume the retreat. He'll harry us, but we can make it to the wall.

Outro[]

Siegfried: You there! Who commands this army?

Gunnarr: I do. Why do you call me out?

Siegfried: I need an army to slay Fafnir. I'm taking yours.

Gunnarr: Ha! You've got guts, boy. Still, why should I lend you my army? You don't look a general to me.

Siegfried: I am Siegfried, son of Sigmund. I wield the sword Balmung, and Brunnhilde the Valkyrie rides at my side. I will slay Fafnir, with or without leading your army to glory against his.

Trivia[]

  • For some reason, in the introduction, after Gunnarr runs away to the base and the camera points to Narfi, it fades to blue on the top screen.
