Overview Pirates, Vikings & Knights II is a Half-Life 2 modification based on 3 teams from times past locked in a never-ending battle for wealth, dominance, and power. PVK II pits each team against one another in a variety of different surroundings, from the frozen Viking Northlands, Medieval castles and villages, to the tropical Caribbean. Even mythical lands told of in legends. . Each team and class has their own strength and weaknesses. Vikings being more the close combat specialists, Pirates preferring quick strikes and long distance attacks, and Knights being the all around team. Cooperation will lead you to victory and glory! Visit the official PVKII site		Features Unique Classes Each team will eventually have their own unique set of classes (6) that correspond to the team.
