Vikings and Camps: Medieval Structures
by ember_slvtr
Vikings and Camps: Medieval Structures is a Forge world generation mod that adds viking-themed villages, camps, outposts and houses to the world.
What it does
The mod adds eight viking-style structures to new terrain, from a small tent and a palisaded camp to a classical house and a large manor. Enemies are placed in and around them, so a camp or outpost is often a place to find fighting rather than shelter. Vikings spawn at night, and the mod's own tougher vikings are placed in camps and outposts more rarely.
The mod is built mainly as a structure pack for a modpack, and the author says its main purpose is to add more structures for a planned modpack. It runs on Forge for 1.18.2 only, with the latest file, 1.1, dated 2025-04-26. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The code is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
