Vikings on the Starboard Bow


 * New expedition available from the Explorers' Hall - Defend a small island village against attacking Vikings
 * Pirates start by manning the village's old shore gun battery to pummel the approach viking longships.
 * Once the vikings reach shore, pirates must fend them off in either swordfight or rumble. Vikings will have damage blocks based on the pirates' gunning performance.
 * Pirates are rewarded with pieces of eight. If subscribed or holding a pirate badge they also receive a viking trinket.
 * Trinkets can be redeemed at the Trading Post for fancy prizes, including the Frost-class Longship Design and a Berserker Pelt
 * Fix a bug where brand new pirates wouldn't see rewards for their account until their second login.
