Thats true... so far only one helmet with horns have been found. and that is belived to have belonged to a priest. The horns would be very impractical in battle..

[PanthaPower]

Ah, historically accurate or not, it still looks cool doesn't it? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I'm more interested to see how the game plays and what the improvements are in the AI. Hope it will have a balanced castle attack system and that all the other glitches (buildings destroyed after conquering, computer trade sucks, no mercanaries in AI armies, 90% peasant armies, etc) are going to be improved. If not, I will not even bother to buy it.

yeah with horns looks better heres a possible encounter

*setting is a games store sumwhere*

*with horns*

Dude look at that cool cd cover wow i gotta buy that hes ard as nails

*without horns*

oh dude checkit out wat a lame cd cover, its just sum dude screaming

who cares if vikings did/did not have horns, they look better with em anyway.

[Lord Romulous]

dont worry. the actual game wont feature vikings with horns. (the devs have promised their will not be horns)

the horns were put on the box cover for the cool factor by CA marketing

Oh no, another "viking-horns"-thread

- If trying to look cool, don't immitate cows. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/redface.gif

- The vikings used the horns to drink from. How cool would a soldier look with beer cans glued to his helmet? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smokin.gif

Off with their horns http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

Blame universal populist mediums like
Hagar The Horrible and the Minnesota Vikings
football team logo for this historical inaccuracy.

here we go again with the Vikings

[Emp. Conralius]

well, let's at least have some discussion about the Vikings Just off the info CA gave us about the MTW ex-pack, we can really say very little; but we could write a damn book about what we're hearing about Rome: Total War, which is set to be released a half a year later...

[Leet Eriksson]

ahhh heck,who cares for historical accuracy?

Imams never wore necklaces,Murabitin Infantry never existed(most of them were cavalry) and camels were never used in combat

I thought if it ws on the interent it had to be true http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/tongue.gif

[Oberiko]

I know, but certain... "powers" don't want that kind of information leaked.

Now, thanks to you, I must live the rest of my life in shadow and fear.
