In a recent battle 80 of my vikings wiped out 50 vg. I was surprised as I was only using them as a delaying tactic and they only had 2 honour. Are the vg going soft.

First: the vikings get bonus attacking armor. Varangians are heavily armored.

Second: the outcome of the battle might have been dictated by differences in valor (also the general's command rating). vikings from Norway (+1 valor) with a good general (+4 valor) would beat the crap out of valor 0 varangians...
