Has anyone out there been able to successfully add a new Viking-type faction to VI?
I've almost finished the mod I have been working on. So far, I've added eleven factions to the VI campaign; mostly turning rebel provinces into small kingdoms and breaking Ireland up into four separate kingdoms plus Scottish Ulster. The finishing touch was going to be splitting the Vikings into the Norsemen and the Danes, but then I ran across the following thread in the Alchemist Lab:
http://www.totalwar.org/cgi-bin....=viking (http://www.totalwar.org/cgi-bin/forum/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=5;t=15053;hl=viking)
It sounds as though the new Danish faction would end up behaving just like any of the normal factions. Now it is true that the Danes did a little more settling and less hit-and-run raiding than the Norsemen, so it wouldn't be a total loss, but has anyone else tried this?
