    I am playing it and i have to say,

    hail the creators of it!



    It is very professionally done. I just noticed that Aradan is a man behind FA:TW:) too. No wonder it is so good.

    One question: does the last patch (1.5) change gameplay somehow, or is it only for cosmetic things?

    btw: i got forward with the Danes already:)

    Aradan has indeed become the master of balancing units and balancing campaigns for superb gameplay and challenge! He's also the man behind the coding of the traits and ancs in VI2 which are always well done and uniquely so ;)

    He even helped me finish typing up all those Anglo-Saxon Chronicle entries! ;)

    Aradan joined FATW justed before the 2.0 release and has done wonders with it. My own input input fatw has now dwindled to nothingness and am pleased with my replacement

    Please do use the latest patch if you are not on 1.5 already - they are mainly developments in balance and tweaking and make for better gameplay. There are some other changes too, though minor. Also, support will generally not be given unless you have 1.5.

    Sadly I have a campaign in progress before patch:( And it was a really tough one to beat as Danes.

    Viking Invasion II has pick up the first-place, tied with Napoleonic Total War II, as "Favourite Post-Roman-Era Mod" in TWCenter.Net's 2008 RTW Awards. Thank you to all who voted!

    One of these days I'll have to put my ExRM campaign and FOE work aside and try some new (or even not-so-new) mods... *adds VI2 to the list*

    1.7 was released recently. It is likely the last version of VI2. You will need this base to play the new Dominion of Britannia "expansion" for VI2 (see own thread). See OP for link to forums.
