RTW BI Viking Conquests

[Unit 35]

Yep thats right another god damn mod about Vikings but Vikings are that cool!

Ok so my mod overs the time period about 840AD to 1066AD, this covers the period when the Vikings secede mierly to be privates and raiders but started to settle in the British isles and the East.

In this time period populations begun to settle once more, the Frankish Kingdoms begun to be more defined France in the west and Germany in the east. The rise of the russo-slavic State of Kiev.

And there weren't just Scandivian riaders either, out of the hungryian plains came the Maygar who Raided the Frankish kingdoms throughout the 9th and 10th century.

It is a bit of a compromise but i think it works.

It still needs some more twecking but its almost there, might add some more provences

Units


Saxon Thegns


Greater Fryd


Viking Landsmen


Viking Karls


I have some more units but i like to keep things close to my chest

Anyway other than getting some info about my mod out I would also like some suggests at the moment I am not sure what do do with the Swedes, in hisotry they were the ones who conquered in the East but by 838 the Rus state had been founded so I was thinking they would Conquered Finland?

And any suggests for other Slavic peoples like the Pechneg or the Kipchaks?

Yeah when your a one man team its one of the only way, thats the compromise, however being a one man teams means i will probably finish.

To set the record straight iam quite a competent modeller

Rus vikings - this is joke - nonsens ....
rus -or russ or ros - peoples (slavs) from place river ros ( near dniepr ) river - kievan russ

[Unit 35]

rus -or russ or ros - peoples (slavs) from place river ros ( near dniepr ) river - kievan russ

I can see that you are from ukraine so iam guessing you have some nationialist baised, but there is alot of evident to say that the rus and russian state were very scandinavian

And need i menion Rurik or Roric of Jutland

But if it makes SOOO much diffence they can be in Misc because they arn't Slavs and they arn't Vikings

[vlad 1]

this is just theory -not historical ....
yes slavs heave aliance with vikings (and call vikings -varyazy or varjagi)/ also heave some vikings liders in kiev - but 99.9 % peoples in kievan rus this is slavs nations - not vikings germanic.
all slavs langv. identical - ukraine or poland or czesh or horvat or russian-or any slavs - this is not germanic langv...
