Welcome to the .Org's Medieval:Total War Wiki Reference Guide. The purpose of this Wiki is to offer an easy way to reference numbers and aspects of Medieval: Total War and Viking Invasion while online. Information and statistics about units, buildings, combat mechanics and more can be found here.

Most of the information here pertains to Medieval:Total War, with the Viking Invasion expansion pack installed and patched to version 2.01. Quirks and features (aside from the VI campaign itself, obviously) that are not in the expansion pack will be noted when possible. The 2.01 patches for both VI and the Gold edition can be found here.
