    Default Alternative to VI2

    1. If you do not have time to play VI2 or the historical raid on Lindisfarne, I have tracked down this sophisticated and engaging alternative for you:

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ancient...ng_quest.shtml

    Of course, I would not be interested in this sort of thing

    2. Only play this if you're young (ehem, I picked the wrong item in one place )

    3. Viking Defense!

    I can imagine this one will be popular with some... (cool music! )

    (I got 71990 on my first go!)

    4. 1066 - defeat the Viking army at the battle of Stamford Bridge...

    I just sliiightly edited some stats, is all... Fun game though, it's surprising how some factors can change the outcome in ways you'd never think of.

    Or a T-shirt perhaps...

    Got the thread title a bit wrong. Should be "VI2" of course. Or, can keep it the same and just put "6" in the opening post
