    So what is the difference between Denmark, Vestfold and Hordaland. I saw Hordaland had the billmen unit. What are the other faction specials? Is it only units or also buildings?

    All of christendom will be awed...

    Well, I'm definitely impressed, this is a nice way of doing previews - it builds excitement, but limits wishful thinking/unrealistic expectations to a more reasonable degree than just leaving people drooling over beautiful units or a feature list.

    Nice AAR.

    But i have one question. Would not be better to call your guy in Chapter 3 "Dire Wolf" then "Twilight Wolf" ? I personally had never read about a twilight wolf.

    Twilight Wolf is the name of one of the Berserkers under King Haraldr Fairhair, Kveldulf Twilight-Wolf. That's why I called the chapter Twilight Wolf

    Yes, Kveldulf literally means "Evening-" or "Twilight Wolf"
    From Old Norse Kveld meaning "evening" and the suffix -ulfr meaning "wolf".

    I've got two points:
    1. Kveld = Evening while Skumring = Twilight
    2. To be honest it's not his fitting to translate his name Kveldulf. E.g Skalla-Grimr could be translated as it was his nickname Skalla which means bald. Grimr turned bald at a very early age, earning his nickname Skalla-Grim forever after. And his name Grimr could be translated to ugly...So I wouldn't be fond of having Bald-Ugly running around on my campaign map
