I am in the process of putting together as much research as possible regarding the Swedish Rus' of the Varangian Guard and their establishment of a state in Kiev. This is going to form the basis of a Viking 'Empire' narrative that would encompass Slavic and Norse cultures of the day...
However, now that "The Last Kingdom" mod has been released I also have a desire to use a great deal of material I have regarding an AAR based upon the Northumbrian struggle against the Vikings and a subsequent quest for expansion across the Saxon kingdoms.
Both AAR's excite me greatly, but both would need to be a solitary project with totally devoted attention.
I can't for the life of me choose so I'd like people to offer suggestions...and this time, I promise I'm finishing it!!!!
