| Viking Invasion II (BI) Viking Invasion II aims to recreate the campaign of the cult-status MTW: Viking Invasion on the Rome BI engine. It sticks closely to the original campaign, only making changes to correct large inaccuracies, to improve gameplay and comply with the new engine.

I very much like it!
However, I am puzzled why you didn't include the Lodbrok family in the danish faction..:hmmm: I took the liberty to change this in my own installation One other thing.. I think the Spearmen of all Viking and Anglo-saxon factions should be able to make a shieldwall DV |

Glad you're enjoying it.
I had to cover the families pretty quickly; I am not an expert on such things but I understand Horik was King of the Danes (at least in Jutland) at that time. Though none of the kings is an easy thing to pin down in this era. There seems to have been at least one other Danish kingdom extant, and I think Lodbrok was more of a Sea King which made it very hard to put his family into an actual royal court as it were. I can't remember why the shield wall is absent from the first-level spearmen for the Saxons and Vikings, but I am sure there was a reason |

Great to see a public release of VI2
It was a great pleasure to work on this mod - both because of interesting theme of the mod and great teammates btw. it was the fastest developed mod i ever worked on (and i worked on about 15 different mods)- it was released only after 113 days after its inception. Enjoy the game

MMS, GaFM, TOL and VI2 have all been developed in about 6 months or less - it's my compensation to the community for FATW taking so long during it's first couple of years
This will be my last mod I think, for the TW series to date at least. I need to get a proper job now And a big thx to all who did support VI2 in the hidden bowels of Halie's "In The Shade" forums... |

Lodbrok is included as a danish surname though your initial FM´s are not of this family.

We had no intention whatsoever to ruin anybody's academic career, these things do happen though - worst case scenario, give your prof a copy of BI and VI2...
If RTW works on Vista32 (it does) so will VI2. |

As you mention this ... imagine how much money modders lost and loose money through modding, especially if they are independent professionals (or so called free lancers like me). But it is just our own problem (or our own addiction) if we do it that way.

Thx all - do give some feedback on your campaigns or on any aspect of the mod!
I'm eager to see who will be the first to have a campaign victory playing as the Welsh Quote:
