    Probably have to wait for an event to unlock them. Dont worry just stock up on the Godly Super Cavalry that are impervious to mere mortals.

    the highest tier Mayor Palace gives them in the late campaign, if I remember it correctly... Don't know in the early campaign though...

    IMO the Varangians should be recruitable from the start, considering that the Viking Era ended in 1066 and the flow of mercs from Scandinava deterioates from that time...

    IIRC 4th laterian council event in early era as well (1215).

    If you want them earlier than that you can change the date for the 4th Lateran Council in the descr.events file. That will also give you access to Siphonatores and Scholarii.

    as I wrote... open the EDU and remove the trigger... that way you can train them as soon as you get the building...
