==Introduction==
The last kingdom is a mod for m2tw kingdoms. It is set in the years 865 and end at the norman invasion in 1066. The map stretches from Norway to Iceland and northern france. It is a real viking age mod with 13 factions, in a number of different cultures. It also adds a lot of new scripts and modify most aspects of the game. They focus more on gameplay and fun than on history but try ton keep a good historic core, and is gives a good view of the viking age. As it is not yet released some aspects are unknown, but the release will come soon, according to the team.

==Features==
The last kingdom has a number of special features to distiinct it from vanilla mediaval. All uis and buildings have been replaced to givethe mod an authentic feeling. The tech tree has also been made more complicated.
===Buildings===
The last kingdom has made over 50 new tech trees for buildings, but some buildings are still similar most have been overhauled to fit in the viking age.

The Last Kingdom’s Technological Tree has been broken down into eight different areas:
1.Government
2.Law and Order
3.Military
4.Religion
5.Naval and Trade
6.Agriculture
7.Infrastructure
8.Culture and Entertainment

Each of these categories is interconnected. By doing this, the team hope to give the player interesting choices and options when developing his tech-tree. So that development of one technology may open or close the doors on other technologies.

So for example, a Christian faction can choose to develop their Church and Monastery building lines, which will in turn give them access to Hospices and Infirmaries. Or a Viking faction , after building a Sacred Grove, can then choose to dedicate it to one of four Norse gods (1) all-powerful Odin (law and order bonus) (2) the beautiful fertility goddess, Freyja (population growth bonus) (3) the god of the sea and winds, Njördr (trade bonus) or (4) mighty Thor (morale and experience bonus).

===Governement system===
The Last Kingdom has amde a new governement system for expansion and has made three options when conquering.
1.Colony
2.Vassal
3.Royal Demesne

Each government type has ramifications on what technologies the player can develop in certain regions, with Royal Demesnes offering the most options and Colonies the least. However, the player will be limited in establishing Royal Demesnes to areas considered to be a part of their traditional homeland. Where this will have the most impact on the player is in the area of Military Development.

In a province that is part of your Royal Demesnes, the player will be able to recruit (after proper development, of course) both regional levies and more professional troops, including your Elite troops (e.g. Viking Hirðmenn, Anglo-Saxon Huscarls, Irish Arras Bodyguard).

In a province that is merely a Vassal the player will be able to recruit both regional levies and more professional troops, not including your Elites, provided the settlement’s culture is aligned with the player’s faction’s.

In a province that is merely a Colony the player will only have access to regional levies.

So for example, Connacht has consolidated the whole of Ireland under its rule. It launches a military campaign against Wales and successfully conquers Dyfed. After a period of Occupation, the player then has the choice of type of government to install. Because Dyfed is not considered part of Connacht’s traditional homeland, the player cannot install a Royal Demesne. He will have to choose between a Colony and a Vassal.

A Colony will be cheaper and faster to install and will give increased trade bonuses, but the player will be limited to regional Welsh troops. A Vassal will cost more and take longer to develop, but will give the player access to both regional Welsh troops and his own factional troops provided the cultural level is sufficient. However, a Vassal also brings decreased tax income and loyalty bonuses. We are hoping such choices serve to limit rapid expansion and ensure that war is a long-drawn out bloody affair and that peace and order is difficult to establish and maintain.
