Overview by Anonymous
Denmark begins the campaign with only Arhus under its control, though it is surrounded by rebel provinces, and the faction most likely to be its main enemy, the Holy Roman Empire, lacks the effective early era troops Denmark has.
Danish units not-so-subtly imply an assault orientated faction as the majority are heavy infantry, but they also have access to norse archers, effective early hybrids. In addition to this, the Danes can also recruit Norse war clerics, powerful early/high period heavy cavalry. Defensive troops aren't ignored either, as the Danes can recruit Swordstaff armed troops, including a militia variety. But Danish heavy infantry will be the mainstay of its armies, from Viking Raiders to Obudshaer's, all unique troops are effective in a fight and can all pierce armour. the Danish navy is also strong in the early period, having access to Longboats.
In the upcoming kingdoms expansion, the Danes will also have to ability to merge with Norway and recruit the finest Norwegian troops, including the famed Gotland Footmen, the Sami axeman (cheaper versions of Norse axeman) and the Svenner (a more powerful version of the scout).
Overall, the Danes give the impression of a faction that's at its best in the early period, but whose skill wanes as more time passes, that said, it is not to the degree of the Byzantines. The Danes can get access to fine gunpowder-armed troops and several good variety gunpowder artillery. The axes of the Danes will prove useful against the knights of more armored factions.
Expansion and Diplomacy
Quickly move into Hamburg, this will allow alot more expansion in mainland Europe, and will slow the growth of the HRE. Make alliances with Milan and Hungary, as they need the HRE destroyed as well. Consider moving west and capturing Britain.
