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 Obshinder'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.
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
