Template:Mod=Wrath of the Norsemen


Introduction

Medieval: Wrath of the Norsemen is a mod in development for Medieval 2 which is set in the Viking era. It brings a large span of Europe into the Viking's wrath and takes the most exciting and blood-thirsty era of history and throws it into the new Total War engine, with the campaign map being focused on Europe. Inspired by the song 'Thousand Years Opression' by Amon Amarth. The link to the forums is at the bottom of the page.


Overview

The mod will take place from 793-1011 AD and will cover the affairs of the Viking raids on most of Europe (map cutting off right before we get to the Mediterranean sea). This just takes the most dynamic, fun and bloodthirsty era into the brand new Total War game.

New Gameplay

-Ships can now raid up rivers

-All new factions

-Increased movements for ships, agents and units

-New formations (With Darthmod also implemented, thanks to Darth Vader)
