Denmark begins the Teutonic campaign with control of the Jutland Peninsula, a piece of Scandinavia, and a small piece of land in the Baltic states area. While beginning the campaign neutral to all other factions, it would be wise for them to begin by asserting their control of Scandinavia before the Norwegians and peel back the forces of the Holy Roman Empire to the south. They must also watch for the Teutonic order, who they border in the Baltic sea. If they can take control of Scandinavia and defeat the Norwegians, they become a faction known as 'The Union of Kalmar', which is a union of Denmark and Norway, giving them access to new units. The army of Denmark is identical to in Medieval Total War II unless they become the union of Kalmar, in which case they gain the new Norwegian units. A certain bug however may prevent you from gaining these new units, as it has happened. The Danish army consists of Heavy infantry that wield powerful swords and axes, such as Huscarls and Scandanavian Axemen. They are in a position to have a strong navy and plenty of profitable naval trade.
The Kalmar Union
In order to form the powerful Kalmar Union, you have to control as Denmark the cities of Goteborg, Abo, Kalmar, Uppsala and Visby. After that you will receive the mission to kill the Norwegian king in order to form the Union. You have to kill the king of Norway in either battle or assasination. After you form the Union of Kalmar, your banner will change and you will get access to 3 Norwegian units: Svenner (recruted from castles), Sami Axemen (recruited from castles) and Gotlanad Footmen (recruited from castle with a Swordsmith Guilde).
