As a Scandinavian I can confirm this is how we all live our daily lives. I'm watching this video from a phone I looted from the cold dead hands of an Elven spearman.

[@Darakyoutane]

Is your name ragnar too? Ragnar swordson?

[@joaogomes9405]

Elven of course being the Norwegian word for weak danish peasant

[@URKCEHinoSuu]

You mean 'British' spearman?

[@ArctikToast]

I challenge you to a duel to the death for that phone!

[@H4FF]

Poor John, first gets punted and then his phone stolen.

I had no idea the Vikings "used werewolves as scouts" and "were well-versed in fire magic", thanks for the history lesson Zerkovich! 😂

Of course! How else were they so good at burning and pillaging?

I've been hoping for that for a long time

you got dwarves for that

[@marquisrivas5821]

You can do this with the OvN Truthsayers of Albion mod.

[@immasword]

Some norscan tribes worship non chaos gods such as ulric or ursun so its loreful

[@NickDAngeloUX]

Kataph’s Kraka Drak Dwarfs mod is kinda one to follow this. Although its a dwarf faction, your goal is to conquer nórsca and while doing so you have the opportunity to construct buildings that allow you to recruit norscans looking for payback against Chaos!

[@gglanouille3060]

RIP John the Elf. A star has stopped shining today, and legend says it's because it got ran over by a horse.

[@ASpaceOstrich]

Sword of Khaine is such a cool mechanic. Kinda wish all the legendary weapons had something similar where they could be stolen. Like imagine if it was possible for Grimgor to steal Ghal Maraz?

[@lechking941]

Yeah, but Ghal Maraz is a quest battle for Karl. The Sword of Khaine I think is better, because elves HAVE to draw it, but then anyone can claim it.

Sounds more like what Ysgramor did to the Elves than anything Viking, but still very enjoyable. Makes me want to give Norsca a go, haven't in a long time.

[@seanpkrueger]

John the Elf had so much backspin applied he bounced backwards on the landing.

[@hectordrake2882]

I learned so many new things about the Vikings. Amazing.

[@skankhunt42-copy]

Just watched some recent videos of yours, Zerk and I just love you and your reaction about the Elfs. :D That "bleaurgh" always makes me smile in solidarity!

[@Mulpje]

Loving all the effort you are putting in these videos!

[@NorscaWolves]

The norsca rework needs to include an official reskin for the maurader units. They should be wearing furs, leather and plate considering they live in a land of perpetual snow and ice. They shouldn't be half dressed. It'd go a long way to making them more thematically appropriate and separating them from Warriors of chaos. The reskin and a heavy focus on their unique units like Skin wolves, Frost trolls and Mammoths. These are unique cool units that also help differentiate Norsca from WoC. The rework is desperately needed ASAP.

[@shorewall]

I think the units are based off of minis from the upcoming tabletop release from Games Workshop. There are great mods that give the Norscans better clothes and armor.

[@shmekelfreckles8157]

Norsca are just literally chaos marauders as a separate faction, they don’t need any other flavour

[@Nikolas5842]

Frost Wyrm was always my favourite Norsca unit, and one of the most coolest dragons. I would like them as mount for Lords instead of just Mammoths and Mammoths.

[@Nikolas5842]

[@markbelew1376]

Yeah, currently they just look like generic evil fantasy barbarians. Actual Norse helmets looked pretty cool, so why not give them Norse-inspired helmets?

[@davids.8909]

Absolutely loved the video! I adora thematic campaigns and armies, and Norsca as well. What a jackpot of a vid. Lovely content as usual!

[@Niebler]

Great video, Zerk! If you are open for ideas I think it would be super fun to watch a Sartosa run-through of mortals only (except for artillery/vampire units) using allied Empire/cathay gun units and ogre mercenaries. Maybe establishing a pirate coast somewhere like Cathay or Southlands.

[@Nikolas5842]

Cool idea Sartosa humans (and now Ogres too) were always the most interesting to me. The real pirates, too bad they didn't expanded on that idea more.

[@Candlemancer]

There's a mod for mortal artillery and guns, that way you can be all mortal except vampires

[@Mark-pn9xy]

Great video, the thematic self-constrained play throughs are highly entertaining!

[@MidwesternMarauder94]

[@phallocrat]

I really wish certain races could embark and disembark without losing all of their movement. The Vampire Coast and Norsca for sure, and maybe the Dark Elves. It would be awful to play against, but that honestly feels appropriate for factions of coastal raiders.

They should add a non-chaos viking fraction. Maybe a Valkyrie fraction who successfully resisted chaos corruption.
