I love Attila, vanilla and its mods. It is great, the last greatly moddable TW game and, in my opinion, one of the best historicals out there. There are so many mods (555, rise of islam, 1212, the dawnless days and countless others) that I feel I'll end up playing Attila and only Attila!

Yes Attila is a truly great game and the modding community’s love has made it even better!

Good stuff. Need to go back to Attila and try this.

I've been playing both this mod and shieldwall (ToB) for years and i've never played anything other than Viking factions and they're both amazing, wish there was more good games set in the viking age.

Great video as always

Honestly something that Thrones should've done is handicap its factions armies in different ways like in AoC. Every faction in Britannia feels so similar meanwhile in AoC The Danes don't have any cavalry at the same time that the Avars and Lombards are the only factions with access to shock cavalry.

Love this but can we have a more in depth final fantasy video like the one you did in the summer??

A little shame that the Byzantines aren’t featured in when the Vikings played very crucial roles. I think there is another Attila mod that does this mod on the campaign map but much wider

@AndysTake

I would’ve loved to have the byzantines be playable. Sadly the modders have come out and said that it’s impossible due to the mod files itself, so I think something must’ve gone wrong during development maybe.

My perfect Viking Total War game would greatly focus on longships and them allowing your armies to move huge distances over the sea to plunder monasteries and ports, which would perhaps be mini-regions that are easily attacked and looted, all to build up your treasury to launch full-scale invasions into England and France later. The map would also include Iceland, Greenland and Newfoundland.

​@@AndysTake There's a 'DLC submod' faction pack for Age of Vikings from the original modders, which also allows you to play the Kingdom of Wales, Lotharingia and Cordoba. Disable that mod for the regular factions, enable it for those three.

u should link the mod page in the description to make it easy for people who are interested to find the mod. thanks

Can you play as the Irish in this mod? I wanna drive the Vikings out of the Emerald Isle. And the Saxons too, now that I think on it.

the thing is.. it don't have the viking shield wall >:

There's already a viking total war called thrones of britannia.....there's 2 viking DLC's for it. The reason it takes place in britain is we know so little about scandinavia during 700-1000ad its not til king harald, sven and others unite norway and sweden that we have evidence recorded writings before then it is just conjecture and saga stories.

Does coop multiplayer work with this mod?

Thanks to u i bought this game ;) @edit I mean Total War Attila

Viking armies (mostly Danish) conquered East Anglia and Northumberland and dismantled Mercia, while in 871AD King Alfred the Great of Wessex became the only king to decisively defeat a Danish army in England. Leaving Wessex, the Danes settled to the north, in an area known as “Danelaw. so even this mod don't show off the Vikings very well considering DaneLaw was established and that ment the Vikings pretty much got what they wanted the useful Farmlands and Dane Laws within England and they allied with Wessex aswell so the fighting by the time this mod is set in pretty much stopped in England once DaneLaw was established.

Doesn’t Age of Vikings have a lot of bugs though? I believe it was created for a previous version of the game (pre slavic culture pack I think).

problem with Rome 2 & Attila is building & unit and penalty system. you cant have many buildings which is silly and penalties such as squalors making artificial hardness and unneccesary to the campaign! so i still prefer ToB (and Rome1!) to Attila and Rome2 !

need ragnar and ivar the boneless

Me too!

the Viking Age only lasted from 793AD to 1066AD so in terms of games there's not to much stuff they can cover seem the Vikings mostly did Trade and Farm of cause they did battle aswell but the Vikings did not do Battle as much as the history books make out... when the Vikings invaded England that was in 793AD and the target was the monastery at Lindisfarne... but in terms of the Vikings battle history there's not to much to say seem they mostly just wanted farmland so alot of Viking Based Games are more set around farming and building up a Viking Home then combat.. i think Total War really don't show what the Vikings did or even stick to the history of the Vikings..... CA has done a poor job on showing off The Vikings and that was Paid DLC aswell and as for Mods most player Mods don't even get the Vikings correct and just throw alot of BS into it like how the Viking political system works and how some mods give the Vikings really poor land units that are pretty much useless and break as soon as they get into battle... also The Vikings are useless when trying to capture Walled Settlements yet the Mods don't focus on the Raiding and Sacking part of the Vikings or even the slave part.

Since when was London on the east coast 😆 🤣

This looks like an awesome mod, I'll have to play this after I finish another Warhammer 3 campaign or two. I really wanted to like Thrones of Britannia, and did enjoy parts of it, but I could never really get into it. I like the viking age but prefer to play the Irish, Welsh or Scottish because of my ancestry, but I mostly want it to be fun and sadly Thrones is the first and only TW that just wasn't fun for me, despite three attempts to get into it. Atilla is my favorite modern TW and Age of Charlemagne my favorite DLC, so that's even better. I tried Crusader Kings 3 which is fun for a couple of campaigns but a lot of the story plays out like a slapstick meme and it breaks immersion for me.
