Title: Army List 40 Norse Viking Errata?
Post by: billp on May 24, 2008, 11:58:28 AM

The army list for the Vikings lists the sole allowed Wb(S) element of Berserks as costing only 3 AP instead of the usual 5 AP given in the rules book. Is this an error, or is it to make up for the solitary (and thus doomed) nature of this element of Berserks? (The unavailability of any Wb Rear support leading to a discount.)

The berserks in that list should either be

    * I Wb S @ 5AP, or
    * I Wb F @ 3 AP

but what is it supposed to be? F or S?

Wb (S) @ 5AP

Another Question for clarification:

In the terrain section of List 40 it says: "All: S (S if Viking), Rv, ...."

I remember one post claiming that this was supposed to mean: "All: S (S if Viking), Rv, ..."
but I am not able to retrieve that message. Was this ever confirmed? Or is that rubbish? Just asking because I am strongly tempted to take Vikings actually to a tournament :P

I'm not aware of Phil confirming it, but it really makes no sense to interpret it otherwise than that Sea is compulsory for viking armies.

Hello All,

Probably quite an obvious question to many. But are the Dublin Viking armies before 850AD allowed undisciplined raiders? And as a 'Viking' army must they have compulsory S?

Cheers,

Dubling Viking is a subset of Viking, so yes, they can have undisciplined raiders and they have (ought have) compulsory Sea.
