Woah vikings sucked.

If I totaled the defeats of a lot of various empires, you'd come under the impression that they sucked too

Wtf I hate poster no.1573808 now

Even the fucking tv show establishes that Vikings didn't like getting involved in pitched battle against their foe and would actively avoid it.

>>1574043
That's because Vikings were raiders first and foremost.

Norsemen had armies that they would send for true warfare and they were about as successful as most European ones.

Yay, now that we cleared the up there won't be another thread today right?

>>1574043
Such brave warriors.

>>1574043
Isn't that what most people did?
Battles are fucking risky and nothing really stops you from losing and getting most of your army captured or cut down or captured and then cut down if you loses.

why do we have this thread every day

what the fuck is it about vikings that make them such a contentious topic here?

god damn I hate this place

>>1574913
Someone is probably doing it to troll the imagined hoard of stormfags here ((Who are trolling other bait to troll the imagined hoard of left wingers here==

>>1574919
That's fucking stupid, it means we never get to actually talk about the viking age. All this meming isn't even in good humor, it's just miserable, like the console war threads on /v/.

>>1574946
We do, if people would start actual serious threads about Vikings that aren't glorifying or defamatory. As always ((I think)) you will fare better if the OP is free from leading questions or crystal clear bias.
The problem is if someone do decide to post bait in such a threat and people here can't resist taking the bait, not too sure about that one.

>>1574919
It's a /pol/fag who hates pagans

>>1574913
This, fuck these threads
Can we go back to the "why didnt sub-saharan africa develop/invent the wheel" ones instead?
