What is misleading about highlighting Viking inferiority when faced with organized resistance?
>>
>>480920

Raiding forces are necessarily inferior to organized resistence of the kind they encountered in those battles, that says nothing about the competence of the warriors in fighting in general or their abilities as raiders.

Also, I've never heard anyone say that vikings were great conquerors in the same sense romans, macedonians, mongols or so on were.

So it's misleading because it's fighting against a strawman, using slimey tacticts while pretending to be informative.

Well I must say I do appreciate this tone much more than

>vikings were unstoppable force and the best warriors of their time prove me wrong

Yes the Norsemen were accomplished warriors, no one disputes that. However to say that they were obviously superior to everyone else is utter nonsense.
>>
>>480929
Raiding is not fighting unless killing unarmed people can be considered a ''fight''. The farmers didn't have any weapons did they?
>>

I've never heard anyone seriously saying that. Muh-samurai-type guys excluded.

Well OP fits that description rather nicely.

Raiding often entails fighting small size battles against armed opponents, just not against armies.

>>480956

He's not being serious. Making outrageous claims is a good way to have people discuss a certain issue.
Just saying "well what about vikings guyz" will earn you a lot less replies than stating the vikings were the best thing since sliced bread.

Anglo-Saxons didn't join until after the Norman conquest of England.
>>480828
What a lot of people forget is that vikings were not soldiers, they were largely normal farmers, workers etc who had little training and experience. Obviously if you put an army like that against a trained Anglo-Saxon force they're gonna loose.
