That is not good at all. I am quite stunned that you managed to win, numbers in PDX games usually decide the battle.

Aethelraed, King of Wessex, at the Battle of Sceaftesbyrig - 2 August 974
Not an ideal situation by any means, as Caesar says, but a solid victory at Shaftesbury and much needed. With luck the Christians will be able to make the most of this momentum.
The Sutton Hoo helmet is a very nice touch, presumably on Paradox’s part.

No this is a mod design. The clothing stuff as standard is pretty good, but the helmets are singularly terrible. I avoided them for the most part when outfitting my Irish rulers. The crusaders helmet alone is pretty good. The rest look very silly (the fit to model head is way off, so it looks like a child playing dress up or an adult wearing a tiny toy).
Yes in hindsight it was probably naive of me to have attributed this to Pdx. Good on the modders for the job they’ve done with it.
A difficult battle, well won by the Christians - but the Norsemen have great numbers.
And even if the invasion should be fended off, the involvement of the Hibernian vikings shows that lasting peace in the British Isles is but a distant hope.
So I just finished reading all of this, and I think this might be the best AAR in the CK3 forum right now. I love the amount of work you've put into designing the graphics and the maps, and writing the narrative scenes, and playing out the family drama between the Houses of Albany and Lothian. Will definitely continue reading.
