NHO Main Part
Features:
- Reworked Norse culture split, including four brand new cultures in Scandinavia and a completely overhauled language setup. See here for details.
- Overhauled Norse and Norse-derived (including melting pot) character and dynasty names as well as noble and landed title localisation.
- New or tweaked names and localisation for neighbouring cultures (Anglo-Saxon, Celtic, Balto-Slavic, and Finno-Ugric), including an effort to replace all remaining "High Chiefs".
- A "Scots" melting-pot that will appear in the Scottish lowlands in the 11th century (around the time of Malcolm III whose descendants are of this anglophile culture along with the Scoto-Norman nobility).
- Revision of the Rus setup, with a new Polotsk cadet branch of the Rurikids, revised succession laws for Kiev, and fixes to the Novgorod Republic, etc.
- Changes and corrections to the title and character setup in and around the Scandinavian kingdoms.
- Tweaked Norse-Gaelic and Anglo-Danish melting-pots.
- Other minor changes that enhance the experience when playing within the Norse sphere of influence.

NHO Icelandic Republic
Features:
- Iceland as a republic with all the lawspeakers, important chieftains, and major clans of the age, several saga figures, and a complete line of Bishops for both of the Icelandic dioceses.
- Important families of the Faeroe Islands around the time of conversion to Christianity and an extra holding to make the struggles for/against conversion and integration into the Norwegian Kingdom more interesting; this holding later being replaced by the diocese of the Islands.
- Unreformed pagans can use the "convert to merchant republic" decision (when all other requirements are met).
- Added modifiers to portray the pre-colonisation (no levies), the Landnám, and the climate.

No Early Bascinets or Great Helms
Features:
No longer will you see Harald Hardrada wearing a 13th century great helm. Disables bascinets before 1300 and great helms before 1200 (for Crusaders 1150). The distribution of high martial gear based on martial skill etc. has also been tweaked slightly to accommodate the more fractured emergence of the helmet types.

Call to Arms
Features:
Any independent ruler, with at least one higher than baron tier vassal, that becomes primary participant in a war will have to call vassals to arms, but when at peace or a secondary participant only, the ruler will get the possibility to raise liege levies once more
NOTE:
- I've created this with inspiration, and some base code, from this mod.
- Many triggers for factions and decisions have been modified to take into account the drop in the liege's perceived power when he no longer has direct control of his vassals' levies.
- Be aware that this feature is very much experimental and will change your experience significantly.
