And Rule Seven is gone as well! By Mjolnir, what is this?!? I see you smirking, Hrolvath. Where did it go? Ahem, there is no Rule Six. Keep SPAM and all of its by-products away from us if you value your ability to breathe clean air. Our protein-rich diet consisted mainly of fish and sheep, lamb if we were lucky and it was in season, or beef. NO DOUBLE-POSTING WITHOUT CAUSE OR PAUSE!ĥ. Let the young pitch-fork wielder have his chance to post, too. Unless a week has transpired, then all bets are off and one may freely continue.

Pouring tasty honey mead onto the squabbling wenches like the red-capped fool is doing is also tacky- and can amount to alcohol abuse depending on the host.Ĥ.

We are not berserkers! We aren't civilized either, but we do have manners and squabbling like the serving wenches below is considered tacky. It is simply embarrassing to be happily drinking one's fill of ale and suddenly become violent. Yet those who board our ship or spew their venom here will not be tolerated. They may live there in peace with the blessing of every Viking who ever walked this earth. Thus, NO FLAMING!, lest the ship we sail become like that below.Ģ. Back during the Great wars, they said 'loose lips sink ships.' In our day, the boat was made of wood. We had rules to live by on land and sea (air was not yet invented), thus we shall have rules here as well.ġ. Most know us for scenes like those above, not those below, when skinny bearded little men from far away would meet us to discuss the price of goods and exchange cold gold for the goods we brought. Today we are far less than what we once were.

We are innovative craftsmen, dauntless explorers, fair and honest merchants, and yes, we were also feared warriors ruthless raiders.

Sometimes we are, I admit, but Vikings are far more than a football team from Minnesota or ravagers upon seas. Most think of us as the metal-clad maniacs and terrors sweeping in from the seas as shown above.

Total war age of vikings
