I just read the latest book in Cornwell’s Saxon Chronicles-about the interactions between Saxons and Norse in Britain in the late 9th-early 10th century.

I've got a frakkin' boardgame where the optimum strategy for the Vikings is to trade with the natives first, then raid 'em, and finally settle on their joint.
