The Vanir that have travelled over the rainbow bridge to Goria are raiders and bandits. They move from place to place in massive wooden hulled ships with great, carved dragonheads mounted on the prows. Each of these vessels is capable of carrying hundreds of Vanir and they ply coastlines looking for settlements to ravage, slaughtering or enslaving the occupants and stealing their stores of food and livestock.<\/p>\n

\"vanir2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In battle the Vanir are taciturn and immoveable opponents. The dwarfs and\u00a0J\u00f6tunn advance slowly and with grim determination, bearing down on their enemies relentlessly, and relying on their sturdy physiques and quality Vanir mail to turn aside the arrows and darts of their enemies.<\/p>\n

Dwarf crossbowmen will support this advance by finding a vantage point from which to fire their clumsy but powerful weapons, and shrieking valkyries & skj\u00f6ll riders harass the enemy advance picking off troops to weaken their will.<\/p>\n

\"vanir3\"<\/a>The Vanir player needs to master the best way of managing these different troop types to be able to best their opponents. Throw in a dash of magic and the Vanir can be a colourful and challenging army choice.<\/p>\n
