Heirs of the North

Description
The  are a tribe of Nordheimers. They control the central and eastern Highlands. The Vanir and Aesir have golden or red hair. They wear furs and straps and wield weapons of hardened steel. Some Nordheimers take wolves as companions and many of them are hunters, living in wooden huts, covered in fur and thick hides.

Strategy

 * Nordheimers deal high amounts of burst damage, from range and in close combat.
 * This is despite their mediocre health pool.
 * They usually attack in small groups, and have a lot of Archers.
 * Most of their Fighters use either spears or shields+swords, putting one-handed swords or sometimes spears at a severe disadvantage.
 * Utilizing shield breaking weapons or armor penetration can be very helpful.
 * Using shields and natural cover against archers increases odds of survivability.
 * The key in combat against this faction seems to lie in killing each of them quick to reduce their numbers and the incoming damage.
