After last week's successful Space Romans event on the fabulous Rome at War mod, this week the banners are being gathered on Vikingr. Vikingr has a cult status on Warband as one of the greatest historical mods of all time, and as a very quality execution of a mod concept. However, it may seem a but unapproachable to some new folks on the scene, and it's definetly time to re-introduce the populace to it. So, what is this event? It's the second event in the Space Event series, hosted and organized by the SW: Bear Force II community and BNS on other mods. There's lots of great mods out there that perhaps don't get the attention they deserve, and the BF II community is down for something new and fresh to do every Sunday. With that said, this event is probably not up to the standards of realism and accuracy some of the clans native to this mod are, after all it is going to be swarmed by loads of blaster wielding people. We would still however, invite everyone that isn't involved with the BF II community to participate in this event and have some fun! Our aim is to popularize this series of events through a different mod each week, and to eventually restore 200 player events to some glorious mods out there.
