Well, you've got two 'eras' of Varangians. Original Guard was 6,000
Kievan Rus. Obviously ESU Mercs, right? Then about 1070 they switch
to mostly Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Dutch due to Willy the Bastard's
downright unneighborly stance on armed Anglo-Saxons and Danes.
I guess as a compromise Scandahoovians would do, but I just like the
idea of NAC Marines. . . Or maybe NAC ex-Marines. :)
