*IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO THE KOIFISH WARBAND!* I have a BRAND SPANKING NEW DISCORD! I want to welcome you all to the OFFICIAL KOIMUNNITY: discord.gg/SEnSWKqDAv AS FOR THIS VIDEO = It's a BANGER! A true VARANGIAN ADVENTURE! Byzantine EMPIRE never looked this good! :D
There were like 5 near game-ending battles in this one video. And the video ended on a clifhanger before a major civil war. Koifish i gotta see the rest of this for SURE!
This reminds me of the New England were a bunch of English exiles settled on Crimea naming it New England. There's actually some flavour for this in CK3 so you should give it a go
1:59 this is an historical thing because the last lombard duchies of Benevento and Salerno were conquered by normans it's funny to think such a thing considering the lombardic people originated from Scania lol
About halfway through the video when you're fighting off 5,000 troops with your about 2500, You could have had your army just wait right next to them, until they siege down just enough to conquer it and then move in. This way they suffer more attrition and you can recuperate.
Great vid as always! I did something similar thing in CK2 back in the day. I created my own Viking dynasty and set out and conquered Crimea and began the kingdoms of Suðragautland and Hreiðgotaland and one of their descendants joined the Varangian Guard, seduced a Byzantine princess who we maneuvered to become heir and then sized the Byzantine Empire. It was good fun. Had intended to make and AAR about it but CBF hehe
Hey koifish i got a video idea for you try playing as hæstings and go to wales since its costal and has hills the longbowmen and costal warriors would work togter really well
Yes reclaim the roman empire.. But also on the east side of the byzantine empire in south Georgia, there's a culture for I think even better cavalry than cataracts., and if you get a khazar but of territory you might be able to also get horse archers.... The ultimate cavalry army 😊

JOIN THE GLORIOUS KOIMUNNITY!!
I would like you to continue. But show off the Wanderlust Renown Perk. Send your male heirs to join the Varangian Guard 🤙🏿🍻
literally every Koifish video ever... something somethin something HAESTING, something something something, VIKINGS. LOL SCHMUNK THEM! SCHMUNK THEM ALLL
Also, hybridize with the Georgians. Metalworking, Castle Keepers, and Caucasian Wolves are awesome tenets.
I'll join the koimunnity once I remember my discord account
The emperor's personal guard betraying him? The Byzantines really did continue Rome's traditions.
To be fair, the Varangian guard were way more loyal than the Praetorian guard
not including alternate timelines @@nevets2371
My jaw dropped to the ground when I realized you are not playing as Haestin.
There were like 5 near game-ending battles in this one video. And the video ended on a clifhanger before a major civil war.
Koifish i gotta see the rest of this for SURE!
I feel like the orthodox civil war may not fire given the final decision
bro sacked byzantium so many times this is just a return home to him
underrated comment
Happy to see Dyre the Stranger again after all this time
Drinking game: take a shot every time Koifish says "glorious" in this video.
Time for some glorious liver failure!
Or haesteinn
Or Viking
Norse Roman Empire? Sure, why not; not like the wheels haven't completely come off the wagon already!
Let's do it! Restore Rom!
If my memory serves me right, he's the only Genius ruler that you can play in the 867 start, besides creating your own.
"the numbers were simply too numerous"
-Koifish 2023
also missed opportunity to revive hellenism
Could have named it Hel-Enism and make it a merged religion.
Now this is getting serious, 5 videos in row without that man.....
I feel suspicious, our koifish had been kidnapped. #FreeKoifish
I love koifishes upload time because he posts just about when I get done with my day to day stuff and finally have time to sit down and relax
You said it best
It's about time Koifish did this 😈
19:02 bro was so varangian he came back from the death.
I love doing the Varangian culture vikings runs!
After the Western and the Eastern Roman empire it's time for the NORSE( Varangian) Roman Empire!
I would actually like a series for this
He has the power of Odin and tecknad serie on his side.
Glorious!
This reminds me of the New England were a bunch of English exiles settled on Crimea naming it New England.
There's actually some flavour for this in CK3 so you should give it a go
Not letting your varangian vets walk over bridges is so funny
2018 Koifish : Videos about Sea Raiders
2023 Koifish : Videos about Sea Raiders
Continue this series please!!!!!
Varangian Empire playthroughs are so much fun, let's continue this!
I would love to see a continuation to the saga
Will Haesting end up in this video, find out in the next episode of Koifish Z!
Also, restore the empire!
This one was great mate! Let's see where this one goes next
1:59 this is an historical thing because the last lombard duchies of Benevento and Salerno were conquered by normans it's funny to think such a thing considering the lombardic people originated from Scania lol
Varangian Guards Try Not to Betray Their Emperor Challenge!!!!! (IMPOSSIBLE EDITION)
The vqrangians were the Loyal Guards the pretorians were the Emperor murderer
Varangian guard betrayed Michael V Kalaphates
Now that the throne of Byzantium is secured, the varangian empire must restore the true glory of Rome ! To Italy and beyond !
I wonder what Koifish's favourite word is. Definitely couldn't be "glorious"
CONTINUE IT!!!!
The Varangian’s shall restore the Pentarchy! Deus Vult!
You could maybe do a sequel series and do a reverse Ottoman Empire and conquer Persia.
Would love to see the Roman Empire, but what would really be cool if you made the Roman Empire Hellenic.
Ooooo! Restoring the Roman Empire! Yes please!
Let's get this series started. Happy holidays Koyfish
Perfect morning vid thank you beautiful Swedish man
Gotta say I'm surprised he attacked the Byzantines outright instead of attacking the Bulgarians and working from there
Keep it going!
A Norse Roman Empire sounds cool af
Such a cute emperor with his feet dangling from his throne.
Do it! You know you want to.
I love the idea of a series out of this
About halfway through the video when you're fighting off 5,000 troops with your about 2500, You could have had your army just wait right next to them, until they siege down just enough to conquer it and then move in. This way they suffer more attrition and you can recuperate.
He really said on 15:00 "Gott im Himmel?", that was random
CONTINUEEEEEE BROOO
Who let Koi out of basement and get him bottle of Haestin' Juice?
Drinking game, but every time he says glorious, you take a shot.
Did it really say Balders balle? Lol. What mod is that??
Bro is insane fr
Definitely continue, this is a great idea!
Such an interesting concept! Hope theres a part 2.
Pt 2… Now!!!
I know what you did there 19:01 Koifish 👀
Great vid as always!

CONTINUE please
I'd watch more of this, but to be honest, I'd personally probably watch really any CK3 video you post
Dude pulled a Prigozhin on Byzantium and got a white peace- now just don't get on a plane!
continue bro! we are Varangians by blood, I'll try the same ❤🎉
I'm doing this with Carpathia and dismantling the Byzantines.
I need to see this fabulous Varangian Rome
go for it
This is such a cool video idea. Well done
Gogo. Restore the Roman Empire!
Please make this a series!
Anyone else wondering if this would have been an awesome story if it was Haesteinn instead?
All hail Dyre the Stranger, restitutor orbis
Roman Empire ! Kjøre på! Snääääla.
Religious protection and title protection. Always get both
First step should be reclaiming Egypt and the Levant!
I have watched the first half minute of this...
and the Mascottfish didn't say his happy "wuäää"... now I'm sad...
Become Byzantium, reject the greeks
"Silly Basileus" 😂
More!!!
Hey koifish i got a video idea for you try playing as hæstings and go to wales since its costal and has hills the longbowmen and costal warriors would work togter really well
Right as I was thinking when I did this I had my title revoked, he tried revoking your title, lol.
Retcon the conversion to orthodoxy and convert to hellenism!
Third Rome arguments in this timeline are going to get even more absurd.
nice intro xdd gj editor
Get recked Romaboos, real Viking Chads are here 💪😎
Vikinga imperiet!
Ah yes VARANGIAN conquest 🗿👌😎👍
Keep going
Restore the Roman Empire to its former Viking Glory XD
Steal all that’s not nailed down then steal the nails, true haesting manner
Viking Rome!
Viking Rome!
Viking Rome!
We must continue this journey, Varangian Rome and mending the great schism for the GLORY of not-Odin!
Part 2!!!!
series!
Roman Empire, lets goooooo
0:35 where is the panpipe music, missed opportunity. :D
Make it a series
Honestly you shouldn’t be able to sail through the Bosporus if you’re at war with Byzantium.
Yes reclaim the roman empire..
But also on the east side of the byzantine empire in south Georgia, there's a culture for I think even better cavalry than cataracts., and if you get a khazar but of territory you might be able to also get horse archers.... The ultimate cavalry army 😊
I knew this would come eventually
Romanum imperium expugnatum! Hail!
The Roman viking empire with all territories of Roman and viking empires
make a series!!!!
Alas means "regretfully".
Muy buen video
