The geats where the original owners of Götaland and the south of Sweden before the Danes and Swedes even fully settled.
Archeological discoveries date them further back than these two parties.
Also the Geats earned that name once they seperated from their old kingdom of Gotland known as the Gutes, creating to seperate kigndoms in their wake until the Geats took over the Gutes.
The land the Geats owned was Western Sweden, Eastern Sweden, Southern Sweden, and small bits of land in the north.
The geats signed a treaty to join the Swedish kingdom and become Swedish under the condition they where allowed to keep their original faith and culture, Christianity pretty much killed off the majortiy of it all but some survived and we are still discovering more today of this once great kingdom of warriors.

Hey i downloaded the mod but Beowulf and the Geats arent showing up on my leaders list any suggestions?

@GreenJack

Any chance you could get me the logs? Specifically the files called database.log and lua.log (search windows).

You'll have to have made the bugged game in question your most recent (so if the last time you played wasn't this game, go boot it up and get the logs).

this, Lungora's North Sea Map, Barbarians Evolved, LS Civilization Set XI

@GreenJack

What mods are you using

Neither the Tegn nor the Mead Hall exist for me, as they don't show even when i have their technology. What do i do?

I! AM! BEOWULF!

Best line in cinema history....

@RagnarIronFist

Wouldn't make sense to give the Geats a "viking ship" as they are mostly pre-viking and weren't really prominent like the Danes, Norwegians and Swedes.

All mod support is in the description.

Also there is a compatibility patch for YnAEMP?

Hi thanks great mod, just a question is there a way to add the viking ship to this civ?

@ianandsue5

It was difficult to find more than a couple Geatish settlements such as Skara so I had to go with the petty states of Smaland and some modern towns that dated back far enough.

@Kappatalism

That was a bug and is now fixed, along with the LS bug.

You should make it to where you can upgrade the Tegn to Longswordsman and have all the xp perks move with the upgrade! I was a little surprised when I researched Steel and wasnt able to make them into Longswordsmen.

@borussia1979

Can't really help you unless you post error logs.

ИГРА ВЫЛЕТАЕТ :-(

nice

Now, if we only had the Svear (Viking Age Swedes) to go with these guys...Sweden's present-day territory was divided between the Sámi in the far north, the Gautar (to use the Geats' Old Norse name) in the south, and the Svear in the middle. Using very-much-Lutheran Gustavus Adolphus in the role of a pagan Norseman? I don't think so... we've got two-thirds of the story between your mod and Leugi's Sámi mod. I'd add the Svear myself, but can't do original art or pick decent music.

@Hiram

Will implement a number of updates/changes this week including for that.

Beowulf's leaderscene isn't showing up in-game :|

And we've got a new Scandinavian civ, led by a Liam Neeson-ish clone :) ...

that's cool, now to fill the map with monsters and dragons and this Civ is perfect!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!! I am SO pleased to see this; I've been looking everywhere for these Fellows!!!

Cool mod. Do thry spawn with TSL in Scandinavia?

geat gud.
