| Ynglinga Saga (Fanfic) | comment |
The Ynglinga Saga is a multiplayer After-Action Report spanning two run-throughs of Paradox Interactive's strategy games: Crusader Kings, Europa Universalis II, Victoria: An Empire Under the Sun, and Hearts of Iron II.The story begins in 1066 as a pastiche of the Saga of the Kings of Norway - the eponymous Ynglings. However, it rapidly diverges from our history, since the various kings are being guided by players with the advantage of hindsight. Norway becomes a Great Power, fighting with Poland and Burgundy for control of the Baltic Sea, Russia, and Germany. Its internal history also diverges, with the Yngling family expanding rapidly through the custom of counting all male children as noble, and giving them an estate, preferably in newly-conquered land. By the 1600s Ynglings form the entire ruling class of Norway, and are on their way to becoming an ethnic group in their own right, complete with The Spartan Way military training for their children.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The first run-through of Hearts of Iron ends in a nuclear standoff. The second volume begins with the Ynglings, two hundred years after not winning the Final War, inventing a time machine and deciding to reboot the universe and conquer the world properly this time. Or to put it differently, having finished the Hearts of Iron section and thus played through almost 1000 years of in-game history, the authors went back and started another similar game, with the Norwegian player taking up the Ynglings once again. It doesn't quite work, and the rebooted Ynglings end up being much Lighter and Softer.There are two versions: Original flavour, posted on the Paradox discussion forums and containing much side discussion by interested kibitzers and slanging between the players, and the backup, republishing the posts written from the Norwegian/Yngling point of view, with occasional comments by the author.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Action Girl: Anja Sigridsdatter (both of them). In fact, all the female Yngling agents are this, since they had to win a duel or two to get sent back in time. | |

China Takes Over the World | |
| Ynglinga Saga (Fanfic) / int_fd41610f | comment |
China Takes Over the World: Feared by everyone not playing China; occurs in the first run-through but is avoided by massive errors and liberal nukage in the second. | |
