It is one of the most popular mods for Medieval 2, but is surpassed in popularity by Third Age: Total War. It combines bug fixes, many small mods, changes to AI and AI armies, more provinces, graphical improvements and many other campaign and battle map changes in a package aimed at providing a much greater challenge and more enjoyable gameplay. Stainless Steel was first started as a mod for Medieval 2: Total War ( v4.1 and lower), but it switched over to Kingdoms after the expansion was released.

2.2.8 Much more interesting Historical and Game Events.

It is more than a little ironic that the Catholic powers of Europe that have secured Denmark's future are now the main obstacles to seeing that future improve. Crossing the Baltic Sea is also an obvious option that offers the Danes several access points into Eastern Europe without having to deal with the Imperial forces in Saxony. No mortal army could possibly dream of approaching Norway or Sweden's northern reaches, making the region an ideal set of easily defendable homelands. So it would seem that both diplomatic and militaristic expansion are something the Danish Kings are yet to master.Arguably the most expedient move that the present King Knut II could now make would be to try to take the Scandinavian lands to the north rather than continue to negotiate with them. In fact, forging agreements of co-operative leadership with the Norwegian royal court almost saw an end to Danish rule over the Kingdom of Denmark itself.

With the Reich and other Catholic Kingdoms offering support against stubborn Viking pagans, the Kings of Denmark now enjoy an absolute authority that has never been seen in the region before.The Danes have no illusions that maintaining such authority abroad is an easy feat, having lost control of England within the last half century. Though the Vikings' fierce conviction in battle was a true asset, forsaking these pagan ways and embracing Catholicism is what has actually elevated Denmark into a true northern power. Exactly one hundred years ago, Harold Bluetooth, the Viking King of the Danes, embraced Christianity, not just personally, but also on behalf of his people. Denmark is a relatively new kingdom in the world of Christendom, emerging from centuries of paganism under Viking rule.
