I played MA Vanheim with Allfather recently. For an extra-fast start, mostly - with awe, he only needs a black steel shield to start conquering provinces.

He's a very good early-game SK, and later he helps you with his high death magic.
But this is a risky strategy, because Vanheim desperately needs to diversify - having no astral, water and nature sucks. I was really, really lucky to find lizard shamans in that game - if you take Allfather, try to find lizards asap.

Also, I missed earth bless, but its hard to squeeze both awe and earth bless on Allfather. With earth bless, girdle of might gives Vanjarls just enough reinvigoration to become tireless, otherwise they also need a rainbow armor.
