I think so; only problem is that Vanheim doesn´t have any archers.
Originally posted by PvK: Indy shortbowmen are one of the most common units though, and don't require many resources to build, so you can usually get as many as you want.

Right; though I usually dislike building non-fortress units; slow and messy.

Well, you could always PUT a fortress there. Then it wouldn't be so slow and messy! True.
Otoh, High Admin Fortresses are expensive. And I don´t think Low Admin Fortresses work well with Vanheim.
On the third hand , my strategy is going to mostly work around all this. I think I´ve discovered a way to play even Vanheim acording to my usual Grind-them-down style.
