They should just get Harryhausen onboard and do the sequel to Clash he wrote all those years ago about the Trojans but couldn't be filmed because it was too special effects intensive (stop motion wise).

[Brainstorm] What would you love to see in a game of Planar raiders or vikings?
Continually I find a lot of interest in playing Vikings that scour the planes for loot, grog, and adventure. Essentially the Norse Eddas contain everything that D&D players would love to play though. Also Eric the Viking was a fun film. So with that note what would you love to see in such a game?
