Vikings 780 or 790?

I'm seeing both start dates for this army. In game, the Vikings start date is 790, but you see 780 in the army list for Wolves at the Gates. I'm sure it's no big deal and that they are they same army, I just noticed that I can't set up a match using the 780 army I was assigned in the digital league. Looking through threads, I see the Vikings referred to by both start dates.

It is 790AD in the game so use that. I will amend it in the FOG2DL threads.

stockwellpete, I figured they are the same army, I was just making the publisher and developer aware of the discrepancy. I'm assuming it's either a typo or that they changed the date somewhere along the line and forgot to edit their army lists.

Just clarify this for everyone; are you referring to the list of armies on the Wolves at the Gate store page? Or something else?

Yes, the store page here and on Steam show a 780 start, while the "in game" date is 790.

mgardner's awesome Field of Glory 2 Army List Descriptions does have the "in game" start date.
