Any Pre-constructed Historical Battles for RUS ?

Peeking within the game, it does not look like any campaigns for RUS were published with Wolves at the Gate.

Are there any pre-constructed historical battles featuring them that come with that module?


I am considering purchase of the Wolves module but don't want just random skirmishes with an army list.

Not currently, but perhaps it will appear later as user content. Rus do appear in the Basil II campaign.

So far the following user content (downloadable in game) has been created for Wolves:

Thanks Richard.

I was watching some interesting documentaries on the early founding of Kievan Rus -> Russian Empire and thought it might be good material for a campaign.

I'll check back periodically to see if someone takes the initiative.
