Or do you need an infantry to build the farms?

What unit do they use to build buildings?

they said in the Thor showcase, that villagers can't build building, but any infantry can. I think that will make this civ truly unique from the standard Age of Kings civ

I think gatherers will build farms. much like AoK 'cause you need to plant them. not build them. And having to build them with military units would take too much micro management.

Ya, having infantry build your farms would be silly. I believe farms are the only structures Norse villes can build.

Another reason to rush is i read somewhere in the late game Norse infantry aren't as good as Greek Hoplites for instance.

I think they are optimal for rushing. They have to use their early advantage in the game and hurt the player quick by producing a lot of infantry. If you miss that point, you
will die, Norse Infantry doesn't stand a big chance against Greek units in a late game battle.....

Sorry fr double posting, but I just checked up on the unit section and it says "the only buildings norse gatherers can build are farms", so the question is answered!
