against isis its very important to raid gold while prosperity is cast (especailly if shes in heroic). u knokw where it is when u see the little blinking dot on the map. raid alot then. if shes in heroic and has cast prosperity expect to finish the game then(or go heavy on seige)cuz she will most likely claim all settlements and make tons of rax units and seige to beat u. this is one of my most favorite strats.

I haven't played as Norse in a while (I was 1900 Norse), but one of the most effective strats as Norse right now is all RC. Just mass RC and hit and run. Don't fight his army at all, just raid- march right up and kill his farmers by the TC if need be. Hit his gold, his wood, his gold again. Destroy houses/towers. Once you have 20+ medium raiders, they are a force to be reckoned with- and his spears cannot catch them.
I also recommend that you don't go Heroic until you are at 115 pop w/upgrades- Norse are strongest in classical, and should try to do most of their damage there.

you should play odin. He is also a good rusher and has strong hillfort units who kill many units.
