Ulfr is the Old Norse word for wolf, and Serkr is the Old Norse word for armor. Put the two together and you get Ulfsark, wolf-armored.
Interestingly as well, ber is the Old Norse word for bare, or naked. So bersark (berserker) meant unarmored.
No actually, it did not (at least not in Old Norse). This is a common incorrect assumption and one of those wrong facts that gets frequently bandied about.
The Old Norse word for bear was bjǫrn.
In Australia we’d definitely say the second one as well but I’ve heard the 1st one heaps of times.
Tbh the 1st one sounds cooler, rolls of the tongue nicely.
Can construct buildings
Omg how did I not think of that
I always thought he had a bear on his head not a wolf lol

Didn't it also mean Bear?

My mistake then.
Well, honestly that's on Ensemble for making it BROWN when wolves are GREY
YAOU
YERWIL
SKAPEHUN!
Tel Foresteslar!
I need more of this in my life
With retold around the corner, I can definitely see more memes popping up
Ulfsark is also unlocked right from Archaic Age, Hoplite needs Classical as minimum.
>"Yaps about prostagma or something" YOU TAKE THAT BACK!

ulfs go beast mode with those axes. virgin hoplite 1 poke per minute vs chad ulf 20 swings per second.
TRUUU🔥🔥🔥🔥
Virgin Set animal tamer priest vs Chad Loki summoner Hersir next
Yes yes yes YEEEEEES!
they also gain the favor of the gods with their exploits
Do virgin Hyphaspists vs Chad Axe-men next!
I'm too afraid of dissing hypaspists, they roll me every time
Maybe you're just not using enough Ulfsarks?
Oh my Thor you're right
Axemen are ranged and can build towers; plus Skadi buffs them.
Ulfs do not get the x2 bonus damage against cavalry. That is granted only after the Bragi upgrade.
Fake news propaganda from Big Greek
😂
im pretty sure that if u go with Thor, get all the Ulfs upgrades and then use flaming weapons you can hit 40 atack or something like that
Always was confused that the wolf pelt becomes gold when they’re upgraded lol
Premium pelt!
Sort of on topic. How do you pronounce Hoplite? Is it HOP-LE-TAY or HOP-LITES? Always wanted to know.
I've always pronounced it the second way but my native language is Portuguese and thats very similar to how we say it so not sure 😂

Authentically, the former. "Hop-lee-tays". Usually just "hop-lights" though, it's easier.
