4 X Recommendation, Please

Yes Discourse I do want to continue this old conversation.

Though I’m not sure I am looking for a 4x game.

What I am looking for is a game that approaches the Norse invasions of the British Isles as I understand them from Cornwell’s The Saxon Tales. Where you play as the Danes, landing in force, having to move fast and take territory to build your reputation in order to attract more warriors to your cause before the Saxons organize an overwhelming response?

Definitely not a Baldur’s Gate-like experience ala Expeditions:Viking.

Maybe the Crusader Kings II dlc The Old Gods is as close as I can get.

But is there a Total War game/DLC/Mod that approaches this kind of game? Or some other game folks could recommend?

Yes, there is a Total War game, Britannia:
