Ox cart.
What do you think about having the Ox carts being capable of garrison units (specially villagers and dwarfs) and make the carts faster when they have garrisoned units to run away of attackers? Just and idea.

They do not have enough HPs to offer much protection.

Cool idea actually. It might make Norse unraidable in early game. Just have additional ox carts near your vulnerable economy. With some balancing around though it could maybe work. Stuff like, longer train (build) times or making it slower the more units it has.

Why would they go faster with people inside? They should go slower, it's not like a battering ram where they're helping to push it. Plus, you already have an emergency anti-raid option: turning villagers into Beserkers. Not like the ox cart has enough health to actually protect anyone anyway.

I know that's why said it might need balancing and proposed some nerfs...

Imagine seeing 15 Ox Carts approach your main base as you quiver in fear of what is to come.
