It's immaterial to anyone that one genocide happened in 500AD and another happened in 800 (or 1066, etc etc). The Vikings imposed themselves on Britain because they could, just as the Jutish heathens did ten generations before. "Right" and "wrong" here isn't even academically interesting, it's hairsplitting in service of an ideology just as stiff and somehow more stultifying than left liberal democratic religion.
I was just thinking more in the context of the posited game. If the game were taking place in 500 A.D., then clearly the Celts and Romans would have been the good guys. But this game is taking place centuries after that, were in people having nothing to do with the wars of the past are getting invaded by a brutish enemy.
