How different will the Danes be from AFFO? Gamefound rulebook analysis and first impressions

About The Danes, from BoardGameGeek:

In 825, a band of Vikings set off on a journey that took them much longer than expected. In this epic worker placement game, you will explore and trade with new territories. You will also engage in the day-to-day activity of breeding animals, collecting goods and hunting with which to achieve a steady income and victory points. In the end, the player with the most victory points will be declared the winner. Starting with a small group of Vikings, your band and possibilities will grow with each round. But the demand of your community for food and taxes will grow alike. -description from the publisher
