    At sea the wikings would win, because knights and horses dont swim very well with armor on.

    On land I think the nights would win. Wiking fighting tactics primarily consisted of a mad charge at the enemy, Cavalry is a bad target for that (they can ride faster than the attackers can run), and the flintlocks would be useful in breaking such a charge killing many in the front ranks so those behind have to clamber over their corpses (that tend to take a lot of spirit out of the surviving soldiers).
