Hi,

Translating Old Norse to English can be daunting, but for starters
you might want to download Ross Arthur's ENGLISH-OLD NORSE
DICTIONARY at www.yorku.ca/inpar/language/English-Old_Norse.pdf. His
dictionary is not as comprehensive as it could be, but if you use
its search box you will find words for "warrior" and "war-force."

Others in this group know far more about Norse than I and probably
will give you more specific help than I can.
