Welcome to your throne leader of Estalia, only one country is your direct neighbor right now, others are a distance away, some are willing to allie but most aren't. Lead your kingdom to destroy your enemies or create peace, it is up to you.
Any questions? |
|
|
Just one...how big is my neighbor? |
|
|
|
Well.....X next to plan 1...let's get started |
|
|
|
oh you know, raiding neighboring kingdoms under the guise of bandits so as to gain land and military might...but with a power 5? no...2 or 3 maybe but not a 5 |
|
|
Oh yeah, forgot to mention that they are your allies, XD |
|
|
....well then....ok I'm a small nation correct? What is my population? what about knights?(horses spears and armor generally make those). And What kind of a land am I in?(forests, rivers, plains. basically I want to know what resources are at my disposal) |
|
|
Yes
2000
1000
mountainous, near forest |
|
|
hmmmm mountains...so probably mining, and we can get wood from the forests...ok I know what to do!
First, take the knights, have...eh 50 of them patrol for bandits. Then let's get a good number of the commoners...let's say 200 and have them begin mining for metals. send another 200 to the forest to begin collecting wood and shipping it back for construction at the town. Have both the wood choppers and the miners have a armed guard of 25 knights each. |
|
|
Your knights found a small smuggler camp, awaiting your orders, and you miners and woodcutters are very happy they finally get to work. |
|
|
ok ok...hmmmm...got it
first off have another hundred commoners or so go collect the excess rocks from the mines and use them to build roads between the mountain and the town, as well as one between the foresters and the town once the one from the mine is done. Have 10 of the fifty men circle around to the rear of the camp as sneakily as possible andd then charge the other 40 at the camp with yells and noise in a horseshoe formation(so in general it would look like this: C - l with C=the 40 -=the camp and l=the 10) |
|
|
OH! and get the knights to try and keep as many alive as possible! |
|
|
Your men kill 10 of them, 20 are still alive. The roads are finished. |
|
|
good good...ok with the wood shipped from the forest and all the excess stone we get from the mine...lets build a few houses.
Assign 50 people to begin build houses in the town. meanwhile, have a good 100 people or so go with 25 more knights to create a quary so the mine can isn't our only source orf stone. have the 50 knights bring the 20 smugglers here, I want to hire them. alos when the 50 knights get back have another 50 go out and replace that 50 as border patrol. |
|
|
Ok, everything is doing great.
Ready for another issue? |
|
|
yes siree bob lets see...50 knights out and 75 guard plus 50 resting...and the 550 commoners working so i have...825 knights doing nothing and 1450 people doing nothing...wait! 25 knights and 50 people start building a road to my allies....ok now I'm done |
|
|
A barbarian village is in your path, they have 2000 warriors, what do you do? |
|
|
barbarians eh? solike kilts and leather armor with iron weapons?...not to mention the fact that I only have 25 knights there...reinforce those 25 with 475 more knights as quickly as possible and get them ready for battle...let's see if supperior tactics and better armor/weapons will beat numbers... |
|
|
All the knights are there and ready to fight, any strategy? |
|
|
tactics, not strategy, strategy is for war, this is a battle, but i know what you mean. I want to try and confront the 2000 on a plain. I want for the knight to split into 3 groups 200, 200, and 100. the 100 will attack them head on in the center of their line then fall back and draw the fools with them. and when that line over-extends, have one goup of 200 hit them sidelong. meanwhile the other 200 will raid their village stealing women and children and buning it down. |
|
|
Ok....
Your group of 100 lost 10 men in the proccess, the first group of 200 lost only 5 and the second group of 200 lost no men, after about 300 deaths the Barbarians fled, back to their main tribe. |
|
|
hmmmm 15 for 300 not bad...however...(going to church be back in 2 or so hours) |
