B.

LEAD THE FOMORIANS INTO BATTLE ! FOR GLORY !

[Taricus]

Ooohh, I forgot about the hurthling slingers. That'll also help, especially since it's not likely that the enemy could notice them!

[flazeo25]

B , also have spy watch the marshel he might be plotting against us with Alexdenra.

[somemildmanneredidiot]

Hmmmm.

A

Because we'll be in a better position to handle diplomatic relationships, such as gaining military allies.

Our Army is likely 6 due to the losses from bandits. We might end up needing to see if our friends east are still interested in that marriage.

[Haspen]

You decide to once again take up your sword - well, mace, this time - and protect your lands from foreign invaders.


Congratulations! Houlandin II embarks on another military campaign!

Like before, all important nation events will be handled by the Queen Mother and the advisor.


Within three days, you are ready to embark from House of Lech, the largest fortress of Luathbas meet with the marching army of Queen Alexandra, who made quite big inroads into your Kingdom; she dispatched only small fortress to besiege border outposts, while the bulk of her army is moving northwards, pillaging and razing villages at they go! It's clear that she is carving out a path of destruction toward the heart of your Kingdom rather than trying to gain ground.

A) We shall draw them and then wait them out at House of Lech!
B) We gotta stop the advancing army with our own forces!

B. If she wants a battle, she shall have one! DEATH TO LAMETANIANS!

MURDER TIME

[Haspen]

You agree to meet with Queen Alexandra in battle!

By the next day, both your and Lametanian armies meet at the Fields of Aidach, area known for its large flocks of sheep. This time, the meadows are occupied by the hordes of infantry.

The scouts have determined that Queen Alexandra's army is comprised mostly of regular spearmen, backed by archers. However, the core formation is made of shortswordmen bearing also large square shields and with javelins tucked at their backs; their shields seem to bear the emblem of their nation, a golden eage perched atop a knotted ring. Furthermore, there is a unit of men using some sort of mechanical bow, and they have a yellow-striped black banner that does not look like Lametanian at all.

"This is a crossbow, my liege!" Points the Marshal. Then the signal horns come from the south, and its time to clash!

"Shall we go on offensive or shall we hold the hills, my liege!?"

A) "Attack, attack!"
B) "Hold our ground!"

[crazyabe]

B. we need them to Grind off some of their Strength before we CRUSH THEM.
Besides The Fomorians Seem to be REALLY GOOD at holding somewhere as their own.

[somemildmanneredidiot]

B

That is definitely a solid defensive formation they have. Also high ground is best ground.

[Taricus]

B, we have the high ground, let them come to us. IF they don't come we can hurt their morale by throwing insults at them!

Reckon it's that republic that's helping them out though, given their previous involvement in Lametania.

[Haspen]

Such a defensive action prompts Lametanian cavalry and their heavy foreign swordsmen to attack!

The swordsmen advanced with their javelins drawn, then throw them from a distance before wielding their swords and attacking with the cavalry storming from the left flank. Then, once the foreigners seem to notice the Hurthling slingers and your Fomorian guard at the rear, start with war cries:

"Purge the non-humans!"

"Death to traitors of the Father!"

4*

The charge causes some casaulties amongst your men, but the enemy charge quickly losses its impetus, and descends into heavy melee situation with the foreigners and your spearmen and axemen killing each other in droves.

Unfortunately, during that time, the unit of Alexandra's allied crossbowmen managed to reach the flank of your army, comprised mostly of infantry!

2*

Their mighty mechanical bows shoot deadly bolts, scoring one dead Luathbas soldier per one projectile.

"Sire! Our flank shall collapse if we do not supply it with soldiers able to counter these crossbowmen!"

A) Send in the Fomorian Guard; it is small but Fomorians are damn tough, they might just reach the crossbowmen and wipe them out!
B) Send in the Hurthlings, they're small, agile, and can kill enemies with their shots just as well!
C) Send in a spare formation of Luathbas infantry; they will overpower the enemy with numbers!
D) Send the Luathbas cavalry in a glorious, blindingly-fast charge.

[TempAcc]

The cavalry is best left for more important assignments, but the hurthlings don't have the armor to handle that kind of shit and survive, even if they're agile, these are crossbows we're talking about.

A

Send in ze fomorians.
