You're the brave Saxons, you control the lands of coastal Germania and are feared by all your neighbors, even the Romans failed to defeat you, but now poor Rome is falling and that means a new empire could rise... Maybe you?
Your producing Nickel, Timber and Copper
Your people are excited and wish to expand
Your buildings are lackluster
your technology is below the Romans
Your levies are 20,000 men
80% axe using light infanty
15% sword using infanty
5% medium infanty |

(Man, Saxons are like Vikings, only cooler, I think.)
If the Frisians to our West are as weak as I recall, it may be wise to overtake them. Their long coasts would be excellent for launching raiding ships. |

( Um no, Vikings are Norse, Saxons took over eastern Britain and the coast of Europe in the old days )
Freisans long coast will help a lot, how many levies do you plan on rising for this evenr |

(No I know who they are, I was saying that I think Saxons are cooler.)
We'll dedicate 5,000 men to the Task, 1,000 of which will take the form of smaller Warbands, 100 men strong or so, that will move ahead of the main body, probing the landscape. |

On the Warpath then.
Leave the villages as intact as possible. Feel free to loot the enemy's dead however. |

| Hm. Little need for Backup then, it seems. Have the main force fortify the Estate, and have the outlying Warbands move to the North and South, to screen for flanking maneuvers. |

Your flankers are met with skimisers who manage to pull off a succesful sneak attack.
The one village you took has some pissed off villagers |

Have half of the Warbands withdraw closer to the Main Encampment, and the other half attempt to seek out the Skirmishers.
I'm not opposed to simply cutting the villagers throats, make that known. |

You loot their men for weapons and their fields for food to feed your troops, all is well.
You head into advance position, the Frisias will protect this place with all eir might.

In order to face your army they have raised their entire levy of 12k men to defend the other.
You'll need siege equipment to take the capital. |

Hm. They certainly intend to put up a fight.
Very well, dispatch another 10,000 of our Levy to aid the battle.
In the mean time, the main force will lay siege, blockading the Capital. Sack and Burn anything nearby, outside of the walls of course. Have the men pitch extra tents and light more campfires, to make our force appear larger. This should dissuade them from attacking us outright. |

Your troops expand greatly and begin to make equipment for the siege |
