| I would love to hire some citizens from the local inn. See if they will accept cheap prices to invade the nearest city, Birmingham. |

The local inn has a variety of peoples to offer. Currently residing in the inn are:
50 Swordsman Recruits (280 Gold)
75 Light Archers (600 Gold)
20 Mercenary Cavalry (1100 Gold)
All of the soldiers seem to be in high spirits after a drink, and talk of Birmingham as fair game. |

You march on Birmingham. Soon, you are camped outside the city's palisade. The band's morale boosts upon having the new soldiers to fight with them. Each soldier is outfitted with standard bronze equipment.
Morale: 60/100 (+10)
Supplies: Average
Wounded: 0
Quests: None
Gold: 2020 (-1980)
Now, we shall discuss battle strategy.
Will you lead from the front or the back of the siege?
Where will you place your troops?
Construct siege equipment? (-200 gold, -5 morale points) |

I will be the first man to attack the enemies.
My troops will be placed on each side of the fortress.
No, we are men. We can climb. |

You ride through Pura Wallia. What shall you do?
Morale: 50/100
Supplies: Average
Wounded: 0

Gold: 3300 (-1700[first wages])
@Danial
Archers stand on the palisade of Birmingham; you sit at the front of the right-side force of your army, and charge. Arrows fly around you, taking out several spearmen on one side. You reach the palisade wall.

I wish for my archers to move up for better accuracy, whilst the rest of my men climb the walls. (Including me).

@Lop
You rest in the largest tavern in the center of town. A rumor has been going around of a rival lord camped near the village. Would you like to recruit soldiers?
@Danial
You all find handholds on the rough palisade, and begin to swarm up the sides. The archers, crossbowman, pikeman, and sergeants wait atop the wall, ready to fight. When you leap up, a crossbowman with a shortsword and a buckler swipes at you, grazing your forearm.

You quickly finish off crossbowman with a swipe of your (erm, whatever) at his unprotected neck. You go with the division moving right, and continue to push the enemy off the walls. Howver, those that jump down into the center face less than stellar odds. The entire enemy force of shield soldiers, axemen, and pikemen are down there, protecting the fleeing civilians. The cries of dying men ring in your ears as you realize you made a catastrophic mistake.

| All of your survivors, including myself, meet up and prepare a jump down onto the armoured soldiers. If we jump down and slash, we could stand a chance. Also, I need the archers on the walls so they can aim down. |

@Lop
You hire the Shieldmaidens. A few of your men are... curious.
Morale: 55/100 (+5)
Supplies: Average
Wounded: 0
Quests: None
Gold: 3100 (-200)
Now what?
@Danial
As your archers fire upon the entrenched soldiers, you see your chance, charging downhill among their scattered ranks, you attack. You are met with great success and little opposition, though you do recieve a rather large cut across your abdomen. They are routed, and begin to flee.
Your Casualties: 155
Enemy Casualties: 161
Character Status: Minor Injuries x2, Bleeding

| Tell your most experienced and brutal warriors to kill the enemy survivors. I want the archers to take out the runners. If they flee and regroup they will launch another attack. |
