My brothers in arms!
It is time once again for us to gather for our yearly meeting to discuss what threats there are to the land, how they shall be dealt with, and of course the boasting of the maidens you have rescued whilst on your adventure!

Someone let robes in again.
Shoo robes.
Shoo.
You have always wanted to be an emperor. That ambition has burned dimly in the past, tempered by reality. Now the opportunity to realise your ambition has arrived and you are determined not to let it slip. Now is the time to build your empire and become an emperor.
Last Thread: You are the mercenary spellblade Saul Waise, in command of a mercenary company that is currently seizing a large amount of territory in the hopes of forming an empire. You fought off a siege last thread.

Rolls are d100 and the best of the first three posters. I may sometimes ask for more dice to be rolled by each player, but same rules apply otherwise. Please quote the post you are voting for or rolling against. Note there are hard-to-replace points that can be used to offset failures in rolls. Additional dice mechanics will be given a GDocs later.

>Opening with a brief update on recent politics
You keep your silence, looking over the map and considering the situation. Taour had previously been a relatively weak city-state – the city itself had been nearly completely destroyed in the first Magi Rebellions some twenty years ago. Since it had been rebuilt it had been controlled by vampires and, for reasons beyond your understanding, nobody had intervened to deal with them. Now it had conquered the city of Darlesia to the south and appeared to have somehow broken through the Vitrian defensive line to seize their capital.
“Sorry to ask this,” Gnome says, breaking the silence, “but this map has a few differences to twenty years ago. What exactly is the Magi League, as I doubt it has much in common with the original League from five hundred years ago?”
Your eyes run over the nearby superpowers, the Magi League and the Royal Seraphi Kingdom. “The Magi League formed eight years ago, when the Archmage Alyce of Lyss deposed the King of Ahm and the second Magi rebellions began.”
“Mmm, so little Alyce is an archmage now,” Gnome mutters. “I take it that the RSK has expanded its territory as part of their conflict with them?”
“More or less,” Cormann says. “The two powers have been in constant war for the last eight years. Valuable fodder for a mercenary company like ourselves, but it makes things harder as an upstart nation.”
You understood what he was getting at. Right now one of the easiest ways to gain more power to defeat Taour was to ally yourself with one of those superpowers. Unfortunately, if they were tied up in a war they wouldn’t spare you much and would expect your assistance in your war once you’ve finished up here.
“I find it difficult to believe that this Magi League would be so caught up in its war that it would ignore a vampiric city-state enslaving enormous numbers of people,” Gnome says with a frown.

“They’ve got support from with the League, according to what I’ve heard,” Maloric says. “Shropham has always been the black sheep of the League, but it’s powerful and appears to be providing clandestine support for the vampires. I understand they’re the reason the Guard aren’t intervening.”
Clicking your tongue, you look further north on the map. The Mage Guard was an odd nation, as you’d learnt in your youth in Balkarin. Although the cities and province were theoretically independent, the Guard controlled the military, set foreign policy and influenced just about every noble in their territory. Despite the name, they were all about controlling mages, destroying monsters such as spirit beasts and providing assistance to the archangels in defending the Barrier of Marie that stretched across the Magi Line mountains.
“If we’re going to ask for help, why don’t we try recruiting without getting an entire nation involved?” Ser Lynn asks, tilting his ask as he looks at you. “Surely there would be mages and knights who would rather destroy the vampiric threat than fight one another?”
“There’s also mercenaries,” Cormann says. “We know a few, and I imagine you know a few too. They’re likely receiving a fair bit of pay from the League and the Seraphs, particularly with the League beginning a new offensive, but we’ve got enough sequestered away that we could afford to pay them as much.”
The other alternative is to contact some of your ‘friends’ in the Guard, see if you can get some unofficial help. You’d rather not draw attention to yourself that way, however.
>continued
>>44287281
The other issue was this Lady Terce. “Do we have any idea how this Terce could thrall so many soldiers at once?” you ask your officers, referring to the ability of daywalker vampires to form mental control over others.
“I recognise the name but know little of her abilities,” Malaine says, glancing at his fellow Darlesian officers. “I know that Darlesian intelligence was in contact with the monks based in Farun, so perhaps they might know something?”
Your other officers mention their own ideas for intelligence: Maloric mentions a young RSK noble recently given land north of Worremburg; Gnome mentions the mages of Ahm. You even think of the Guard.
Still, you’re at a point where you need to make a decision. You don’t have to try to retake Vitria from the vampires at this point, but the longer you wait the more they will solidify their hold. Darlesia must be undermanned by the vampires to compensate for this new invasion. You could even ignore the situation – Taour hadn’t made any declaration of war (not that they would need to, given you’re not a real nation). If you threw your lot in with the RSK or League you could try something completely different.
>Strategic plans discussion
Note that you have ~1100 troops in Harrowmont and another 2k in Niorte and Fort Locke. All your elites are in Harrowmont. You can easily recruit more regular soldiers, but elites are harder.

What's the ideal combination of fashion, skirt and armor for a battledress?
>>44285562
You cover the body so you don't die. AFTER you do that, you add all the colorful martially-useless shit you want.

The girl in your pic seems to be doing it pretty well, provided she's got armor on under her skirt and has only temporarly removed her pauldrons because they chafe or some shit.

Every proper villain has them; a legion of nameless mooks, usually in face-obscuring masks, that exist primarily to be killed by the protagonists.

has anyone designed a "race to the objective scenerio with bikes heading from one end of a table to the other?
>>44280957
No, because that sounds a bit shit. Unless everyone involved is using the same stats, it'll end up being cheapest unit wins, because order spam.
>>44281040
Hard order cap. 3 orders per side, regardless of models? Essentially, much like GW's age-old Jetbike Race game, it'd have to be heavily modified.

Is Aurelia in Zendikar? If not why ist she there?
"About damn time I found a tunnel with some working lights. This cut should intersect with the main line and give me a straight shot to-"
"-Valdez and Emery."
Crew Boss Harper curses her heads-up for a few moments, but unlike Emery's robot buddy, it takes Harper's scorn without injury, and even though she knows better she can't help but think that it manages to deliver another jab when the bright bold letters flare across her vision.
STRUCTURAL FAILURE HAS CAUSED MAPPING ERRORS.
"I know goddamn well there are mapping errors. How deep is that slide?"
UNABLE TO CALCULATE. CONNECTION TO MAIN SYSTEM UNUSABLE.
"It's not the only thing that's unusable around here," Harper says to herself when another message flashes into being.
