My name is Unegen,I came from east,from the other side of the mountains,from the great steppe;my people lived there since immemorial times but great misfortune felled over my generation;long ago we were neighbors of the tribe called Khergits we were warring and trading betwen us until our great horde gatered and invaded their lands and the survivors left and entered Calradia,it has been long time since then but now a new wave of invaders camed to our steppes.
My family(or what I used to call my family:I was brought up by my aunt beucause both my parents died when I was very young)was living on the mighty steppe as nomadic horse breeders,we were also hunting wild animals (that was my favorite pass time),warriors from our tribe were going into raiding parties almost every year and came back with rich booty(I didn't had a chance to join them beucause I was to young
),everything was quiet until this winter:we were camping next to the Sacred Mountain when an unknwon group of warriors fall upon our unprepared camp,I escaped only beucause I was out hunting,when I heard the screams I camed back only to find foreigners savagely looting the rest of our encapment,driving away our herds and taking the survivors as slaves.I have not felt to much sorow beucause I wanted to leave since long ago so I turned my horse and with it turned my back to the quiet life.I wandered trough the steppes for a few days until I camed across a merchant caravan that was heading to a city called Tulga in Calradia,later they told me that it belonged to our ancient neighbours the Khergits that have a great khanate in the Calradian steppes.
After a few weeks of travel we approached Calradia passing through the mountain passes we entered a familiar but also diferent landscape(in the steppe I saw nomad camps but also from time to time we were stopping into vilages composed of huts made of stone and earth peoples here were cultivating plants something that we,the herders see as proof of poverty)and then we arrived to Tulga.It was a shock for me when I saw the city for the first time exactly beucause it was the first time that I saw one:thick walls were preventing outsiders to enter and guards were posted to each entrance.After a while the merchants went to sell their goods,whilst a guy from the escort guessing that I never went to a city explained to me how the things work;so I headed to the tavern and after a deep sleep I decided to take a walk on the streets,where I've been atacked by a bandit armed with a bow,that is also my favorite weapon so he didn't had the chance to shoot his second arrow before I killed him
as soon as the bandit was down a man problably atracted by the noise came runing and took me into his own house were he,probably astonished by my skill with the bow asked me to deliver his brother that was kidnapped by a group of bandits;as my purse was empty I accepted and after seeling the few hides that I had I headed out of the city in search of warriors that may want to join me,but aparently people were not to adventurous in the first vilage that I visited so I headed for another one were a tribemen decided to join me after that we ride to the next vilage were other 4 guys folowed us.
As we were coming back we meet a group of thieves that we promptly atacked
and defeated with heavy loses four of my five guys bite the dust;this was my first taste of battle and I kind of like it,so as I didn't had enought man left I went in search of new recruits in another vilage close to a town called Narra and after another five guys folowed me,we atacked another group of looters and defeated them
after that we ride directly to Tulga were I meet the merchant and after a short chat we left the town folowing a group of bandits that we dispached easily;one of them being taken alive gave us information about the place were the merchant brother was kept hostage,so we headed there and atacked by surprise freeing the lad from captivity.Once back in Tulga the merchant proposed me another job wich,consisted of helping him in defeating a band of outlaws that aparently were taking control of the town with the help of the head of the guards.I accepted again and headed out in the streets where the merchants caled his plotters.The fight was fierce but to my unluck I've chose a bad side of the street were the enemy was outnumbering us badly so after killing a few of them I was overwelmed and knocked unconscious,but the rest of us managed to defeat them and after I talked to the merchant I went at Narra where in the tavern I meet with a fugitive called Baheshtur that in respect of the nomadic custom have killed a enemy of his tribe.He was eager to join me so after the tradition of his tribe I handed him some salt(wich represent that I can take care of my men)and his first payment he joined my group.Now I have to wait that my wounds heal before I can do anything.
This is my first attempt to make a AAR I was inspired by other great stories around here;I'm also not native English speaker so my grammar and spelling might be a little weird.
Gameplay notes
my choices were:father was steppe nomad,steppe child,poacher,forced out;

I don't have planned anything but in general I want to stick to the nomad tactics and units

Some modification by me to the unit roster(Saranid get 2 horse archer units low and mid-tier,Vaegirs also get one mounted archer lev12,Khergits get a heavy cav unit level 25,Swadians have a complete new tree in order to represent Knights special training ).
