Background Story
After unifying Pendor years ago, the feuds between the former Kings began again and Pendor was once again divided. Uther Pendragon decided to return to Pendor but this time he wanted to set the base of his operations around Singal by helping the initial hostile Eventide patrols and also siding with the D'Shar Principalities.
In open field battles he mastered the usage of polearms & two-handed weapons while in sieges as a defender he become highly proficient with bows.
Uther's amazing fighting skills & determination earned him the prestigious title "Grandmaster of the Knights of the Eventide" and as a D'Shar vassal he was awarded Ishkoman & Rela Keep that he retook from the Empire (he was actually denied Rela Keep and revolted so that he could assign the surrounding villages to himself and then returned to D'Shar as a vassal again).
CKO - The eXilition Knights
He established a powerful Knighthood Order inspired by the Omen Seekers, riding fast horses and acting as a "hit and run" cavalry force. The Order was mainly used for defensive duties protecting the villages of the D'Shar from hostile Lords and also defending towns/castles.

Companions
Uther carefully picked companions that would mainly be focused on training his CKO but also contribute in battles by providing them with exceptional equipment.
Sir Jocelyn - Sebastokrator Jocelyn
Uther's most prolific companion, after being mistreated by the Eventides he found a new home and offered his amazing training skills in return. Due to the fact that Sebastokrator Kaspax rarely spawns, Sir Jocelyn decided to cosplay as him.
Sir Alistair - The Eventide Knight
Since Uther decided to equip himself as D'Shar Lord, Alistair received all the Lordly Armor from the KO rewards, the champion horse and related Eventide items.
Ediz - The Noldor Twilight Knight
As always Ediz proved to be a lethal horse archer, and received Noldor related items. Due to his outstanding performance he was rewarded with the mythical Duskfall.
Sigismund Sinclair - The Hero Adventurer
The most fearsome companion of all, riding a heavy netherworld charger, shooting bolts with his masterwork light crossbow and decimating his foes with his Ruby two-handed sword.
Frederick of Mettenheim - The Forlon Hope
Freddie is the only dismounted companion in the party, but he is still a threat with his heavy armor and his Saphire two-handed sword. He made good use of the sword by dehorsing a demonic magnus and then taking him out during a fight with a heretic spawn.
Boadice - The Veccavia Knight
Exiled from her own home, she was hired in the party to take her revenge. When Verante Kruus engaged Uther's party, Boadice was eager to fight and emerged victorious.
Donavan - The Barclay Conquistador
Hailing from Barclay and equipped with related items he trained Uther's troops with great determination and efficiency.
Alyssa - The Serpent Priestesses
Heavily influenced by the Serpent Cultists she was equipped accordingly and terrorized her foes with her deadly kiss.
Kassim - The Windrider
Dressed and equipped as the mighty Windriders, he made a difference in the field by proving to be a proficient horse archer. He is a bit "Salty" for not getting Noldor equipment like his buddy Ediz did.
Riva - The Falcon Knight
A versatile character that can be built/trained in numerous ways, it was decided that the Falcon way was more suitable for her.
Sara the Fox - The Scorpion Assassin
The fastest rider across Pendor lands, an efficient looter and also proved to be a decent fighter with her balanced assassin knives.
* Lethaldiran was hired to frequently train the CKO and since the Knights have been maxed out ( + 6 upgrades) he is now being sent non-stop to further improve the sergeants.
Fiefs / Income
Ishkoman was besieged numerous times by the Fierdsvain/Empire but was never taken. Due to it's layout archers are vulnerable but high-tier infantry shines when defending the ladder. D'Shar Warriors / Bladesman proved to be great due to swing-only swords.
Rela Keep due to it's layout was reinforced with Empire Armored Crossbowmen in order to take out attackers while they were waiting for the siege tower to approach the wall. All CKO units produced from Ishkoman were transferred to Rela Keep in order to have a steady flow of troops from 1 garrison.
During peace average income was around ~ 5k denars from 1 town, 1 castle and 4 villages.
Conclusion
The game is still going on (close to 1900 days) and all factions are alive, but with constant wars going on there is still not a faction in a clear leading position. The D'Shar/Empire/Fierdsvain have been fighting with each other non-stop while Sarleon are at war with Ravenstern most of the times.
D'Shar just finished a simultaneous war vs Empire/Fierdsvain coming on top and after that Sarleon/Empire/Ravenstern declared war to the Fierdsvain. There are high chances that the Fierdsvain might be wiped out in the following days.
