Well, no one likes me enough to follow me but I've managed to make some progress. Kited the Vanskerry into the invading Sarleon army, which took care of them. Also dragged a whole bunch of lords leaving a feast into killing off one of the Mystmountain armies. Sadly, my army got crunched in the first wave and it ended up being a multi-part affair, so I didn't get anything out of it. But they did die. A bit later I managed to lure Mr. Slayer next to the king and a bunch of other lords near Ravensten and we managed to beat him. Well, my troops did anyway. I got cornered by a bunch of his elite dudes and cut down much earlier than I'd have liked, but we won. Sadly, he managed to escape. So we'll see him again someday, I'm sure.
We now have yet another Mystmountain army running around, a Jaku army, and some...purple guys. Some sort of invading landing party. Can't remember their names off the top of my head.
Anyway, we're making some progress at least. Hopefully enough that when war breaks out again we'll be able to take back some of the lost land. Sarleon managed to grab most of the eastern lands except Sendorfall itself, so we have a lot of fighting to do.
Thanks for the advice!
