January 14 - United_Roleplay Shield Wall Event: The 2nd Battle of Adlers Ridge

[gaham1]

You know the events Don't have to be historically correct right...

AMEN TO THAT.

 

[Knüppel]

Mercenaries weren't a professional army. They were just professional soldiers.

I'd like to historically accurate this statement, as mercenaries were compared to the peasant mob forces of the landlords and knights:
Mercenaries, no matter how professional, were just those who actually got paid for fighting and were not just forced to. Mostly because they brought own weapons.

 

[Splintert]

All soldiers provided their own equipment I believe. This is why only nobles had horses, they were expensive. Mercenaries were the groups who were not bound to a lord, they hired themselves out for foreign wars.

Why is it always shieldwalls?

You may be bored, but the population keeps increasing. It seems to be a very popular venue, and may hold part of the key to unlocking the potential of this mod.

 

[Domhnall mac Raghnaill]

Event today!!

 

[John Frederick]

Still on everybody! Getting all set up, all officers and generals please hop into the PW teamspeak!


In other news, Domnhall will not be attending today, so Brocoli will be in charge of the Imperials/Loyalists.

Unfortunately, he did die in the battle.  Just make a new name and claim you are a veteran of the war (Traditionalists of course!).
