@Lexicon

An impressive post in both length and quality. You make quite a first impression, my friend.

Thanks, Vahir. I appreciate it. I'm a bit of a perfectionist so I'll probably still tinker with the wording and phrasing every now and again. Except the dialogue, of course, because that would throw off whoever posts after me. Anyways, my rambling aside, thank you and I'm happy to be a part of this RP.

@Eschatologist

Good post, but one problem I noticed while reading: 6000 is huge for a mercenary company. Plus, I've already stated that the main force- now retconned to 5000- will be 3/4 of the overall army, so the Night Hunters + the Grey Winds should come to around 1600 men.

From this, the Grey Winds could be maybe 1400 men, which is a more reasonable number.

Roger. Sorry I missed that. The mistake came from me basing the winds on a battalion, and basing it heavily on the armies of the Mongols during their first middle eastern invasion. I'll change things up immediately, though for ease I expect I shall keep the ranks at their now even more over inflated levels.

In defense of my historical accuracy, if not my reading comprehension, the White Company, another major influence, frequently fielded 5000-6000 troops, and it was only one of many such companies in the relatively low-population high medieval Italy.

For my own ease, could I get the number pushed to 1800? I just need it to be divisible by 6, is all.

@VahirUh, so there're two hundred soldiers in the Night Hunters? I can work with that, I guess.

Sure.

Well, they're not an army, they're scouts and saboteurs. A couple hundred is quite a lot for that kind of organization.







For the record, if you guys ever disagree with me, feel free to give me shit. I'm not one to shut down ideas.

Will do. Though, I am pretty much on board for this change, I think it will do me just fine. If nothing else it gives Claes room to grow her command.

@VahirWell, yeah, it IS quite a lot, but I was surprised, as I had only two dozen in the Night Hunters, originally. But this will work better, for an army setting, I suppose.

And here, have some, my treat. ;)

Planning on wrapping up Claes and Myra's meeting in my next post with Eschatologist's approval of course. Then we can move on to tavern shenanigans or the next morning or whatever. Should have a post up at some point next week.

Personally, I'd like to wait for Dblade, before we continue.

Oh I figured but I just wanted to say that, barring other plans y'all had, Myra won't have much else to do after Claes and her finish talking. So, you guys can do your stuff and then we can move on whenever everyone is ready.

I thought you had to say his name three times to summon him.

Right that's my post, lemme know if I've forgotten anything! I've been wondering, what is Wolong's official position? Other characters have referred to him as a General, and he was one (among other things) back in the Qaylu Confederacy, but I'm not sure if he has an actual military rank under Oromis or he's just one of the primary tacticians/advisers. Also hello to @H3x's Spymaster! Wolong will have to get to know you quite well considering his backstory involves having his old life destroyed due to not paying enough interest to the intrigue side of things and he's rather taken the lesson to heart!

Hm, I think it'd be best if, for the big meeting, we all pitch in on a pirate pad. So we can avoid awkward one-sided interactions.

Meh, I like keeping my dialogue to myself, in my posts. I'm not against collaboration, but I don't really like it, in dialogue.
