The hills are alive with the sound of .... croats!
The new Duke of Tradgardland is leading a detachment of the Ducal army into the hills between Tradgardland and the Umstrittental. For a number of days now news has filtered back of farms being raided and animals stolen.Farmers report that the croat troops of the Imperium are in the vicinity.Finally local scouts find the croats hiding in the hills and a Ducal howitzer is deployed-
After some time and sweaty work under a midsommer sun the artillery crew have failed to flush out their quarry.Dejectedly they report back the Duke Ferdinand who consults with his officers and advisers.After fierce deliberation over a seven course banquet it is decided to attack the hill position with infantry the next day.

With banners flying and drums beating the assualt is on.

His Grace has much to be proud of with these troops. Can see why he;d want to lead them himself (although such is never done in St. Maurice). Well done. - Mike
ReplyDeleteNice! I like your little hills. And it's interesting to see more people trying out variations on vertical/horizontal hills.
