What news from Dina?

and captcha ate my pic

rolled 11 = 11

Oh great,

I managed to be here when the thread is going on.

One thing had been bothering me while I read the archives.
We didn't do anything with the bandits we captured in the first raid, right?
We still have them locked up in dungeon? How many are there.

Perhaps we should give them a second chance as people, release them and recruit them into our small army or give them honest work?

>>16616062

Dina has been improving relations with at least the tully side (IE Catelyn) of Stark,

>>16616070

any bandits caught alive are sent immediately to the wall also IIRC most of them ran away

rolled 82 = 82

>>16616064
Loot the Hidden supplies and outfit our entire military force wit hbetter equipment.

Also, why haven't we ever hired mercenaries forces to defend ourself and stage raids instead of sacrificing our people?

rolled 23, 32, 26, 32, 18 + 23 = 154

>>16616064
derp

rolled 36 = 36

>>16616081
Really?

How about the man who gave us such a useful confession?
Surely we could at least free him and give him a place in our lands?

this was what was in the hidden supply, the barding and lances you can't do much with but everything else is pretty self explanatory

50 Steel Spears
100 Steel Swords
100 Shields
25 Steel Armor
25 Steel Barding
25 irontipped lances

rolled 4 = 4

>>16616064
Jeremiah's Watch should have been renamed.

>>16616095

he hasn't been sent you have deemed him worthy, and he was banditing to feed his family

he lives on a small patch of land with his family outside of the roost

rolled 57 = 57

>>16616115
Ah, alright.

>>16616109
LOOT IT
LOOT IT ALL.

I mean, take it all to the keep, outfit our force with whatever is useful. Sell the rest.
Hire mercenaries.

>>16616111

apologies i keep all of the records and uploaded the wrong pic

rolled 47 = 47

>>16616095
You mean the one we tortured? Do you not think he'd be better off at the Wall than living in our lands holding a vendetta

rolled 85 = 85

Time to do some drafting.
Our forces are weakened and we need more men lest we invite further aggression against our lands.

Also we should send our remaining rangers into the forests around Criin Castle to intercept their mail by shooting the ravens.
When they are still plotting against us, we should think about how to wipe them from the map once and for all.

rolled 73 = 73

>>16616138
I was talking about the one who gave confession against Lord Criin.

Dunno what about the one we tortured though.

>>16616157

the one we tortured is headed to the wall

the confessor is the one i was talking about

We should upgrade some militia to soldiers.
How many stags in a dragon?

>>16616173

210 stags is a dragon

Westeros cannot into base ten

>>16616146

your draft is successful! you gather 160 able men and women (dornish women are hard to dissuade)
how would you want Kelor and Slio to train them

rolled 66 = 66

>>16616206
>how would you want Kelor and Slio to train them
What do you mean?
As best as possible.

Also, start making a forge.

>>16616224

in terms of force allotment

right now you can train:

Archers
Swordsmen
Ironmen (axemen)
Dorne Spearmen
Spearmen

>>16616224

He means how would you like them split up, I think.

>>16616224

in terms of force allotment

right now you can train:

Archers
Swordsmen
Ironmen (axemen)
Dorne Spearmen
Spearmen

also we have a forge being built it will be done in three monthes

you could be build another one but that will take 6 months

rolled 73 = 73

>>16616206
Let's have 60 new shield, spear, and swordsmen, and 40 new Ironmen-style warriors.
The rest can be archers.

rolled 2 = 2

>>16616206
Well, what weapons do we have lying around?
I have no idea of the numbers.
They shall do as they see fit.
I would appreciate half-way round numbers, though. Filling the gaps where possible.

Also Bertrand shall look into them for the best and train them into rangers.
I'm thinking of them like Tanith-Scouts.

>>16616224
head-->table

rolled 86 = 86

>>16616242
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU
Well, I have to sleep, anyway.

May the dicegods be with you.
And remember: Winter IS coming.

rolled 75 = 75

No one answers my question why we don't hire mercenaries :(

Seriously, it is a good investment. We will use them to root out any bandits and defend ourself against the force which will come at the end of the year.
That way we wont lose our precious tax-payers.

Also, concerning the army that wants us dead. We know when ad where they will come from. How about preparing for them several months in advance by laying shit-ton of traps and ambushes?
Put Bernard and Slio on this task.

rolled 65 = 65

>>16616238
What is the difference between Dornish Spearmen and regular spearmen?

>>16616278
Our Spearmen are mere militia.
The Dornish have been fighting as a unit for some time.

>>16616278

fuckexpensive

>>16616271

Dornish Spearmen have better Morale, and are more effective against calvary charges

rolled 74 = 74

>>16616271
This

>>16616271

you call Slio and Bertrand to your study, in front of you is a map, and you beckon them forward

"Gentlemen, we have a large force coming in, i would like you to lay traps for them as they come in, stuff to demoralize them and also to ambush them on their way in.

Also Bertrand send some Rangers over to Criin Castle to shoot down ravens, i want to know what they are talking about."

>>16616271

you send out several men to look for interested mercenary forces, (takes a month)

rolled 50 = 50

Get the very best archers and have Bertrand train them to be rangers. So maybe that's around 10-20 men, which gives us roughly 140-150 to work with.
25 archers (not the rangers).
40 Ironmen
40 Dornish Spearmen
35 normal spearmen
Wait, so do the Dornish spearmen have any disadvantages? Or are they just better all around?

>>16616358
>>16616399

Great.
I guess we should conserve some money to be able to pay them.

Anyway, I am going to sleep.
Have a good thread OP!

Should we ask Lord Werth for the loan of some troopers?
I bet some cavalry flanking maneuvers would devastate those mercs.
How many of them are coming again?

>>16616425
100 swordsmen, 50 calvary and 100 archers to support

so 250 total

rolled 50 = 50

>>16616452
Can we send a message to Stark telling him about this bigass army coming through?

>>16616425
We should ask him and our son-in-law but maybe we should wait until the army is closer. We don't want to have to deal with feeding extra troops for any longer than we have to.

rolled 13 = 13

>>16616462
>>16616500
I'm worried Lord Stark will see us as a bit of a nuisance.

>>16616514
agreed, let's hold off on calling him unless the situation turns dire

how many militia do you want to train to be soldiers?

rolled 71 = 71

Let's make 80 men into soldiers.

Pay Day

you gather

300 from taxes

125 from trade with white harbour
75 from durian
200 from greyjoy

-75 dragons for your elite archers

625 dragons total yay

your coal mine is finished
your quarry is finished
forge shall be done in two months
the officer corps shall be done in three months

you take out 10 dragons and 30 stags to train your militia into soldier

20 archers have been turned into soldier archers
20 ironmen are now soldiers
40 sword are now soldiers

you equip the sword with steel swords better shields and steel armor increasing their effectiveness

it will cost 7 dragons and 150 stags extra to pay them

your forces are as stands


20 marksmen rangers
Slio's Men
Militia
10 trained archers
20 trained ironmen militia
20 trained swrodsmen

Army

20 Novice Archers
24 Novice Ironmen
41 novice swordsmen

rolled 46 = 46

>>16616681
So that gives us like 1300 dragons total, counting the 719 we started with?

>>16616719

derp you also have 75 Veteran archers in your military

>>16616724

625+719=1344 dragons

Hey, OP, don't we have a tower being built next to the iron mine?

>>16616757

yes my mistake it will be done in 4 months

How long till the invasion?
What direction are they coming from?

>>16616782


its about 8 months away and its coming from the direction of white harbor

your men have recieved three possible prospects

the Grim Fangs a group of 50 Dornish Spearmen for 750 outright and 100 a month

the Longwhiskers a group of 100 Bowmen from the east,1000 outright and 120 a month

and the Curved Blades a group of 25 Bowmen 25 Swordsmen 25 Spearmen and 25 Dothraki Calvary for 750 outright and 100 after

>>16616848
My vote is for the curved blades

>>16616848
Curved Blades, for certain.

>>16616890
>>16616880
But let's wait to hire them until closer to the invasion.
No sense in wasting any more money than necessary.

>>16616927
agreed, even though the curved blades have no monthly cost we still don't want to have to feed them for months when they aren't fighting

rolled 89 = 89

What now, OP?
What is happening with our kids?

>>16616949

sorrry its 100 per month afterwards

"dearest father,

after my brother in law Jeremiah got killed by Lord Stark, i feel not so welcomed here anymore, may you send up some additional troops

Eric Frey"

>>16617001

Scanning over the paper, you don't know what to make of it but the man that gave it to you look worried about something

rolled 39 = 39

>>16617001
>eric frey
Wait, is he the guy who took over Jerry's lands after Stark killed him?
the fuck does he want our troops for? Doesn't he have his own?

>>16617029

he married Lady Criin, he is now lord of whats left of Criin's Lands

>>16617052
Fuck him, why do we care if he feels welcome or not?
He's a frey, he has enough bloody relatives to support him.
What does everyone think about this?

>>16617067
The fact that he doesn't feel welcome is unimportant, the important thing is that he's asking the frey's to send troops

rolled 45 = 45

>>16617103
Derp, sorry, reading comprehension fail on my part.
Studying for midterms all day has fried my brain.
Maybe we should reinforce the western watchtowers and increase patrols?

>>16617121

You summon Kelor and Bertrand to you

"Men, we have a problem." you hand Kelor the piece of paper "there seems to be some discontent in Criin Land,i want you to start upping patrols in that area, something suspicious is going on over there, and i dont want to be caught with out pants down...again. Bertrand tell your rangers to continue intercepting missives, and to stay out of sight,"

>>16617121
It's all good, I'm working on a paper atm myself.

>>16617150
I can't think of anything to do at the moment, let's check on Callum and then our wife

"Honey," you say entering the bedroom" how have you been?"

"Besides the swollen feet, the mood swings , and the wierd hunger, then yes im just fine" she says sarcastically laying on the bed with a wet cloth on her head

"aww, im sorry" you say to her "is there anything i can do?"

"of course its your fault" she retorts, "but you can bring me some bread and jam from the kitchen."

you step outside and motion for a nearby servant to bring your wife some jam and bread and go to check on Calum, and as you approach you can hear some mumblings.

"three teaspoons of Thyme" Merwyn intones as you enter "ah! im glad your hear, i've been in contact with the citadel, and they think we could cure him of his dementia, but it requires some ingredients that might be hard to get."

>>16617265
"whatever you require will be provided for you if it is within my power to do so"

>>16617280

"well...you see" he starts "we need some very rare herbs, Dragon's Tooth, Atrophori Tears it will cost quite a bit..." he coughs a bit "The Dragon's Tooth itself could cost several hundred dragons."

>>16617265
Wait didn't Merwyn say in the last thread that Callum was a seer and that his dementia was just a side effect of that?

>>16617373

that he did, but that was before sending missives back to the citadel

>>16617397
so, what? he's not a seer? or he is a seer but needs the meds to clear up the dementia?

>>16617417

hes a seer, but the dementia is really ruinging his seer ability

>>16617351
"Before you said that Callum would recover from his dementia before by the end of the year. Are these herbs really necessary?

>>16617429
ah, I don' t mind giving him the cash he needs. We're doing pretty good between taxes and trade

rolled 99 = 99

>>16617455
yeah, this guy isn't some mountebank gypsy swindler, he knows what the fuck he's talking about.
Let's fork over the cash.

>>16617470

"Very well, give me an exact number and its yours."

"well..." he starts" itll be about 900 dragons for everything i need."

"Very well, herla will give you the funds, godsspeed."

1344-900=444

it will take two months for everything to get here

rolled 80 = 80

>>16617504
Bueno.
How is Ian's Fault progressing?
Is our forge and coal mine almost ready?
Is our daughter still making friends at Winterfell?

>>16617538


The coal mine is finished and your men have starting mining it out by the bucketful, once the forge is ready you can start casting steel.

and yes Dina is making friends up at the Starks

rolled 5 = 5

>>16617564
Is the quarry done as well?
I was thinking of building another tower.

>>16617602

yes it is, and where do you want it?

It'll cost 150 to build a stone tower, 100 for a wooden

>>16617622
hmm, we already have one going up at the iron mine, so let's put this one midway between Miller's Hill and the Roost, between the Iron Node and Gold Node.

444-150=294

"Very well m'lord, well get it up as soon as possible" the foreman says grabbing the bag of Dragons "You won't be disappointed."

"Make sure im not" you reply

Let's send a letter to Zachary and see how his training is going.

rolled 88 = 88

>>16617724
Forgot my roll.

Damn this thread is slow tonight.

>>16617724

"Dear Zachary.

How goes the training? it is good to learn that Weynwood is a just ruler. I hope he teaches you well, you are a Strongcock, there is nothing that can hold your back

Your Father, Skylar"

sadly im thinking of calling it for the night, there doesnt seem to be much interest

>>16617873
I'm interested!
But it's hard to have a quest thread with two people.
Sorry, OP.

>>16617903

its alright, ill try picking it up again tuesday

>>16617928

the time will be 6PM MST
