7th Kriegstrom Platoon
Comprised of the most well-armed and armoured troops, 7th Platoon offers the meanest, fiercest and, given the mortality rate, dumbest soldiers to be found in the Black Company. A more bizarre collection of fighting men and women has likely never been seen. Down-on-their-luck heroes with a magic swords and brooding pasts like Cairsun; escaped slaves with a penchant for magik like Nissar; disgruntled veterans of the Nuemunster Legions like Corporal ‘Jack’ Marcus; Scarred Wildborn ‘Smiles’ (because fighting is really all a Wildborn knows); aging Skald huscarls like Hirstun of Ligh that should have retired long ago. You even have a mute rotten undead warrior, ‘Mask’, which is one even you haven’t heard before. Nevermind the fekking Dragon.

They’re your men (and women). Mercenaries, that kill for money. Warriors, with the right degree of pride and stubbornness. Soldiers, that fight for the man next to them. You never wanted this position, deciding who dies where. Dark Father knows it’s only a matter of time before you get them all killed.

The Fallen
The annals record those who have died in the line of duty under your command. Those whom you have failed.

‘Auntie’ Goodkind. Throat ripped out by a Grenn wolfman during the storming of Kresden.

Pietre Verdun. Struck down from behind in the storming of Kresden. No one saw where the blow came from.

Unhappy Sam. Mauled to death by the Grenn during the storming of Kresden.

‘Snake’. Summarily executed for disobeying orders. Members of 7th Platoon refused to elaborate further.

‘White Bitch’ Tara. Slain in the defence of the 7th Platoon campsite by Neumunster ambushers during the Northern Offensive.

Twice-in-One-Day. Skewered by Neumunster swordsmen during Day One of the Siege of Kresden.

’Kid’ Hewn in twain by a Neumunster halberdier during Day One of the Siege of Kresden.

Regrets-the-Rain Struck down by a holy weapon of the Chevalisse Paladin orders on Day Two of the Siege of Kresden.

Arlen Rivers. Thrown from the walls by a Chevalisse Paladin on Day Two of the Siege of Kresden.

Vendis Durvano Trampled to death in the mad rush to escape the Western Gate slaughter on Day Four of the Siege of Kresden.

Recap

It all comes down to this. Or several days of 'this'. Every choice you’ve made, every success and every failure. It’s all led to you and the Company fighting to stave off the marshalled strength of the entire Free Alliance from the walls of some northern town while you wait for your dread employer, The Necromancer to relieve you with his fell host. Maybe you fekked up somewhere along the line, but for the life of you its impossible to figure out exactly where.

You lost men, brothers. Some you didn’t know too well, it’s the harsh reality of your position as an Officer. A battle is one thing, hours of movement and running around followed by minutes of terror and screaming. One way or another, it's all over soon enough most of the time. Humans weren't meant for sieges, days and days on end of the same pants-shitting terror knowing it will happen all over again tomorrow, if they live that long.

You thrive in this hell, you and people like Bad Hand. You feel better now than you did before the siege started. But your lads... they're only human, you wonder how many will survive this. If any of them will. The butcher's bill grows steeper every day and you still don't know your esteemed employer will bother to keep you among the living. This is a tough time for the Company, the most desperate of measures are being taken to last out another day. Last night you killed a insubordinate officer who defied your Captain, and you still don't know if you did the right thing.

Perhaps half the Company now wouldn’t mourn your death, and those in the 4th Infantry would gladly give you that final, fatal nudge over a line you’ve been dancing on for years. But everything you have done, it's all been for the Black Company… hasn't it? Has it instead all been for Captain Kiranova? You’ve begun to wonder whether you would do anything asked of you by the cold-hearted queen of ice you love so dearly, even against the interests of the Company.

Or maybe none of the above is true. Perhaps you’ve always liked killing, and any moral hand-wringing done after the fact has been to assuage your own dark inclinations. You’re not just an officer, a cynic, a tired veteran of fighting for coin. You are a monster. But perhaps a monster is what the Black Company needs right now.

You have not shirked from any advantage to secure victory, to ensure that the Company survives. Black deeds, dark bargains, harsh choices. Your power quickens. That you will give in to the darkness has long been decided, all that's left to see is how much of Prince will remain once the bloody day is done.

The time of Prince's quickening has come. He has forsaken his soul and rejected the Law of the Gods and Man.

Several weeks before the Siege of Kresden, Neumunster Countryside, Trooper ‘Kid’

After being viciously assaulted by the overly hygienic Auntie ‘Goodkind’ you find yourself chagrined to be walking about the Black Company encampment wearing little more than some sandals and billowing white hosen that are far too large for you. Fortunately no one seems to care, it’s Saint Mattens Day and most soldiers are too busy getting drunk, high or in debt while at the same time also avoiding hard work like sentry duty or patrolling.
This mutual understanding, Troopers don’t get combat-ineffective fekked up and Officers don’t conscript anyone for anything but the most crucial of tasks, allows you to walk through the camp in your current state of undress relatively unmolested.

The growling voice of Sergeant ‘Bad Hand’ Hadrien stops you in your tracks. You understand that the Sergeant is an old friend of your Lieutenant ‘Prince’. He’s as mad as a loon obviously, chomping at the bit when sane Troopers would be cutting their losses and fighting another day. But he doesn’t take shit from anyone, which the adolescent in you admires beyond a reasonable degree. You don’t understand what he’s saying, but a senior NCO’s voice can quickly turn into unpleasant chores for a young Trooper like yourself.

”Fekking bitch.” The pavilion sized storage tent ruffles slightly. ”Do you have to bite so damn hard?”

”Heehee, I didn’t hear my favourite ape complain about it last time.” You get a chill down your spine, that voice sounds familiar. You recall LT ‘Prince’ staring down that crazy cultists lady back in the Palace…

”Yeah well, mouth was full at the time wasn’t it? Come here…”

-----------------------------------------------

> “…slut.” You have to be missing more than few marbles to dirty-talk any sorceress like that. [Bad Hand: Screw Loose]

> “…love.” Bad Hand caught the feels for the worst possible candidate. Someone crazier than him. [Bad Hand: Courage]

> “…babe.” Chicks dig it when you call them ‘babe’, right? [Bad Hand: Experience]

”Come here, slut.” Your heart leaps into your throat as the insanely brave but very mortal Sergeant calls one of the most powerful sorceresses on the continent a slut. There is complete silence from the tent for a few moments other than a low hum and ominous red glow. The last time you saw that red glow the capital of the mighty Neumunster Empire turned into hell from Below for a night.

”Ugh, nice try you crazy bitch. What are you gonna do, magik me? You know you like it.”

”Say it again!” The ominous red glow does not dissipate, but the hum does change tone. You don’t want to imagine what it looks like in there right now.

”Yeah slut, that’s what I want to hear.”

”Yeah, grab that and then… Ooo, say something really fekking weird!”/i]

”I-what? Ow, not so hard!”

”Say something fekked up RIGHT FEKKING NOW!”

”I sometimes wonder how a threesome with a Wildborn would work!”

”OHMIFEK YEEEEeeessss” Superior Syka’s screams die off, to the great relief of everyone within a dozen metres of the tent.

You hear the Sergeant growl one more time. ”…Again?”

You, and the half-dozen other Troopers and Supply orderlies who happen to be within earshot of the tent, find a good reason to be somewhere else.

You flee the crime scene like a guilty suspect. But if anything you were the victim here.
As you enter the storehouse that has become the unofficial HQ of the ‘Saint and the Sinners’ band LCPL ‘Murder’ Meriam spares you a glance in the middle of tuning her instrument. It looks like an Albani dwarf’s idea of a lyre, with far more strings and…plugs? Where do they run to? Why does a musical instrument require plugs?
”Seven silly saints slaughter sixteen sacrilegious Saracens…” Subaltern Saint, LT Prince’s unofficial apprentice, is busy practicing her vocalizations in the corner. You wonder, if you got your voice back, would it ever sound as sweet as hers? Probably not.
”Ah, the piccolo soldato finally graces us with his presence.” The tanned Sabari goddess you couldn’t take your eyes of earlier by the river looks all the more imposing in her full regalia and feathered cap. Her words are harsh but her friendly smile takes the sting away. She offers her hand to you. ”My friends call you Spicario, and you are carina enough for me to include you in that number. I am a new member of this band. In Sabari every campsite was full of song and music.”
‘Spitfire’ Spicario must have come straight from her wrestle with CPL Schuster, her unarmoured buttoned shirt is wet and sticks to her skin. It’s white and virtually transparent at this point. Even though girls are gross, obviously, it takes a moment for you take tear your eyes away as you shake hands.

”Maybe all that singing i why we ambushed your fellow countrymen so many time.” LCPL ‘Murder’ Meriam looks up and you and grins. Her grin is a lot less warm and friendly than the Sabari lady's. That said, it’s probably nothing against you in particular. Apparently she is this gloomy with everyone. ”Back from daydreaming pipsqueak? I wouldn’t waste your time with the ‘Kid’, Spicario. He’s alright on the drums but can’t hold his drink and is terrible at cards.”

”Drink? Cards?” Spicario frowns. ”How good go you expect a 10 year old to be?”

Pissing off a junior-NCO is never a smart idea. But this is band practice, not the parade ground. There’s an odd immunity granted here to the casual banter and mucking around that normally wouldn’t be permitted between different ranks, or at least not to the point where they might take it out on you afterwards by abusing their position.

At least you hope so.

‘Murder’ rarely looks anything except gloomy. It brings you some satisfaction to see her eyebrows rise at your gesture, straight from ‘Whisper’ Smythe, and then narrow angrily as you complete the gesticulation. ‘Spitfire’ covers her mouth with a surprisingly girlish giggle as ‘Murder’ leaps up and takes a step towards you.

Whatever ‘Murder’ was about to say or do, which might have ended in a modest display of violence, is interrupted as Saint pauses in her vocalizations and turns around.

”Kid, you’re here!” Saint stands up and gives you a warm hug, pressing your head against her midriff. Or just slightly above her midriff. ”Did Prince give you the day off? Poor man does too much work.”

You nod absentmindedly, lost in the comfiness of the embrace. It reminds you of a better, warmer time. A cottage on a farm with golden fields. Before the orphanage, before the war. Something almost like home.

”How are you, you little scallywag?” You pretend you didn't hear her, still unwilling to finish the hug just yet.

”Scallywag?! Did you see what he just… bah, nevermind.” ‘Murder’ Meriam grunts, she isn’t outraged but she is clearly annoyed that you have found a safe haven from retaliation so quickly.

”…well, this place isn’t the healthiest environment for a child to grow up. I mean, look at Bad Hand. No offence to the Sergeant.” Saint adds shamefacedly, breaking off the hug. She ruffles your hair affectionately. ”Still, I think Kid could one day grow up to be the best of us.”

”….I think Kid could one day grow up to be the best of us.”

Day Four of the Siege of Kresden, BELOW, Lieutenant Prince

”….I think Kid could one day grow up to be the best of us.”

”Where were you?” Your words seem to echo in the darkness.

The…thing before you is so vast your mind doesn’t really register it. Similar to how you don’t really understand how large a mighty mountain is, even when you’re climbing it.
It is at once so far away and so close that you struggle to comprehend the distances involved. Your eyes simply can’t see that far into the gloom. The only sound in the darkness is the clink of chains, each link larger than your dragon Asgorga, and the chittering the Dark Father’s daemon wardens. That, and your own voice. Weak and frail at first, then thunderous.

”When my men died, where were you?”

Flashes of all those you have saved with the powers of Below shoot past your eyes. Trooper Nissar, his mortal blow turned into a scratch, Trooper ‘Smiles’ You understand that they are not your own thoughts. But so many more died, you haven’t made it this far because of the Dark Father. You and your men have made it this far because you’re the meanest sons-of-bitches in the world, not pets of a fallen divinity. You see Pietre Verdun and all the others you have lost, facedown in the Kresden cobblestones. You see Kid shaking on the ramparts, struggling to get air into lungs that simply didn't exist anymore.

”And Kid? Pietre? Durvano? Why didn’t you save them? Was the price I paid for your favour not enough?”

The growl that emanates from the imprisoned leviathan shakes the room. A million chains clink and clatter as a God strains against its bonds. The warmth of a furnace washes over you, promises of retribution and torment if you break your hellish bargain. Promises, but nothing more.

”…are you really so powerless?”

”Careful, brother. No need to poke God in the eye.” You cannot see Page #137, but the daemon-child sounds nervous for once. You could get used to the murderous little shit sounding nervous.

“Goodbye, Dark Father. I guess I’ll see you in Hell.” There casual dismissal does far more to infuriate this chained deity than any tantrum or promises would.

The roar of the Dark Father, patron God of Blackguards, is deafening as you turn your back on him and walk in the opposite direction, towards Page #137’s voice. The whole world, if indeed Below is a world in and of itself, trembles and quivers. The ground cracks and cold iron creaks as mighty chain struggle to contain the Dark Father’s rage. Daemons and who knows what else (for the Father is not the only thing imprisoned here) all around you shriek, cower and wail in fear. But the chains have held for millennia, they aren’t going to break despite a Mad God’s fury. Not today at least.

”Your mortal soul is at stake inn Below, in the prison of daemons and worse and you… spit in the eye of a God and then make a joke?” The daemon-child’s voice is incredulous. ”Sometimes you mortals terrify me.”

”It wasn’t untrue. My soul is forfeit when I die.”

”You mean -IF-.”

IF you die. You like the sound of IF. You can feel something in the darknes change as Page #137 gathers energy, you can feel your perception of the world begins to change.

”So eager to leave Below for us filthy mortals, #137?”

”I always forget what a dump this place is.”[/i] You can almost hear Page #137 shrug in the darkness ”Come brother, let’s go home.”

Shouting voices, men walking with a sense of purpose, your comrades living and dead. Blood, chaos and even paperwork. Cowardice and courage, mourning and camaraderie. Long marches on muddy roads. Yes, this is Home.

The Siege of Kresden, Midday Day Four, The North Wall Breach

The 7th Kreigstrom are tired, and they know that it’s going to be a long bloody day still to come.

Corporal ‘Jack’ Marcus’ drillmaster voice rings out clear and true getting the men into order as the rush of Neumunster soldiers clamber up the breach in the North Wall. It’s a steep, jagged slope but a damn sight better than a long ladder with a sharp welcome at the top. It’s the perfect opportunity for the Free Alliance to bring their numbers to bear.

A skeletal hand reaches up from the rubble, clutching at an unlucky Legionnaires ankle. He screams in panic, a crossbow bolt fills his open mouth with a lethal suddenness that silences him forever.

”Draw steel.” SGT Bad Hand snarls at the other NCOs, his massive two-hander blade already clenched tight in hand. He tries and fails to keep an insane grin off his face, today is working up to be a truly decent fekking fight. Maybe the best he’s had in years.

”COMPANY!” CPL ‘Jack’ Marcus booms in his thunderous drillmaster voice. ”DRAW STEEL!”

”Cold steel!” The warriors of the 7th Kreigstrom shout back, pushing to the forefront as Black Company Infantry, Rangers and even Supply bystanders follow their lead.

”This is it. Draw Steel!” CPL Saint barks at her squad, arm and hands burnt by holy fire still managing to clench tight around the hilt of her Nightblade.

”You heard the boss, fekkers, draw steel!” LCPL Murder Meriam hisses down the line,

Trooper Caroline ‘Joker’ Schuster sucks in a heaving breath, trying to stop herself from hyperventilating. She isn’t used to being this scared, Durvano had always had her back.

”Cold steel!” Schuster screams. Who am I kidding? I always just about shit myself at this part, Durvy or no. Oh please Gods don’t let me see Durvy out here as… as one of those things.

A ratty red gauntlet pats her on the shoulder and Trooper ‘Joker’s burnt half of her face twists in surprise until she realises the rotten hand belongs to her comrade Knight-of-the-Line ‘Mask’. She can’t make out the decomposed horror that lies behind his ancient faceplate, but she knows it is there. She gives the antique armoured figure a pathetically unconvincing smirk. ”What’s the matter, Red? Scared?”

Mask looks out at the onrushing Free Alliance formations, ordered lines morphing into a rush into the breach. ”…Hrrk.” The ancient undead warrior looks back at Trooper ‘Joker’ and slowly shakes his head.

”Yeah, well… that makes one of us.” Trooper ‘Joker’ mutters, hoping that whatever comes through the breach hits her unliving comrade harder than her.

Now lets see who dies today.

”Steeeeel!” Screams LCPL Lerrek Jurgensen, his messy tangled red hair flinging about wildly under his nasal helm as his spittle covers the shaft of his wicked longaxe. He knows very few words outside of his home Skald tongue by now, but at least he knows that one. Beside him Knight-of-the-Line Spitfire ‘Spicario’ nonchalantly takes off her flamboyant hat, inspecting that the feather is sitting right and adjusting how the headgear rests on her head just so.

”Cold steel!” She practically sings, flashing her teeth at a wide-eyed squad of young Tassenland conscripts behind her with a devil-may-care grin as she cocks one of her gunpowder pistols. ”If you’re going to die, youngsters, you might as well die well dressed!”

”Draw Steel!” The junior-NCOs repeat down the line, thumping their comrades on the shoulder as blades flick out at the ready, soon to be wetted by blood.

”Cold steel!” Comes the retort. It’s a good chant, better than the patriotic piss the Neumunster Legionnaires are shouting. Black Hearts, Dark Deeds, Cold Steel. It’s shouted as a fact, a truth and a promise. What sets the soldier apart from the civilian is the cold steel they bear and their willingness and skill to use it.

Troopers Nissar Belhamun and Smiles-at-Dice shake hands, the escaped slave magi-scribe’s hand looking comically tiny in the clawed grip of the hulking Wildborn. Nissar's friendship with the WIldborn abomination requires a particularly creative interpretation of the Prophet's lessons, but Nissar hasn't read any of his verses in years anyway. ”Smiles-Sadiqi, I know this is no the end. Many time now two of us must be of dying. Not dying here, not this this. Be no afraid my friend, we are two of soul.”

”It all comes down to the numbers, human. But…” Nissar looks up at the brawny creature with a quizzical expression. If Trooper Smiles warm grin is merely the result of his horrific scar it is impossible for Nissar to tell. ”…I hope they are not your numbers today.”

”COLD STEEL!” The men of the Company roar. More than a hundred pairs of eyes follow your clanking footsteps, stepping out from the ranks in the face of some thousand charging Legionaries.

”Is that…”

”Holy fekking…”

”Don’t just stand there gawking, you cocksleeves!” Good ol’ Bad Hand. ”Are you going to let the Lieutenant do all your fighting for you?!”

With an irrational roar your 7th Kriegstrom follows you into the breach.

They may fear you, some like the 4th Infantry may even hate you, but the Sheep can fear the Mutt and still be thankful that it keeps away the Lion. In times of darkness the blind man is King, so it follows that in a place of mass murder only the foulest death-dealer shall reign supreme. You will lead them down into this hell, and drag them out to the other side of it.

Cheers mate, this is exactly what I mean.

I also need to take into acount the DC bonus from taking casualties in the previous engagement. And the fatigue on your troopers. Prince doesn't tire as easily as his mortal subordinates.

In what way exactly?
+5 to fear or somesuch?

>>2224787
Instead of plus +5DC to Call of the Night every additional turn, when Saint's Dark Disciple is active it adds +10DC to the additional round.

>>2224804
Yes that's the boost call of the night part, but how does it boost black prince?

>>2224807
You would have had access to Call of the Night whether or not you chose the Black Prince Tier 4 option. Saint boosts both basic Call of the Night AND any bonuses to Call of the Night that come from Black Prince.

The Siege of Kresden, Day Four, The Battle of the Breach

You don’t so much as charge the Neumunster lines as you do stroll through them. The grizzled Legionnaires infront of you, veterans of a dozen campaigns, swerve as they climb or stop altogether. The wave of Neumunster swarms -around- you like a shoal of fish faced with a predator. No one wants to be the first to test their mettle against you. You are several ranks deep in the enemy formation before you stop, a dozen enemy soldier close enough to reach out and touch. Each of them stare at you with naked fear, they’ve all heard the stories.

”Where is your commander?”

Utter silence. Behind you the front ranks of Neumunster climbing up the breach is met by the Kreigstrom charging down. The Neumunster crumples hard, dozens of their number die in as many seconds.

One of the Neumunster in front of you, braver and stupider than the rest, gives a frail shout and charges forward with his halberd. You blade sweeps straight through the haft, your armoured forehead slams into the upstart mortal’s nose with a sickening crunch. You stare at the shocked circle of troops around you their comrades blood streaking across your helmet. The brave fool groans, slumped at your feet.

”I will continue to ask ‘Where is your commander?’ until I have an answer. Each time I have to ask, I will become less and less… polite.”

"Han spurte deg et sporsmål, morpike!” One of your men runs to your side, shoving aside any Neumunster that gets in his way contemptuously. Maybe this Skald has something to prove, running so far ahead of the rest of the Platoon even as they carve into the struggling Neumunster with avengeance. ”Hvem er din leder?!”


You waste a brief moment struggling to remember which Skald this was. Utred Horst? Hans Rusti? Blonde, chainmail with wicked two-handed longaxes. Neither of them speak a lick of common. You shrug. Looks like you’ll have to ask the hard way.

”Where is your commander?”

You slam your steel boot into the shoulder of the cowering Neumunster Private at your feet, he screams in pain as bones crack under your heel. None of his brothers-in-arms rush forward to help him. You can taste their feel as the whole assault wave collapses. They don’t stand a chance, black mists pouring up from the rubble beneath their legs, teeth gnashing at heels, legs and groins as they fight a literal uphill battle. The men of the Free Alliance are brave, not insane. They break.

”Where. Is your. Commander?” Your words are punctuated by the scream of the wounded man and the harsh laughter of Hans Rusti, who all but dares the Neumunster to try the two of you.

A piteous groan escapes the wounded soldier under your feet, a shaking hand pointing at an armoured figure with a plumed helm hanging in the back rank watching the display with unmitigated horror.

”Oh, fek.” He tries to run but the mist you command has him rooted to the spot, hungry eyes watch from the floor with glee as he kicks at the clawed hands reaching up at him. Finally he breaks free, scrambling to get away. As he turns to flee he finds himself staring down the barrel of a matchlock pistol.

”Ah, ah, ah, not so fast ventosa.” There is nothing friendly about ‘Spitfire’ Spicario’s smile as she flicks her hair, glamourous as ever. ”I think the Lieutenant would like a dance with you.”

”About time.” Your haunting voice is clear even above the clash of steel and screams of the dying. You heft your wicked zweihander off your shouldered defence stance. ”Now, let’s begin.”

I may have to tweak Call of the Night to only add 1 additional +5/10DC if it has been active for more than one turn.

Otherwise it gets a little bloody ridiculous. It's like the Hulk vs The Hulk's Bodyweight in Bees. Except with bats and other creatures of darkness.

You step forward and pounce towards the terrified enemy leader, your leap unintentionally (not that you care) crushing the skull of the unfortunate wounded Legionnaire underfoot. Finally, his screams are cut off.
To his credit the grizzled Neumunster Sergeant bravely steps in front you, blocking your way to their Lieutenant. It has much the same effect as stepping in front of a charging bull. You send him flying, your overhead swordstroke not even interrupted as you swing it in a deadly arc straight down the middle of the screaming Neumunster commander. It’s a hell of corpse that you make. You step back very quickly as the gory remains of the enemy LT explodes into blue flames. You glare at a very focused Trooper Nissar Belhamun pouring flame into the corpse.

”Oh. I am think this man was very dead before the burning, naam Emir-Lootenen?” Nissar puts out his blue-burning magik hands with an embarrassed expression.
Hans Rusti lets out another harsh laugh, his axe slamming into the back of the still-twitching Private’s skull. [red”Rask reise til Valhalla her!”[/red] Something black as pitch with too many eyes drags the Private’s corpse away.

‘Spitfire’ Spicario blows a tuft of hair out of her eyes, two pistols trained on two separate targets. ”I think my Skaldic friend here is encouraging you to beat a hasty retreat.”

There is a muffled groan as their Sergeant gets back up, doubled over in pain. Men, hard men that have fought and killed everything the Necromancer has had to offer before you, watch him and you cautiously. They are caught on that knife’s edge between duty and their basic desire to live. The SGT looks behind you, your cheering brothers in black holding aloft a golden eagle.

”… Fek this, boys. Emperor is dead, war is fekking lost anyway.” The Neumunster Sergeant clutches his side, sword lowered but still in his grip He spits. ”I’m heading to Sabari.”

He gives you and the corpse of his commander one last look, shivers, and then turns to leave muttering.

”Sabari ain’t far enough. Maybe the Raj, nice beaches I hear…”

Allow a path for the enemy to run. If such a path exists, more will follow, more will run. No path back means the opposing force will potentially fight to the death.

Two reasons
Logically, if they can run, they will and more will follow, weakening enemy forces over all

Character wise, prince is a literal monster, but he does it for the company, not sadism. Anymore than this is just wasted effort and not enjoyable for anyone involved.

"A wise decision. I advise you follow him.”

The remaining soldiers need no further encouragement, fleeing after their Sergeant in a single group even as the rest of the Legio dissolves in moments to every man for himself. Who knows, perhaps they'll start their own band of mercs for hire? They have the right attitude, brave but not to the point of stupidity.

For them the war might be over, or just about. But there are plenty of die-hard Free Alliance souls where they came from. Your job is far from finished.

It's a big deal to seize a Legio Eagle. I wonder if that will be something to win the Captain's affection?

Reminder, if more than one section reaches Untenable levels the battle is not instantly lost. You still have Asgorga (collateral damage ho!) and the Kreigstrom can redeploy if they win at their current post, but it will mean the battle is heavily skewed against them. Fighting spills into the streets as the Free Alliance presses its numbers advantage.

No, you siezed the Eagle.

To be honest I have no idea what to do with that, I never really expected the utter annihilation of a battle-force (as opposed to an individual opponent) to come up. In any case, as far as the Neumunster Legionnaires are concerned your Kreigstrom are king-shit of fek-hill. No one wants their proud Legio to end up like the III. They both fear, hate and respect you with a special degree beyond the average Free Alliance warrior.

You can already hear CPL 'Jack' Marcus shaking his head and muttering that in his day a Legion would have died to the last man before they gave up the eagle.

"The III were always soft bastards. Now my old Legion, the VI, THEY wouldn't have stood for any eagle-snatching."

Trooper 'Joker' is already teasing him about it.

The Free Alliance suffered a serious setback at your weakest point, the breach. But elsewhere the assault continues as planned, almost everywhere the enemy is on the verge of breaking through and carrying the walls. The cost in manpower is immense, but it’s working.
This is it. If you lose the walls it will be a matter of hours, not days, that you can hold them off from the backstreets and the Manor, now a makeshift Keep.

The enemy General is spending his men’s lives like a sailor in a Sabari whorehouse, but it’s working. To the North Tower you can see the press of green-robed Ajiyimad mercenaries being steadily pushed back. To the South you can see the Tassenland and Yellow Dog banners wavering, flashing steel spilling into the stairways leading to the streets. At least the 4th Infantry and other Black Company reserves hold the breached North Wall, but that is the only good news?

Your men are already committed to holding the Western Gate, the Neumunster soldiers overwhelming the rotten and skeletal dead in front of you faster than the cultists can ever summon them. Soon they’ll come to grips with your Kreigstrom. You don’t doubt that you can win here. But you can’t be everywhere at once.

”Liuetenant Prince, sir!” CPL ‘Jack’ Marcus snaps to attention in front of you, some of his old Legio career shining through.

”What is it Corporal?” You rasp, eyes one the impending melee.

”Sir! Our position is faltering to the North, request permission to take 2nd Squad there and retake the Tower, sir!” If he finds your new voice and appearance disturbing then he’s professional enough not to let it show.

”Just us? No fekking way. That’s fekking suicide!” Trooper Caroline ‘Joker’ Schuster gasps in disbelief, loud enough for you to hear. You and CPL ‘Jack’ glance at her. She flinches but holds her ground. ”Well, it is! …Sir.”

It wouldn’t be easy, that is for certain. There’s a decent chance of that being a one way trip. You could concentrate your faces, crush each assault one by one as you make your way to all the weak points. Your men would be exhausted, and the enemy perhaps already too far along in securing their position to make a difference. But at least you’d be together in one manageable force, a Kreigstrom hammer.

You also have Asgorga to consider. Should you unleash him against the Southern position and buy your forces some time? Collateral damage be damned, the Yellow Dogs and Tassenland greenfoots can burn if they aren’t smart enough to get out in time.

You look back at CPL ‘Jack’ Marcus standing at attention. He thinks he can do it, but certainly the rest of your old gang from 2nd Squad look less than enthused to be volunteered for such a dangerous mission.

While it appears that excess HBFM is wasted, it might be worth talking to the cultists about a means of storing that extra energy since you're not dedicating your kills to the Dark Father anymore.

If you were Captain, yes. But you have your orders "Hold the Wall, Don't Die" and, like a good little soldier, you intend to follow them.

Captain 'Cutthroat' Kiranova is probably correct here, the Manor is a good defensible position but it's not going to last long against the attentions of a literal army.

So I mean.

What's the option of attacking their command post in the wake of the route looking like? I mean. Yeah they could win the city but I doubt the nobles and shit would be willing to stand for that.

Even though the Legio III fled and dissipated the next assault wave was marching straight on through. Fighting continues at the breach even now.

You'd never make it to their command tent during the daytime as they launch their attacks, even with Asgorga spearheading the attack. But at night, with a Vampiric special ops force in support... And I really like the idea of using the Eagle standard to give you some legitimacy.

If you guys survive the day it will be something to discuss.
