[quote=@Not Fishing] Alright, questions: 1. Will Milos be expected to keep an Omadon or two back in town to act as a reserve unit? 2. Is Milos also expected to stay in town to do paperwork and such? 3. So I'm the one deciding the patrol/scouting routes? 4. Do we know if the enemy kingdoms have mobilized yet, and if they did mobilize what would be the estimated time required to reach us? 5. Those bridges seem like key strategic points. Have they already been fortified/put under watch, or will I have to assign men to do that? [/quote] 1. No. The Captain deals with that, and the militia. 2. Not necessarily, you CAN but it's not expected. Whatever you think accomplishes your goal is fine in Philolakes' eyes. 3. Yes, though it is a good idea to consult your junior officers. 4. Information is pretty unknown -- your unit is the ones gathering that information. You're expected to run into a vanguard/scouting force, which is why Philolakes has sent you and the other bandons out. 5. Anything outside of Tomis/Istrus can be considered, in a way, enemy territory. There are peasants/farmers/freeholders/etc along the land but military presence is confined to the towns besides your scouting patrols at this time. You can assign men to hold or watch them as you see fit.
