@ArenaSnow You'll get plenty once me and our fearless GM are done with the joint post.

As for my inspiration I think it's a mix of the American Revolutionaries, modern Terrorist organizations and the Star Wars Rebels.
Interested.
@Thrashy Exactly why I didn't pick it.
@The Omnipotent Sphere
True. But the Phantoms are supposed to be the main unit in the military with troops just defending cities. Maybe I'll add in mercs but the backbone wouldn't be mercs.
@The Omnipotent Sphere
I was thinking of that, but I didn't want the impression that the Phantoms had any thing to do with mercenaries.
@babbysama@The Omnipotent Sphere
Another defense is actually starting a war between another nation and the attacker. Use spies to plant (true or not so true) information about the attacker in courts of another nation. Offer to fund an attack. Then the attackers have to pull back to defend their own lands.
@Rae Zer Same with Lucrum. The only way they are getting involved in an actual attack is if they are funding a war against their enemies. Lucrum's strongest weapon will probably be their wealth.
@Rae Zer I can just imagine our two armies setting ambushes for each other and just waiting for the other to show up haha.
But, invading with an ambush is quite difficult, if not impossible. So how exactly would you attack?
