Every battle will involve people wanting to shoot us, so we shall use our armor In every battle.

quote:Indeed. Although there will be situations where a flaming sword and bulletproof plate may prove useful, there are also ones where such assets become hindrances; a loud, obvious suit of armour would certainly not help if you needed to ambush the enemy or sneak about. quote:It is in the first month of 608 that a convoy of warships carrying the ensign of the Royal Tierran Navy sails into the ice-scudded waters of Noringia's harbour. Onboard are replacements for the line infantry, new guns for the artillery, and most preciously of all, a score of bright young officers in the grey-green tunic of the Royal Dragoons. quote:As the seasons turn once again and your officers settle into their duties, you find yourself facing another decision. When you were the only commissioned officer in the squadron, you led the entire unit as a unified command. Now, with each troop led by a commanding officer of its own, you must choose which troop to accompany into battle should you ever be deployed separately. quote:

If there's one thing that we've learned in our misadventures, it's that a clever commander who can keep his troops both loyal and disciplined is worth his weight in gold. So, 1st Troop, under Lieutenant Mc-least-likely-to-get-us-all-horribly-killed Sandoral

Findlay will need our help, and he's the son of a well-connected officer.

If there's one thing we know, sucking up to our boss will serve us well in the future. Findlay.

Findlay. Intelligence is his weak point, and we're pretty smart. If we attach to the bookish guy, we're gonna get steamrolled in every engagement because we can't fight.

Findlay. Maybe some of our brain will rub off on him, hopefully not literally.

Findlay let's see if we can't get Elson2.0 to turn out a little less dead than the original version.

We need a goon to crack heads, we can do the thinking. Blaylock!

If we don't keep an eye on Blaylock, we'll soon only have two lieutenants one way or another. If he wants to duel, he can duel a bane armoured veteran, and we can shoot him in the foot.

quote:Starting the next day, you begin attending drill exercises with Lieutenant Findlay's 4th Troop. quote:Noringia swells with fresh reinforcements as the seasons begin to turn once again. Regiments that had been devastated after Blogia are once again at near full strength. Indeed, even the losses you took in that first action as squadron commander a year ago have been entirely made good.

Swords don't need bullets! Unless they're gun-swords. Can we get some of those issued to us? Wait until we can train the men in their new gun-swords.

quote:Absolutely. There is certainly a difference between freshly raised units and well-drilled troops. It takes weeks, even months of such training to turn a mob of civilians with uniforms and muskets into a real fighting force. The extra time is a blessing, if you view it that way. +1% Cynicism quote:Soon, winter comes again, a particularly harsh one this time. For the first time since you arrived in Antar, you witness Noringia covered in thick blankets of snow.

Intellect is our highest stat for a reason. Find a way to speed up the reloading process through a very clever and possibly illegal exploit that will get banned in the next patch.
