Name: Sir Shayua Haise Looks/Personality/History: Your typical peasent, he grew up on his parents farm, until the village he lived near was pillaged and burned down, along with his families crops. After the very cliche event of his parents dieing, he grew up as a begger, traveling from village to village until the age of 16, when he finally got a job as a carpenter. After raising enough money, and taking a very generous donation from his friends and family, he followed his dream of becoming a knight. The only problem is, he failed at it, and the resulting trauma caused him to enroll in his small countries militia, where he rose through to ranks slowly, and now commands a small force. He is fairly tall, with long red hair, and a clean-shaven face. He is very pale, and is somewhat of a jokester, always making sarcastic comments and jests at his troops to raise moral, though it doesn't always work.

-------------------------------------------------------------- Name: Gen. Jonathan Smith II Looks/Personality/History: Background: Spoiled son of a noble family, he became arrogant, aggressive, and, well, a total jerk. When his country(whatever it is) went to war against _(insert opposing country), the majority of his family was killed and he was sent to live with his uncle. He retained his old ways until finally his uncle tired of him and sent him off to a military school, where he learned the art of war quite well and actually showed a flair for it, especially tactics. He had his arrogance beaten out of him and finally became more diligent, solemn, and down to earth. When he was sent off to war, he immediately became successful, and skyrocketed through the ranks to become General of _(insert country). Look: Medium-height, muscular. Tan skin. Bright blue eyes, short dark brown hair, so he's almost bald. Handsome face, although it is slightly marred by a thin scar from his right temple to his jaw. Personality: Although he's retained his dignified manner and has acquired a workaholic-like industriousness, he, however, is very easy to anger, often proud, and very ambitious. He is brave, but not foolish. Sometimes he has a slight disregard for lives as long is victory is achieved, and while he is known to be honorable, disliking ambushes, torture, and the like, he shows no mercy and most often doesn't take prisoners. He holds other people up to the same high standards he expects of himself, and has the deepest disgust for those who fail(which is most people).

You approach the harbor. It appears to be lightly defended, with footsoldiers constantly patrolling the dockside, and checking anyone who wants in. There are also a few lookout towers.
How many soldiers will you bring? (look to my to Alpha's post for more info)

You approach the merchant town with your troops. People everywhere are trading stuff. There appears to be no danger to you, except for a man trying to sell weaponry from East Asia. He was demonstrating a few tricks he knew, and they looked like they could be used in combat as well. What is your action?

My troops will stand in a formation of something like this. Key: @ = me o = footsoldiers ^ = archers 0 = Knights
@ o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o
My troops will be ordered to attack only those who are armed, and for those who DO defend the town, no prisoners will be taken.

No knights? How many of each troop will you take? Kill/No prisoners?

Your neighboring empire, Windwalk (Yeah, I'm still awful at names) is your first target, and most likely your easiest one.
Windwalk Landscape: Full of mountains. As the name says, wind always blows. Size: 1.5x California
Choose your target of attack:
-The Capital (Strongest) -Mountain Villages (Will not pose much of a challenge, but trekking there will be hard, and the loot isn't much)
Do you want to tackle right away or go for some treasures and experience?
