Salute!

As a leader of a mercenary group, it is my duty to introduce them, to the Relm. (TASK I. -Avalonia)

TASK III. -Avalonia

We take a lot of pleasure in the beauty of the landscape. Although the area's lords are not frowned upon if an army of mercenaries in their fields pass through , somewhere even had to settle down . Then we found Deep Gardens. Along the coast tiny fishing villages, farther inland forests, plenty of apple trees. The locals do not belong to any lord , freedom, but the cost, to no one defend them. They need our help , as we are to them . One village chief told us, about a ruined castle , it might be a good start.

That's a fearsome band of mercenaries! I am glad I did not see anybody who looked skilled with a ship, so I am unlikely to see them in the Enchanted Forest region any time soon...

This is a great introduction to your forces, and a good presentation of them. It was clearly well-thought out. I find your siege weapon and the wolf-head standard borne by that last group to be the most impressive elements of what you have just shown, but all of it looks good!

The siege weapon is also very Nice!

Its a relief, that my Weapons of Mass Distraction are still working! :wub:

They are a magic material, from a place, far from here... The people of that land calls it: Decal. (Done a little research, then sat down with a paint program, and printed out, on a huge sticker)

So, basically all of the torsos and shields are made by my self. Hade a little LARP team, with the same colors and wolf insignia.

Also, allow me, to show our new banner, and the story behind it:

29239078055_058f7037af_n.jpg

-Boss! A messenger came by with a letter!

-Alright Pell, read it out for me.

-The Lords of the Relm accept our request, to be part of Avalonia...

-Fascinating! I told you not to worry my dear friend. Go and give out the orders! At dawn we...

-...With one condition... -Continued Pell the reading.

Conrad let out a painful sigh...

-With what condition?

-"You must represent the colors of the relm..."

-What? Give me that! - snatched the letter form the boys hand, and starts muttering under his nose:- Bla..bla.. welcomes the... bla.. bla... if they represent... bla... bla... lush earthly feel? Hm....

28616329204_4093248f63_n.jpg

Conrad puts down the letter, and looked around. Then he tear off a handfull of grass, tied it together, then cuts down a vine from the nerby wall.

-If they want green, then they gets some green! Put it on the banner, This will represents the "Lushy earthly feel"... For now. Lok, give out the order to decamp! And send out some men, to aquire some banners...

Great army, the various sections are all well designed :thumbup: Wolf-pack is a favorite faction of mine, so I'm looking forward to seeing more builds from you :classic:

That's one tough looking group of Avalonians! No tight-wearing for these guys, eh! Honestly, this band of ruffians look like they'd be more at home in Nocturnus!

Welcome to GoH! Nice to see the use of some classic minifigs. Great variation among each of the troops. That siege engine looks pretty sweet, you got another photo of it we can see?

I do think the use of muskets may be pushing the technology limit too far. We have seen a crude bombard or two, but nothing in the way of small arms. Given that the time period is set in the classic medieval period, the techniques to miniaturize gunpowder weapons are not available in GoH. Just a small point, and I'd totally defer to others if I'm wrong.

Thank you, for every one!

As requested, more pictures of the Ballista:

Hope all of you likes it. After we could settle down, I think, i will open a siege workshop, so, more will come.

As the, we are more like from Nocturnus... We are from all part of Historica. Mercenaries from Midgardia and Avalonia, outlaws from Kaliphlin, and convicts from Nocturnus. They don't have homes. Conrad recruited them, while he traveled in historica. (actually I more like the classic medieval buildings)

And about the cannoneers: As knower of history well: The first encouter with gunpowder was in 1241 the battle of Mohi, in Hungary. Yes i know, i know those weren't muskets, more like, early hand-cannons. If there is a problem about my canoneers, i can make them hand-cannons, or simply forget them as gunners. I will use them only as sappers:

29248936635_55aa178e8b_n.jpg29170245811_69107362ae_n.jpg

They can undermine the walls of any castle or wall, exlopit the weak points.
