Campaign Log Campaign Intro The spring winds were still cold when Count Vlamir von Raukov put the call out mustering the remnants of the Ostland militia back to some semblence of a military fighting force. Ever since Archaon had brought his tidal wave of warriors in on the empire, Ostland's farms had burned, it's towns destroyed, and it's people plundered. Archaon was ultimately defeated at Middenheim in a collassal battle that had pitted the fell chaos lord against the heroes of the Empire, but his armies were still large, and many stayed in the Empire, amongst the burnt villages or in the trees of the dark forests. Ostland, of any province, had taken the worst amount of damage and much of it's territory now belonged to the enemy. From the border town of Emsk, the milita's gathered. Ostland could never really support any large armies, instead relying heavily on allies to come to their aid. The Emperor has promised help to Count Raukov, and batalions from the Reik, Middenheim, Ostermark, and other provinces march even now to the aid of Ostland. The Count plans on launching an assault on Lubrecht, a village occupied by the enemy. From there he plans on fanning out and reclaiming the forests and taking back Smallhof and Vandengart before reclaiming the citadel at Harnsadt. The forces of chaos are not without their own allies, as parties of dark elves, undead, and other foul things lurk in the forests and in the abandoned villages. Which side will you march with? Will you march alongside the black and white heraldry of Ostland and attempt to reclaim some of the land lost to the forces of chaos, or will you ally yourselves with the enemy and keep that which you have rightfully taken? |
