Moss crept out through the gaps in the flagstone flooring, the moist plants were crushed under the awesome weight of Duke Kendwin as he looked up at the crudly drawn map of his lands, there, under the river Dweft was the lands of Falkonheimer.

"My Lord?" Krowadan the advisor had began to stare holes into his masters head, "If you are wishing we could crush the lands of Falkonheim, they are in the position to cripple us if we do not strike first!" Krowadan was now also looking at the lands of Falkonheimer, not only to the South but also to the North.

"Collect the Court of War, we will plan our attack, the coffers will not hold a long campaign so we must be swift!" Kendwin was running his hand over the mountains and flatlands, all of which may soon be his.

"My leige, a swift and decisive victory can be assured if we secure the Dneiper and the Prypyats to the North and use the gap through Nyomah and Prypyats to force the enemy into a bottleneck, I suggest we use 40% of the military force including the majority of the skirmishers." Kendwin nodded, General Keffle was very wise, "I volunteer to lead this task!" Kendwin again nodded and Keffle sat happy at the table, it took a short while before another General rose.

"I recomend that after we have a secured position in Belarus we send our forces over the Carpathian mountains and into South Falkonheimer, only a small alpine force in order to hold back the possible enemy incursions from the Eastern sector." Kendwin smiled and stood, the others around the table also rose to follow the kings lead.

"General Keffle, take the forces you need and go North, General Krowadan you will go South and I will oversee the defence of the lands, you have your tasks now go!" The generals milled out of the room and began to drag the forces into ready duty.

Falkonheimer, Falkonheim

The sounds of armour rang out aroung the Dneiper valley and into the ears of the waiting Falkonheim Soldiers who were split across the two sides of the river, the Kadunese warriors had taken only the one half and were now smashing their axes against the wooden bucklers upon their arms.

The Falkonheim army was poorly manned but ready to defeat any incursion, a small elite force with the Swordsmen, mainstay of the Falkonheim military, facing the main larger Kadunese force and the Longbowmen on the other side of the Dneiper waiting for the full conflict to start.

The common start for a Kadunese battle was the fearsome battlecry which was followed by the emmense charge over to the enemy lines, and sure enough a large bellow filled the valley and the battle had started.

Falkonheimer, Gorel

The administrative soldiers of Gorel, in their Black and Yellow dyes, stood waiting for the Carpathian force to pop into range and into the bloody battle they had staged, the Kadunese force was small but readily trained, the Swordsmen had themselves positioned at random intervals within the mountain where they could launch hit and run attacks, the Longbowmen were at the tactically advantagous position on the banks of one of the Danubes many lakes.
