Re: Turn #70: Staging area Ilien

[X-Osoerde (Alan)]

FYI - Did we ever establish what Diemed forces/banner men and what Ilien forces were present?  I don't see them included anywhere in the troops lists.

[X-Avanil/Aubrae Avan (Thorsten)]

OOC: From the #71 SR I think it was pointed out, that Diemed went back on that:

Crusade: The Dieman willingness to contribute to the Crusade is very, very low. The nobles are war-weary (if such a thing is possible) and the OIT isn’t going to support IHH’s little pet war.

OOC: Indeed. Very very low though is definitely not none. Though that probably still leaves the Ilienese.  Probably largely flavor text.  There have been a some spontaneous musters that could in theory account for them as well.

AFAIK there are absolutely no Dieman units in the crusade. There are three Aerenwan units though, plus some Ilienese. There might even be a few men of Elinie scattered about. They would likely be camped around Nunkappel.

Gather them up. Lets go north!

[X-Osoerde (Alan)]

Could Osoer gather them and march them north on his swing back toward Rohrgaard?

OOC: Are there really units from Aerenwe? I know they were promised but AFAIK they never materialized. Did Milos really send them?

[DM B]

They are listed in his DO as crusading, but it's a bit unclear. I've asked for clarification.

[X-ETN/Maire Cwyllmie (Libor)]

OOC/Milos: I've still to get a definite answer; the 3 crusading units, did they or did they not leave for the crusade? I imagined they did last turn, but I'm not entirely sure?

OOC: Not last turn. Turn #69. Action: Create Field Army. Description: "1st Infantry, 1st Pikes and 1st Archers will join the crusading field army created by the Eastern Temple of Nesirie. Take 10". Result: Success.

That info didn't get to me. Then I was all wrong and ETN general Trelien is in Rohrmarch with those units and not in Calrie, as I assumed in my DO.

[X-Aerenwe/TS (Miloš)]

Maybe a Loaned Units section in the Assets part of the DO would make this easier to keep track of?
