Make a elite cataphract force of 50 than charge them to their horse division. Elite cataphracts are superior in all ways. Then, charge the horses on to the pikeman and archers then charge the soldiers and arrows. Dont forget that these has to be mostly legionaries. I hope my tips help. submitted by /u/Visible_Tax7920 [link] [comments]
Our story starts 20 years before Lyonel is born, Robert Harlaus and his brother Geggor Harlaus. Sons of the King of Swadia. In the climax of a Civil War between the Rhodok Republic and the the Kingdom of Swadia for Praven, the Capitol of Calradia and the Crown to rule Calradia. Greggor and Robert lead the rebellion and overthrow the King Of Calradia and have him executed. Robert being the eldest takes the crown and becomes known as King Harlaus. Greggor leaves Calradia for 2 years, in those two years he learns a whore gave birth to his son in Praven, Calradia. Fearing what his brother Robert would do to a disgrace in the family name Greggor sends Lyonel and his mother far away.
22 years later after a long strong rule over Calradia The Rhodok Republic captures Greggor in battle and has him executed in hopes to start a war. Miles away hearing of his father's execution Lyonel decides to travel to Calradia to join his uncle's army and get revenge for the death of his father.
Lyonel Praven arrives in Calradia in March 1257. He goes to his Uncle and asks to join his army, but is declined. King Harlaus tells him he can get together a band of mercenaries and keep the villages safe from bandits, so he does. Lyonel grew more and more angry with his uncle for not declaring war on the Rhodok Republic. Until the beginning of the Rhodkian Revolution begins. It starts with the death of a Sworn Vassal to Swadia. King Harlaus is angered and in revenge murders a vassal of Rhodok. A war begins, raging for years the bloodiest war the High Borns of Calradia have ever seen. At least once a week another Faction would execute a Vassal of their enemy, as if it were a game.
Lyonel once again goes to his uncle and begs for him to let him join his army. Harlaus denies again, and again, and again. Lyonel does all he can to gain the trust of the Vassals and Lords of Swadia but fails, until it's too late. Lyonel asks Doge Graveth how he thinks the war is going and Doge replies by saying King Harlaus is at war on too many fronts. It's nearly over for the reign of the Swadian Empire. The Rhodokian Revolution has torn the Land Of Calradia apart, and it all ends with King Harlaus. Knowing this Lyonel goes one last time to see his uncle. But it's too late. The Rhodok Republic has seized Praven and captured King Harlaus and are awaiting his execution. Lyonel knows he has one more chance to prove to his uncle he is worthy of avenging his father. He knows he must gain the trust of the King and the Lord's.
He goes to Maras Castle and frees King Harlaus from captivity. When he gets his uncle to Suno safely he asks for his help in avenging his father. But the Kings pride again rejects Lyonel. Angered by this he asks to leave his Uncles contract and heads North, to The Kingdom of the Nords to build his army. Quickly finding himself in a similar situation, no one trusts him or knows him, all they know is that he is a bastard. After nearly a year of building an Army, Lyonel decides he no longer only wants to avenge his father, but take Praven and be the longest reigning King. Not because he wants power, but because he wants his bastard name to mean more than what it does.
First he has to get the Nords to declare war the Rhodok Republic. He asks Ragnar but is denied. Over and over again. Lyonel is growing more and more angry that no one shares his hate for them like he does. He takes matters into his own hands. He tries to spark a war. By killing farmers plundering villages, hiring deserters. He becomes the most dishonored man in Calradia. He again goes the Ragnar whom strips him of his fief and threatens to have hike executed for treason. Lyonel once again has to gain their trust.
Growing more and more power hungry each day he attacks more and more villages. This time owned by the Nords enemy, the Khergit Khanate. On April 23 1258 early in the morning Lyonel and his army of deserters arrive in Tash Kulun to destroy the village, Darga Faveo Tulug is not far behind.
"Finally a battle that will earn me my title." Says Lyonel. He meets Tulug on the field, it's time to battle. Lyonels men, more ready than ever prepare for battle. They enter formation and see the enemy do the same. Time stands still till Tulugs Calvary charge. Lyonels army is wiped out in a matter of minutes, and he is captured. Tulug hands Lyonel over to the Rhodok Republic. As he sits in Prison for a month, the discover he is the bastard son of Greggor Harlaus. They hold a trail for him, for Conspiring against the Crown and for the Murder of hundreds of farmers. He is found guilty and executed early morning June 2nd.
P.S. Now obviously this had a lot of role play, and some parts were made up, such as the Prologue about the Swadians taking the crown and King Harlaus having a brother. And Lyonel getting handed over. That didn't actually happen he was just killed by Tulug. I hope you enjoyed my story.
