Re: Eryndor fighting in chapter battles...
I hope my members are ready for some sever line fighting training. I accept this as my task and will have everyone ready to devastate.

Re: Eryndor fighting in chapter battles...
Athron, i couldnt have said the whole scenario thing better myself...we just have to make sure each group is 100% on board with fighting as Eryndor and not each unit...last year at rag ...we planned this style out ...but we still had people go off on their own causing us to fall....just a thought.

Re: Eryndor fighting in chapter battles...
Reading all of this got me excited.
Haldour is totally right when he says that Eryndor's downfall in the past was making things too rigid. Every unit should just do what it's good at. The only thing that really ever needs to be said to one another is, "Let's kill them."
Also, Haldour, I really dig the idea of you guys filling in everywhere. All of your core members are good at just about anything. I think this feature would perhaps make you guys the ultimate anti-flankers. Is that something that you were aiming for?

Anti-flanking. I think I like that.

Re: Eryndor fighting in chapter battles...
In all seriousness yes, one of my goals was to breed a group that can fill in anywhere, and can basically be the anti-flank anti-charge anti-shield wall unit.

That's exactly what Eryndor needs.

Re: Eryndor fighting in chapter battles...
Hal-pal, if you guys are on the "anti-flank" squad, which I think basically says NO FLANKING ERYNDOR, I'm aroused... and if we don't get flanked, you can just step up on the edge of the Imperial and help them mow down the line even faster.
I still have been chewing on the best way to use Legacy... we have a very, very wide skill level dispersion (some old vets, lots of brand news), and we're smaller in numbers (probably have 14 to 24 on the field on a given day) than the other crews.
My instincts tell me we might be best suited as a reserve unit chilling just behind Imperial and Warband so that we can 'see' the field (Mith and I will have eyes) and we can be the 'first responders' based on the needs of:
(1) helping the Imperial with a particularly tough line fight
(2) backing up warband if we're getting pounded on the flank
(3) flanking to the right of the Warband if they picked up an opponent's counter-flanks... Legacy now essentially playing a 'pirate role' against our opposing flankers and giving them a taste of their own medicine.
(3) soft flank the same way the Senegal first went if they wheeled completely around our opponent so now that soft flank should actually be our opponent's backs
Other ideas come to mind?
Also, don't forget we have crews like the Fallen Leaves, Thieves Guild, Western Eryndor as well. I know how the Fallen Leaves fight, they're basically going to wind up being a "Wind"... I'm not so sure what the Thieves Guild likes to do, but I do know that Jarred (Jarrod?) is a a bad man with a bow.

Exactly. I read one piece of military strategy that made me realize how appropriate it is for a game like Dagorhir -- never buidl strategies based on "ifs" and "buts" depending on your opponents, have a fricking strategy and execute it every time and impose your will onto your opponents. As long as we know what each group plans to do each battle, we can *hopefully* give other chapters the rough, prison-style lovin' I know they are waiting for :-) ... or is that just better know as Viking love, Haldour?
