Well, the idea - at least on paper - is to get the captain to follow us, and then use him to police his own men. He has a great degree of influence on them, to the point where they are said to take after him. If he goes with us earnestly, that would do a lot to mitigate the displeasure.Regarding A1, it's one thing to ask these men to join us, and it is quite another for these men to be fine with us murdering their brothers-in-arms and committing treason for the honor of serving under some random fucking guy who lives in the woods. And A2 is possibly even worse - so many headaches. First, there's the problem of knowing that they're sincere in defecting to us, and not doing it because they're terrified. Then, there's making sure that they are watched and accounted for at all times - these men are skilled, professional fighting men who will probably be a lot tougher than the goblins that comprise most of our forces. Given the conditions, it's remarkably easy for these guys to escape if either Erdrick or Rin are away.
Are you sure about that?And if she didn't give a damn about him when he was a dashing officer bro, she is not going to like him more when he is a deranged obsessive psycho either.
I see no reason to believe she cares about anything but science.Are you sure about that?
We might want to take a lesson from the king here. Not with our twins, though, but I hope there would be more.King Fowyl Yuiry (59), the monarch of the kingdom, who has successfully reigned over periods of both turmoil and peace, and brought his country through intact. Currently preparing the way for his successor, and plans to retire when the time is right.

Curious. Byarlant Empire is said to have been at odds with Dijeh about 50 years ago when Zayan (the Twelfth?) sunk their whole fleet. And the governor said there were rumors about them making a move soon. I have also speculated that the black figure Rin fought is one of them. Are they secret allies with Barzam?the King’s wives are Byarlantian nobility.
Already hate him with a passion. Tried to antagonize the monster-bros, to take Zayan all to himself (a rival!), and is a filthy Barzamite whore at heart. I wonder what was the deal with Duke Hargreave Brescia and the title of a Crown Prince. I suspect that something fishy is going on with him. Wouldn't be surprized if he fell under someone's influence - a proper heir to the Kingdom wouldn't have been eager to piss off the only allies it has for a superficial gain.Crown Prince Feist Yuiry (34), the ambitious first prince. Has been designated as the successor to the throne, and is keen to drag the kingdom into a brighter future. Child of Fowyl & Natasha.

Holy Barzam Ecclesiocracy – Bad relations ever since the Barzamite invasion a decade ago, but it is improving thanks to Prince Feist’s efforts.
Interesting. I wonder what the cause of death was and when it happened. Is it a coincidence he was the next in line for the throne after Feist, whom we know to be ruthless and somewhat short-sighted?Second Prince Feyl Yuiry (32), the second born son. Deceased. Child of Fowyl & Natasha.
Whatever happened to the Mercenary-King? Sounds like your typical barbarian kingdom with all the finesse of a hammer. Might be an interesting place to relocate to.Kingdom of Galbaldy – Frequent border skirmishes occurred up until five years ago, when Belbro Wickman defeated the Mercenary-King of Galbaldy in a famous duel. There has been peace since.
Possibly, though I think we might have landed in one of the stronger ones. Takes some serious stability to have the royal line unbroken for generations, and such stability does not happen without power.Same for the other regions as well.
Not an update, just random goblin lore:By the way, in which update was it mentioned that all monsters fled to the East? And was the reason ever explained? I forgot the specifics.
Re: goblin knowledge of non-human territory
The non-humans were gradually pushed further east after the Demon God’s defeat. For some time the humans ruled this area, but barely a hundred years after their victory they left for some reason that the goblins are not aware of. The goblins of Grahferde are currently not in contact with any of the other non-human races, they see them as quitters and losers.
All the surviving non-human races fled east thousands of years ago. You don't know if there has been any regular contact between humans and demons since then, and whether that contact is friendly. The goblins are a little too isolated to know that.
Then, three of the seven weapons betrayed the Demon God. Barbatos does not know why: all he knows is that Neros, Reminos and Athos vanished from the Demon God’s side, and were next seen in the hands of the five heroes that the gods had chosen.
So, the Sword, the Bow and the Staff.Neros of the Sword.
Curainnos of the Spear.
Reminos of the Bow.
Merdeos of the Dagger.
Athos of the Staff.
Barbatos of the Fist.
And finally, Equinos of the Golem.
treave, does the C option allow us to take a few survivors so that Rin and Zayan can use them for "practice"? Just to know.
The Royal Army
A standing army of 25,000 men commanded by the royal family and generals loyal to them.
The Noble Army
A force levied from the nobles of the kingdom. Numbers vary, but are estimated to be at about 100,000 men in total when at full strength.
A note on the numbers above:
The absolutist Louis XIV of France commanded up to 30,000 men, with no nobles being allowed to raise armies of their own in France in the 17th century, meaning that vast majority of availible soldiers were in the King's service. Methuss seems to have four times as many availible soldiers. Should we understand that it is a sprawling empire, four times the size of France?
The French army at the end of the 17th century boasted, at least according to their records, 400,000 men if I'm not mistaken. Which source are you citing?
You're mistaking me for some other more hardworking and diligent LP writer, I'm afraid. No maps.
