(@Pacman: They brought large wooden barriers with them on the boats. With two bandits grabbing a hold of each barrier they carried it and created a sort of wooden fence to protect themselves.

@Maxicut: No, the original total strength was 1000. 250 of the Ra Gada invaders and 750 regular soldiers: archers, infantry, cavalry, etc. With your losses at Fort Bayside, your total army was reduced to 856. Riverview joining gave you 210 more soldiers, the village's other 90 soldiers remain there as guards. The Lord doesn't lend you those.

Currently, as of 30th of Second Seed: 250 men are heading to Riverview from Fort Bayside. 50 are heading to Fort Bayside still from Sentinel, they haven't yet arrived and were never given another order. 280 are at Fort Ennah. 160 are currently in Riverview. And 206 are in Sentinel. Your total forces as of the 30th are 946 soldiers, of those, 215 are Ra Gada sailors. It is not 946 regular soldiers + 215 sailors. It is 731 regular soldiers + 215 sailors.

As I mentioned last time, there was no time to strip the fort during their escape, not if they wanted to get away fast enough not to get killed by the invading army. So I am going to disregard that part of your post.

@Pelagius: That is a little fast xD. We should RP the battle instead of ending it in one post.

And no, forts don't give you free soldiers. They just let you maintain a larger army, as they house some of your soldiers. Each fort means an additional cap of 100 soldiers.)

~25th of Second Seed

With Gorlak issuing a formal challenge, the battle died down. By then, only 350 of the defenders remained.

The Chief of Dushgur accepted. "I will make you pay for the death of my two sons." He said, approaching Chief Gorlak. "And when I kill you I will make your wives mine and leave your children out for the mountain wolves."

The raid didn't last long after that, with few bandits making it out alive with loot. Only 2k in gold this time, and less than 20 survived.

Though the stolen fishing ships that managed to get away would make the fishing for the next month suffer a bit.

Hegathe's army captured the abandoned Fort Bayside. The general of the army ordered his troops to let the Ra Gada army escape without pursuit, their mission was to take control of Fort Bayside not to fight with the Ra Gada.

The general sent a raven with a message to their king about their success.

Dathman and his men took casualties from spells by the cultists on the wall, but they managed to finally breach the battlements. The maimed lord raised his sword and pointed at the wall, then yelled. His men took that as an order and rushed up to deal with the cultists above.

The mages were terrible against the warriors in close quarters and within a few minutes, the battlements were theirs.

By the time Haki and the archers reached the fort, the last few cultists were being put to the sword.

The initial army of 400 was now reduced to 284. All 100 of the Bear Berserkers had been wiped out. For now the army stayed there and began cleaning the bodies out of the fort. The dead Old Holds soldiers were gathered to be sent back to their homes to be buried in their respective Hall of the Dead.

The only response by the Golden Company was sending a ballista bolt near the Anvil camp, with the head of the man the general had sent to talk two days ago attached to it.
