Hope that's OK. Those locations are still pretty close to Cheydinhal, regardless of the 100 times bigger thing.) (Yeah, those are all minor locations anyway. So they don't really d much for you, except maybe the mine that helps your economy.

I should mention that Fort Farragut is independent and it has at least like 500 men, maybe more if you want it to have grown into a town or village since the 3rd Era.) (K. I took them more for the land than the locations themselves. Like boundary markers, in a sense.

Oh. I didn't know Farragut was seperate. Let's say it is now a village, so that equals 750 men, right?)

(Also by the way I'm using this to choose locations and stuff.)

There were many resources in Kemen, and many valuable riches. The treasury of Cheydinhal was quite full, and the economy was very successful. The mill was completed and a small wall had been built around Harlun's Watch. There were also two wheat silos. Cheydinhal had a very successful source of bread products now, due to the excess wheat.

Some more soldiers were recruited; about 30. The total was now 1201 soldiers.

(Time to blow some of that money on war preparations!)

Knowing that conquering Farragut would be useful to Cheydinhal, Alessandra had the construction of trebuchets begin. The trebuchets would be quite large and well armored, so it would take quite a while. The construction began immediately.

The construction of large ballistae also began. They were much less costly and time consuming than the trebuchets, so it was a good investment to make quite a few. Construction of them began immediately as well.

(About how long would it take to make this stuff?)

A group of adventuring warriors were based in Wind Range. It was no longer a camp like it was in the third era, but was now a small steading about half the size of Harlun's Stead. There were more soldiers than at Harlun, though. A scout reported that their numbers could not equal more than 40.

An appeal to the warriors to join the ranks of Cheydinhal was sent, saying whoever wished to join could join. 26 men left and joined Cheydinhal, because they were mainly looking for a military life anyway. The others denied. Since Cheydinhal also wanted the land, they asked to purchase the land from the warriors. They consented, and Wind Range was bought for a nice sum of 7000 gold pieces. There was no bloodshed, and Wind Range was now under the control of Cheydinhal. Amicus was very pleased with the smooth transaction.

Wind Range had a small mine founded in the hillside, which contained quality stone, but little ore. Miners started to work in the mine, collecting more stone for Cheydinhal.

Valdebellators: 33

Soldiers: 1227

Wind Range Stead added to Monarchy of Cheydinhal.
