(I suppose if I set up a siege and quickly take Sungard it could probably eliminate that threat before Whiterun musters its forces, though. I have a cunning plan, however. More cunning than a fox who's been appointed professor of cunning at Oxford University.)

Upon hearing of the defensive pact between Whiterun and Sungard, Luciun ordered his army to halt. He set up an ambush here. On the left of the road, they'd have the eighty dismounted knights form a defensive line in front of five hundred archers. In front of the nobles they'd drive stakes into the ground. They had two hundred heavy infantry and two hundred archers on the right. The military thirty engineers would set up four ballistae behind the felled log, and have ditches and stakes in front of that. The fifty archers and two hundred heavy infantry not part of the ambush would go and beseige the city. They'd be commanded by ten knights and Sigmund who would function as scouts. If they saw Whiteruns armies advancing, they'd retreat to the ambush point. The archers on the left (right flank of enemy, so no shield) would fire, and when the enemy forces attacked them the other archers would fire and the infantry on the right would attack. It was a perfect plan. They just needed to get the enemy there.

After two months, the detachment of two hundred and sixty men under Sigmund marched to Fort Sungard.

"Surrender!" he shouted to the town. "Or else consign your people to misery and destruction!"
