(I'll take the silence that as a yes on my suggestion.)

~6th of Sun's Dawn, 4E 269

The finishing touches on the 30 ladders were being made and the Hegathe army was getting ready to assault the town.

~7th of Sun's Dawn, 4E 269

The Infantry split up in groups of 40 for each ladder, so the 1200 soldier of the Light and Heavy Infantries were split among the units. The archers lined up out of reach from the walls, alongside the cavalry and Commander Sameq.

When everything in order, Sameq ordered the attack to begin.

The 40 soldiers of each unit picked up the 30 long ladders and charged ahead at the walls.

The archers moved in behind them to get into range to provice covering fire for the infantry as they rushed towards the old walls. When they were in range they got into loose formation and began to fire at the battlements to suppress as many of the defenders as possible to increase the chances of the infantry all making it.

The Light Infantry grabbed the ladder with one hand and used the other to hold up their shields to block arrows that might come down on them.
