Yao Long: The general who seeks revenge on the Mings

Attacking

Markus Thaowan: The Great Captain from Asaea

Prologue
Lloyd Kumar, Cadwalader Owain Jones, and Celina Lucyna are gathered in a room, trying to figure out the disappearance of the man known as Master.

"Okay, so our current theory - based off of the diary Celina found - is that something happened to his host that caused him to disappear," Lloyd says, looking over the notes they had gathered.

''Very good. That's part of it''

"Lloyd, you look like you've seen a ghost," Celina says.

"Well, Leo just confirmed that theory. So... how do we proceed?"

"I, for one, would like to know exactly who sponsored each of us. It may help in determining what happened," Cadwalader says, "And Yao and Ryan mentioned passing a couple rooms in The Arena that may help."

"So we check that out."

Tactics: In the event of an enemy attack severals tactics have been established. 3/4 of bowmen are too attend wall while the remaining fraction will work with infantry. On the wall, the bowmen will use wave fire and independant fire. Wave fire involves a unifyed bombardment of Arrows all fired at once, this can be done in rounds but should enemies return fire or come too close, independant fire can be used. On the ground, swordsmen, pikemen and a fraction of bowmen will attend the main gate and await potential entrance. The pikemen will await the forces first with pikes pointing and shields up followed by the swordsmen also with shields up and swords ready, the behind the infantry bowmen will prepare to use wave fire for awaiting enemy. In the event of overwhelment, men will retreat to the inner wall and repeat the same tactic.

This includes extensive running and training to build fighting mentality and moral and unite the men to work together. All are also briefed on fighting tactics and trained to ensure they are capable. After 4 weeks, men are able to choose what role they seek, in the case of a overwhelment of men for a specific role, people will be transfered alphabetically. Men will then recieve training on their chosen role and the weapons associated aswell as tactics involving this.

All 3 unit sections were led by a captain. These captain's were recognisable by their white cape and impressive helmet which has metal extensions featuring a feathers and a soft nilon covering up to their nose so only their eyes are visible.
