Autumn 986 - WAR!

WAR!
The Border Kingdoms have declared war on the Goblins. With the agitation of the Brother Superior, Border Kingdoms Lords have been convinced to invade Zog-Rot in a bid to quash rumours of a Goblin khan. This pre-emptive strike to destroy the putative Goblin khan is a demonstration of the power of the Brethren and their allies in the Border Kingdoms. Can the Goblins hold off the Brethren army until winter or will the Brethren begin their new crusade with the conquest of part of Zog-Rot?



The battle for this turn will be fought once Steve has finished painting his Brethren.
