'The Battering Ram serves one purpose: Break down walls. Press a few of the local farmers to carry the thing. They don't need training. It's just a big log. You bash it. If the guys on the wall kill the guys with the ram, there are plenty of farmers ready to take their place.'

'We tried first to sneak past them, but the pirates had quick frigate warships and sharp eyes. A volley of great arrows streaked through the sky, launched from on-deck ballistae. We'd never make it safely to port. Our transport vessel had no chance against that fleet, so the captain turned to open seas. As suspected, once we got into rough weather, we became more trouble than we were worth. We lost the brigands in the high rolling seas, and I lost the contents of my stomach.'

'The trade routes are safe. I verified it myself. We ran continuous patrols to protect all our trade ships. Our galleons are amply present, well-armed, and capable of ramming any of the smaller vessels into splinters. They are sufficient to protect our non-military vessels. We were never challenged. My only conclusion is that reports that the colonies cannot repel pirates and therefore they cannot pay the required tribute are not credible.'

'Our armies camped around the city of Orkastrol. Orc razorbows stood ready behind high stone walls. Arrows slew anything close to the city gates, but I came prepared. We rolled the trebuchets into position and gathered a supply of boulders from the surrounding countryside. After the first volley, though their walls still stood, the enemy's cavalry desperately charged our war machines. Trebuchets are weak in melee, but my pikeman formed a wall to protect them as they launched volley after volley. When the walls were down, the trebuchets launched boulders into the the enemy troops.'

'Surrounded by the troops I managed to regroup, I directed the builder foreman and his slaves to build fortifications for the remainder of my forces. Builders are not fighters. He directed a massive crane on a wheeled platform, outfitted with gears, pulleys and winches. In a matter of days, with the correct balance of bribes and death threats, they constructed a watch tower and beside it a fortress at the mouth of a steep ravine. As the enemy furrowed into the narrow channel we spied them coming. From our walls, we rained arrows on the attackers. Most commanders despise the slow pace of a builder, but my army was fortunate to have them. And unlike those other warlords, I lived to tell the tale.'

'Sellodunk City was overcrowded and my wife nagged me about getting a nicer place, but life in the city was all I knew. Then one day, Lord Vellaxis sent out a call for volunteers to join a settler caravan, and with the wife's nagging, I was eager to try something new. On our way, we formed a trail that would form a trade route to Sellodunk. We had to move quickly, because none of us settlers knew how to defend ourselves from anything more than a lone wolf. When we found a clear plateau we founded Vellaxis Town, and that's how we settled here.'
