![]() "I appreciate the thought, but you're a little late on the assist bud." Successfully stalled for time until Divisions 3 and 5 could join the fight and turn it into a rout. They've been doing this longer than I have." "I think the most important thing I've learned in this campaign is just to let the Legion do their thing. Don't stand up, I'll pick one out myself. In lieu of the money owed to my mercenary company for our service in your failed campaign, I am prepared to take any one of the kingdoms you currently possess. Just need to stick around for the mop up but we can do this. I think I'll sign up for one of those new settlements in Finland they're giving land away to anyone who puts his hand up for it. Ultimately the superior training and discipline of the Danish legions shined through." The battle went on for over a month, with Legion reinforcements pouring in from the highways constructed for this express purpose. In what couldn't be a greater contrast, the Mongols brought 20,000 cavalry and 20,000 auxiliary infantry. The Legion had around 30,000 heavy infantry, 7,000 archers and 5,000 cavalry. The Swedish army was predominately comprised of heavy infantry and fought in extremely immobile line and turtle tactics. "It was the clash of worlds and tactics, the ultimate meeting of East and West. In many ways, it marked the turning of the age. Timerevo was perhaps the defining moment for the Legion of the North and it was the largest single battle in medieval European history. "Good morning class, this week's lesson is on the Battle of Timerevo. The other strategies may win us the fight, even the war, but a single clear unambiguous victory over the Timurids will likely break them for ever. As much as I personally hate it, I'm going to recommend strategic response #2 to the commander. #3 Ocean Defence: Lure the Timurids to the ocean and then launch a total oceanic assault from a fortified position. #2 Frontal Assault: Use superior logistics to concentrate troops in one point, fight a pitched battle. #1 Distributed Retaliation: Split the army and occupy territory, taking advantage of the Khan's formation and sow chaos deep in his territory. Clever of him to adapt to Legion strategies without even seeing us in action this is indeed a dangerous foe. While the Ilkhanate tried to take as much territory as possible, they overextended and were picked off piecemeal. Unfortunately they have not adopted the tactic demonstrated by the Ilkhanate in the Second Invasion of distributing their forces to maximise foraging, instead remaining in a single concentrated army. Hey, we're cool though, right? You guys don't want to overthrow me any more?" "Hey guys, great talk, great feast, but the most terrifying man in history is here to quote fuck me unquote so I've kind of got to bail on this one. THAT'S NOT GOING TO STOP ME FUCKING YOU ALL!" I'M HERE TO KILL YOU AND TAKE ALL YOUR LANDS!ĪLLIANCE? JUST BECAUSE I'M FUCKING YOUR WHORE? "I AM TIMUR! KING OF KINGS! KHAN OF KHANS! History shows that changing things always ends in tearsĪnd if we have to make them that ain't no fault of mine." ![]() "The ties of blood have lead us for thousands of yearsĮver since man has crawled out of the slime. If we don't stop him he'll take everything! "We must stop him, this smiling thieving king They call it destiny - this bloated nightmare State!"
