Meanwhile, all 3,000 Rangers have been gathered with the full might of the Orsinian Empire, a grand total of 60,000 men and women, all of whom have been upgraded from chainmail to the lamellar previously worn only by the Rangers. They will drive out the invaders, and continue on to destroy them, down to the last man. The women and children they will spare however. They are not like the conquerors. They have a sense of right and wrong. For the first time since this war began, they are going on the offensive. And they will not rest until the enemy has repayed the lives of every man, woman, and child they have slaughtered like animals threefold. About that...

The army needs a long, and cumbersome supply line, for all the settlements are torched, the fields lie trampled, livestock slaughtered, and left to rot. Alongside the corpses of countless imperial citizens that will never be identified. For they had been mutilated, burnt, or left to rot. Many men from the provinces that have been taken start complaining about how they have nothing left to fight for, refusing to go on, or killing themselves. A hardy few become even more grim, and filled with bloodlust. The royal road is lined with the impaled bodies of what was once a sizeable resistance movement. While the emperor of the High Men sits upon his throne, and his legions, augmented with fresh forces from across the sea, sit, and wait for their foe to come to them.
