The Third Hymerian War
IC (Will be up soon) | OOC (You are here)
First Hymerian War - In 790 B.C, King Gerold I went to war with clans in the north. He had been trying for years to convince the northern clans to merge. They however, denied and Gerold went to war. He gained support from lords all over, 97,500 levies, pikeman, archers, knights, etc marched towards the north. Due to no official leader in the north, but false kings and petty lords, it would take a while for them to rally. Soon, when the Hymerian army was close they elected their first northern ruler, Alexander Rambart, he took what was mustered up (15,000-25,000) and met King Gerold at Atantra. The battle lasted 5 hours, the northern army lost 12,000 due to their bad positioning, insufficient ration amount, primitive weaponry, and primitive clothing. Hymeria lost 18,000 but only due to the harsh cold that they were not used to. Alexander was removed and John Roswin was elected, he planned a "grand" offensive and prepared to attack.
Second Hymerian War -
John had his domains split into militaristic clans (2,000-5,000 in each). He believed this multi-way attack would confuse Hymeria's army and then encircle them for the final blow.
His clans marched attacking from different directions, Gerold, now 54, was determined to lead Hymeria into another victory. He figured out John's plan and had ambush positions all throughout the land that was being invaded. This way, since they are broken up into small clans they can easily be attacked (ambushed) decisively killing the majority before having to lock in combat. Gerold's plan worked a bit, the clans expected something like that since they did it back in the north on small groups such as raiders/outlaws/etc. 22,000 northern soldiers made it to Ravenstern before being halted by loyalist and armed resistance. They were held long enough that soon the royal army arrived and pushed them back across the bridge, onto the paths, into the woods, through towns, and finally finished off at Redstone River. John was killed in battle, so was the emergency northern leader, and the majority of commanders who decided to fight until death, encouraging some soldiers with them. The North decided it was idiotic to be ruled under one person and declared themselves Kings or High Lords.
Brumlen Rebellion- In 845, (Have to keep this short due to post limit) A man named Hendrick Ransen led a 30,000 army host on Brumlen, the imperial guard was deployed and held him off, the battle lasted 4 days, but Hendrick lost due to bad positioning, and lack of rations. His family was gathered up and executed. He and his house were extinguished into history.
The Third Hymerian War- The Kingdom of Swadia in the North decided to start another war against Hymeria, at this point, Gerold was dead and his adopted son, Haeron Hymar was heir but a corrupt regency ruled over, treating Haeron like a peasant. When Haeron finally did take power the economy and military was heavily influenced in corruptness. Swadia took this to their advantage and invaded, they got about as far as Brumlen before loyalist military personnel defended and halted the northern army. Haeron sent messages all over the world pleading for help, Swadia did the same, determined they would get more supporters due to their numbers and possible victory. Now its up to you and your nation to decide what to do.
