Army

[Maester Maurin]

Just sent PM to Smith:

I think we called 15 000, not 1000 and 500 men.... they defend all points near the coast, including Crakehall.

Actually, lets call 5000 more infantry to specifically defend Lannisport and the fleet there. It should raise our West forces to 20 000 plus these Knights at Wall.


Actually, I am not sure if we count Farman/Lydden men separately.

This sounds good.

What do you mean about Farman/Lydden?

Lydden has 2,000 men, but are under control of Mors Lydden, who is marching a majority of them around for some crazy purpose, no doubt. Lord Lydden and Ser Jon, the caution of the House, are beyond the wall but attempting to come back as soon as possible.

I've got two thousand men garrisoned at Faircastle under the command of Ser Addam Farman the Castellan, and also nine ships patrolling the island. I think my men and Lydden's are included inside the total numbers of Lannister soldiers.

[barker520]

Marten or anybody who knows,

are you still beyond the wall? If not, I can personally take the western men with me, as I am now leaving the wall with all speed to the south. If you are up there though, then I won't RP it that I'm taking them with me, besides a decent amout of them, because the command is yours.

May I suggest placing men along the Sea Road and to guard the passes from the reach, if you're fighting southrenrers and just call up the navy, we have ninety ships, if you are fighting via sea.

[barker520]

What's this? Southerners?

[swammeyjoe]

I don't know who you guys are fighting?

[barker520]

oh, haha. Well, the ironborn. Unless someone secretly jumps in against us. but the ironborn are pissed at us over an incident in the melee at King's Landing, and have their ships and 15,000 men ready and already are raiding our towns

[swammeyjoe]

90 ships under admiral marbrand, call them up. You guys have the rest under control, it looks like.

[barker520]

I was hoping Maurin or Marten called the ships up , I don't really have the authority to do so

[Sam]

I've got ten ships at Fair Isle, of our 90, they're already manned and patrolling around the island, but the rest of the ships are probably spread out between various seafaring Houses.

[Maester Maurin]

Marten is not at the wall, I am going to delete the posts...

[barker520]

Okay, just wanted to be clear. I just posted and I'm heading due south with the 5,000 western knights you were leading beyond the wall.

[Maester Maurin]

Okay, it seems we have better things to do that fight Wildlings at this point. You are free to lead them.

[barker520]

Thanks. Are there any notables among the 5,000? or are they just random knights?
