The battle for Attaleia
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Storyteller: The Turks, again didn't expect there castle to be besieged. But now battle is about to begin, the Byzantine people are binning to be stronger then the Turks, could this be ? Maybe, but the Turks have also mighty armies to the far south east. So its to say if a Jihad was called against Constantinople, the Byzantine people would lose fast.
Theodoros Comnenus: This will not be so easy, a castle has strong walls, many towers near the gate. Also burning oil. I hate that, but if we can mange to control the walls before moving in to kill we could have minimum casualties.
Captain: I think as soon as our ram has breached the gate we must run in not slowly of course or many will die of the shooting towers and the oil.
Theodoros Comnenus: I want this battle over just like you do, but with enough men to defend this castle if the Turks come back.
Theodoros Comnenus: Move the siege towers and the ladders to the walls. Expect resistence on the walls. Trebizond archers fire at there archers on the walls!
Captain: The gates are down, we can move in now.
Theodoros Comnenus: Wait. Let 4 units of spear men in first to clear out the way. Then we move in.
Storyteller: And so the walls where taken, the Turk forces root back to there plaza, to make one final stand. The Byzantine people might have won, but have lost more men then the Turks. The Turks general is very brave, he stands up to hold the Byzantine army from taking the plaza. Such a brave and loyal general must have been a man with a live story.
Theodoros Comnenus: Spear men go closer and don't stand so far away, kill him don't be afraid.
Captain: Well general, you are not fighting with your men, you are standing away in a distance.
Theodoros Comnenus: I am more important then my men and you know it.
Captain: I am just saying we can win this very soon if you charge there dying general.
Theodoros Comnenus: There general will die because of our experience men.
Soldiers:
Theodoros Comnenus: There general is slain, he was the last of his bodyguards to have survived such a strong mind to have fight on.
Captain: All units charge to the plaza kill any resistance!
Soldiers: For the glory of the Byzantine empire!
Theodoros Comnenus: This castle is ours. Well done men this was a hard fight we lost many good soldiers this day. But they will be remembered for there contribution to this victory. There families will get food and florins.
Captain: It won't fill up the empty hole inside of them.
Theodoros Comnenus: That is war captain, we die for the mother land. Because I will die defending this place if the Turks come and pass here.
Bishop Xenos Bryennius: I have manged to find evidence to prove this man is a heretic, enemy of the church. I have personally executed the man, such blasphemy!
Emperor Manuel: Well done, no heretics in our kingdom.
Lufus Sefti: Alexios Metochites wants to become part of the royal family.
Florus Delve: This man posses some good traits and has the beginning skills of a good general. I think Theodoros you should accept him.
Theodoros Comnenus: Indeed, he can be useful to lead our armies to victory!
The battle for Ankara
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Vlasios Calaphates: Men let me tell you something. I was first a captain, then I was seen to be more then that. Now I lead an army at the far frontier of our borders. Now I am at the point of attacking the Turks there city Ankara. Now I have the responsibility to make sure you all return save home, and that we win!
Captain: One day I want to be like you general, rise trough the ranks!
Vlasios Calaphates: Well captain I was one to a captain, you must win a battle that is almost impossible to win.
Captain: Indeed, but now we shall fight!
Vlasios Calaphates: Move our siege equipment to the walls, smash the gate!
Captain: We are having some resistance or spear men are killed that where moving to the gate with the ram.
Lieutenant: Indeed. The Turks seem to use a strange but effective tactic against us. The attack our men that hold the ram to make sure we can't destroy there gate.
Vlasios Calaphates: A little problem, that I can solve. Trebizond archers aim at those Turks that attack our men, and fire.
Captain: But our own men are still out there. We would be killing them to.
Vlasios Calaphates: That is war, its just one unit and we may have saved many hundreds of soldiers.
Storyteller: The general indeed saved many. The Turks where killed from behind and from in front. While the Turks where fighting of that one unit the Byzantine manged to get on the walls trough the towers in the city and then marched to attack the Turkish spear men.
Captain: There leading captain is slain by the rain of flying arrows piercing trough his body. This battle is won.
Vlasios Calaphates: Good, now he is out of the way we can go in the city.
Storyteller: The Byzantine army moved to the plaza with a large force of eager and brave men ready to die for there emperor.
Vlasios Calaphates: Attack there catapults, they kill many of us. charge!
Vlasios Calaphates: It seems favor goes our way and again we are victorious. We are winning land from the Turks. We are finally making progress, of ages of war and falling back. And losing lands to the Muslims we are finally fighting back!
Storyteller: The 4th crusade actually was the 4th crusade. Is now a force out of control seeking only wealth. And will sack every city they find interesting with much wealth. Venice has disembarked on the coast to the west of Constantinople. With a powerfull force, with only one intention. Destroying and sacking everthing on the way, causing much fear and terror to the local Byzantine people. Constantinople has never been in a situation like this. If emperor Manuel his leadership is so great. He maybe can mange to defeat this invasion force. Or at least die trying.
High Chancellor Nepos Julius: The Council has decided after a long debate which city you have to take next. We feel it would be best to take Alanya a rebel city close to the just conquered Turkish castle. One of our members will explain to you in detail.
Germakus Tervun: You will have 7 and a half years to complete this given mission. We know of the current situation near Constantinople. We know our force are tin at the moment.
Emperor Manuel:I am sending all men available I can to Constantinople. We need to defend our home city, capital to the ones might nation we where. This Venice force is a thread to us and our society.
Storyteller: This are harsh times for the Byzantine people. They just manged to get some land of the Turks and are now driven away to take up arms to defend there holy city. A horde of veterans from distant lands has encroached on the coast near the Byzantine capital. Total war is about to begin ones more. This will be called the "Venetian Wars."
Pastor Zeno: A Swordsmiths' guild is available in Constantinople my lord. We can use this to train our men and upgrade there firearm.
Emperor Manuel: Exellent! This is just what we need in harsh times like this.Order your architects to construct it right away!
Pastor Zeno: Will do. Good luck with the up coming war my emperor.
Storyteller: This will be the battle of 11th century. The only army that is standing between Constantinople and the Venice force is an army led by general Mavros. Who has faith in his kingdom and maybe will die for it in battle.
Mavros: I will kill those bloody Venice dogs!

Well I think Giovi could do it best or y2day. They made the medals and badges that are currently in use.
But if your SURE they are going to be used, I'll give it a shot if you want.

Wow cool, with what program did you do that ? The look good but need some change, I suggest an icon of poetry a little star of gold on the gold medal and a silver one on the silver medal. Also there needs to be more detail on the 2 of them.
Maybe this but allot smaller, and then in the left corner of the gold medal.
I also want to tell you Ratbag, I have asked Giovi and y2day for help. Maybe they don't want to help, but thanks that you for sure are helping me. Maybe you alone can help me, but I think it's a job that needs to be done with more people.
