[Honors Bastion]

The defenders of the Stony Sept line of the walls of the castle. They only number 200 men strong.

Garrison Composition:
75 Light Inf
50 Heavy Inf
25 Polearms
30 Archers
20 Light Cavalry
10 Heavy Cavalry

Surrender Roll: It will be a 19/20 roll for surrender. Rolled a 20, so the defenders of the Stony Sept refuse to surrender to Lord Crakehall, forcing him to put the castle to siege.

Siege Preparation Time: (2 x 12 hours) = 24 hours - (3 x 6 hours) = 6 hours wait time, which has already passed. I will just need your orders before I roll the assault.
