    Default Battle of Willow Wood



    The son of an old but rather financially challenged lineage of Riverlander nobility, Ser Jonothor Paragon had been born at Riverrun and spent almost all of his life there. He had squired with the Tullys and shared every rite of passage with Lord Tully's eldest son and heir, to whom he had been appointed as a sort of...older brother, knight, overseer, governor, instructor type role. Indeed, many said he was a Tully in all but name.

    This time it was no different - he and Edmure were to weather their first rebellion - Seven-willing, their first and last. Leaving his young companion at Riverrun, where he was nominally in charge of the force guarding the Tully seat, Jonothor marched south to the Stony Sept, a strategic move intended to guard against any sudden and unexpected moves by the Lannisters. From there he turned about and marched on Willow Wood, seat of House Ryger and a loyalist stronghold on the God's Eye.

    Commander: Ser Jonothor Paragon (
    +3 Charisma, +2 Battles, +1 Assassin)
    Forces: 4000 Heavy Infantry, 10.000 Light Infantry, 5.000 Polearm Infantry, 5.000 Archers, 500 Light Cavalry.

    Mechanics: Ser Jonothor's Men march south to Stony Sept and then cross to Willow Wood. Depart Riverrun at 23:59PM yesterday and arrive there 4:47 PM today (16.8 hours travel).

    Need enemy forces totals. 90% of whatever High Lord + his vassals that you're attacking.

    I don't know where those numbers come from, but a 2,750 levy has:

    248 H Inf
    620 L Inf
    329 Polearms
    372 Archers
    248 L Cav
    82 H Cav

    Dealing with this as 1 flank due to the numbers.

    Your troops:

    3,945 H Inf
    9,863 L Inf
    4,931 Polearms
    5,000 Archers
    462 L Cav

    Enemy force was wiped out, with around 550 making it out, melting into the countryside.

    I must have done something wrong (Print).

    ---

    Commander: Commander: Ser Jonothor Paragon (+3 Charisma, +2 Battles, +1 Assassin)

    Envoys bearing white flags proceed, offering Lord Ryger his life and peace if he will consent to the following terms:

    - A one-time payment of 7.000 Gold Dragons, to forestall against any raids of his lands
    - Surrender the castle and his remaining levy to Tully control
    - Surrender himself and family to Tully custody

    Asked for a surrender roll. Using HB's maths for earlier (Grassy Vale), 18/20 chance and I roll a 9, surrendered.

    Loot Roll:

    Province wealth: 30,000 Golden Dragons

    Rolled a 19

    19% of 30,000

    Result: 5,700 Golden Dragons gained.
