Can't add my own over Tapatalk but the accurate professional and militia numbers are in the Goldentooth op.

I'm on mobile but Reyne's troops are in the Castamere OP.

[Oznerol]

ooc: To speed up things this will be mostly aboout logistics, because I already posted all orders.

Lords of the West are summoned to Tywin's tent.

[Gandalfus]

A raven arrives from the Baratheon camp in the Crownlands (7 hours)

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Lord of Lannister,

Let Tully hear the roar of the Lion. He shall know punishment for his attempted treachery, and I hope you deliver it to him. Seven willing, we shall meat again in peace, and fulfil the terms of our alliance.

[Poach]

Raymar comes to Lord Lannister's tent with his second son, Ryon. Donnel was, as far as they knew, still missing. He was, in fact, in the Stormlands with those Holy Lords that had flocked to the Baratheon banner, unbeknownst to the rest of House Lefford.

Lord Lannister wore full armor, a splending suit made in Lannisport.

"Lords of the West, this is our plan"

He unfolds a map.

"We will march from Goldentooth in two groups. One shall pillage and attack the southern lands, starting with Pinkmaiden. I will march North, towards Riverrun and try to take by surprise with a sudden night attack"

He looks at those present.

"If our attack is succesful and Riverrun is taken we will try to isolate Lord Tully and destroy his army with our full might combined. I wish this second host to be comprised by the militias of Castamere and Goldentooth, is that right with you, Lords Reyne and Lefford? You may appoint whoever you want as commander of that host, yourselves included. You will do whatever you deem necessary in your march through the Riverlands, taking hostages would be useful"

[Poach]

"I will march as you command," said Raymar, "but Riverrun is a solid fortress with a complete and wide moat, it will require a full siege to overcome. Better we seek out and break their armies in the field beforehand."

"The Riverlands are wide, Lord Lefford, and our scouts have failed to provide any information of their location. We sent parties to Riverrun, Harrenhal, Stone Mill and its surroundings. And all proved unsuccessful. It's likely they either rallied around Riverrun or Harrenhal, but we don't know"

He said, pointing at the map.

[Gandalfus]

Another Raven arrives from the Baratheon camp (sent in six hours, able to be opened in 14 following that)

Lord of Lannister,

I met a minor setback on the field against Blackfyre. But I still have the numbers. If you bring an army south, I will make you my hand, and give your house the lands of the Riverlander traitors who seek to take my throne for their own. Once this pretender is crushed for good, we shall deal with Tully. Together. Link up with Arryn, if you can. We shall attack from both sides, and crush them.

A raven arrives from Walder Frey (1 hour)

Lord Lannister,

My forces approach Riverrun from the north. I believe that would be the best place to begin a siege. I march with nearly four thousand men. I have left a small garrison to defend the Twins.

[The Mad Skylord]

An enormous hulk of a man arrives at the tent of Lord Lannister. Ser Robar Clegane had arrived with his troops, to burn, rape and pillage the easy target of the RIverlands.

[Oznerol]

Tywin was wounded and bedridden, he received the giant anyway. He was gaunt, but his eyes were lit by an inner fire.

"Clegane"

He said.

"You were expected. Have you brough your band of brothers?"

Tywin made a slight smile. An extraordinary sign of trust.

[The Mad Skylord]

The huge man gave a bow, although he still towered above a tall man by a large amount. His voice was so deep it was like an echo bouncing off the walls in a cave.

"My lord. I come with 2'500 men for the West. 1'500 Heavy Horse and 1'000 Light Horse. What would you have my Hounds and I do?"

[Oznerol]

"Right now I need you here, Ser Robar"

Said Tywin.

"My brother is badly wounded, unable to lead our cavalry. Your hounds right now must remain here until we are again fit for fighting. Once we secure Riverrun I'll let you burn these lands and keep all the loot, Clegane. I have no use for the trinkets the Riverlanders call treasures"

[The Mad Skylord]

Clegane nodded, he was a man of relatively few words.

"Would you like me to oversee the digging of trenches and latrines, my Lord? I can't abide soldiers building lazy fortifications and privies. There'll be enough when boys start dying on the battlefield, without us having to swim in it too."

[Oznerol]

"As you can see I can't do it myself. Use the whip if necessary. Slave the nearby villagers, whoever are alive still, and put them to work"

Said Tywin.

"I want our position to be quite easy to defend. Whoever comes will have to face more than arrows and spears"

OOC: use this yellow, easier to read. I don't mind, but someone might.

[The Mad Skylord]

Ser Robar Clegane nodded calmly, turning towards the flap of the tent. He paused and looked back to the bedridden Lannister, a slight grin cracking on the enormous man's face.

"I hear a Tully married a Stark some time ago. I thought you might like to know I brought my Wolf Hounds in the eventuality that the Northerners show up, my lord."

OOC: What's it called?

[Oznerol]

"They did. We don't know if Starks are moving South, however. Frey should prevent him from coming south, if he fulfills his promises"

Tywin smiled again.

"Good. Now leave"

He looked to a side.

"Wait. You need a better sword. Go to the armory tent, Ser Broom will give you the best one available: a greatsword capable of cutting a horse in half. Fitting for your size and strenght, Ser Clegane"

Tywin had watched Robar in action. Having such a vassal was pleasant. A lion must always have hounds to hunt down his preys.
ooc: House Lannister buys you a greatsword (40,000 GD)

[Lucius Malfoy]

OOC: Unfortunately, Skylord's troops being present with the Lannister army are vetoed by moderation discretion.

Skylord, please abide by militia mustering rules and movement orders. Clegane can be present with the army, but his militia will take 12 hours to muster and plus take time to meet up with the Lannister army.
