That will be ironic when the revolution comes... I mean killing the Mountainhomes' army with weapons made of metals they gave you.
I support it though.

Journal of Lt Alfred

 I have received a new letter from the mountainhomes, it was delivered by Shinn, the captain of the Skyfire brigade, it reads:

  "Lieutenant Alfred, your last letter has caused the king much hardship, Hammerscar is almost lost to the Revolutionaries but they can be beaten without wasting blood, but because of the radicals lust for blood, our kingdom's friendship with the human empire is in danger,  so it is your task to stop the Radicals from further harming any humans and for that, the king has sent 4 of his legion soldiers to help you, they said they know you and have worked under your command before, they will arrive undercover disguised as refugees.
The king has also ordered the Skyfire Brigade to help you, they will arrive at proximately the same time as the migrants, and if you're reading this it means that you and their captain have already shared some words with each other."

The Skyfire brigade, not much is left of it, only the leader and 3 other men with hardly any real experience, at least they're here unlike the four dwarfs who were supposed to help me, in the letter it's said that they worked under my command, I have yet to see any of them tough enough to be like the men I have served with.

Sitting around chugging sunshine and whip flour and berry roasts instead of fighting and training hard has that effect on a soldier. I'll try my best to pick out what's best in the unconscripted masses to serve as your loyalist squad.

Ordering them to train for every month for the rest of their lives will fix that I'm sure, they'll be sorry they ever volunteered to serve as Lt Alfred's squad.

Nah, I thought I explained this? probably not, anyway they won't be undercover, they'll be somewhat undercover they'll be like neutral/only care about HammerScar's safety but actually be loyalists and only care about beating the Radicals and Revolutionaries to control Hammerscar in the name of his majesty! so they'll fight side by side with the revolutionaries every now and then.

Also, shouldn't Pan be the unofficial Baron appointed by the king because of his "loyalty" while Alfred and Shinn will share the position of unofficial captain? not as in actually being in the nobles and admins list but only be treated as that by the loyal citizens of Hammerscar, of course this will also cause sects or whatever they're called being formed between the citizens but isn't that what HammerScar is all about?

Ah, yes you did explain this. My bad. And yes, fight the Blackdiamonds together! They and their leader Brewster are the ones undermining Hammerscar with their uncontrolled killings.

The thing about factions is that Hammerscar's citizen are 80 - 90% revolutionary or radical. That's why they came here, after all, to get away from the corruptness of the Empire back home. Loyalists are often divided in how loyal they are, and will always be the undercover minority.

Also, Pan just wants what's best for Hammerscar - he doesn't like the King too much, either, but he knows if this all carries on we'll die from the Crown's wrath. Shinn and Alfred are more loyal to the Crown than he is.

I guess when the revolutionaries win, Alfred and Shinn will have to leave Hammerscar and find refuge somewhere else to escape the wrath of the king for failing the task he gave them.

That, or they'll see the decadence of the king and join the true dwarves! Also yeah, we probably need iron. And bronze.

I would try to take a turn but so far, all the saves of Hammerscar that I have downloaded get 0 FPS so I can't really do anything at all but look.

Revolutionaries please.  I don't care about skills or anything, but a part in the military'd be cool.
