Oh, sorry,  I forgot.
The proposed actions are fine. However the outpost north of mountains should not be built until we actually have the men to defend it. Priority should go to the mountain pass fort, which should be built with stone, since it is locally available.

Since it is spring maybe we could expand farms?

Year Two: Season One: Spring
With the snow melting your economy begins to role into action again, and the farmers start to plant their crops again. Your metal industry churns out another group of breast plates which are sent off to the stalwarts immediately. A few families from both the villages and the logging camp, and see a turn out of 18 men, some of who come with logging axes, the rest come with tools from their farm. It seems that a local preacher has been marching around the local area gathering up the poor and homeless to an undisclosed cause. You direct your farmers to plat some more crops this year, and specify how to properly tend to them

Troops
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Stalwarts
Your position remains pretty much the same as the month before, with the snow gone you are able to work more on the barricade, however with no real project nothing specific gets done, and the men get some what restless as the rangers are out on missions as they sit.

Rangers
Your men set out early in the season to scout out and harass the enemy position, they cross the river in the night and spend the next few days climbing up the mountain while remaining unseen. When they over look the wooden fortification they see that the enemy has built 3 catapults, before the leader forms a plan on what to do next, he hears a shout from the palisade, and sees that he has been spotted,  his men let a few arrows loose, most striking the shields of the men on the wall, but one takes a soldier in the shoulder, but with the mans gambeson keeps the man from suffering fatal damage, only wounding him. An alarm sounds and enemy archers begin to return fire, not wanting to risk loses to his own men, he fires a final volley, and one of the arrows hits a rope on the catapult, and with it the new strain on it tears the machine apart, after this your band retreats, and retire across the river.

Capital
Your men train with the bows and become poor archers, they still fire slowly, and relatively inaccurately but when fired in mass can saturate an area with arrows.
The new recruits join them patrolling the walls.

By the pass in the mountains you task some of your peasants to build a basic barricade, and they do although it is fairly simple, it will help hold off any attack down the pass, if manned.

how do they get all those fancy fortifications? they seem much better than us in that field.

our stalwarts seem restless. We need to give them something to do. They are a garrison, so perhaps we should get them trained in military engineering, if just standing guard isn't enough. bridge building, bridge destroying, more specific fortifications ( like, watchtowers, a proper wooden wall rather than a barricade.)
Maybe it is time to contact tribes in the swamp, we could get a profitable trade.

we also need to assign a garrison to the barricade in the north. I think we can base the northern patrol group there. Of course, the ability to patrol would be impaired until we are able to reinforce them. Sadly, I think our archers aren't trained enough yet.

the preacher is getting the poor and homeless. We have some wealth in our coffers. We need to stop him, and what better way than to get those poors ourselves? we desperately need more men.

Furthermore, we need more weapons for our soldiers. some of the newer ones have tools. Wood axes may be fine, but pitchforks will not do. either we get more spears, or maybe we could start fielding some swords. Personally, I vote spears. easier to mass equip soldiers with them.
However, the people with wood axes could be equipped with proper war axes.

They built up their fortification from day one, and sent the entirety of their recruits to work on it.

At least no one died. They're probably going to strengthen/increase their patrols now though.

Anyways, anyone else got any good suggestions? I'll have a look at the map in a bit and try to think of something we could possibly do.

Just keep training the archers back at the main castle until they've been maxed out. And yeah, we need to try and better equip our units. If we must, redirect production of breastplates to proper weapons and then equip the units with tools first.

Also, I have a question, did our rangers learn of any of their patrol patterns during their operations?

Hello, here (with Elfeaters permission) to take command of the barricade forces.

Anyway, I'd like to propose that alongside building up the barricade, with watchtowers and such, we perhaps begin constructing a bunch of small hidden huts and safe houses in the forest, there isn't much we can do to stop catapults at the moment, but if we had these hideouts then we could retreat our forces into these hideouts and harass them in the rear after they cross. If we had the rangers find these hideouts we would be hidden in locations they wouldn't be aware off, especially since the rangers would know these locations very well.

I agree, but then we need to expand the rangers as well.

Your spy sends one final letter, and sends word of another offensive, but the money you paid him has ran out, and he has left your employ.
