Spoiler: RAILROAD (click to show/hide)

High elves have shitload of steel items we could use for weapons and armours and our nobles shouldn't have any bigger problem killing them. This is the safest bet in case of steel as I have no idea when will the Empire come to trade with us.

[Shintaro Fago]

Summer, during which nobles kill more elves than they have fingers and a nigh-unstoppable beast is stopped

Noone was sure what exactly happened. Could it be that the elves saw Wyrmsgold and went berserk? Was it a random peasant wanting to protect tBretonnia from evil mage elves? Anyway, the elves are now dead and their steel equipment is ours.

"We were the ones attacked and had the very right to defend ourselves!" proclaimed Pokonic.
"And it's not like we could trust those creatures anyway" said Kharne, notable for protecting the tavern from being entered by lowborn elves.
"Order the people to bring all the corpses under a roof." Jamcat sighed "Anyone caught stealing from them is to be executed on spot."

No one was sure what exactly happened. One thing was sure though. Elves won't like the fact we've killed both the caravans.

The sound of broken branches and fallen trees woke up the nobles early enough to set up the temporary defences againt the chaos beast. With ten archers armed with iron and the flower of bretonnian knighthood there was no chance they couldn't drive the beast away. Or so they though.
"Where the hell is Deathsword?" shouted Jamcat as everyone was slowly circling in the distance around the juggernaut.
"The leg injury m'lord!" shouted one of the deathsword's knight.
"That's a dam.." started the minor noble but was stopped by juggernaut's sudden charge. He flew a few metres backwards and hit the tree.
"FIRE!" shouted Lloyd charging the beast as Ahra the battle pilgrim run to help Jamcat.

They needed to buy more time for the archers to reorganize. Pokonic knew what he had to do.
"Here I am you fat metal cow!" he shouted and the beast left bleeding Kharne and charged him mindlessly. This act of bravery and chivalry costed him a hand but in th end the amount of arrows stuck in the beast slowed it and, finally, killed. PRAISE THE LADY!

A few days later crippled Khare went to the nearby hill where the beast's body was wondering if that was a test for him to become a champion. If it was, did he pass? And what if.. an arrow flew right next to his head.
"An ambush! Curse them!" he shouted.

He and Pokonic were the only ones who were nearby and so two crippled Bretonnians defended the settlement against slender enemies dressed in black. They didn't even kill the last one when suddenly

With half of the knights injured or crippled, autumn and winter could be their last.

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

Bu the Lady,we will have to stay to the stronghold. And fight our enemies at the gate of the castle. We cannot afford anymore injuries out in the field until everyone is back to fighting condition.

[Sirus]

I told the nobles, I did! We were to let the elves leave unscathed and finish the stronghold walls in preparation for the rat-man attack. Now the slender ones are attacking my countrymen, and even worse, work is disrupted!

[Pokon]

Crap, lost a hand! Oh well, still a badass.

"See that poor fellow over there? He stopped trying to live when he took a arrow to the knee. Me? I lost a hand to a deamon of war and bloodshed and I won!"

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

Can Lloyd live under or above the Grail Chapel?

bit offtopic: I absolutely love the semimegabeasts as I have no idea what to expect from them.

[Hugo_The_Dwarf]

I wish to keep the mood sword and carry a second: I choose the "Sword of the Lady's Champion" since I now live in/under/above the Chapel. Try to make sure Lloyd doesn't hold both swords in one hand, as the reason is for if one arm cannot use one, he has a backup.

[Ahra]

... we killed both the high AND the woods? were they allies or something?

and how am i doing and what are my gear?

[Shintaro Fago]

@Hugo, the mood sword is a two-handed sword, will see if the second one will be possible

We kill all kinds of elves, steal their gear and make artifacts out of their bones. That's the way we roll, bro. As for the gear, it's nothing special really, reinforced leather habit, steel cap, iron gauntlets and high boots, an iron goupillon (a huge mace-like thing used to sprinkle holy water) and an iron grail shield. You are friends with half of the castle and have no interesting scars to show off.

[Pokon]

I shall take the treasure of Araby, if you dont mind.

[Shintaro Fago]

@Pokon, will do!
@Hugo, just in case Bretonnians have also set of unique armour, not really used yet so I would have to edit a reaction but they sure are obtainable:
-antlers of the great hunt
-cuirass of fortune
-armour of midsummer sun
-heraldic mail shirt

So I take it this is a trade off Ok... Hmm...
If the Mood Sword is better, keep it and I'll request the "Antlers of the Great Hunt"
If the "Sword of the Lady's Champion" is better I'll take that. And hope I prove myself farther to obtain the Antlers.

[Teneb]

I'll take the sword of the quest.

From the diary of Wyrmsgold:

The slaughter of the elves, while perhaps just and undeniably profitable in the short run, will run this settlement into the ground if it continues. Did they not see the steel? Did they not see how much steel was frittered away on trinkets that they were willing to trade with a marginal colony of an enemy power? Idiots! Clearly the work of Khorne, or maybe Tzeench.
Defeating the Juggernaut showed me that these humans are...powerful. Their arrows are not merely annoying, they are works of deadly art. And the warrior Pokonic...and the siege...and the Cygor...impressive. I'm having second thoughts about the invasion, for more reasons than this...
The nobles here seem harsh. I hope that these notes are not found...
The people here are excellent artisans. I wish I could reach their level.

--------------------------

I personally think that any race with neat, exotic creatures or steel-grade or higher metals should be traded with, not killed.
