When Lord Arval asked me about my past victories, the others in the room – Carlena and Parrin – looked at me expectantly and I realised that this was a pivotal moment. Part of my mind scrambled to put together a story about being a real general. Perhaps I could remember enough about the campaigns of Alexander the Great or Julius Caesar from my games of Classic War to reconstruct convincing episodes? This part of my mind saw my companions as being in need of reassurance and justified making up a history for myself as a great general on the grounds of the value of inspiring confidence in their commander.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdeBXzhZuu
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEchNNnQJ6M
On the other hand, if I lied now, I would be stuck with having to remember my backstory for my entire time here and inevitably the fake history would have to grow and grow. Even thinking about that made me feel tired. Moreover, these people were no fools, none of them. Probably, they would be able to detect my bullshit and evasions.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfqhldEc8P
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZc1jYXxE7
If we were to turn the fortunes of the realm around and conquer the twenty-five kingdoms, Arval, Carlena and Parrin needed to become heroes in their own right and be utterly dependable too. You didn't lay the foundation of a victorious team on lies.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvM3f7KF1o
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DFO05qzyW
Then too, I knew that if there was ever a time to explain that I was not, in fact, an experienced general it was now, when they had no qualms at all about my leadership.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUs6R80TRQk
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9E9xyMnjt
'I'll answer that question, Lord Arval, but first I have to explain something about the world I come from.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAWINEqEJx

'In my old world, there are no menus for planning the realm, no magic at all and no levels to be obtained by specialists like us.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUWE12Rqzr
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuTVzT46EV
'No menus?' Lord Arval shook his bald head. 'It must be chaos. How does anything get done? What would stop everyone from making their own plans?'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpLFDEcm5B
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuJEo729JT
'Staying on the topic of my battles…' I really didn't want to be deflected into the politics I'd left behind, 'we have games… tournaments… that are very much like what's happening in this world, Regnia. And it is in these tournaments that I have fought and won battles like this one: much bigger battles, with thousands of troops.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXo3KbFXj8
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uNSrYeb2i
I wanted to try and express that my game playing experience was a transferable skill to their world. That no commander in real life participated in battles with enemy magic and monsters coming into action, whereas as a gamer I had fought in hundreds. But as I struggled with how to phrase this point, Lord Arval spoke.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMYaeg7Beg
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpei6YxI4tf
'Tournaments?' he looked puzzled. 'Of thousands?'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9rUOZbFLk
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfReQ5YaMoM
'Yes, indeed.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Kr1qVxUgo
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFYs5p09VV
'Did the soldiers die though?' asked Carlena.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhv6VDxhWEf
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkAGv5c0wY
'They died as if they were soldiers, but most were only… models.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPrCekjZb3

'Golems?' she offered.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1t3R7E1JM
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx5B4Qj70y
'Yes. That's quite a good comparison.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64vgp52HlY
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpc3zkJtWKz
No one spoke and I could not judge the mood of the room until Lord Arval said, 'well sire, if you would, can you tell us about one of your battles in a tournament?' This was greeted by looks of interest from Parrin and Carlena.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJv0O1s8BRd
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtm0XxM2FEE
'Happily.' Whether it was the flush of victory that was still upon me, or the wine, or the sense that these people were still with me, despite my confession, I really did feel happy and I enjoyed recounting the final battle of the Crown of the Frost Giant Kings quest in Storm Wars. There, I'd led a raid of over two hundred PCs as we fought alongside a dwarven army in a battle with frost giants.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZyO4n9R2j
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4VBRHWYkd
I was just explaining how we broke through the shield wall of the bodyguard of the frost giant king when the sergeant of the ballista crew came up the stairs.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmhn47tOA3

'Apologies for the interruption sire, we have the coin.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuc3Sfx5e5
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvnL21NfkW
'How much.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKWhFCn74G
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBzNsiilus
'Ten gold, a hundred and seventy-two silver and a thousand one hundred and eighteen copper. Plus a few bent and clipped ones.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkaYAh4mpF
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr263jrfPjM
I knew from the economy menus that a gold was ten silver and a silver was ten copper, so the total was 3,838 copper. Arriving at that figure was manageable in my head but to divide it by our 114 soldiers wasn't possible without a calculator. Or maybe I could come at this a different way. If each soldier got 30, that would be 3,420. Then that left 418 divided by 114, which was somewhere between 3 and 4.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GG0Dq7BuX
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekeOeMFBvL
'Right so, give every soldier thirty-three copper, including our dead. The families can have it. There will be about eighty left over. That can go in the castle coffers.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHH7kJIoZXZ
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZoHc9bfzX
'Very well sire.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6BloBbv15
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27FBLHmH1m
The soldiers were getting about a month's pay. Not a bad reward and surely one that would help with my popularity.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGK2o3nzgaQ
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8djn34WcEZ
The sergeant left and I stood up, feeling the aches of my tired muscles. 'I'll tell you about the rest of that encounter another time, if you are still interested.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEie54EQ9T
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtTPZwn5zR
'Lord Arval, any thoughts on our dispositions before I go?'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdtCalpXY7
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHpaDQ803P
The Paladin rubbed his beard. 'It might be wise to keep the light cavalry here to scout and half the archers and the ballista. The rest could be granted two days leave. Then give the other half their two days and once that is over, station most of the army here with enough at Carrick to hold the walls against a sea invader.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUxUaIhOpa
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbjCJCvte0
'Make it so,' I did the best to keep a smile from my face as I uttered the words. 'I'll return to the keep at Carrick. I'll be needing a cart.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2uh0DCu0k
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRFgiCiVY9
'Wait. Shouldn't we consider going on the offensive?' Carlena asked. 'Their morale must be shaken right now.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6evrsIzlE2
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0utO85heN
The three of them looked at me.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGR6XOtwXEl
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1PjO93OGx
'That had crossed my mind but let's suppose we march down the valley and engage the other half of their army. What's the best possible outcome? We regain our farmland. What's the worst possible outcome? We lose everything: the whole realm and perhaps our lives. So even if there is an advantage with us, it's a mistake to take the gamble. Especially as this is an excellent defensive position.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHWsihCcMr
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpb1YjjDbUz
The Sorceress nodded and I continued on to the top of the stairs.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2oSX2CkJU

'What about the prisoners, sire?' asked Chancellor Parrin, bringing me to a halt.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iugYFhtJ0
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX415wMoRTj
'What's the usual practice?'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeWmugCP1F
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabfNSae3QL
The chancellor shrugged, 'keep them locked up and perhaps arrange an exchange or include them in truce negotiations?'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGZZWVatYm
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5QJvqYTI0
'The problem there is food. We are desperately short. There's no tradition of killing prisoners then?'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35N5pYqFTt

'That's possible,' observed Carlena, 'but it has consequences. Since they will hate you, it will lower your popularity among the people, which is critically low as it is.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BQrAvTJQ6
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCP1GP3L0C2
'Right. Oh well. Keep them under guard here for now, minimal rations. Chancellor, as soon as you feel up to it, I'd appreciate you scouting the enemy again.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9HyWQ7M7R

He nodded and still poised to descend the stairs – impatient as I was to get back to Carrick – I addressed the Paladin.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPds26UZqW3

342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTaQLaXdbc
'Then please use it on Parrin when you can. And how about you Sorceress?'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKlRSwdn8c

342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6W71qWbhH
On arrival at Carrick after an extremely bumpy journey (during which I searched and discovered I could upgrade the road, which when I had completed more urgent upgrades would be useful for swift movement as well as a more comfortable journey), I bid goodbye to Carlena.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAY4nMY5bI
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLATMmoFAYi
On entering the keep I found Figus, my charismatic ambassador, seated outside the solar, waiting for me. He was eating an apple and this caused him some embarrassment as he stood up to greet me and couldn't find a place to put it. Eventually, he just gave a twitch of apology, put it on the arm of the chair and made his bow.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0Gcu9OgJW

'Soon enough, but first tell me about your mission.' I strode up to the throne and took my seat, waving away the guards and servants, so that just the two of us occupied the large room.

'Well sire, I rode through Trolland while there was light, skirting their villages and sleeping in the barn of a farmer whose wife took a liking to me. On the morning of the second day I crossed the river Everwald and into the territory of the Necromancer. By afternoon I met the man himself, holding court in a large tent among his troops. And I have to say, I didn't care for the stench of his troops. There must have been a hundred zombies among them.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdOBVYpYN6

'Well, I introduced myself and explained my mission and it startled him. I don't know what he was expecting, but it wasn't a trade deal. We talked it over and when he realised it was an iron for food agreement, he grabbed my arm, stared into my eyes and said I had to tell you the following: "King Carlos. You are the first of any rulers to send an ambassador to me. I appreciate that. And I appreciate the opportunity to send you our excess food in return for iron. Here's my offer: for each cargo of fifteen iron ingots that arrives to our docks, I'll provide you with a hundred-and-fifty units of food in the form of sacks of grain and rice."'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39f9ankzuO
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJA1AnEupe
I let out a whistle. My intuition was that this was a good enough rate to solve the food crisis and with room to spare; I'd do some detailed calculations later.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYkJct0V9B
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfDDCZL8GI

My ambassador glanced at me, perhaps to confirm I was being sincere. I doubted King Carlos ever gave thanks or compliments. Then Figus nodded. 'And now, sire, if I may, can I trouble you for the details of the battle.'342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMl7Gf0XZWq
342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGv3iyg65jG
It was no trouble at all recounting our victory at Three Ways and Figus made for a particularly attentive audience, encouraging me to provide specific details, such as those of the sounds and smells. Only when a servant came to light the lamps and inform me that dinner was ready did I stop. And even then, having invited him to join me, our conversation was entirely about the battle.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IJKiqzu1V

During the day, iron and meat production had edged up, as I had anticipated, and that was very welcome. Iron output should go up again after I assigned the waiting 24 steel pickaxes from the smithy, which I did right away. Food consumption, however, had gone up to 15 from 13, perhaps the result of capturing around 30 enemy soldiers. Even on minimal rations, that was a noticeable drain. It left me only four days away from running out. I felt a chill all over my body, despite the fact I was under warm covers. All the good of the today's victory could be undone unless I solved this issue.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvSLOSy7F6
