I decided to get out of Khergit lands asap, seeing as I was alone and I hate fighting horses, even when I have a tonne of men. I think I'll try out some Rhodok troops next (Crossbows and halberds ftw?) I also forgot to mention something awesome that happened during combat yesterday. There was a horseman riding towards me VERY quickly with a big axe, ready to cut me. I had my bow out and thought that switching weapons would take too long, so I took a shot at him. RIGHT.IN.THE.FACE. He went flying backwards off his horse. Boom. Headshot.
Anyhow, on my way to Rhodok lands, I picked up a few recruits of various nationalities, just to have someone to help me defend myself should I get attacked (Or act as meat shields, either way). I found Bunduk in a bar, which made me feel a little better protected cause he's a crackshot with a crossbow. I found him just in time, because, as we were on our way out of town, we got attacked by a large group of deserters (most of whom were elite archers). I took a lot of damage, but we managed to kill them. For some reason they ALL focused their fire on me, so my troops were able to cut them down from behind. Stoopid rchurz. Afterwards I found a bunch of Rhodok recruits and looked around some more for my companions. This game can get repetitive, no? I bought a REALLY expensive book in Jelkala (A Rhodok town) which raises my trainer skill by +1. It's useful for quickly leveling recruits so they don't suck, so it was worth the money I think. As long as it doesn't get stolen -.-
I ended up in Sarranid lands (Desert) and decided to get down to some trading. I needed a little more money - I was comfortable but I like to be rich, so I tried to figure out a few good deelz. So I was on my way to help out some farmers when I got attacked by Khergit lancers. AGAIN -.- Elite troops should NOT roam the open plain. Anyhow, me and my recruits couldn't hold them back, so I got taken prisoner. And guess what? That book I paid 6000 denars for? They took it. This game is starting to get tedious on this difficulty level. 4 srs. The worst part about being taken prisoner is, honestly, that you have no men to be able to defend yourself when you inevitably escape. They enemy just rides you down again - so lame! This time they took my really cool sword! I hate horse people. Bane of my existence, honestly.
Anyhow, I enrolled in a tournament and won again, and bet on myself, again. Won lots of money. That was it for this session. TUNE IN AGAIN, and by tune I mean type in the url, or go to your bookmarks, or whatever. BYEZ!
