Our Mission

Our mission in times of peace is to provide scouting reports, every turn, of:

  1. all foreign regions adjacent to our lands, so we may be prepared against forces massing against us
  2. all our lands which border foreign lands, so we may keep a watchful eye on visitors to our realm
  3. all our lands, so we may locate monsters and undead before they can cause damage

Army Insignia

By the High Marshall's orders, all unit names should be prefixed by the army insignia.

Insignia: -SF-

Paraphernalia

Scouts are essential for accurate data.

Since each scout can only provide one trained report each turn, it is important to have a large number of them. You are encouraged to have at least three, if not more, when reporting for a new assignment. Extra scouts will be helpful if you are scouting into regions in conflict.

Check the Banker's bulletin to see where in the realm you can find scout guilds.

Assignments: Seven posts of the Serpent's Fist

You can expect assignments to last up to two weeks, so be sure to bring enough gold to stay in the field that long.

When on assignment, be sure to Dig In where possible; this slows damage to equipment, saving us (and our Warchest) gold.

Every region in and adjacent to the realm should be scouted every turn. To this end, the marshal will assign units to the seven posts of the realm: Mapo, Aja, Rogeshore, Veshin, Jauchu, Lanston and also to army headquarters in Lerss.

Patrols in each location, every turn, should scout every region they can reach with a few exceptions listed below:

Jauchu is responsible for scouting all nearby ASI regions with the exception of Ser'quea which is the responsibility of the Lerss scouting post. This post also exist to improve our ability to defend Inxi.

Veshin will scout Ash'irly, Worav, Wor'ight and Veshin. Yacon is to be scouted by those assigned to Lerss.

Lanston IS NOT an ASI region. It belongs to the Protectorate of Magnus. However we of the Serpent's Fist are to provide our protection to the Protectorate as well. All scoutings done from Lanston are to follow the same guidelines as all other regions, and we will assist in monster/undead combat.

If you do not have time to scout all regions, foreign regions have the highest priority, followed by ASI's border regions, and finally ASI's internal regions. For all posts, regions which reports of monsters or undead have been received, scoutings of those regions are of the highest priority. In many cases travel will require alot of time and will not allow for detailed scouting of all regions, therefore if monsters/undead have been reported, a scout report of the region containing the threat will be collected and the person who collects this report is asked to send this report as usual to the rest of the army and move out to combat the threat.

Similarly, if you do not have enough scouts, scout high-priority regions first(Foreign regions and/or regions which you have received rumors of monsters or undead), and get only un-trained reports of low-priority regions.

Analysis is encouraged if (real-life) time allows for it.

Send scout reports (and any analysis) to the army list; be sure to mark it as a Report, not a Letter.

Per-turn debriefing time is as much as six hours; therefore, when possible, two TLs will be assigned to a post. They will work out amongst themselves how to divide the work among each other, but if reports are not filed, both will be held equally responsible.

Assignments: Monster/Undead Hunting

Monster/Undead hunting use Turtle Defense A. It's in our standing orders and it's here now.

After a battle post the battle report.

Assignments: Realm Restoration

Keeping our realm regions functioning at their best also falls to us.

Since our ranks are composed of Bureaucrats, Realm Restoration is to be led by them and Arch Priest Beircheart.

Nobles that are not assigned to normal scouting patrol duties will be assigned to Realm Restoration.

Nobles assigned to Realm Restoration will be responsible for raising realm control with Police Work, Region production with Civil Work, and Moral with the combination of both Police Work and Civil work along with Story Telling if you are a hero.

Arch Priest Beircheart along with the bureaucrats of the SF have authority, through me, Korvian, Marshal of the Serpent's Fist, to give civil/police work and Story Telling assignments to any knight assigned Realm Restoration duty.

Post all results of Police/Civil work and Story Telling to the entire Serpent's Fist.
