EXAMPLE VASSAL

---

House Name: House Franz
House Words: "For Rjillund. For Honor."

House leader: Count Karlo Franz, 38
Seat: Smalldorf
Nation: Rjillund

Family members:

Elizabecca Franz, 34
Jimothy Franz, 20
Rejessica Franz, 21

Summary: House Franz has existed for many years, having been recognized near the formation of House Cassian. It embodies much of the militaristic culture of House Cassian and the lands of Rjillund, and one can readily see this in its many military academies and formidable army. The house has never been too great with ships, and as such only has a small number of vessels during times of war. Smalldorf's location near the Tayd River has allowed it to enjoy an established economy, thanks to river trade and its good reputation with surrounding merchants.

Modifiers:

"We Really Like Swords": +2 Army, -1 Navy
"Our Infrastructure Isn't Bad Either": +1 Castle, +1 Logisitics
"It's Not Our Business": -1 Espionage, +1 Loyalty

Point Allocation:

Army: 3 (+2) = 5
Castle: 2 (+1) = 3
Economy: 3
Espionage: 1 (-1) = 0
Logistics: 3 (+1 from Economy) = 4
Loyalty: 2 (+1) = 3
Navy: 1 (-1) = 0

Culture

House Franz is known for its militaristic style and traditions that exemplify honor and family. They embody what it means to be a Rjillund citizen, and the city holds many contests of skill due to this. Parades are known to roll through the town after victories with Rjillund's foes, or simply to commemorate the anniversary of a previous military win. Academies within the city of Smalldorf are conservative-leaning and its students often find themselves learning much more about strategy and tactics than arithmetic or literature. This isn't to say that the arts are not important in Smalldorf, but there is a much more widespread teaching of all things military.

History

Franz was recognized as a vassal near the formation of House Cassian. Having been a supporter of Emperor Caspian all throughout his reign, the resulting house of Cassian saw it as only natural to bestow the title of "Vassal" onto House Franz. Its founding member, Filbert Franz, was very much a war hero for having led many sorties against barbarians and foes of Rjillund alike. He instilled his experiences in his children, who have continued them throughout the ages.

During each war that House Cassian has been involved in, House Franz has supported their King every step of the way. Though some of its leaders have had trepidation of House Cassian's more iron-hearted, brutal rulers, they have always come to recognize the bond between King and Vassal. As such, they remain staunch supporters today, even in the midst of continent-wide tension between the nations.

Army

(7500 x 5 = 37500 soldiers)

Smalldorf's host is comprised of half trained troops, and half levied troops. Due to its established economy and logistics, most men are at least clad in chain mail, with the more expensive soldiers armored in half or full plate. House Franz is well-versed in military tactics and has a balanced army because of this. Their army is divided as follows:

4,000 Knights on horse (lances, sword and shield)
4,000 Knights on foot (great weapons or weapon and shield)
8,000 Pikemen
12,000 Soldiers (great weapons or weapons and shield)
7,000 Bowmen
2,000 Cavalry
500 Artillery

Navy

In times of war, House Franz spends a considerable amount of its funds on acquiring transport ships. Due to this, there are some companies in the city who have designed some ships that are unique to fit this "agreement". Otherwise, House Franz fields no navy.

Fyremage: Also, we are on a drive to recruit new members to really try and kick this thing into high gear. Please feel free to spread the word. Sept 21, 2017 17:43:44 GMT
