This is Caldaria, a land ravaged by wars between the 5 great nations: The Nords: Unparalleled infantry with heavy chain armor, and large axes for fighting and throwing. The kings and lords are hot headed and traditional
The Vaegirs: The balanced peoples, the kings cool headed and a variety of troops excelling at horsemanship and light infantries.
Kingdom of Swadia: Heavy Cavalry oriented with reliable heavy infantry, their lords and kings are very cautious, being in the center of the continent
Khergit Khanate: Born in the saddle, and die in the saddle, these people hail from the steppes, they excel in horsemanship, and their leaders are master hit and run tacticians, prolonged engagements are the bane of their existence
The Rhodoks: They're the best at killing horses with their spears and men with their crossbows, they are perfect for defending areas and will do it with their lives, not surprisingly their kings are the same
These kingdoms have fought for centuries. They are in desperate need of nobles and vassals to help raise armies for their constant state of warring.
This game will include a lot of talking, debating, etc. and not be all action so be prepared for it.

I feign an attack to his left, but I make a quick right and slash at his neck. If he blocks, I wait for him to make an attack, then side-step, causing him to fall off the wall.

neither works as he isn't very worked up, and is controlled in his movements, as with his type of troop, there isn't a way around that shield from the front short of crushing it

Okay, plan B. I push this fu**** off the wall.
I slowly try to get around him, weapon and shield at the ready, as if I'm circling him, looking for a weakness in his defense. Once I get behind him, I put my shield up completely, and charge/tackle him, trying to force him off the wall.

Shiessa, thought I posted already.
When he tries to make a quick jab at me, I parry with my sword, then give him a good kick to the stomach. When he's doubled over, I make a slice at the back of his neck.

you kick him in the stomach, but instead he stumbles back, and of of the wall, you take a peek and see him impaled onto a fence at the bottom, but you then see your troops being bushed back, a few are forced off by the strong shield pushes of ht Rhodoks, you're starting to take more casualties than it's worth to hold the crowded walls. -2 foot, 5 militia

****. If they outnumber us, we'll pull out and take up a defensive position at the edge of the cross-bows' range, and we'll shoot at them until they set up their crossbows, set up a shield-wall, or get too close. We'll set up at an ideal rendevous position for those who were forced off the wall.
