Imagination campaign two raids, two views

 Four gamers, three rulers of countries and the umpire.  A lot of ground to cover to bring the campaign up to date, two hours to complete.  

There are three roads used by the Cossacks  into S'Gottland.  Rain came down in buckets,  reducing visibility.  Still, the left and center columns met with shepherds and single vedettes of recent arrivals,  the Dansk Ryitters.  Small wet herds of sheep were found and carried off.

The right hand column had raided a manor house, the seat of the Orlav estate.  The estate owner Baron Octvar, bent to the raiders deployed around his home.  Less thrilled was he about the decision of the Cossack leader, Bohun, to 'engage' the troupe of entertainers to perform in Fuddland for the Czar. 



"This amounts to kidnapping,  "stated the Baron.  He had brought Bab's Band of  Brights to play for his own enjoyment and felt responsible for them.  Bohun off offhandedly guaranteed the troupe's safety. "It's not kidnapping   if they are paid, dear fellow!"

I guess it's OK then, no sense being inhospitable! 


Switching to Dahara's southern border, the Second Coming of Exorcisti's Legion had taken the village of.  Zimhova (18B24)     pretty  much by surprise.  Despite the loss of most of the cavalry patrol stationed in the village,  it seemed likely that at least one trooper had eluded the Cossack Sotnia in the lead of Exorcisti's column. Especially weighted down as they were with local livestock and wine bottles.  

Ar the hospital in the village it was discovered that there were several mid to upper level administrators of the government (flock) using the hospital as a spa location. There are many other things to consider here. Such were Egotisti's thoughts on the end of the first 24 hours.

James,
Obviously the more Southern nations are entangled in feuds and old enmity that can erupt in bloodshed. Forward thinking monarchies, such as Bayerische and Scania, have no history of violence for or against one another.

Luckily the savage business is completely outside the interest of the Empire, or the Serene Scania State, or the United Merchants League.

Only the voice of Orbajosa is left to condemn or confirm violence in this summer season.
