In my war against the
Swadians, I conquered Reindi castle, and their last capital Dhirim.
http://i.imgur.com/fpUQ1.jpgAfter capturing the capital, I swiftly went on to capture Derchios castle. The Swadians were not pleased and sent 2 armies against me. Around 260 of them against 70 of me. To be honest, I rode over to them to start a fight.... With clever maneuvering, I won, and shortly set up the siege of Tibault castle.
My engineer, Artimenner, told me it would only take an hour to set up the ladders. The ladders were built, and immedietly I led my troops to battle.
After vigorous fighting, Tibault castle was mine.

Rhodoks and the Kingdom of Vaegirs both declare war on the Kingdom of the
Khergit Khanate. In the first photo, you can see the remains of the war the
Rhodoks and the
Sarranid Sultanate. Rhodoks lost much men, a few towns, and the prosperity of the entire north of their nation.
I am considering stepping in and also declaring war on the Khergit Khanate as well to put a stop on these eastern fleas who spread like wildfire amongst the land. The way I am with the Kingdom of
Nords too, ought to have them declare war as well, as I am in ~+60 with
King Ragnar.
