I would ride with you to battle the Irish my Duc.

"Ok Alexandre you 'ave been noted.

Given ze approach of ze Scottish zere is no way Bouchart can make it in time, so we need to 'ear from Thierry before I'm 'appy to move. Someone must stay 'ere.

Another zought I 'ad was to let ze Scottish attack and perhaps lose, zen we can move across ze Irish Sea and attack ze remaining Irish forces. Of course zis assumes zay lose.

Your zougths my lords?"

I'm ready to set sail for Dublin, mon Duc.

Or stay at Caernarvon, if that's what you desire.

Alain looks a little more serious and discerning for once.

"A question my lords. If I was to say, not lead the assault, would eizer of you be prepared to attack wiz just your two retainers and two ozer regiments of your choosing, zis season?"

**Andres** · 09-01-2009, 11:33

Depends on the opposition, mon Duc.

Also, being the realist I am, I would also like to know if the ships would remain close by, so that, in a worst case scenario, I could retreat with the remainder of my troops.

I'm not in a hurry to meet God.

"Zat is certainly part of ze reason I ask Thierry.

No risk no reward.

I can confirm zat I would leave ze ships zere for you to use if zings went badly, but ze opposition is as 'known' is it will ever be. Ze Scottish will begin zere siege next season.

We move now or wait."

"I 'ave received important information which means we will attack zis season.

I will lead, Alexandre will join me. Thierry you will stay 'ere and defend Caernarvon.

Good luck and god speed to you all."
