Yeah, I was going to say, you mixed up Wales and Scotland.

Pretty impressive AAR from someone whose only knowledge of British history (and geography) comes from Monty Python and Braveheart..... ;)

Hvil i fred HoreToreA man who casts no shadow has no soul.
After our men were rested and refitted, our army marched southwards to Ivernis, the fortress of southern Ireland.
The land is beautiful. Huge forests, flowing streams, great farmland, I cannot wait to take this place over. In fact, our Bren decided not to destroy any of the surrounding land on the way to Ivernis.
We started our battle quite reluctantly.
The battle started with a cavalry clash on the right flank. We won, easily. But because both sides had similar war paint, I’d imagine how it was easy for some to slip away.
But then some of the medium swordsmen rushed forward too early, and soon found themselves surrounded.
Our slingers gave them all the help they could, but by the time our men got there, the unit of medium swordsmen already took over 75% casualties.
But it wasn’t long before there were only a few enemy soldiers standing in our way.
Our Caledonians were a huge help as well.
But, as before, the enemy got inside and closed the gates before we could get in.
All we had to do was wait for someone to open it for us, it was that simple.
A flawed RTW system will do that.
As soon as they opened, we poured in.
We chased the few remnants of the enemy to the town square.
And under a lovely Irish sky, we defeated them, and secured Ireland.
Our men were so happy that our cavalry even did a victory lap around the town!
Casualties were heavy, surprisingly— we lost 285 men that battle, 27 of those were from friendly fire.
Most likely, this was caused by our slingers trying to help the surrounded unit, but by accident, we caused some deaths on our own side.
With the battle won, and Ireland secured, Bren Barae, who was by this time exhausted from the campaign, installed a client ruler over Ireland, and then took us home. The British Isles were ours.
When we got back, he was asked what he would do next.
He said nothing, merely pointing to a place on the map.
“Normandy?”
