Better to have the discussion IC but I'm afraid all I have time for is a quick post here..

I was planning to propose some legislation around the role and powers of the marshall at the next diet session so can we wait until then for this debate? In the meantime, given the state of emergency in the reich, the prinz as marshall authorises all electors to use their own means to recruit and pay such mercenary forces as are necessary for the defence of the reich.

Zirn is an outlaw anyway so probably we couldn't enforce the law against him anyway..
