My Prinz, consider at least Arhus as a first target. It is within a short march of Hamburg and is a rich city, perhaps rich enough to fund the reclamation of our old lands to the east. If we leave Arhus in enemy hands then Hamburg will certainly be attacked again, a fate the city does not deserve. If we capture Arhus, the capital of the Danes, they will have a long, hard march to retaliate or they will face the wrath of our English allies on the seas.

Arhus can be used to secure our flank and allow an unthreatened push eastward back to our old borders.
