[QUOTE="Ion, post: 3693339, member: 16028"] My PCs are in a position to move a large army of mercenaries from the Vast across the Dragon Reach, into Scardale. They plan to restore order to Scardale Town, and dissuade any Sembian or Zentarim forces from carving the dale up for themselves. All in the name of a fairly good natured but mostly unknown Demigod who is looking for more followers. Once they launch, I don't think getting into Scardale Town will be too hard, anarchies don't usually have real big standing armies. However, I suspect it will take a reasonably large force to put the town under martial law, and restore some sort of order. From that point on, what do you think happens next? How does the fairly ineffectual provisional governor Kelvor and his council react? What about the neighboring dales? I expect that the PCs will want put someone back on the throne (but certainly not the "rightful" heir Scyllia Darkhope). If one of them doesn't claim the throne I expect they will give it to one or two NPCs they are friendly with. I don't want to get too bogged down in a blow-by-blow of each battle, how would you run a war like this? [/QUOTE]
