[QUOTE="haakon1, post: 2500508, member: 25619"] [b]Ket v. Bissel[/b] In my campaign, the backdrop is a huge war between: - invading Ket (mostly LN) with N & LN Perrenlander mercenaries, CN and CE Ull and Paynim mercenaries, and LE orcish plus ettin and giant mercenaries borrowed secretly from their good friends in Iuz. There's a related war in the Vesve Forest and along the Veng River border, where Iuz and the Horned Society are invading, using orcish and hobgoblin armies. And Iuz is messing with the Wolf Nomads and the Rovers of the Barrens, as a side project. - defending Bissel (mostly NG), with domestically hired mercenary Border Companies, LN Order of the Sword far-right troops from Gran March, dedicated Knights of the Watch from throughout the region, church of Rao-back cavalry from Veluna, and a few dwarvish allies. It's not a clear good v. evil fight, more a clash of civilizations (Baklunish with Flannae support from Perrenland versus Oeridian and Suel on the other side of the mountains) and religions than a clash of alignments. On a more scaled back level, I had a neutral goblin merchant who the PC's rescued once, along with other prisoners, and decided to let go. And once, I had a really good adventure where the PC's had to get a McGuffin from a neutral giant, without activating a curse. They ended up trying to steal it and having a big chase and some good fights, before agreeing to live and let live. The giant is now an ally. [/QUOTE]
