Thursday's Bridge Battle

This is a bridge battle. As expected, we’ve been asked to take the center bridge. This is way too clever to fail twice. We need to get past the Glory Zone at the center, and then set up our Massive Impenetrable Shieldwall. I can see that we have all 38 scutums and 127 scutari. You’ve all practiced this, so let’s do it the way we did it at Winter War Maneuvers.

There’s archery in this, so Archers, grab your bows.

Artillery, pair up with a shield — we need to have at least one pole or greatsword with each shield. Know your buddy’s name. Guy on the left and right — be prepared to let the spears in or out on command.

After they’ve thinned themselves out by throwing wave after wave at our Massive Impenetrable Shieldwall, listen for the command and we’ll finish this off. Be sure to echo commands while you move — it’s hard to hear under the wall.

Okay, any questions? Good. Make sure your gear’s on the truck, get a drink, and let’s line up on the road. We move in five minutes.

Who’s got the banners?
