Opening
Laymen believe that a military commander's success is built on their intellect, insight, or personal courage. However, all these qualities are useless if the leader lacks the one that matters most — unshakeable authority among the rank and file, ensuring that they follow orders quickly and without question. The Commander assumed control of the crusader army only recently, and {mf|he|she} will have to quickly master the art of managing a military host. The Commander's early successes or failures in {mf|his|her} new post will determine whether the soldiers trust {mf|his|her} leadership or lose faith in {mf|him|her}.
Objectives
- Wipe out the band of cultistsA band of cultists who participated in the attack on Kenabres is retreating in the direction of Drezen. The first task of the Commander's army is to capture and eliminate them so that they cannot warn the demons.
- Clear the road to the river crossingScouts have reported a significant detachment of enemy fighters on the road to the West Sellen crossing. Defeating them will pose more of a challenge than dealing with a gang of marauders — this will be a baptism by fire for the Commander's army.
- Capture the Vilareth Ford outpostThe Vilareth Ford outpost is a fortified strategic location that guards the crossing to the opposite bank of the West Sellen. The crusaders defended this place until recently, but now the outpost is in the hands of the demons. Liberating Vilareth Ford is a crucial objective for the Commander.
- Find the lost relic of the crusadersAccording to chronicles, one of the crusade's relics was lost in the lands the Commander's army is about to pass through. The power of this artifact would be useful in the march on Drezen. Perhaps it would be wise to spend some time carefully exploring the right bank of the West Sellen.
