Turn Results:The foreigner had come to conquer Japan, would he be successful? He set his eyes on Kazusa and brought 13,000 Ashigaru with him. The defense force here was light and there was not even a fortification. A small town was all that occupied the mostly open field area here. This place was one of agriculture. Troop Counts:Clegane- Orion Clegane: 13,000 Ashigaru Kazusa Defense Force- Random NPC 6,000 Ashigaru Map:Black dots throughout town is the defense force.

It was time for Orion to stamp his claim in mainland Japan. Kazusa was his target, prior to this he had been recruiting men throughout the region, now his army stands at 13,000. 6,000 men stand to oppose him and 6,000 men shall surrender or die. Orion had trained his army well and now looks to crush his opponent. The enemy has set up in three units, 2,000 (I assume?) leading the van, whilst the other 4,000 hold two choke points in separate units.
Orion organized his men into a line of phalanx, the phalanx line was 5,000 men strong with 3,000 swordsmen on each wing of the phalanx. 2,000 men were at the rear of the formation waiting in reserve for the time being. As the mass army approached the first contingent of men, Orion moved to the front of his lines to address the enemy. He drew his sword as a statement of intent and began to speak.
"Men of Kazusa, I have come to bring peace to the lands of Japan. I have gained many followers from this region, they have seen that my way will lead them to glory and a time of peace and stability. I am offering you the chance to join me, so that no blood may be shed this day. I have over twice as man men as you have, I would like for you to join my army and my cause. I offer these terms. Surrender and fight for me so that your sons and daughters may live in a land without war, or share the same fate as anyone who stands to oppose me!" A rippling roar from behind him blasted out across the battlefield, life or death was now in the hands of the people of Kazusa, fight and die or surrender and live.

Turn Results:
Orion Clegane set his men up in a neat formation and marched to the first brigade of the defense force. After announcing his ultimatum to them many quickly agreed to aid his cause, but most would stand and defend their homes with their own two hands. One of defense forces troops ran off to report to the other men stationed to defend the other entrances into the town. No doubt to gather their forces to hold of the Clegane army much more effectively.

1,000 men had joined whilst 1,000 men chose to fight. Orion ordered the 1,000 men to prove their loyalty and they quickly began to fight the men whose side they had just left. Orion noticed that many of the men were trying to regroup with the rest of the force and to counter this Orion ordered 1,000 swordsmen from each of the flank of his phalanx to stop them. 5,000 men remained in the phalanx with 2,000 men stationed of each wing with another 2,000 in reserve.

Kanza took 2000 men from the Phalanx formation and the 2,000 men that were in reserve and placed 1000 of the reserve on each of the wing of the Phalanx and began to head east to encircle the town.
Orion stood back from the fighting and watched his 4,000 sword Ashigaru began to put the remaining 1,000 to the sword. They had now formed a circle around the men, which made them easy targets as they could not fight in a full force of 1,000. Orion smirked and ordered his main army to move west to encircle the town, he would offer the same ultimatum as he did for the vanguard, once they see that the Van was defeated they should quickly surrender.
Turn summary
-Kanza takes a force of 4,000 and heads east
-The 3,983 men in combat form a circle around the defending 951
- Orion take the main army (6,000) west.

The two enemy units came crashing into the Phalanx, unaware that it cannot be defeated from the front. The spears of the men in the formation stabbed back and forth and the oncoming enemies inflicting heavy damage. The intelligent men of the defenders tried to out-flank the formation but were stopped by the swordsmen on the flanks. Kanza and Orion had now joined the fighting, cutting down men left right and centre. The force combating the Van was still circled around them, taking a heavy toll on the enemy.
