Cagil News Agency Dispatch:
In a stunning display of disorganization and stupidity, forces of the Barony of Makar attacked the fortified city of Leohampton without the assistance of their Ithilian allies. Insider sources confirm that the Barony leadership misread communications and ordered the attack too early. Recriminations and childish whining were soon flying back and forth between Ithilian and Makarian nobles. The Makarian "horde" were last seen in full rout, retreating in disarray with their tails between their legs.
Further displays of military "prowess" from the northern realms were on display in Alaise, were King Kerwin of Eston led his knights in pursuit of retreating Cagilan troops into Cagilan territory... right into Cagilan relief forces holding the local palisades. Over a third of the hapless Estonites were cut down in the first archer volley. The rest were quickly mopped up by by Cagilan forces, who charged out of the palisades before the cowardly Estonites could retreat.
With such brilliant minds leading the northern realms, it is no wonder that the war has been a strategic disaster for the northern alliance.
