The year is 2980 of the Third Age. The Silvan Elves have been underestimated for years now, and the time has come to show Middle-Earth what we are made of!
At this time, we have 3 great settlements. One in the northern reaches of Mirkwood, and two down south in Lothlorien. 10.000 is currently in our treasury, which is enough for now, but not enough to drive a war. Before long we will run out.
A messenger arrives with a message from the High-King Elrond of the Elven League.
I order the men to clear all the roads in our provinces, dusting away leaves and filling in any holes in the tracks. Our men will soon be able to travel along these paths much faster and merchants will have greater accessibility. Dirt Roads are starting to appear.
I command the common folk to pay me more tribute. They are civilians and elves, and must be treated with respect, but in times of war money is needed, and a Very High Tax rate is necessary.
The spy that was resting in Lothlorien is told to gather information about our enemies, so he heads off to the misty mountains.
Warriors are trained in every possible situation. Mainly archers with a few melee units.
Legolas has a few soldiers with him in Mirkwood. He merges forces with most of the garrison from Thranduil's Halls and he moves south.
