Suggestion, put this in the OOC section of your thread, this is for strictly game play. Makes for less confusion. I am interested in this and may particpate. LAso all the other RP's you have startedin check in the OOC sections, they have value information you are missing, such as Character Sheets, Background Info and etc.

This does sound like alot of fun count me in. Ill throw some numbers down for ya.

No reason not to take the max amount of footman, the more pawns the better. So

Footmen: 3000

Archers: 350

Knights: 50

King: 1 of cours

Calvary: 150

Peasants: 60

Race: Drow

War Machines: 3 Trebajeys (SP) 2 Battering rams, and 5 Crossbow Cantapults. (Not sure of real to life name)

Ya, may seem a little typical but no reason not to if you think about it.
Let me know what you think. And hopefully something can get started soon. Im extremely intrigued
