Arfid's Army

#1 Post by sulldawga »

Arfid starts out with 420 soldiers in his army. According to D@W-C, p 22, if an army has 600 or fewer troops, organize its troops into platoon-scale units. Platoon-scale units are 30 infantry or 15 cavalry. 420 soldiers divided by 15 cav platoons is 28 units. 28 units is a little higher than normal but not, strictly speaking, against the rules.

Arfid's Leadership ability is 6. This means his army can have up to six divisions.

First things first, check my logic here.

If it matches up with what you've got, can you assign your troops to platoons and then to divisions? And then tell me which division will be commanded by Arfid and who will command the other five (or fewer) divisions?

At platoon level, you only need to be 5th level to be a commander so you could have Pa Tado and the other 5th level fighters/explorers be division commanders. Or you can have your other higher level henches get at it as well, depending on the officer characteristics.
