A letter, sealed, addressed to Elliot Brown and delivered by the hand of Cat, scullion at the Broken Dagger.
Master Brown
As requested, some educational reading to address some unfortunate deficiencies. The dates and battlefields should be sufficient for a young man of your resourcefulness - if not, any halfway-competent librarian should be able to assist you in your search.
Kroup's De Historia Amasiniensis is a good starting point for most of these events - Bernhardt of Collingford's translation into the Standard is rigorous, though his prose occasionally strays into the florid. Monteroy's Triumphs of Albarech's Heirs was written for Count Jerestrade (who prided himself on claiming a tenuous lineage from Albarech I) and is correspondingly biased, but his account of the the battle of Mythago Reach is sufficient for our purposes provided you disregard his obsequious commentary. Van Gusteen's Chronicles of the Wars of Salvation is excellent reading in its own right, particularly his analysis of the Almark campaign and the privations suffered by both the local populace and the conquering forces during the winter of AI 1252-1253.
Sincerely
Marek Waldemar
Anteline, AI 1087 - Please note especially the fate of Prince Caspar of Ricathair after his hasty and ill-considered cavalry charge.
Gilead Fields, AI 1097 - Similar to above, resulting in the final extinction of the ancient and once-powerful Gileadoc line.
Lower Colbridge, AI 763 - In which the rebel Baron Darachor's vastly superior force advanced precipitately into unfamiliar territory and were butchered to a man.
Silver Forest Heights, AI 1270 - Note how shrewd use of advance scouts and outriders allowed the Amasynian invaders to secure victory despite advancing into unfamiliar territory with inferior numbers.
Lothaine Expedition, AI 1364 - An attempt by Duke Belloc to reclaim the riches of lost Leonais by brute force of arms.
Mythago Reach, AI 1033 - In haste to supress a Grange uprising, Count Nebworth force-marches his men ten leagues overnight into unscouted rebel territory, with entirely predictable results.
