King Frederick: Congratulations General, capturing those villages along the Gorgon borders will give us a major strategic advantage.
You have proven yourself a fine leader however I still do not yet want your forces to fight on the front lines.
My elite army is marching straight into some of the Gorgon's main cities as we speak. Unfortunately I have recieved word from a scout that a Gorgon raiding party has been sent to disrupt the march and stall our troops long enough for the Gorgons to prepare their defenses. I cannot let that happen and so I would like you to cut off the raiding party as they cross the river into neutral territory. Large natural walls along the river should provide you with enough cover to hide until they arrive. Once they do, I suggest you order your workers to construct walls to block the bridge and hammer them with your archers. Report to me once again when the battle is over, General.
