Friegisch Terror

In 1468 AtS Roderic von Falkenheim, baron of Friegisch, led a sizable fleet south, anchoring some distance outside of Öbergänger and presented the small town with an ultimatum: surrender of be crushed. The small town, unable to defend itself surrendered, allowing Roderic's forces to enter unopposed. From here, he led a sizable contingent to Niedergänger where he took the city by having his forces throw lit torches onto the roofs of the town and then breaking down the gates in the confusion. Finally he led his forces north to the wealthy town of Sternfallster. The town resisted him and his army for multiple weeks until his fleet managed to perform a risky night-time landing. The town was then taken, the defenders slaughtered and the town pillaged.
Finally, Roderic turned his forces east to the Castllie of the Silver Rose, specifically the castle-town of North's End Cross. The castle-town's massive walls and well trained knights however proofed too much for Roderic's armies. The siege dragged on for several weeks then months and when the army was just days from starvation, Roderic ordered a retreat. The knights of the Silver Rose rode out in pursuit of Roderic's army and utterly crushed it, causing him to loose two-thirds of his army in the clash and the following confusion.
Roderic returned back to Friegisch, where he proclaimed himself as duke of his new duchy.
