Eastern Battlegrounds- training grounds of the Iron domain

Sprawling across the eastern reaches of the Iron Domain, the Eastern Battlegrounds are a testament to the domain's commitment to military excellence. Conceived and brought to fruition by the famed Eastern General, this vast expanse serves not just as a training ground, but also as a proving ground for the domain's warriors.
Spanning miles of varied terrains, the battlegrounds mimic real-world combat scenarios. From dense woodlands for guerrilla warfare training to expansive plains for cavalry charges and mock battles, the grounds are meticulously designed for comprehensive military exercises.
The centerpiece is a large, central arena where warriors can spar, showcasing their individual combat prowess. Surrounding it are specialized zones: an obstacle course laden with traps and hurdles, a siege simulation area with wooden walls and towers, and a firing range for archers and ballistae.
There are also mock villages designed to simulate urban warfare, allowing soldiers to practice building-clearing and street combat. A section mimics marshy wetlands, challenging troops to adapt to fighting in unfavorable conditions. Elevated platforms and watchtowers provide vantage points for commanders to oversee drills and offer real-time feedback.
The Eastern Battlegrounds aren’t just for training; they serve as a venue for recruitment and selection. Yearly, the best warriors across the domain come to compete in tournaments, aiming to catch the eye of military scouts and potentially the Eastern General himself.
These grounds have seen the birth of legends. Many tales are told in the Iron Domain of warriors who, having proven themselves here, went on to achieve great feats in actual battles.
While the constant hum of activity is a given, the battlegrounds have a life of their own. Tents and barracks dot the landscape, housing both permanent trainers and rotating troops. At dawn, the hauntingly harmonious sound of war horns signal the beginning of drills, and by nightfall, campfires light up the grounds, around which soldiers gather to share stories, mend gear, or simply rest.
Regularly, the Eastern General can be seen, either on horseback or on elevated platforms, scrutinizing the drills and occasionally participating, reminding all of his unmatched skill.
In essence, the Eastern Battlegrounds are a beacon of the Iron Domain's might, embodying its relentless pursuit of martial perfection and the Eastern General's vision of an unbeatable force.
