BSG | Event 0025 - Arms Shortage
General Summary
The CouncilYour Majesty, the situation in The South is dire.
The City Watch in many of our cities is understaffed, and now crime is rampant. Even duelling has dwindled as minor Nobles take up other hobbies, like knitting and insect collecting. Pfah!
We must bolster our dwindling forces in The South. Who knows what will happen to our people without protection?
| Result | What can be done to address the military downturn of The South? |
|---|---|
| Nay | Hire a mercenary company to help protect The South. |
| Yea | Conduct an extensive Southern recruitment campaign. |
| Nay | Force farmers to join the Southern military. |
| Nay | The South has no need of soldiers. Leave them be. |
Surely the peasants just need encouragement? Posters featuring the Monarch's likeness pointing at the reader with text saying 'King Calimaco Bladesong needs YOU!' are soon plastered throughout The South.
Once again, King Calimaco Bladesong is thankful for the superstitious commonfolk. Perhaps only out of fear, peasants across The South line up for armed duty. The Grandees of the South are most pleased.
