This order allows a character with command skill to create a new army by hiring a single troop type at a population centre. The character will then become commander of this army. This is the only order that will create an army where there was not one previously. The maximum number of troops which can be recruited at any one time depends on the size of the population centre, and how many troops have already been recruited from it that turn. The minimum army size is 100 troops. You must also indicate how much food will be transferred to the new army from the population centre stores. All new troops will come with a base training rank of 10 and a base morale rank of 10. Heavy cavalry, light cavalry, heavy infantry and light Infantry come with the specified weapons and armour (if there are sufficient stores), Archers come with weapons equivalent to steel but no armour, and men-at-arms come with bronze weapons and leather armour, both at no extra cost. In these cases, enter ‘wo’ weapons and ‘no’ armour, and they will be automatically allocated the correct equipment. If there are not enough stores of the appropriate type to produce the requested armour or weapons, then the weapons and/or armour issued will be changed accordingly. The new army costs 5000 gold regardless of its size, which must be available in the nation reserves.
