A Twilight of Empires

Selling Out

Bored and impoverished barbarians have always found ready employ in neighboring wealthy empires, especially during civil wars. Thus players are free to put some or all of their troops out for bid. Any desired restrictions may be applied, and any contractual arrangements agreed upon between the parties. As with all such arrangements between players, they are worth the bytes they are encoded with, honor being the sole guarantor.

Such an army may be advertised via the email group, or this may be handled by notice in the newsfax under the Mercenaries section.

These armies must come with their own leaders, though contingency orders may be left for others to manage them should these be slain. Units are considered to be part of a Feudal Ally nation, and thus must be ordered to return home by the end of the turn. If left leaderless, they will move directly homeward despite this handicap.
