Actually, I don't have 200 units. More like 70 units (about 100 after the
current Turn's muster is complete.) My allies have the other units.
But we keep getting distracted, suffering from defections, and other
annoying calamities, I guess because it would be unfair of us to fight our
opponent.
Oh, as for him, he does have about 200 units, all by himself, not through
allies. So you can see why it would be unfair for us to "gang up on" such a
poor, lonely person (only about 40 of his units are Iron Guard and Knights
of Cuireacean, you know, so he's really struggling).
Anyhow, once I get on a rant, I really get on a rant, don't I? I guess I'm
like Joe Bob Briggs that way.
Anyhow, I just wanted you to know that *I* didn't have 200 units all by my
self; I have to get allies to get that many. It is our opponent who has the
large army without needing any allies.

Sorry but your DM is insane! 200 units. What that? Me and my friend have
fight the gorgon in Elinie with 36 unit from 7 realms. How can you muster
200 units. Payroll??? I dont think it realistic. Except if you are the nem
emperor of Anuire and one or two other race. Are you. And who is your
ennemy. How old are you.
Let go guys, be realistic.

Hey, I would never have had either the need or desire to muster so many
units except that is a requirement to fight the foe we are fighting (a
notable NPC, btw).
I personally hate mass armies, and prefer small quality forces (but in my
current situation I am prevented from mustering quality forces, and so
muster mass instead, to deal with the aforementioned NPC and his massive
Assault Horde). I'm not the emperor of Anuire, just some little Guilder,
btw.

Btw, I don't think the DM is insane. In fact, he's probably one of the
more respected DMs/contributors to this forum.
But the campaign is very advanced, and this is a matter of an NPC who is
using one of the tools now made available to people (in his case, the
Maintain Armies spell) by TSR, and some PCs who are using one of the tools
made available to people by TSR (in our case, Trade Route Mania).
We need our force to counter his force in order to save all Anuire from
ruthless Tyranny. Or is it to impose ruthless Tyranny? I guess different
people have different points of view on that. But whatever.
