T
he city of LandsEnd was founded over 125 years ago from the current gamedate.
It was at LandsEnd that the Issilig Empire meet the first wave of the Ranken
Hoard. Several major battles have occured at LandsEnd because of its
deepwater bay. The city of LandsEnd is located on two islands directly
offshore,making it highly defensable. The islands are a naturally
occuring outcroppingsof heavy dorite stone, adding to the defensability
of the site because thedorite once carved and exposed to air naturally hardens.
This has allowedthe city to build into the island mountain and create a
nearly impenetrablefortress.
The
Ranken have tried repeatedly to take the islands but have been soundly beaten.
TheRanken have turned to domination of the country side instead, placing a
strainupon the resources of LandsEnd. Within miles from the city one
can easily pass from Issligi controlled territories to Ranken territories.
LandsEnd recieves most of its supplies
from ships from the south. The people of LandsEnd are very Spartan like
intheir attitude and manners. Often strangers are turned away from
the city unless they are ableto provide proof of their identity.
Military
forces at LandsEnd includes the Legion XX of Octavius and the Navis VIII
of Hosidius. Their standards are shown below.
