We could probably have a few vikings in the FC, which are said to have discovered America in the 10th century IIRC
Anything's possible in this world

Post up. Part three is underway. I've set everything up prior to contact. No need to rush into bashing brains, but don't hesitate to get under way. The scouts will be crafty, while the cavalry will fight a delaying action. I've given numbers in the post, but to recap, the enemy has about 300 infantry and 50 cavalry, all men-at-arms. They are tired, hungry, demoralized and ill-equipped. That's something you will discover as the engagement progresses. However, they can still fight, as they are desperate. The Company at present has 75 light cavalry and 50 scouts. The balance of the force is coming...
For those with infantry characters chomping at the bit, feel free to create a quick scout or cavalry character to get into the action--no bio necessary. Just be sure they don't supersede orders and do something boneheaded

Just a heads up. Several key people (handling various roles) are either on holidays or MIA, so no need to wrap this up quick. We'll take a few days. However, if the response continues to drop off, I'll likely wrap this project up early.
