Using the corpse as cover, he grits his teeth through the pounding charge. He tightly grips his sword and tries to slash out at some of the horses' legs as they gallop over him, hoping to topple them and do anything he can to make things easier on the pikemen. He lifts his sword to slash at a horse leg, but before he can swing a hoove lands directly on his wrist. He cries out in pain as the calvary passes. Moments later his wrist his throbbing and his ribs hurt, but he is otherwise okay, aside from the corpse atop him. He shoves the corpse off of him and shalily gets to his feet. He picks up his sword, and twirls it all around once or twice to get a feel for any possible wrist damage. After doing so, he quickly surveys the battlefield.

He sees that the calvary charge has broken through the pikemen, who were not prepared in time for the charge. He hears an enemy warhorn and looks towards the enemy line, further down the field he sees about 100 louvette warriors charging down the battlefield screaming warcries. Around him, fighters battle, the Selwyn bannermen numbers are dwindling as Louvette soldiers join the battle. He hears hooves and turns back to the Calvary, who seperates into two groups and rides back down to the enemy line, along the outskirts of the battlefield, killing anyone in their way. They are probably preparing for another calvary charge.

His family crested armor commanding a moderate amount of authority among lesser born soldiers, he bellows out as he retreats. "Pikemen! Dig your pikes into the ground, brace for their horses! Archers! Thin their infantry! Warriors, prepare to charge! And for fuck's sake, do we have any cavalry?!"

Archers! Thin their infantry! Warriors, prepare to charge! And for fuck's sake, do we have any cavalry?!" Commander Crosse gives him a look then looks back at the warriors, "ARCHERS AIM!!!" He raises his hand to air then swipes it downwards, "FIRE!!!!" The archers let loose a volley of arrow fire at the charging horde, the arrows land in armor and in the dirt, screams of pain erupt through the battlefield, but they keep charging, "WARRIORS!!" he screams, "CHARGEEE!" a horde of Selywn Bannermen converge from the line and charge down the field towards the other warriors. As sword meets sword and shield meets shield, the warriors battle in a large group. The sound of steel clanging against steel rings through the battlefield. Suddenly the sound hooves behind him catch Frederyc's attention, "CLEAR THE WAY!" Ser Dontos Krem, a renowned warrior known throughout Westgard as "The Golden Lance", shouts at the warriors. His golden armor gleams in the sunlight as he sits atop his white stallion, who also is donning a gold based armor. His sharp gilded lance is held in his right hand, and his steel tower shield in his left. Upon hearing the command, the warriors raise their shields and weapons against the enemies and push them left and right, attempting to split the group of warriors. "HEEYAH!!" He screams as he kicks his horse to run, he charges into the horde, holding his lance forward. He mows through the middle of the horde and doubles his way back, shield bashing and impaling anyone in the way. Crosse shouts, "CLOSE THE GAP!" and the warriors push the enemies closer together. As the enemies knocked down by the charge try to stand up, they are thrown back to the ground by Selwyn bannermen. Within minutes the horde is defeated and the warriors carry the wounded back to the line. "BARRICADE!!! DEFEND THE LINE!" He screams. Soldiers carry wooden spiked barricade shields to the front line and other defenses. Archers move up to the new line in wait, along with spear men with their shields raised in a shield wall. Small groups of Louvette soldiers rush towards the line, but are dispatched quickly by archers, as more soldiers push up, a warhorn is head from the enemy line and the Louvettes retreat. "They are retreating!" Dontos shouts, "We should chase them and off them while they are weak." "NO!" Crosse barks, "We have our own wounded to worry about, We have Pentel troops coming from the north any day now, and they will mow through the Louvette front line like the dragons they base their house off of. I'm taking a detachment to move the wounded to Darkwell. Dontos you are in charge until I return." Dontos nods and Crosse walks away. Dontos looks at Frederyc, "How do we know they aren't regrouping?"

Dontos looks at Frederyc, "How do we know they aren't regrouping?" "Aye." Frederyc says with a nod. "They likely are. Good riding back there Ser Dontos. You should round up some men and keep the line defended. Watch for sneak attacks; knowing Louvette, it wouldn't be a surprise if they tried some trickery in the night."

When do we ride for battle? And have you any idea of our strategy?"
