Advanced Battle Course

[Fionn]

This year's Advanced Battle Course will be in Week 2 of Late Earth (unless there are pressing reasons to change it; bear in mind that it cannot clash with a Royal Feast or an important cult ceremony). Do not forget to schedule another course with a mundane instructor as well.

For those of normal Battle skill this will be only another course. Those who have already considerable experience, however, may benefit from considering the proper integration of the three arms of infantry, cavalry, and Death Rune magic.

[If your Battle skil is 5-, any two weeks in the same month will count as a 'course credit'. Battle skill 6+ needs at least one course taught by an instructor more skilled than you in the 12 courses. At present skills are not made public; but I think if you attend your skill level and mine will be mutually revealed].

To Brevet Warchief Baron Fionn Skene,

Thank you for announcing your intention to teach an Advanced Battle class in Late Earth season during week two. I would be pleased to attend and learn from an officer of your advanced standing. As you suggest, I have scheduled an additional week of study as well.

My dear Fionn,

Thanks for your notice. I look forward to attending your Advanced Battle Course in week 2. I am fine when I rely upon my Power to defeat the Lunatics, but if I wish for a career in the General Staff I need to bone up on manoeuvring the jolly ol troops!

Your friend (and student)
