Armies of Oerth, Part XX: Onnwal

(Writer's Note: Ha! I managed to get another army list in before the next Scottsz'illa installment. Again, his treatise on Tharizdun's Fogotten Temple continues right here. ...)

Using the Field of Glory wargaming rules & Dragon Magazine #57, here is the latest installment of Gary Gygax's Orders of Battle for certain renowned armies from the World of Greyhawk.

Ratio: 250 men-at-arms per base.

Onnwal's Army List

Onnwal was originally a lesser fief of the Herzog of South Province, to be granted as he saw fit to his faithful followers. The oppressive rule of the Great Kingdom brought great discontent and instigated open rebellion, the whole of the South Province being in arms. All of the lower portion was lost to the empire when the Iron League was founded. Onnwal and Irongate supplied the sea power, while the other members furnished troops for land actions. Irongate was besieged by Aerdian forces for several months, but in the battle of a Thousand Banners the siege was lifeted when a ruse panicked the northerners, and great numbers of them were subsequesntly slain by a combined host of men and Gray Elves of the League. While never invaded, Onnwal is subjeet to periodic sea raids from the Herzog's squadrons. The major port of Scant is exceptionally well fortified because of this fact.

Commander-in-Chief: Count Szek Elverd, of the House of Destan
(F 12th level) = 1 base

Armoured Infantry: 600 = 3 bases
(3 models/base; foot troops, helm & chest armour & moderate shields, hand weapons)

Medium Infantry: 2,400 = 10 bases
(3 models/base; foot troops, leather armour & moderate shields, hand weapons)

Medium Infantry (Dwarves): 2,000 = 8 bases
(3 models/base; foot troops, leather armour & moderate shields, hand weapons)

Medium Infantry (Gnomes): 1,600 = 7 bases
(3 models/base; foot troops, leather armour & moderate shields, hand weapons)

Light Infantry (Levied): 4,000 = 16 bases
(2 models/base; foot troops, no armour & small shields, hand weapons)

This totals 45 bases with 117 models on them.

This completes the armies from Dragon Magazine #57.
Of course, it doesn't stop there. Not just yet...

Next up...The Great Kingdom
