Attackers: Siege Equipment

11 (+3): The attackers have completed defensive barriers around their camps on the West (Ecclesian) side of the city, making it much harder to raid or guerilla fight against them.

The attackers currently have a large number of ladders, ropes and grappling hooks as well as log rams to try and batter down the gate. Attacks by skirmishers at least on the west side are no longer very effective due to attacker defensive perimeters.

Defenders: City Defenses

9 (+1): Wards have been placed in the sewers to further defend against goblin incursion as the city cracks down on those who try to take advantage of the situation for personal profit - including criminals.

The walls are manned and towers equipped with ballista's and catapults. The city has reinforced the gates and has magical protections.

Defenders: Supplies

19 (-2): A number of hobgoblin pirates roam the seas near the city, attacking merchant shipping, and they are now supported by Sahuagin attacks. The sea-route is slowly slipping closed and only limited supplies are able to get through.

The city is using 6 supply each week and receiving 3 as the land routes on the Eccles side are blocked by the orcs and hobgoblin and Sahuagin pirates cause issues for sea-based shipping, for a net -3 per week.

Bloodport has agreed to send supplies, but it is limited in number of ships, so when it comes, it may be necessary to defend it. Bloodport also agreed to take up some refugees, which may help with the supply situation if they can run the blockade.

Attackers: Hoard Size

110% (+10%): The horde has grown in size again as additional orcs flock to the horde and some of those who withdrew in recent weeks have returned

Allies & Advantages

(+1?) Bloodport has promised a contingent of troops to support the defenders, which should arrive in 1 week.
