09-16-03, 06:48 PM I am planning to run a campaign in the Silver March and after reading about that place I thought to my self this place tend to have big numbers encounter not just your usually party vs few mobs.
So here the big question how can I run an encounters player vs small army, army vs army, army invading a city, or anyone can refer me to a book that can help me run such encounters.

Cry Havoc (http://www.montecook.com/mpress_Havoc.html) by Monte Cook and Malhavoc Press. He was one of the authors of 3E.

Coming soon is Fields of Blood (http://www.edenstudios.net/odyssey/7005.html) which looks a little more in depth for a war.

I've heard good things abou the first, but the 2nd one looks a bit more in depth.
