With a spear in hand, these men are no heroes, but they are stalwart defenders of their Lord. “ You shall fight at his Lordship’s command and his whim. You shall be better than you were, for you wield and wear the arms of his Excellency! And you shall die, if that sacrifice be demanded of you, but you die well for the cause of our Lord. ” Peasants form the bulk of their lord's forces. Some receive no training at all and are simply rounded up and pointed at the enemy. Men-at-arms are the lucky ones. When they were paraded before their lord, he decided they had the potential to fight back and ordered that they be trained. Still, the training and equipment that men-at-arms receive are not very good, and whilst they do receive some pay, it is far less than you might expect for risking your life. Most important, they are given no choice in the matter. As a result, it is not uncommon for men-at-arms to seize any chance to desert, and many deserters take up a life of adventure.
