"The Hands of Anton"
The Messian Company riding on an Eastern Plateau
Preamble The Messina Company traces its origin to the City of San Toderna. Founded by a coalition of the refugees of San Toderna, the mercenary company finds itself dual-employed as the official standing army for the City-State. The company has since become a notable fighting force in the Eastern Frontiers as it serves to protect the interests of San Toderna. The Messina Company operates as a centralized organization, comprised of a standing army of warriors. These soldiers, drawn from diverse backgrounds and bound by a common cause of loyalty and riches, apply their trade across the sun-drenched expanse of the Eastern Frontier, striking fear into their enemies with lightning raids and audacious tactics. The company employs a wide array of tactics that harnesses the training of each individual soldier. Medics are trained in the art of battlefield triage and emergency care. Cavalry units become adept at reconnaissance and hit-and-run attacks, a staple of the company's image. Light Infantry become skilled in maneuver warfare and rapid deployment. Logistical specialists find themselves responsible for the flow of personnel, equipment, and supplies to sustain the company's operations.
