The Covenant of Colon announced the death of Prince Holstadt at the Battle of Hoegaaden against the forces of the Reich Duchy of Beestein. Since the Prince had no heirs his lands have been ceded to Lord Calvert von Boozewick. Paintings of the new Hesse Boozewick army will be posted over the next week as our spies submit sketches to the Reichstag. However, we now know the composition of the Hesse Boozewick army:

Brigadier, Sir David Linienblatt liberates Alesgarden

Brigadier, Sir David Linienblatt's Foreign Legion has liberated the Barony of Alesgarden. Although reports are still coming in, all of Beerstein rejoices! Reich Duke Wilhelm has invested Sir David with the Military Order of the Golden Crown for his outstanding campaign against the the Covenant of Colon's Hesse-Holstadt forces. During the Battle of Hoegaaden, Prince Holstadt was killed by a burly sergeant of the Dun Haggis Highlanders. Sergeant Patty McDuff will be presented to Reich Duke Wilhelm during the annual Christmas festival of the Beerstein holiday tree.The untimely death of Prince Holstadt has serious damaged the Hesse-Holstadt alliance.
