BALTIC FRONTIER AND FORTIFIED COMMANDERIES · EUROPE AROUND 1330
Teutonic Order
Build an Ordensburg, impose discipline and command the frontier.
The Order’s city is organised as a fortified commandery rather than a conventional royal court. Brick walls, storehouses, armouries and administrative houses create a disciplined frontier settlement whose military and economic functions are visible in its architecture.
Order Spearmen hold formation while Order Crossbowmen and Mounted Knights project force beyond the walls. As the settlement matures, Mounted Brothers and Siege Masters reinforce the faction’s professional character. The Order is visually formidable, but it follows the same fair costs, timings and equivalent combat roles as every playable realm.
Faction strengths
- A coherent military-order identity across city and army
