 Russia, A.D. 1080 Summer
The Rus' are a people divided, though that is hardly a character judgement for the folk who live in the largest single kingdom in Europe. Kiev may actually be the royal capital of this Kingdom, and the site where the Rus' embraced Christianity, but it is far to the north that the true power of the realm currently lies. Positioned just off the eastern end of the Baltic Sea, Novgorod is presently one of the most important trade hubs in the region, while in Kiev, disputes over succession have destroyed any sense of organisation or unity.With the royal court in Kiev in such disarray, it would seem that any immediate military campaigns should be launched from around the trade capital of Novgorod. In fact, the first order for Vsevolod, Grand Duke of Kiev is to re-assert his undisputed control all the way down to the capital to the south. Should he manage this, the Rus' will be free to unify all of the steppes into the mightiest power of the east.Simple and obvious in principle, this plan will require swift and decisive action. The fledgling kingdoms of Poland and Hungary to the southwest are just as well placed to move and assume control of the Rus' capital. Byzantium to the south is also desperate to restore its former glory by taking new territories, and it was only through Vsevolod's marriage to the Byzantine princess Maria that prevented the empire from striking back at the Rus' after they failed in their assault of Constantinople. They will not forget that they defeated the Rus' so recently...This is not something that the present Rus' army should forget either. Unless they can start recruiting from several population centres at once again, they will not be able to field a force capable of stopping any of the serious foreign powers at all.
俄羅斯公國, 公元 1080 夏
儘管對歐洲最為廣袤地區內的諸多分散民族很難進行統一認知，但無疑俄羅斯則是這些民族的總稱。公國定都基輔，此地居民俱已皈依基督，但其真正實力根植於遙遠北部。當基輔為繼位權動盪不安四分五裂之時，位於波羅的海東岸的諾夫哥羅德卻日益發展為該地區最大貿易港口。基輔的政治紛爭愈演愈烈，必須立即從貿易大港諾夫哥羅德出兵平息。事實上，基輔大公維斯耶沃羅德首要謀求的即為迅速建立自基輔至南部的絕對控制權。一旦實現這個意圖，俄羅斯即可統一大草原諸多民族，成為東方最龐大帝國。儘管思路明晰，仍須兵貴神速。西南部新興的波蘭和匈牙利王國無不對俄羅斯磨刀霍霍，南方拜占庭帝國亦虎視眈眈，伺機開疆闢土，以復帝國舊日榮光。先前俄羅斯攻擊君士坦丁堡，不幸慘遭敗績，僅依靠維斯耶沃羅德與拜占庭公主瑪麗亞聯姻，方得免受報復，但毫無疑問，拜占庭對新敗的俄羅斯充滿殺機...所有這些威脅，無一可掉以輕心，因此俄羅斯必須立即整軍經武，以便與強敵在沙場一爭高下。
