Veterans
DC 23
- Days
- 14
Crippled and wounded soldiers discharged from the army aren't willing to return to their farms, and instead form gangs and resort to highway robbery. There's no use arresting them, as new gangs will just take their place.

They capitalized on their experience and began to bully their younger comrades, ordering them around and creating a new despotic hierarchy in the army. This decreased the regular soldiers' respect for the officers. The veterans were soon dismissed from the ranks to avoid even greater damage, but word had already spread. Recruiting will be more difficult as a result. |

Their valuable experience has made the army stronger. Officers were present to ensure that the veterans didn't overstep their bounds with their younger comrades. |
