Reauorkue is a remote island in the remote piece of Unsettled Terriotories: a lawless land, unchained by the Great Powers, with settlements appearing here and there. A filibuster's heaven: many people make their colonies here, some of them survive, some of them perish, and it's hard to keep in touch with all that's happpening here. 

You are a commander of the local militia. For some reason, it is in your duty to protect the civilians, settlers, and other folks around you, from the very dangerous threat. Some time ago, the news about the war between the Kingdom of Mistland(your homeland) and the Immortal Empire(NOT your homeland) started and... the Immortal Empire is quite bizzare enemy. They have a lot of vassals, all across the world, their semi-feudal system of protectorates and colonies is somehow mixed with principalities and petty kingdoms, that are, while being completely separate and different in their levels of civilisation, are loyal to the Immortal Empire. What's the problem? Why should you bother about big politics in such remote place as Reauorke? 

WELL...

There are neighbours. There is a some kind of knightly order nearby. These crusaders have established a fortress somewhere nearby, and the worst part of it is... they decided to help their Imperial protectors... by capturing all settlements of the Misty Kingdom nearby. I hope you already understand WHAT is the problem. 

3000-4000 men-at-arms, armed with God knows what. And with armour, from chainmail to partial plate armour. 

What you have? 

100 men with 100 bolt-action rifles, and about 30 women, children and elderly.

To make things JUST A BIT more easy to you, you could request me to provide you with revolvers(1-5), shotguns(1-5) or maybe a tractor. Keep in mind: The more interesting -- the better. I can give you muskets, or... I don't know, a single Gatling gun? If YOU have a worldbuilding project, you can describe me what YOU would've used, if it's not... not that overpowered. Just keep in mind, your main weapon is your brain. Even with a single-shot rifles, you can have a victory, if you have a plan.

The point of this all is to have fun while trying to solve this 'puzzle'. I gave you unusuall situation and told some facts about my project, and it would be lovely if you come up with something interesting in response, whether you would use the weapons I suggest, or the weapons from your worldbuilding project. 

**As always, you have 48 hours before you heart the drums of war.**
