11.26 The field-leader rank in the guild.
The rank of field-leader is bestowed upon competent guildmembers by the head of a guild. It allows the field-leader rank holder to interact with and manage the villagers and cityfolk youngsters enlistable and/or enlisted in the non-military working legions of the guild's broader membership. Many of the functionality for moving the worker legions resemble those of the military - for the sake of convenience and familiarity - but the purpose of guildworkers is far less one-dimensional than troops. Enlistments, for example, are expressly performed in special dormitories and NOT in barracks. Guildworkers may have a peaceful goal, banding together in great numbers to achieve pacifist or creative objectives. The special skills available to a field-leader and his or her guildworker legions varies from profession to profession. Here, however, is a list of your basic field-leader commands:
ENLIST <guildsman> To enlist a guidsman into a worker legion.
FORTIFICATIONS To review guild fortifications.
WORKERS Reviewing a summary of guild workers.
LOCALE [<dirn>] To review legion formations nearby.
SURVEY/BANNER Summarise your location/legion info in locale.
DISPATCH Interact with dispatches (see HELP DISPATCH)
MARSHALL Take up command-post of a legion (see HELP MARSHALL).
LEGION The all-important legion command (see HELP LEGION).
LEGIONS Review through legions under your banners.
HELP TRAINING Info into specialist-skills and legion training.
Even those workers who do not initiate combat may, if not a part of a pacifist guild, fight back if attacked - thus the existence of PASSIVE. See HELP SPECIALS for details of special workerlegion abilities, unique to guilds and/or professions, and how to bring these specialists forth to display their wares.
