When I speak to Marshal and choose "Lets talk about my army" I get the following choices. "Where am I getting my troops", to which marshal responds about sending out a call for volunteers and that any hirelings I have will join me in the battle. "Whats the status of my regular troops", too which marshal responds too green and too few and that loses will likely be heavy. "What special allies do I have available", to which marshal responds that the crucible knights will be sending a contingent. and "That's all for now" which returns me to the main dialogue tree.
