Louis von Wittelsbach, Duke of Upper Bavaria
It took him a week to gather just over two thousand levies, eight hundred thirty men-at-arms, and one hundred knights. Had this war broken out before Rudolf's stupid war, then he might have thrice more knights. Maybe even four times more.
But that was in the past. It was his fault that he didn't stop his older brother from charging forward with just men-at-arms, knights, and their vassals.
Because those vassals were now very slowly calling their own banners.
It was obvious what they saw. It was another war sparked by a Wittelsbach against some mountain lords. It was going to be another failure of a war, so why would they risk themselves, their soldiers, and their wealth in something so obviously bad while they were too busy trying to fix whatever crisis that he supposedly caused with the fake coins and new coins?
