The Flossians, although their army is not as ready as they might desire, are ready to deliver their first strike to the Principality of Schultze-Böhnstadt.
They are well prepared, have stockpiled rations and ammunition, and a frantic anti-spy activity ensued all along the border, including hinting at an invasion force marching towards the Nordgrühne Kreis.
The Flossian war plan involves:
a) a demonstration with limited foces towards Nordgrühne, perhaps with an opposed landing with boats and pontoons across the Grühne. The force present there should not engage any enemy main army, but tie down Böhnstadt manpower and resources so that they could not be redirected to the main theater.
b) a large irregular raid on the Alt-Störkburg vicinity, using the barely navigable mountain passes from the direction of the Oberschwanseewald. If the raid succeeds, light troops can roam freely and disrupt enemy lines of communication.
c) a main army advance to the Störkburgerthal, including investing in the siege of Rosenheim with heavy artillery, which would be a slow advance and require precaution. If Rosenheim is gained, the valley opens up for the attackers. There was a secret reconnaisance mission conducted by South Flossian Feldjäger a few months back, which showed the fortress in a dilapidated state.
Militia and irregular units are still being directed to their areas of deployment, but the regular troops are already there. Every communication remains secret. The Four Electors are dead set on regaining the Störkburgerthal and oust the Böhnstadter local government.
