Warhorse Express - Station #24
Dear Lord Sluvia,
I am responding your questions concerning the Warhorse Express. Basically this is how it works: There are 30 stations spread out, 25 miles apart, across my Kingdom. The capitol is in the middle of my country, and 15 stations are on one side, and 15 on the other. Each station houses, two archers, a horse-handler, two horses, and a commandant. Once a week a wagon or two under heavily guard travel down the road and deliver food, hay, and supplies to the stations. The archers and commandant take a 8 hour shift, with all of them sharing the Tower Bed. So always two defenders are awake. The Couriers can pull up at the stations with laden with urgent news and be gone on a different horse several minutes later. The horses can travel at full speed, thus making a fast messenger system incase of attack or other urgent things. I hope this answers all your questions.
Sincerely,
King Malvark Of Gerania.

My first castle! The idea came from the Pony Express, so I thought of making a medieval pony express. This is what I came up with. Enjoy!
