Battle For Alicai (World event idea)
Here's one for you DM's that want a world event idea based around the fall/survival of an important city. Alicai [or any city of major importance of the area of the world the players are in] is under siege. The world waits in the distance to see if this legendary city will fall to enemy forces or if it's defenses will push them back. Due to the importance of this city, peasants have begun to mobilize in order to provide a relief/offence to that countries forces. Due to this siege the players may receive side quest around helping either side of the siege, mostly by participating in small battles around the siege, escorting reinforcements & or trying to lead a small section of troops to finally save/fall the city.
