Editing ORC TRIBES (section)

==The Call to War==
Male orcs infest northern and southern Erenland in warbands up to 10,000 strong. All told, roughly 200,000 orcs serve in Jahzir’s armies throughout Eredane. Legates and oruks are often called upon to act as their officers, though some orcs occasionally display a knack for military affairs. Orcs mustered by the tribes to fill the Night King’s demand for soldiers travel to Highwall, Fallport, and Davindale. There they meet military discipline and command structures for the first time. Most never really understand either; the only thing they truly grasp is the system of dominance through which they survived the pits. The army maintains three kinds of garrisons in the southern lands: occupied fortifications, pickets, and supply camps. Wherever possible, warbands occupy existing human or dwarf-built fortifications, repairing any damage done during a siege with slave labor. If no suitable fortifications remain near an important site, they have slaves construct long picket-lines of sharpened stakes, trenches, earthworks, and rubble-strewn fields. The loosely built supply camps act as staging areas for armies on the move and resupply depots for stationary and traveling warbands alike. Jahzir prefers to staff these camps with hobgoblins and humans, as male orcs make terrible record-keepers, organizers, and long-range planners.
