A Strategic Map of the Herefordshire VBCW, showing the position of Leominster in the County:
The strong rumour in the City and County Refreshment Rooms is that the newly established Republic of Bromyard intends a "surprise attack" on Leominster, presumably moving directly east to west along the A44.
As Staff Captain Maynard and Major (CRO) Everard of His Majesty's Forces contemplate this entirely new threat, both realise their position is perilous.
To the north, the Bishops of Ludlow and Lichfield are leading a combined Anglican Army southward from Ludlow along the A49, aiming to recover the captured Bishop of Hereford and restore him to his episcopal throne (and temporal power) in the City of Hereford itself. In order to do so, the Anglicans clearly need to capture Leominster first.
To the west, the Communists of Comrade Colonel Professor Winters, previously temporarily checked at the Battle of Mortimer's Cross, have now re-inforced and 'right hooked' their front along the A44, heading west to east directly towards Leominster.
Assailed on three sides, can the forces of His Majesty's Government save Leominster from falling into enemy hands ?
And if not, to which "Opposition Faction" will Leominster fall?
