History

Located on the fertile coast of the Sea of Myrth, Myr is one of the nine Free-Cities of Essos. Myr, prior to its capture by a group of Valyrian adventurers, was one of the last remaining Andal strongholds on Essos following the Andal’s invasion of Westeros. Myr is not a particularly strong though its crossbowmen are renowned across the world for their crossbows that fire three bolts.

Myr is known for its scholars, art, and for its textile industry with the lace, blankets, screens, and carpets it creates fetching high profits. Recently, Myrish art has become extremely popular in Westeros, which could allow a trader to make a sizable fortune if exploited.

With the threat of war between Tyrosh and Lys becoming more likely, Myr may find itself in need of mercenaries. While one of the weaker powers of Essos, a successful mercenary leader could easily find themselves both fame and fortune fighting for Myr.

Religion

Myr does not have an official state religion. Being a trader city, their are many of varying faiths.

Troop Tree

Myrish Troop Tree

Myr relies heavily on slave troops, much like the slaver cities in the far far west. Myrish troops can best be described as cheap and numerous. The slave Warriors will make the bulk of the Myrish (and hopefully not yours!) armies. My lacks any cavalry and archers, most their soldiers are spear based units. This is offset by Myrish lords with the use of mercenaries. The best use for Myrish troops is cheap spearmen for defending archers.

Unique, Heritage Based Troops

Myrish Slave Warrior

The player can recruit the following special, elite troops if directly governing Volantis:

-Myrish Slave Warriors can be recruited in bulk (20 men) if player directly governs Myr.

-Myrish Slave Warriors are featured in the Myr tree, however it is more efficient to buy these warriors, not having to train them yourself. Decent spearmen.

Myrish Slave Warrior

Myrish Slave Warriors can be recruited if the player directly governs Volantis.

Recruiting Units From Myr

Myrish units can be recruited from villages regardless of player status unless they are hostile to The Myr. Additional ways to recruit Myrish units is to rescue them from enemy lords parties, find them in taverns, or rescue them from enemy garrisons.
