This Notched and Rusted Blade

"I've got a debt to pay..."

- Martin Herrick, The Hero of our story.

This Notched and Rusted Blade is a Mount & Blade machinima (using the Anno Domini 1257 mod) by YouTube user Sparky668.

Martin Herrick, a hunter from the damp hills of northern England, has stepped onto the path that separates men from mere boys in the 12th century. In response to the slaughter of their fellow Welshmen, a company of rebels march on Chester. Herrick is levied into Lord Rothbury's standing army and packed off to meet them.

 * Britain Is Only London: Averted, the first few episodes take place around Chester.
 * Only in It For the Money: At first, Martin only wanted to repay the debt of his father's father. Later this becomes his reason for killing.
 * War Is Glorious: What Martin's father told him; however...
 * War Is Hell: Sure seems to be Martin's opinion on the matter.
