Three weeks.
Sixty guards.
Ten instructors.
Most of the guards are giants, but some are decently large humans. While most are equipped with polearms, some have matchlock arquebuses.
Despite having weapons with longer reach, they aren’t particularly successful at warding off bandit groups based on their previous records.
They rarely caught the bandits, and when they do, they cannot close the distance due to their eye irritant powders. Sometimes, their equipment were unknowingly covered with sticky substances that made using their polearms and guns difficult.
From the reports, the bandits carry knives and swords, and could have used them in combat, but preferred to flee or use the powders. Perhaps they are afraid of these guards being replaced by more competent ones?
