Retinue Details

Below is a table containing the list of retinues at present. There are only four of these at the moment, but each has members from outside its area. This is because when we get new recruits from an area we don't currently cover they initially join an existing area, either the nearest or the one that recruited them. Then when they have the experience, and possibly have recruited a few more people from their area they can then start up a local retinue in their area. However many people are happy to stay with their initial retinue and not start an actual new one.
