Like many others countries in the Northern Realms, the Kingdom of Kaedwen hold a big and well trained army, full of valorous commanders and brave soldiers able to tolerate the terrible cold weather of the terrain.

Although the Kaedweni soldiers are not the best swordsman of the Northern Kingdoms, they're without a doubt the best in the use of Siege weapon and of the cavalry units;

The "crème de la crème" of the Kaedweni Army was the Dun Banner, a cavalry unit characterized by soldiers wearing beaver cloaks and caps. When the Nilfgaardian Army invaded the kingdom of Aedirn, the unit came to help their neighbors, succeeding in freeing the Lormark. Although King Henselt of Ard Carraigh considered his soldiers as "liberators", it was attested that the treatment reserved by the Kaedwenis to the inhabits of the Lormark was even worst that the one of the Nilfgaardians. Later them, during the Peace of Cintra, the Lormak was returned to King Demavend III of Aedirn.

The Dun Banner took also part in the Battle of Brenna in 1268 where they destroyed the Nilfgaardians soldiers under their clogs.

In the same year, King Henselt marched again to the Lormark and camped his army in the surroundings of the city of Vergen, which later started besieging. That was the begin of a bloody conflict that would last three years.
