Captain

(image)

The soldiers have a saying ''The captain's cloak must be paid with blood''. There is three cases when lieutenants gets promotion: firstly, lieutenant can be promoted when he makes the feat of arms, secondly, lieutenant can be promoted when his captain get promoted and his post is vacant, lastly, lieutenant can be promoted when his captain get killed and his post is vacant. Lastest happens most often. Captains are field commanders who fighting on the front line ahead of their companies. All enemies of the Wesnoth know captain's coats well and everyone seeks to get head of those coats' owners. Anyone, who managed to survive two years as a captain is either a great warrior or a favorite of fate. After five years of service captains usually gets promotion to colonels, and that can happen even earlier due to exceptional merit.
