I'm just starting building an Empire army and would really like some advice on what to put in a fairly defensive fluffy Ostermark army. I like the Ostermark partly because of the colours but also I like the idea of them being on the fringe.

Currently I'm thinking of an army with mercenaries as well like a few Ogres but I'm not sure if that fits the fluff. I'd like to put in a couple of cannon but not sure that would fit with the poverty of the area.
