Tax revolt!!!

So..my first wargame for ages. I´m using house rules...a bit of this and a bit of that mixed up to create something that I like. As I can´t just start a battle without there being a reason for it...this is how it will all start :-D
It´s  saturday and market day in the happy little town of Styrow on the Fome
The villagers are going about thier business....
...wares are being sold...friends meeting and chatting...
..children play happily......but all is not well.
Mrs Migs starts to remonstrate with the mayor about the new tax rises demanded  from thier lord and master Sir Hugh Jarse.

The local preist, Geoffrey Black sparrow joins with the argument accusing the Mayor of being a lacky to Sir Hugh Jarse

All this is watched by the local watchmen standing on the steps of the Goalhouse , the crowd jeers at them but they do nothing.
later several of the watch get drunk, taking thier revenge for the insults they had to suffer, beating up several local trades people in a back alley.
Within a short time, an angry crowd has gathered in front of the goalhouse...demanding justice...the situation gets out of hand and both sides clash violently
A deathly shout is heard above the melee and both sides part to reveal the dead body of Alan Add-ale
The shock makes both sides withdraw...but as they do ..a cloaked figure is glimpsed leaving the village.
Who is this cloaked figure and what is his mission?? What will happen next over the death of Alan Add-ale ?
 Welcome to melvin...thanks for folowing :-D
