In the principle there was nothing, out of nothing Aion emmerged and started creation by making the Sun. He then felt lonely and created for himself a wife, Fiena, who in turn created the Oceans.
They had many sons and daughters who in turn also had sons and daughters of their own and the pantheon of deities reach the hundreds but the highest creation of Aion other than the Sun was the human race. The other gods and goddesses became jealous of him and created other races in their own image but none as highly and nobly blessed as the humans who stride in the world confidently as the chosen race of the father god.

You are one amongst the many tribes of humans who compete for supremacy on this continent. Who are you?

> The sea people. You make your livelihood by fishing and trading the precious tin that you have a near monopoly over to the other tribes. Start with a trading outpost, a tin mine and a merchant/fishing ship.
> The horse people. You live and die on horseback. Start with enough horses for your whole population and a little surplus.
> The river people. You live in a river valley where food is plentiful. Starts with twice as many people and population growth rate is doubled.
> The mountain people. Isolated in your mountain city you hoard your riches. Start with a gold mine.
> The forest people. Eking out a living in the forests is not as easy as it might seem. Your whole militia is trained in the use of bow and arrow.
> The cave people. Old habits die hard and your tribe never really left the caves, we know the cave complexes like the back of our hand. Start with a silver mine.
> The cow people. Your massive herds make you a dependable trade partner but also a target for frequent raids. Starts with a large catttle herd.
> The sheep people. Herding lots of sheep means we get to be warm in winters. Start with a large sheep herd, no penalty to raiding and outside activities during winter.
> The wolf people. Civilization is overrated, we live like our ancestors did and we take our feral companions with us in our hunts. Starting population halved, start with partially tamed wolves.
> The sand people. What the sea people is for the sea we are for the land. We reach wherever they can't or won't reach. Starts with a trading outpost, trading caravan and a herd of camels.
> The storm people. Believing themselves to be the chosen people of the gods we spread their message everywhere. Starts with a temple and priests.
> The hill people. Folks used to good life in the hills. Starts with tobacco, spice and hemp farms.
> The crystal people. Wizards love to hoard all sorts of weird trinkets but these people found a type of crystal that improves spellcasting abilities and built their lives around mining this thing. Starting population halves, start with a mana crystal mine.
> other

We are the river people. We have settled a land where food is plentiful and a pair of hands eager to do some work will always find enough meals to sustain itself. This boosts the confidence of the local population who in turn have larger families increasing the population growth rate. The ground is pure clay from all the floods from the rivers though, stone is hard to come by and mining for ore is a joke - we'll have to figure out some other way to acquire the riches of the earth. At least there are some trees nearby.

Living in this valley for a few years has garnered us quite a reputation with the locals.

Pick two other factions for we to be in feud with, two other factions for us to be allied with, one faction that we own a favor to and one that owns a favor to us.

Town Name: Green Rapids.
Allied with: The Hill People. A lot of us are distant kin, as they are geographically closest to us. What one lacks in necessity, the other makes up for in luxury. It's a very good symbiosis we've established.
Allied with: The Sea People. Our main trade partners. They make ample use of our waterway to peddle their wares inward.
Feuding with: The Sand People. They grow jealous of our fertile lands and fresh water, and how we allow their briney rivals access to their terra firma territory.
Feuding with: The Cave People. Cave People are just assholes.
Owe a favor to: The Cow People. They've sold some of their livestock to us very cheaply before, to bolster our farms, and it's a debt we shan't forget.
Owed a favor from: The Mountain People. Food is scarce high above the clouds, and this winter was harsher than most. When their stores ran dry, we offered aid, and their coffers will surely repay the favor.

Another year has came and with it plenty of opportunities for our population to thrive in this land we call home. An emissary from the Brown Island children, our long time allies, come in a few boats up the river offering their wares to us. They bring copper and tin and are wondering whether we wouldn't trade a vast amount of food for the precious metals they're bringing us; apparently they intend to go all the way up the river and sell the food to the Quiet Tower Kin.

We planted our crops for the year. The lion's share of our food has been given away to the Brown Island Children tradesmen in exchange for their haul of tin and copper, so we ended up planting a far meager amount of lots than usual. It might take a few years until we fully recover from this blow on our food production; we can only hope that we don't have any unforeseeable events concerning our farms so that we don't end up starving in the middle of the most fertile lands of the continent.

We start the construction of a workshop; once this building is finished we'll have a central area for crafting trade goods.

Since now we have some metals we could build a smith to experiment with forging them.

Explorers from the Gray Rage Tribe are sighted by our town guards roaming our territory. Upon being hailed they say they've been tracking a group of elves who stole horses from them. They believe the elves are hiding somewhere in the forests near our settlement. What should we do about it?

We consider working on our agriculture since our food supplies are getting low but there's not much we can do about it in the middle of summer - the crops have already been planted and are growing. Our food production should normalize over the course of a few years. To speed up the process we could buy more grains from one of our neighbours so that next year we can plant significantly larger fields than this year instead of marginally larger. We still need those grains to eat so we can't possibly plant everything or we'll risk starvation.

We let the Gray Rage explorers look for the elves in the forests in our territory. After a few days of search they are unable to find even a clue of where the elves could be hiding and call off the search.

Our scholars and wisemen start to research bow and arrow manufacture. We should be able to unleash the power of such a weapon soon.

We send a group of scouts to explore north of our town. They find a ruined stone temple to some river deity, the runes in the door read Izarae the Goddess of Rivers. It has a half sunken underground level that our civilian scouts dare not venture into. This seems like a job for a group of adventurers!

>>2865759

Without a tavern it is hard to find adventurers so we resort to have a man advertise in the middle of town about the opportunity to get paid to explore the Izarae temple.

We attract the following adventurers:
> Gylas, the Brave. A veteran warrior with a bronze sword. 40 TG
> Geoffrey, the Daft. A young warrior with a copper tipped spear. 20 TG.
> Ancin, the Stinky. A local hobo with a club. 10 TG.
> Wulfa, the Mystic. A wizard apprentice who can cast magic missile. 60 TG
> Johny, the Steady. A warrior with a bronze plate and a bronze tipped spear. 50 TG

Who should we hire?

>>2865789
>> Johny, the Steady. A warrior with a bronze plate and a bronze tipped spear. 50 TG

>>2865797
This, but if we can hiee more than one I want Geoffrey too

> Geoffrey, the Daft. A young warrior with a copper tipped spear. 20 TG.

>>2865797
>>2865803

We hire Johny, the Steady and Geoffrey the Daft to go explore the Izarae temple. They promptly departs towards the temple.

Upon arriving there they enters the temple, with Johny leading the way. They descend a flight of spiral stairs unto a half sunken corridor with seven wooden doors in varied stages of rotting.

Kicking the first door open they enter a bedroom with rotten furniture and a couple chests underneath the beds with silver holy symbols; the following five doors are pretty much the same except that in one of them one there's a corpse in one of the beds and the corpse gets up to attack them! They fend of the zombie and Johny kills it by piercing its head, but not before it manages to bite Geoffrey. Inside the chest in this room they also find a silver dagger. All in all they found 12 holy symbols and a silver dagger.
Upon kicking open the last door they find a masterfully crafted statue of the river goddess Izarae holding a crystal ball.
They try to pry the crystal ball out of the statues hands and accidentally open a secret door. They don't manage to get the crystal ball though.

Venturing into the secret door the water from the half sunken temple flows inside it as they move in. It appears to be a cave of some sort, perhaps an emmergency exit. Walking around in the dark cave is unsettling. After awhile they see a light in the end of the tunnel and keep moving towards it.

By the time they get closer to the light they find a small band of murlocs inside the cavern. They promptly draw their weapons to slay those disgusting creatures. The murlocs put up a fight, armed with flint daggers, but they're soon killed by our two adventurers. Searching the possessions of the murlocs we find one of them with a key tied around its necks.

Johny and Geoffrey take the key back to the half sunken temple and search for any place where it could fit; and sure enough, in the entrance hall there's a small hidden opening that fits a key. Once the key is turned a large lock moves out the way and a small vault with a large amount of old coins is exposed - must have been where they stored the offerings for the church.

Johny and Geoffrey loot the coins and head back town.

They arrive and tell the tale of their adventure.

Thinking about getting a reputation as generous patrons we allow the adventurers we hired to keep half the coins they've found at the temple to Izarae. The coins were worth about 300 trade goods, so we get 150.

We also send for a healer from the Silent Fury Tribe we can hire to heal him. Upon hearing from our envoys that it is a case of a zombie bite one of the local priests promptly travels to our city. When he finally arrives Geoffrey is on the throes of death, feverish and babbling incoherent stuff, the infection having taken hold of him really badly. The priest begins his magical healing ritual and in a few hours Geoffrey is out of the woods. The priest recommends that Geoffrey abstains from biting anyone in the next few weeks while the magic works the zombie plague out of his system; but all in all he'll live and will be alright. The priest agrees to receive a donation of 50 trade goods in exchange for his help.

We had our harvest this year. We should have enough spare grain to somewhat improve our food situation on our next planting season.

We tend to our crops, planting larger fields than the previous year. We're slowly recovering from the massive loss of grain from our trade deal a year ago.

We finish researching bow and arrow, now we can train troops to use such weapons.

We hire 10 spearmen to boost our military. They begin training and patrolling the edge of our territory at once.

We're being raided! Looks like the Silent Cave Children are mustering their forces on a raid against us, no doubt to steal our property!

Roll 1d100 to determine how early we notice them attacking us, DC 70 since we don't have much in terms of early warning systems in place. That will determine how much preparations we'll have time to make before they arrive at our town.

We fail to notice the Silent Cave Children advances into our land until they're right on top of us, killing farmers and invading homes to plunder.

Still the alarm is given and we assemble a last line of defense near the largest clump of houses, passing on clubs and spears to the men that haven't fled the town in panic.

The Silent Cave Children seem to have brought about 300 people armed with clubs and spears, and about 10 warriors wearing bronze armor.

We can now recruit militia from our population at a cost of 1tg per militia men, usually we could hire up to about a third of our population but since we've been surprised we can only hire half that many, about 350 people at most.

Morale: 3/10 (-1 taxes -1 surprise attack)
Treasury 1320 trade goods

So who do we recruit to face the Silent Cave Children?
> 30 town guards
> 10 spearmen
> up to 350 militia (1tg each)
> other?

And what should be our strategy to engage them?
> Rush in and attack them head on

> Divide in two groups try to flank them
> Divide in three groups try to surround them
> other

>>2866326

>>2866326
> 30 town guards
> 10 spearmen

>>2866383
>>2866414

We send our town guards our spearmen and 350 conscripted militia men to the frontlines, keeping a defensive line and letting the enemy come to us.

And they do come for us! They send a small group of about 50 people around our defensive lines and clash with the remaining forces against our militia, their 10 warriors leading the charge.

Roll 1d100 DC 45 for the result of the first clash of our forces

The first clash goes relatively well for us; although we lose about 10 people we manage to land many lucky strikes with our spears in our enemies and bring down about 40 of them.

As the fight gets into very close quarter the people with clubs get a slight advantage over the ones with spears.

We see the 50 guys who sneaked past our lines coming back with a bunch of loot trying to avoid our forces. The enemy is starting to disengage some forces to cover the fleeing guys with the loot.

How should we conduct ourselves now?
> Press our advantage, rush and kill as many of the retreating enemy as we can
> Disengage about 100 people and send them to pursue the 50 guys carrying loot
> Order everyone to rush after the guys stealing our stuff
> Keep fighting defensively and holding our lines
> other

>>2866468
So OP how many guys are we facing currently, Since we killed 40 does that mean the attack force is reduced to 10, with the 50 looters?

>>2866489

>The Silent Cave Children seem to have brought about 300 people armed with clubs and spears

No the attacking force is reduced from about 250 to about 210, plus the 50 looters.

>>2866468
>> Keep fighting defensively and holding our lines
Kind of want to play the save route, kill as much as we can. Since we re population quickly any death to the Cave tribe a big blow, so let's aim to kill most of them while saving ourselves.

>>2866468
> Press our advantage, rush and kill as many of the retreating enemy as we can
Lets make this costly for them

>>2866500

>>2866497
>>2866500

Noticing that our enemy is starting to retreat with the loot they got from us we give the order for our troops to press our advantage rushing and killing as many of the retreating enemy as we can intending to make this looting as costly for them as possible.

Roll to kill disengaging enemies DC 40

As our enemy is focusing on getting their looters out of dodge they leave their lines in complete disarray; noticing that we're quickly to take advantage of their sloppiness and start our killing spree. We manage to kill off about 60 enemies while they're scrambling to protect the people carrying the loot.

By now they're in full retreat, with the loot secured amidst of their warriors.

What should we do next?
> Pursue them
> Let them go
> other?

>>2866529
>> Pursue them
But don't go inside the caves

>>2866533

Instead of letting the Silent Cave Children go we consider launching a counter raid against them, following them on the week long trek back to their home base in the cave complexes at the mountains. Are you sure?

>>2866546
wtf? That's not what I meant, I meant we kill all in the area, shoot them even but not spend a week long terk just for shit loot.

>>2866552


We attempt to give pursue to the Silent Cave Children but they outrun us and are on their way back to their home base, we decide it isn't worth a trip there. We assess how much stuff they looted.

They got 30 bars of tin and about 200 worth of trade goods in assorted coins and precious materials.

We start researching a code of law for our growing population grows restless with uncertainty about the resolution of their many conflicts inherent to city life.

Without a tavern it is hard to find adventurers so we resort to have a man advertise in the middle of town about the opportunity to get paid to go kill some wolves.

We attract the following adventurers:
> Gylas, the Brave. A veteran warrior with a bronze sword. 40 TG
> Ancin, the Stinky. A local hobo with a club. 10 TG.
> Wulfa, the Mystic. A wizard apprentice who can cast magic missile. 60 TG

We hire Gylas the Brave, Ancin the Stinky and Hames the Stout to go deal with the wolves.

After tracking in the forest for several days they find themselves ambushed by the wolves a couple times; the first time when the tracks lead them to the pack tracking some deer our adventurers were viciously attacked by three wolves but managed to defend themselves, wounding the wolves slightly, and the second time one wolf came straight at our group and attacked them during the night while they had set camp in the forest and was killed by Ancin with his club.

After a few more days of tracking they finally found the wolves den and are quickly surrounded by about a dozen wolves.
The alpha wolf emmerges from amidst the other wolves and stares at our group intently. Ancin says "You gotta beat the alpha wolf then the others will submit to you. Watch and learn!"

He then jumped at the alpha wolf club in hand and attempted to start clubbing the creature but then it tried to bite him and he managed to stick his club inside the wolf's mouth. "Help! HELP!", screamed the hobo.

Gylas and Hames promptly jumped in to help but then the entire pack of wolves also jumped in to attack the three adventurers. A bloody battle ensued where Gylas expertly slayed four wolves including the alpha one by slashing him in the throat, Hames killed a couple wolves getting badly bitten and Ancin somehow managed to avoid being biten even though his clothes were reduced to rags having given a beating on several wolves with his club but didn't actually kill any.

After the alpha wolf was killed half of the pack of wolves that survived the fight dispersed, fleeing from the battlefield. Inspecting the den of the wolves more carefully our adventures found amidst the bones of several dead deer a bunch of wolf cubs - that's probably why half the wolves fought till death.

The adventurers bring back the wolf cubs as a spoil of their battle and deem their job complete. They arrive in town and tell the tale of their adventure and Hames go get his wounds treated.

We plant our crops as usual, more than last year, we're still recovering from that trade deal years ago.

We spend the spring crafting trade goods to increase our wealth.

We send a small trading caravan to the Ancient Tooth Tribe to sell them the wolf cubs we have acquired. They are very pleased with the offer and we on top of that give them a 20% discount. They end up paying us 400 trade goods for the wolf cubs.

We consider our options to cut down the time for construction. We can buy extra construction turns for a price by hiring vagrants, people from other tribes and our own tribesmen willing to work overtime to work on our construction projects.

The costs are as follows
first extra turn - 100 tg
second extra turn - 200 tg
third extra turn - 300 tg
fourth extra turn - 400 tg

and so on, so if we want to buy for instance 5 extra construction turns in one turn it would cost 1500 trade goods (100+200+300+400+500).

We hire 10 bowmen; they promptly set up a range for training their aim and go on patrol duty with the remaining of our army when they're not training. Currently the tips of their arrows are fire hardened as we don't have smithing facilities available to make arrowheads.

We start researching bronze manufacture; luckily we have people already with the knowledge within our town so we have the theory down, as soon as our smith is finished we should be able to start making bronze tools and weapons with the tin and copper that we have - two bars of copper for each bar of tin gives off the equivalent amount of bronze bars.

A trade caravan from the Brown Hill Clan arrives at our town.
They're offering to sell us hemp buds, cigars and spices. They intend to travel through the land selling their goods for profit and made their first stop here.

We buy a small sample of spices and drugs. We could use them to slightly improve morale of our population temporarily. We barely have enough for just one season. Should we distribute the spices and drugs?

We send a trader with a retinue of 2 spearmen and 2 militiamen hauling trade goods tasking them with buying some horses. They come back saying they bought 5 light horses from the cow tribe for 75 trade goods each.

We finish building our smith. We now can smelt metals into usable forms to shape tools and weapons. Should we turn 5 copper bars into arrowheads for our bowmen? Should we turn 5 copper bars into spearheads for our spearmen? Should we craft 60 bars of bronze out of 20 tin bars and 40 copper bars? We can craft a bronze armor with 4 bronze bars. We can now train swordsmen, one bronze sword can be made out of two bronze bars.

is our entire civ in the one tile marked green rapids ? do we or any other group have a larger than one tile sphere of control? i know we can't claim to control the woods because of the elves.

>>2872607

Instead of distributing it to our population we keep the spices and drugs in storage; they only last so long though so we ought to distribute it eventually else it goes to waste.

We craft 60 bronze bars out of the tin and copper we had in store. It truly is a magnificent alloy, far more strong and durable than both its base metals.

We tend to our crops and have a larger harvest than last year.

We consider researching leather working but we already know how to make leather, that being one of the main ways our population uses to craft their own clothing, the other being small time flax production. We could build a tannery by assigning people to gather the bark and do the necessary tasks needed to tan the leather if we need to produce large amounts of leather for some reason. We'd also need a source of skins to tan since currently our hunting barely fulfills the local needs for leather clothing.
The local woods have plenty of deers and wild boars from which we could harvest pelts were we so bold as to hunt them intensively.

While on the subject of clothing if we so desire we could build a loom and plant some extra flax to start making more linen clothing for our population. It would require an upfront investment but we could probably make a profit from it over time.

Our granary is finished. Our population growth is now increased by +100 instead of by +50 due to our doubled population growth bonus.

We have our smith craft bronze weapons for our full time military units. He spends 25 bronze bars doing that.

We build a tannery by crafting a large number of tanning tubs and getting people to haul inside town the bark we need to tan the leather.

We send 5 bowmen and 2 spearmen along with a group of villagers to form and secure a hunting camp in the nearby woods. We start to get a small amount of hides from our hunting, also meat, sinews, intestines. We turn all the hides into leather and distribute the rest of the goods amongst our population.

Folks from the Dirty Earth Clan show up in our town wanting to sell an alpha bull that it guaranteed to at least double the rate at which our herd grows. They say they're only selling this one because another alpha bull was born in their herd and the two of them kept locking horns and being a general nuisance when left together unchecked.

At first Nope was intending to build his tower by the forest near our town but we insisted with him to build within the area that will be walled off once we finish our walls and he finally agrees; a large shipment of rocks come down the river in boats from the Quiet Tower Kin for the construction of his tower.

We tend to our crops and get a larger harvest than in previous years.

We consider researching writing; only a small fraction of our population is literate but that's enough to consider writing as being within our grasp. We could build schools to improve the literacy of the masses and we could comission diplomats to spy on other tribes and sign agreements.

We tend to our crops as usual. We plant larger fields than last year.

We build a loom and plant the accompanying needed flax fields to give us the necessary plant fiber to weave into cloth. Soon we'll have an ongoing manufacture of linens for clothing, banners and whichever other uses of cloth we can think of.

We consider sending an exploring party towards the south consisting of 2 town guards and 1 bowmen but the townguards absolutely refuse to go out in exploring missions arguing that this is beyond the scope of their function and they're not paid enough to assume this sort of risk.

A roaming band of artists is passing through our town! Malabarists, fire eaters, clowns, giants, dwarves, magicians the whole troupe. They're already peddling their crafts in our streets and getting money from transeunts for their street performances. What should we do about it?

We attempt to charge the troupe a fair tax and they even pay us some tax money when they can't magic away their gains but we're pretty sure they're withholding a bunch of money. Since we didn't comission them a circus performance and are taxing them something fierce they'll probably leave soon seeking some other place where their art is more appreciated.

We hire 10 swordsmen. Since we don't have any more bronze we make their swords out of copper.

We spend time crafting extra trade goods.

We tend to our crops. We're back at our usual size of fields.

We start to build a school to make literacy more widespread around our community. It will take awhile to finish (or we could finish it next turn for 300 trade goods).

The troupe of artists leaves our town towards the south.

Nope the wizard finished the construction of his tower! He takes six young apprentices, most of them from amongst our noble families since those are the ones who can read and whose families can afford the expensive materials needed for learning magic and one a poor orphan boy he claimed had latent magical powers and starts teaching them all magic. Mostly he just makes them do chores for him and have them read on arcane theory, but he also intends on teaching them cantrips and proper magic eventually. He will also have a constant need for exotic components and will be hiring adventurers to go fetch stuff for him.

I kinda want to wet our troops in combat with some raiding. But we could do some trading for bronze to craft better swords for our swordman

Just talking about ideas, before posting what I want us to do.

>>2876132
>Ask him to allow us to station men on top of his tower for it to serve as a watchtower

but make it clear we won't bother him other than that.

>send trading caravan to the quiet tower kin to get copper, tin, bronze, anything better if they have it (iron)
Send along 5 swordsman and 2 bowmen.
>>2876148
i agree with blooding our force but we need to do it when we can afford to lose people. right now our expeditionary force could be 10 spearman 10 bowmen 10 swordsmen thats only 30 guys and it leaves our town in the hands of the town guards and miltia. If we get attacked by trained soldiers we will have taken the core of our force out of the defense.

we need to keep our crops going every spring and fall and we need to keep our trade goods going every winter and summer. Having a strong economy will let us build a strong force and we can shit on the cave people. I don't want to go too early and encourage them to build up defenses before our main attack.

>>2876175
This

Also I read that the move to iron a more economical reason than being stronger. Since iron is found everywhere but it was harder to work with. And it isn't until later on that iron/steel working got better than the Bronze working.

>>2876188
you are right the availability of tin going away was main reason for the switch. one of the things that held it back for a long time was bronze could be made in a pot over a campfire. Iron takes a lot more work and special tools/facilities.
wrought iron is stronger than bronze but not by some huge margins like steel vs bronze. One thing that made steel much better was actually just the weight. to make an effective tool out of bronze or wrought iron it had to be thick and heavy.

We finish our school. Now we'll gradatively increase the literacy of our population.

We ask Nope to allow us to station men on top of his tower for it to serve as a watchtower, making clear we won't bother him other than that. He allows it and we have a ladder installed on his tower for our men to access its top.

We craft more trade goods to increase our wealth.

We send a trading caravan to the Quiet Tower Kin to get metals; we send along 5 swordsmen and 2 bowmen. What are we intending to trade in exchange for the metals and how much of it are we taking to the Quiet Tower Kin?

We consider employing our military to perform fetch quests for Nope the wizard. He says he currently needs cockatrice eggs and can give us instructions on where to find some. Should we accept his fetch quest and if so how many troops should we send looking for it?

Bribing will end up nowhere.
Depending on their ranged capabilities (do they have bows or slings? how many?) either try to run them off killing the leader or just submit goods and high-tail outta there. Then assemble forces and wipe out their den.

>>2877935
Have many of our men are on horses, compare to them?

Do we have armor? And the other 15 bandits are they just sporting knives, spears, swords, or clubs?

I'm trying to think of a game plan, since bandits are not likely to fight to the death for loot. They'll more likely trying to find something easy, and if push comes to shove they can break.

i wish OP would come back

The bandits expertly dodge our swordsmen attacks and give them a serious beating, viciously bashing and stabbing at them until they fall to the ground dead or bleeding to death. They then order our bowmen to lay down their weapons which, outnumbered 10 to 1 they see themselves forced to comply. They take away our swordsmen swords and our bowmen bows.

The bandits then take over our horse pulled carts and travel with them towards the south.

Lacking the trade goods to continue on our trading caravan we return home empty handed and report our losses.

We tend to our crops as usual, having a normal harvest that should last us for the year with plenty to spare.

We consider hiring a group of adventurers to attack the bandits camp.
Without a tavern it is hard to find adventurers so we resort to have a man advertise in the middle of town about the opportunity to get paid to attack the bandit's camp.

We attract the following adventurers:
> Gylas, the Brave. A veteran warrior with a bronze sword. 60 TG
> Geoffrey, the Daft. A young warrior with a copper tipped spear. 40 TG.
> Ancin, the Stinky. A local hobo with a club. 20 TG.
> Wulfa, the Mystic. A wizard apprentice who can cast magic missile. 80 TG
> Hames, the Stout. A warrior with a copper tipped spear. 40 TGs
> Johny, the Steady. A warrior with a bronze plate and a bronze tipped spear. 70 TG

Who should we hire?

> Hames, the Stout. A warrior with a copper tipped spear. 40 TGs
> Johny, the Steady. A warrior with a bronze plate and a bronze tipped spear. 70 TG

All of them, my reasons are the bandits stole 500 trade goods from us. We get them back, and we deal with the bandits at the same time. So we make up the loss of using trade goods for the adventurers

>>2879834

We hire Gylas, Geoffrey, Ancin, Wulfa, Hames and Johny.

They depart towards the south looking for the bandits camp.

After tracking around the forest for a couple days they find marks of cart wheels and start following in that direction.

They find a small wooden fortification near some caves; upon further inspection the place seems deserted though.

They approach the fortification and as they head to the gates Ancin activate a net trap that catches everybody but Gylas; the party is left hanging upside down over a bunch of spikes. Gylas then go about at disarming the trap, getting rid of the spikes before he can cut the rope to let the rest of the party down safely.

But while he's busy disarming the trap a group of about twenty bandits show up weapons in hand and charge towards him; he barely has time to cut the rope to release his fellow adventurers before needing his sword to defend himself.

Geoffrey, Wulfa and Hames get wounded by the falls, and have a hard time getting ride of the spikes that impaled them. Ancin, Gylas and Johny start fighting the bandits but these are fierce hooligans accustomed of taking what they want through force and they put a good fight.

Even as the rest of the party gets somewhat combat ready and join the fray the odds are stacked impossibly against our adventurers.

But winning against impossible odds is what adventurers do; Gylas and Johny put 8 bandits our of combat before being knocked down by blunt trauma themselves; Wulfa brings down three bandits with his spells; Geoffrey and Hames bring down two each; and Ancin gets caught up dueling the bandit's leader.

The five remaining bandits then flee, get into horses already saddled and carrying the most valuable goods with them and ride away.

Upon inspecting the bandit's hideout our adventurers find about 200 worth in trade goods. They then burn the place down and return to town to tell the tale of their adventure.

What do we do about the loot?

Well what the heck, atleast it will show people not to mess with us, bandits have most likely wasted half of our goods
+1

>>2879870
15 bandits and the leader killed.
5 bandits left with 300 of our trade goods.
At least that some pay back for the swordsmen they killed.

>Ancin gets caught up dueling the bandit's leader.
Damn, Ancin, the Stinky hobo. Has been doing some work as a adventurer. Even if he's a hobo.

>>2879870
> Let the adventurers have half of it

>>2879870
Let the adventurers have half of it.

>>2879870
>> Let the adventurers have half of it
Let's also heal them up.

We let the adventurers have half of the loot acquired raiding the bandit's camp.

This.
Can we also boost wall building with 300 tg?

We begin the construction of a tavern! Once it is finished it is sure to draw adventurers from far away lands to come and visit our town, looking for rumours and the oddjob that always seems to find an adventurer when he's hanging around at the local tavern. Our lack of booze will probably be a let down though. We have some spices and drugs that we could sell at our tavern instead but a tavern without booze is almost unheard of. Maybe we could import some booze while we don't start our own local operation?

We start the construction of barracks for our troops, a centralized place for them to train and sleep. When it is finished it should improve the amount of training our troops receive before being let out into the field of battle.

We spend 300 trade goods to speed up a little the construction of our wall.

It's the year 907 and it's Spring.
