My last couple of runs I’ve won basically every fight once I’ve gotten a heroic combat / renowned leadership character even while outnumbered and those stats are not that hard to achieve once you know how. Well, heroic combat will do that. http://www.princeofsartar.com/comic/20-the-goddess-and-the-cook/

Hunt them on your own. If we insisted, they replied, they would not say no.  Sent 5 and 5 on the theory that our warleader is pretty great and we don't want to LOSE the fight, especially when he's leading it. I failed to photograph the event text page and didn't realize until it was too late. Synopsis: We failed to find the bandits and the Burnpeaks no longer fear us. Endarei 13 Late Earth Before we have a vote, let's flip through the actual tabs.  The Clan tab gives you some basic information about your clan and lets you reorganize your ring and do your annual ventures. If you have lots of people sick or lots of people wounded the UI will let you know in the notifications on the left, but you might still want to glance at the numbers. Also, clan mood.  The Magic tab lets you access your god sacrifices and spirits, and review your Sacred Time allocation (for things like, say, "I last played this game last Tuesday but was planning to launch a Gods War Ritual).  On the Map tab you can view the surprisingly large map (note that you can't explore all the way to the edge on the outset, you have to explore partway there first) and send out the four kinds of expedition. Exploration will be used way, way more, especially in the early game, but none of them are bereft of value. Not even Forage, which can generate a season or even two of food with some luck.  The Relations tab is the other map-related tab, where you can see the other clans whose location you have discovered, and their approximate relations with you. Light purple > dark purple > pinkish > red for feud. This can be further influenced by favors, fear/mock, like/hate, and possibly other minor factors. From here we send out emissaries to request the repayment of favors / give gifts / propose alliances / demand tribute / resolve feuds.  The war tab summarizes the important non-blessing things about our combat readiness. We can fortify our  The wealth tab is my favorite. It covers our important counts of resources. A reasonable minimum is 1 herd-unit (  The lore tab lists all the myths we know exist, and annotates the ones we know. It also gives us some supplementary information. Not all the myths we know the details of can be used for -- It is now Late Earth Season of Endarei's thirteenth year of chieftainship, and our second in the valley. Dark Season comes next, so we'll basically be locked in our clan lands for two turns. Sending a long expedition out in Late Earth doesn't seem to cause too much trouble, even though they'd be traveling / returning in Dark. We have 1 magic in Exploring and 1 in Diplomacy, and a good exploration omen. Some of the below options may lead to minivotes - where to send a long expedition, who to trade with, that sort of thing. Clan Priority Vote - Keep exploring the clan lands. - Send a longer expedition. - Send a caravan for a one-off trade. - Send a caravan to establish routes. - Activate our Spider or Raven spirit. Spider reduces disorder, Raven improves our raiders' ability to sneak or steals from another clan. - Sacrifice for mysteries. We're still missing a few food blessings, all our healing blessings, all non-Protection combat blessings, Zarlen's exploration blessings, and various sundries. I am deliberately leaving a few options off that are good ideas to do during Dark Season. I am putting mysteries / spirits / local exploration up because the first two are somewhat season-agnostic and the third is still easier in Earth than in Dark.

We definitely should have gone with the Burnpeaks.  And we definitely should establish a trade route before Dark Season sets in.

We should raid the Burnpeaks next chance we get, and kill as many as possible, cattle be damned. They should know they don't deserve existence, what with not being one of Us (besides, their cattle will be easy to take when every last one of them are dead). We should also explore, find more sniveling animals that think themselves people (and stranger things) to kill.

Normally I'd say wait until dark season but seeing as we have only 8 swords we're going to need to recruit as many as we can at once several times so more swords.

While I'm definitely not saying the write-in is wrong, we could only send 5 swords max - we had 3 who didn't attend. (if I could have sent 8 swords and 2 bows that would have been the choice)

longer expedition! I recommend sending very old people out for a chance to get a younger representative. It’s dangerous out there, so we may as well risk with the disposable.

I'm sure you're aware of this but on those choices that involve hunting something down sending less can actually be better anyway, on the logic they'll make less noise I guess, as can sending a war leader who worships the hunting god. Not sure if it would've mattered there though.

We'll have a minivote on sensible directions ie directions that don't involve crossing a major river if exploring wins, but there's conveniently a map in the update so you can vote for it preemptively if you want.
