We can exploit our info about the Scarlet Brotherhood's fortifications along the coast to storm one of the forts, prevent the garrison from escaping, and use it for a base while we venture inland. Not sure if we have info about garrison size and possible patrols. It is reasonable to assume that the long distance of these forts from the S.B.'s homeland would reduce their ability to react to our actions in a timely manner. When we leave, we can stage false evidence regarding the fate of the fort so they don't have a rational response.

While it might be fun to take a fort away from the brotherhood as suggested there are issue against it as well.

1. the fucking tough, 5 monks were enough to keep us busy and kill some of our crew, we know how many people are in these forts but I don't think we know how many are normal warriors and how many are mages or monks, plus we won't have our crew members to distract them so it will likely be 3 or 4 or 5:1 of combatants much nearer our equal than those orcish boat crews.

2. who is to hold the fort while we go inland?

3. what's the chances of killing them all and one not getting over the wall to warn the other forts? If we tip them off we are here we can expect them to be looking for our ship, question the natives with extreme prejudice, and they will be between us and our retreat after we head inland to the lake.

If we do take action it must be on the way out not the way in to avoid the above issues.

Johathan, plz give us the troop distributions for the forts, and draw us a nice scanable map with the forts marked.

If we find a patrol I'm more than willing to kill it off but I think we would be over extended to attack a fort at this time,

I do think it would be wise to cultivate several native groups, arm/train and assist them in their resistence to the brotherhood for a later move. Perhaps we can show them they have common purpose with their neighbours and direct their inter tribal aggression towards a better out come

I would also suggest we always carry bits of orc regalia taken from the ship we captured, when ever we kill brotherhood types it would be worth our while to leave orc arrows, broken armour, etc. at the scene just to increase tentions between our two potential enemies, We should not wear any identifying regalia of our own and someone who wants to can use my hat of disguise to adopt orcish visage and let themselves be occasionaly seen by scouts and patrols

Good points. We need more info. I like the idea about leaving evidence of orcs behind.

Jonathan, do you have any maps, etc. relating to the forts (i.e., stuff we would know based on the captured documents)?
