Hi Dark, Glad to know things are still going, at least. Generally, cows and goods are equivalent, although obviously you can stand to give up more of a latter than the former. Treasures very wildly in price, although 60 to 90 goods is typical. There is sadly no real way to judge how much they will cost beforehand, though if you have a good trader on the mission they will try and bargain for you. As far as raiding enemy tulas, I aim for a minimum of 15 thanes or so. Any less than that and I'm likely to be outnumbered. Later in the game, your enemies will also increase their defender counts, so be aware of that. Hope this helps, Zack. On Nov 18, 2012, at 7:58 AM, dark <[email protected]> wrote:
