Hi zack.
Well war isn't going well, though I've built a couple of cheaper
fortifications which have at least stopped me getting beaten up by trolls
and wandering horsemen and those nasty herrani clan (the gits!).
however my own raides aren't as successfull for some reason, even if I put a
couple of points into war during a ritual, ---- and even with my temple to
humact giving a battle blessing, and my disinclination to go raiding is
getting on my warrior's nerves too. though I've had a couple of cattle
raides and a trading caravan with a friendly clan that have at least kept my
rate of cattle settled over the last five or so years, ---- and exploration
has found some goods and other stuff, as well as some specials that hav gien
horses some of which I've used to repay a favour owed to another clan.
One thing I'm not exactly sure about at the moment is your method for how to
choose other numbers on item sliders than the big ones you get by flicking,
though I've I've found simply double tapping a slider instead of flicking
will alocate a smaller number.
Events wise, I'm never sure what people with high crops or animal skills are
for. The others bargaining, not to mention combat and leadership ave
fairly obvious, but I'm not sure what good skills in animals or plants
gives.
Beware the grue!
Dark.like custom and diplomacy are fairly obvious in their use,

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.

Hi zack.
Well as to how things are going, not as well as they could be sinse I
finished the tutorial, which is either due to me being unfamiliar with
the game, or just bad luck.
Exploration has worked quite well and i've got some handy bennifits from
that, however less good to report on the trading or war fronts, sinse my
people have got into a fued with another clan and we keep getting
attacked. I've beaten off some cattle raides (mostly I think due to
reserving some magic and using it), but I'm not doing half as well with
larger raides, either by our enemies, or wandering hoards of trolls!
I've built a temple to humact, and have his battle blessing, but i think
the main problem is lack of numbers, sinse my weapon thanes keep getting
killed I don't get to increase them. I also don't particularly know at
the moment what is a good force to send against an enemy. I have also
built a temple to the healing goddess which helps reduce the damage at
least, though we've had a few desasters including a plague which haven't
been helpfull.
In other news, we are producing lots of goods, but our outgoing of cows
is quite a lot, and attempting to consolidate matters to increase the
herd hasn't worked thus far, even though I'm using goods to sacrifice and
have got a blessing from the cattle goddess.
We're not in dire straights yet as we still have over 700 cows, but I am
conscious we're using more than we ar producing at the moment.
I attempted to buy a treasure from another clan who we were friends with
which would've sped up the wrate of our children's growth, however I
didn't offer enough, (I offered 90 goods).
In general, it'd be helpfull to know a few basic exchange wrates. how
much are cows and treasures generaly worth in goods, and what is a
reasonable sacrifice?
then again, it was rather late at night when I was playing the game, and
when I read the manual, maybe having a look again with a clearer mind
will help the situation.
Beware the Grue!
