So we already know they're west of town. Let's hire the limpy old dude to guide us to where his caravan got hit and then send him home, or failing that at least have him give us some directions. Go with our 5 best scouts to go scope it out.

Are we just supposed to take out the large group, or eliminate ALL bandit activity around the city?

[Worldmaster27]

I think we just need to take out as many as we feel like within a month's time.

Hm..

*looks back at turn*

The client said he wants them "cleared out," so yeah that sounds about right. ..But it seems unfair. We get 50 in advance and 30 at the conclusion. No mention of bonus for kills. Also "cleared out" is quite vague so it'd be easy for him to weasel his way out of paying the 30, or try to reduce the payout.

Is 80 crowns a lot? We blew 10 just getting the old dude to talk.

No i don't think it is a lot. If he tries to pay less then we just do this the crusader kings 2 way rebel then shoot him in the head with crossbow.

 The pay isn't as important as getting a good reputation at is point in time, but we should still keep an eye on it I suppose.

  So 55 per month plus 10= 65 in expenses so far...and we haven't even reached the end of the month yet! We may suffer a few casualties, so that may lower the amount we have to pay the men, but the men's pay alone is still more then the payment for taking the job- we'd have to finish the job to even break even, assuming that the old dude forces us to pay him to guide the way.

  And that's assuming we don't incur more expenses...hmmm.

  Ninja'd: So complete the job, and if he doesn't pay take over? That could dig an even bigger hole, as we'd be forced to wipe out the bandits to make a profit. And any allies the Duke had may attempt to come after us, forcing us to do the very thing the bandits did to survive.

  If it works, however, the place could possibly line our pockets with a steady source of income, provide a place to supply from, and a place to fall back to if things turn against us. And we may just get a good reputation with the people of this by attempting to deal fairly with the Duke, then dealing fairly with the common folk- support of the locals is never a bad thing to have.

  So it has it's drawbacks, but it also stands to give us great rewards if we happen to succeed.

[Prophet]

I did't mean take over just show that we don't take shit from the nobles. Of course we could try and take over if that's what you guys want to do i'm fine either way.

Nah, let's not take anyplace over.

There's a large amount of disparity between our general expenses and how much cash this job is worth. Killing bandits is risky for us. Let's just ask for more money, or negotiate a kill bonus per dead bandit.

[Prophet]

I don't think he will go for it he is going bankrupt because of the bandits.

[Parsely]

Well then he's got a lot to lose. He'll have no other choice, but we won't be dicks and make it an ultimatum. We'll explain that it's because we really need the cash, that we'll be making no profit, and that we're likely to have casualties after this.

[Prophet]

If the others think he'll go for it sure. If he doesn't then we will just wait until we die and haunt him for the rest of eternity.

[3man75]

Or team up with the bandits to make money via caravan raiding.

Medieval era means no spy drones looking for our DNA. So long as we leave no witness and don't boast were good. But that's if the duke is too cheap.

If to he is to cheap to pay he pays in another way i like it +1

+1 I think he'll accept; especially since we're good trackers and foresters. We have the best chance of eliminating some bandits, far better than run-of-the-mill sword and spearmen.

3man i think we are outnumbered here what do we do! I don't want to die i'm to handsome and young to die why world why !!!!!
