[spoiler=Rolls+Loot]Loot: 5 from the village (Prize cow)   Monastary: 10 loot (Golden Cross, fine cloak)  Battlefield: 3 (Great sword)
3.   What will you do with the town, and the captives?
4.   Will you sacrifice? And if so, who?

Force the monks to kneel and kiss thors hammer, if they refuse to kneel smash there knees (you don't need to walk to read)
As for loot we take the cow to eat at our celebration feat later.
How many men do we have left including the wounded? some will have to stand guard over the prisoners

[chubby2man]

((Me and Sihylde are missing rolls Also yay, we know this area now! Now I assume we're raiding because our homeland is failing in resources somehow :O but that's a post for later!))

   Your thane will expect 1/3 of all the loot you receive, and each warrior under your command will expect at least ˝ a coin as plunder, but 1 coin is considered a good raiding expedition for them. You can split the loot amongst yourselves now, or you can wait till the end of the expedition.

((Much fun fun :3 we get to organize our loot and command structure then \o/))

"I'd believe we'd need to know who to act and when--a Captain is good, but I've seen everyone come up with good ideas at many a time. As for this, we'll spread waves soon enough--even if they didn't send a messenger out, I believe we should hit the town and make a raid like how lightning and thunder come: Fast as the skies above our homes."

Jora abstains from #1 until later, and #3 and #4 entirely (having suggested to leave the captives to their own, and make a [Cunning] roll if ever people decided to RAZE IT ALL).
#2 is voting to quickly raid the town by hitting quickly and instead of facing the garrison head on, delay and block any counterattack by destruction of property for the raiders to loot quickly and uninterrupted.

Yeah, I figured that asking them to surrender, having soundly beaten them, was a pretty sure thing, so no roll needed there haha. Just to clarify, what do you intend to accomplish with a cunning roll when/ if you raze the town? Are you trying to lessen the impact of burning their homes to the ground? Oh, I have an idea for a Dark Bargain for you! Your idea was to tell them that there is a dark spirit there and you are purifying it or something, yes? In exchange for +1 die on all of your team's next rolls, there IS a dark spirit that lurks in this town. This Dark Bargain is yours to decide.

Just updated the character sheet, you have 37 men left. You also have around 10 men guarding the ship half a day away that I haven't counted in the 37 men. I'd think about 1 warrior for every 10 prisioners would be enough, so about 2-3 warriors left to guard them would be plenty.

((Got room for one more character? :O))

Kinda! While I'm focusing the story on 4 protagonists, there is still room for secondary characters. While I won't necessarily be rolling for your character, he (or she) can show up in the story or in battle, and can participate in discussions. He just won't have the spotlight on him or the decision-making power like a main character would. You can still have your character do actions, like helping Jora ask questions, or Sihylde round up priests, or maybe something else like sharing a cask of mead with your men or interrogating an enemy.  If that sounds good to you, feel free to make a character as normal, just add who you'd like to be second in command for!

[SeriousConcentrate]

Spoiler: Decisions, spoiled 'cause OOC (click to show/hide)

1. Einar will volunteer for the role of captain.
2. Raid the nearby village; it shouldn't be too well defended, and even if the spoils are small they should still be sufficient.
3. Raze it all. It was Kejak's last request; we ought to honor it.
4. Einar will sacrifice some footsoldiers to restore his fate points.
Wound. Drop some Fate on it.

WELL make or modify my action to sensing and explaining our actions towards this to protect us AND them, and You have a bargain.

Now to wait for 3 other votes here

Edit: Jora votes for razing, but for the captives to keep them ALL alive (and then perhaps sell them >_>)

(Oh dear, Tar's our dad Tir. XD)

Also, no bargain.

[Taricus]

((And entirely unintentional when I picked the name. I just got it off a list, and in checking the other sheets so I didn't get a duplicate when I found that out XD))

[Tiruin]

(Oh dear, Tar's our dad Tir. XD)

Also, no bargain.

((Oh you. Naaah, I named it after...I found a good site that helped refresh my memory but our dad is named Koll, not Kol. Big difference, especially in naming. :3))

[Lorknis]

Fromund thinks for a moment, before voting this way:

1.   He's fine with supporting Einar as the acting Captain. He makes good decisions and they're good friends
2.   He votes to raid the village to the south since it'd probably be less defended than the important coastal village/monastery.
3.   Burn it all, not only for Kejak, but because there's more money in it that way.
4.   Sacrifice the peasants and capture anyone else.

[Taricus]

((Two L's? That seems like a spelling error Tir.))

[Tiruin]

((Two L's? That seems like a spelling error Tir.))

Not from where I made the name! :3 (Search "-ll" as typed)

Also this is the perfect excuse time to consolidate my messiness.

Jora:
1. Sees others as okay with Einar, and votes for him too--unless anyone else disagrees
2. Wonders if the Town is better than the tiny village, but the tiny village seems okay too given others' votes (she sides with what has more votes out of the 3 other folks)
3. Raze it, but make a Cunning action to explain it away.
++ She agrees to the Dark Bargain (versus SC's No, and Lorknis/Funk's answer)
4. She believes selling EVERYTHING for coin (rather reluctantly when it comes to people) being the best option
...and adds in that a well paid crew works their best out. Pay full price rather than half a coin. Emphasis on selling the monks and filling our hold; setting the rest free (or sacrifice for...filling our fate)

Spoiler: How much would we earn in coin if we sold all captives? (click to show/hide)

There are about 50 prisoners, your ship could take about 25 of them. There are 15 monks, 10 wounded footmen, and 25 villagers. You need to decide what to do with them. A regular captive is usually worth one coin, but a monk can be worth 2 due to their ability to read and write. One who can speak your language is worth far more as an interpreter to the right buyer.

   Your thane will expect 1/3 of all the loot you receive, and each warrior under your command will expect at least ˝ a coin as plunder, but 1 coin is considered a good raiding expedition for them. You can split the loot amongst yourselves now, or you can wait till the end of the expedition.

I'll assume 1/3 of ALL the loot before we do anything about it, so there's around (30+10+25) in coins; 65 coins in full, or 40 coins if we stack our ship to full capacity which...would be what's going on.
The rest, it is assumed, can be set free or...whichever others decide in #4.

Adding other coins now:

After a few hours, the loot is accounted for! 10 coins worth came from the village, in the form of foodstuff and livestock. The prize from the village is an extremely large cow.
   
There were 16 coins worth of loot in the monastery. The prizes here include a golden, ornate cross, and a finely woven black cloak fit for a duke of these southern lands.
   
On the battlefield 3 coins of worth of weapons and armor are picked up. The prize from there is a great sword with golden filigree on its handle, used by the armored swordsman.

Adding 29 coins from misc sources.
And items: Golden Cross (Ornate); -Black Cloak- (Duke level quality); Great Sword (Knight Emblem? // Gold trim)

We're getting 69 coins at best (1/3 is 23), meaning we've got 46 as profit if we consider not selling or doing anything discard-y with the items, and getting all monks//footsoldiers or villagers as prisoners.

We will have 25 villagers or 15 villagers/10 footsoldiers to decide for.

"If the name ends in: '-ll'; the ending will change to '-ls'", and that is what you can see in mine and SC's sheets--best thing is we never collaborated on anything and he popped in with that, down to the right naming.
