Accept mission.

Visit the nearest Corsican town peacefully, with only a few Housecarls as guards.

Bring some of the gold. Set up shop in a tavern/brothel, and encourage/pay the locals to help us plan and execute a Trojan horse type attack against a walled Sardinian settlement. Us and our Housecarls will hide in wagons, and some local posing as a Lombard merchant will get us into a city or castle. Once night falls, we will pop out of the wagons, kill any guards, seize as many nobles as we can, and carry off as much loot as we can fit in the wagons.

To carry this out, we will need the locals to provide:
-Wagons
-Actors (or actual merchants willing to play along with our scheme for some coin)
-Advice on ideal targets to hit)

"(4)(1) Tod and eight of his housecarl guards sneak into a Sardinian town, establishing a shop within previously abandoned building. The citizens have built a wagon, but unfortunately, it breaks down once Tod and his housecarl hop inside, leaving them (2) slightly wounded."

Spoiler: Current assets (click to show/hide)

Amount of ships: 13 (Every ship can take 80 people aboard, not counting the prisoners.)
Amount of food: 199 (Each 80 men consume 11.2375 units of food per day/turn. In the current case, you have 899 troops, meaning that they should consume 12 units of food. However, I'll round the numbers down in the case of food consumption, with no exceptions to the rules.)
Unit types: 136 atgeir wielders, 255 heavy axemen, 48 housecarls, 30 elite infantry, 247 axe throwers/skirmishers, and 183 archers.
Ducats/Money: 2689.90 (Atgeir wielders/Pikemen-type troops cost 0.5 each, Heavy infantry cost - 0.3, Housecarls/Bodyguards/Elite Infantry - 1.3, Light Infantry/Skirmishers cost - 0.2, and Archers cost 0.15 each. In total, you currently have to pay 273.35 weekly.)
35 Prisoners (Each ship can take 25 prisoners on board. Prisoners can be either ransomed or donated to a local Norse temple for troops, officers, unique items, and even ships.)

Sorry, folks, but the update's delayed until the forums load fast enough. Hopefully you'll understand.

((The forums still load fairly slow at times, but it is better, and so I'm finally updating the game! Yay!))

"(3+1)(4) The Gods suddenly smile upon Tod, and the townsfolk fixes your Trojan wagon and find a reasonably wealthy man to post as a trader. (2) However, looks like the Gods have turned their gaze away from Tod, as the Sardinian town guards issued a demand to the imposter trader to check inside of the wagon. It could've gone smoothly, if not for the one of your housecarls to sneeze at the worst moment possible...

(4 vs 4) You act quickly and slaughter the guards, but some of them have survived and alerted the rest of the town guard. You see one of them running towards the gate tower to lower the gates."

You have 3 turns to escape the town before the gates are closed, and the town guard's moving on to surround you! You'll be contest rolling next turn, regarding navigational skills.
