    Opps, took too long editing, read the rest of the post Mouz.

    Now I know the forces, I would tend towards some action. However, I would not chase MM - that leaves us with too many troops behind us. I think we should attack/bribe the Ri at Desi Muman. That puts us near our base and the forces of MM and Ivar have far to travel. If we end up short of numbers, I am happy to take a role.

    Thanks. I am now more inclinded towards 1A, though we should be aware that MM might be waiting for us. Precautions against ambushes should be taken, as MM has grown experienced in guerilla warfare as wel.

    Ok, well if you pick roles then I will give you all a set of options.

    Since it seems like we only have 4 people the two disloyal Ri can be the same person.

    I'll go with common vote in that; if we do switch to RPG though give Brian to me!

    Hey - I'm game - put me down for Mael Maud - a small pause as I gather my faithful Gallowglasses around me and quietly sip a glass of Guiness.

    I don't know about the role-playing bit, personally. That would certainly complicate things.

    Option 1 is the best, though. I like the idea of 1c, but failing that, 1a is my choice.
