Outlaws

Outlaws

It is a mark of troubled times when even captivity cannot stop wicked bandits from forming new groups of outlaws. Travellers tell of fearsome raids in the nearby forests. The local knights cannot deal with this hardened group alone and have requested your assistance. Send your men and make the roads safe again!

Description

Outlaws is a mid-level adventure, but is popular because it has a good reward/losses ratio, and can be completed fairly quickly.

Messages

Success	Those men were stronger than expected and still you managed to break their band into pieces. The roads are safe to travel again and the local knight happily hands over your reward. You`re a shining example to them.
Failure	Was it lack of training or just bad luck? The outlaws have proven too strong for your men, the local knights have been overwhelmed and this region of the land is now feared by all passing travellers.

Sector	Enemy	Attack With	Losses
To get the 2nd camp: attack the leaders camp, you will be distracted and will attack the second camp instead. After defeating the second camp, retreat. This leaves the leaders camp open for a final direct attack. (edit: you can't retreat while being intercepted, so you have to wait until the general is moving toward the leadercamp before you bring up the generals screen) or attack with the <both camps> option and you don't need to retreat.
