[QUOTE="NewJeffCT, post: 1667694, member: 10784"] Good thought, but perhaps the higher tech level society, with their conquistadors, has already sent word back to the main empire that there may be trouble and request their Emperor/Empress send some more elite forces - be they a group of sharpshooting rangers, some demon-summonging mages, and/or dark clerics, elite blackguard types and just more troops in general. So, it could be a race against time as the PCs & the rebels rush to at least establish a defensible area before the elites arrive. Another thought I had is perhaps the Conquistadors are generally good, but the leader of this expedition is: (a) just plain ruthless & greedy, meaning the PCs need to get evidence back to the goodly Emperor/Empress (b) was good, but was corrupted by his/her fiendish aide (a la Wormtongue) on the voyage over (c) bitter at having been given such a remote assignment so far from his/her true love and has been taking it out on the natives.
