Ask the US border guards trying to patrol the Rio Grande...At the absolute minimum, you'd need two shifts of two guards. That uses up the rest of our "dozen Outland Rangers", meaning there's no more Rangers left to patrol the dangerous area between the swamp and the trade route, or to patro North of the river to catch those bands that do slip through. Never mind the fact that they can't stop any forces that are determined to cross. Are we going to call the Muster for every band of 20 orcs that rafts across the river?Besides, whoever claimed that there weren't any enemies North of the river already. In the original outline we had "yakmen" coming out of the Northern mountains. Those got axed because they're not in the SRD. But I don't think we should assume those areas are 100% safe either...All in all, I think we need to do some serious bookkeeping about how many men are stationed in which area. I think we'll see that we need to make some difficult choices...Ok... truce!Let's let jdavis sort this out. He's probably heard enough arguments on both sides. (Do check out the Gov. Affairs thread as well, j! Half of the discussion is on there...)</blockquote>
