[QUOTE="Bagpuss, post: 2017254, member: 3987"] This could be a whole new direction for the campaign if you want to play it. Basically, lead a slave revolt, like Spartacus and the gladiators aginast Rome. When you go to free the slaves, have Bella, bring a cart full of weapons, you are going to have to invest somewhat. Kill only those guards you have to in order to free and arm the slaves then head to the hills. If you manage to over come the guard in time to arm the slaves before the alarm is raised it certainly evens the odds a lot since generally there are always considerably less guards than slaves (otherwise you never make a profit). If thier are 40 slavers that could be considered combatants then they should/would be guarding at least 100 slaves (if not 200 or more), if you can get swords/spears into the hands of even half of them, then you will easily win any battle. (Historical note: Spartacus' revolt began only armed with kitchen ware.) You then use that force to free more slaves from other camps, etc. While hidding out in the hills (like the Taliban) or a forest (if Robin Hood is more your thing). Eventually you can attempt to overthrow the government. If you don't want the campaign to go so far in that direction then just lead the slaves to the border of a strong, slave free nation and then never adventure in the slave nation again. [/QUOTE]
