Personally Guan doesn't get why the Orcs are worth recruiting. We have tribes of them here already, and they weren't strong enough to last without Shatterspine's help anyway. It's a risk with minimal reward, considering our tight time constraints.<br/><br/>The Pirate flotilla puts us on a collision course with some very powerful entities, which we are apparently not equipped to deal with, so that seems out. Item hunting seems okay, but we'll naturally get that from subjugating the Darklands, which is also a chance to build experience and subjugate more people.<br/><br/>Guan will post soon, saying that much.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=309013.msg15019365#msg15019365">Quote from: euanthe on 13-08-2019, 14:52:04</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I'm fine with anything &lt;3<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>We've noticed. :P<br/><br/>Edit: Guan post up.
