"Swap one of those squads of axemen for a squad of swordsmen, I think, but I reckon I can handle that."

[Dracos]

"No.  But if you want to switch a squad of archers with it I'm fine with it."

Dracos

[Rezantis]

"I'm considering.  What do we have in the way of combustibles, by the way?"

[Dracos]

"As far as I have been informed, we don't."

Dracos

[Rezantis]

"Hm. What do we use for torches and stuff, then? Should we be asking Liandral? I mainly ask just because setting things on fire is always an awesome method of sabotage, and anything to speed that up is good.."

[Brian]

"Pitch," Liandral answers, frowning.  "Unfortunately, we've no free pitch ... and while fire is good, smoke is a beacon visible from miles away."

[Rezantis]

"Mm, but if we do end up sneaking in and breaking things, the noise will be a beacon from imles away too. And at night, it isn't such a problem.  I guess we'll just make sure everyone has tinder . . . and a torch, just in case."

Rez considers.

"Roughly what direction are you planning on heading in, Drac?  We'll probably just come back here and follow the army's tracks, but . . .

[Dracos]

"North.  Along the glacier.  Hopefully we'll catch them in a pincher strike and harass or destroy them on their way down."

Dracos

[Rezantis]

Rez considers.

"I need to pick up a bow, come to think of it.  But yes, anything else I'm forgetting?"

[Dracos]

"Hmm...not that I can think of."

Dracos

[Brian]

"The minions of the Dreadmarch can see smoke at night as clearly as we can in the day," Liandral warns.  "Spare arms are in that wagon," he adds, pointing to one of the supply wagons that Farwell left you.

[Rezantis]

Rez blinks.

"This might be a silly question, but can they see -everything- as well at night as we can during the day?"

[Brian]

"Yes," Liandral says, shrugging.

[Dracos]

"I take it their not crippled by daytime at all.  Otherwise this would be a rather silly fight."

Dracos

[Rezantis]

Rez sighs, then shrugs.  "Drac, swap those swordsmen for archers again.  And that does change things. And not necessarily, Drac."

He cocks his head, waiting for Liandral's answer to Drac's question.
