[X] Aggressive posture

I really wanna save the skin of an appraisal born nobleman with five years of cultivation on us.
 
[X] Defensive posture
The main tactical advantage of this option is that if things go wrong with the Aggressive approach, I get to tell people I told you so. Mostly comes down to how organized an affair this is. If it's just young guys raiding, it probably isn't a feint. If there's a veteran barbarian pulling the strings behind the scenes, then it becomes quite a bit more likely.

When we do go on offense though, I hope Ling Qi is a little bit more imaginative than simply killing the barbarians. Track them down and steal their gliders or something. Doesn't help with the second realm+ nomads, but whatever.

Rude to bully our social lessers, you know. :p

Yup. The 'I told you so' will be nice. However, if the aggressive option just works out I'll be relieved.

The way I see it it's a great way to make contacts among our current peers.

The higher ups are locked down fighting a mountain, and it's hard to hate someone who pulled your ass out of the fire.

This isn't a training mission, after all, this is a live fire situation. I don't see people being mad at us for glory hogging here like they might have on the scouting mission since we're responding to a request for assistance.

I like what it communicates to Zhengui, namely that we trust him.

Although.

Ling Qi,whispering to GX: "Hey, make sure he doesn't burn the village down.

Also LQ, whispering to ZG: "Hey, make sure she doesn't burn the village down.

Showing up with proof of kill for a half dozen nomads would be a pretty nice second impression, I suppose.

This reminds me though. Those other Greens are our scout-force counterparts. They should also have main force muscle. Maybe we'll get to see Shen Hu!
