At the grand alliance meeting we have promised to help set up farms around Resting Deer and to teach about herbalism. In exchange the grand alliance will provide a group of volunteers for the battle against the orcs and salt.
[+4 population per turn, volunteers for the battle, need to help the other tribes in the next 12 turns.]
Liririel has made Beren the commander of the tribes warriors and in the weeks that follow Beren works on adapting the tribes tactics to include large groups of archers and a group of spearmen wielding heavy shields. For the fight against the orcs he forms the warriors and volunteers into a single line with own group of hunters supporting them with their bows. The other group will secure the southern side of the line and try to flank the orcs.
[Liririel: Appoint Beren to lead: 88, +2 Leadership xp for Liririel, +5 Leadership xp for Beren]
Adlegron leads our warriors to the north of the valley across a small path in the hills there avoiding the notice of the orcs. Beren is send ahead two hours before the sun will rise with a small group of warriors to take out any orcs between us and their camp and a spots a group of orcish hunters. As most of the hunters are still asleep Beren and the warriors sneak into the camp and kill them before they are awake. With the way cleared Adlegron joins Beren in the woods above the orcs.
Adlegron is leading the hunters trying to flank the orcs but this leaves him out of position when the orc chief joins the battle while a fierce melee start between our warriors and those of the orcs with some of our hunters supporting them with their bows. The orc hunters are taking heavy losses as they are under attack by the warriors from the deer hunters on one side and our hunters on their flank forcing them to defend themselves from attacks from multiple sides.
Adlegron and the orc chieftain meet shortly after that and Adlegron shoots the orc with an arrow but the chief ignores the wound and attacks Adlegron with his club. The two fight for several minutes before Adlegron is stuck on his left arm breaking it. As this fight goes on the orcs push into our lines and our hunters fire arrows into the orcs.
[Adlegron broken arm: -10 to all combat and crafting rolls till turn 12]
The orc hunters launch one desperate last charge at the volunteers as the attacks by our hunters killed most of them. Beren shows why he was chosen as chieftain of the Ox clan when he personally leads them as they push the orcish warriors back. He is now joined by the second group of hunters as few orc hunters that survived scatter the volunteers go to the aid of Adlegron who is struggling against the orcish chief.
[Beren gains: captain: +5 to all leadership rolls, +10 to rolls to recruit him as a hero]
With his arm broken Adlegron falls back to get a better overview of the battle and he watches as our hunters fire wave after wave of arrows into the orcish warriors while a warrior from the deer tribe kills the orcish chieftain.
After that the battle does not last long and a runner is send to Galor to inform him that the way is clear. A warrior from the deer tribe warns against staying long at the beach as the demons attack all that settle there. They propose that any settlement in the area should be at the point where the valley narrows and not any closer to the coast from there. The next morning there are funerals for the 20 warriors of our tribe and 5 volunteers that died in the battle.
[Gained new potential settlement site: the narrows]
[Gained new potential settlement site: the beach]
After hearing about Liririel becoming the chieftain of the stoneshapers he agrees to join her and they salvage what they can from the shipwreck and Galors camp. The others at his camp are planning to move on with some heading to the larger towns up north or into the wilderness to find another way home.

@sunrise, is there a list of possible skills that Galor can learn? The shrine lets us reroll at -40 right? so if I roll a 30 and then the reroll results in a 60, that 60 becomes a 20 right?
[X] [salvage] several bags of wheat and potatoes
+20 to the farming lore roll for us and Resting deer.
Will have rotted away if not picked
Always pick perishables first.
[salvage] The ships bronze anchor
Contains enough bronze for 2 swords giving +10 bonus to all attack and defense rolls
Lost at sea if not picked
This is nice to have but not essential. Plus we could just get Metalworker to mine bronze ourselves
[X] [salvage] An altar to Yavanna
the reroll given by the shrine is 5 higher and +20 to building the shrine
Send to one of the temples in the north if not picked
This is more of a better to have and not need sorta thing

We are already in an alliance and we will likely be consolidating and expanding in the future, not meeting new tribes.
[X] [specialist] A skilled metalworker

Will look for mining sites on his own and join the closest tribe when he does.
This makes the anchor and silverware less valuable the longer the metalworker gets to work.

Has religion I and gives a +5 bonus to the reroll once a shrine has been build.
Will travel the area preaching about the elvish gods.
Those bonuses are adding up.

We already have Beren and Adlegron to be our main combat heroes with Galor as a possible 3rd if we spec him that way. The Deer Warriors getting another hero is fine.
[X] [specialist] A skilled woodworker
Has crafting II and gives +5 to the tribe dice.
Will join Resting Deer if not picked
+5 to all tribe rolls and crafting 2 is really strong as that bonus gets used every time the tribe does an action.

[Galor skill 1] Combat
[Galor skill 2] Administration
We don't have an administration but we can get every other skill. We could have Galor run our 2nd village when there are enough people to set up a mine. For the salvage I ended up picking the Shrine instead of the Priestess as the Priestess won't get any benefit until the shrine is built and while the shrine gets the same bonus but also +20 to progress. I feel the priestess's benefit is too small, it would make much more sense if she gives a +10 instead of a +5 since she is an active practitioner of all of the elven deities instead of just an altar. to a singular deity.

The train skill can be used to train skills heroes do not have yet, it takes 5 xp to get the first rank in a skill.

Military and battle
After the first battle i have decided on making some changes to how battles are run the largest one is that groups and heroes have less health now followed by having separate ranged attack, melee attack and defense strengths.
This will allow a greater variety in enemies and gear and major battles will have a vote listing the enemy groups where the players pick how they deploy the tribes forces.
A groups stats indicate their abilities at battle, a group with +0 to a stat is as good as a group of hunters armed with stone tipped spears wearing light leather armor.
Health: The amount of hits a group or hero can take before they are defeated, for groups each health is 10 men.
Armor: The first hit will reduce a groups armor instead of health
Ranged attack(RA): The ability to attack at ranged.
Melee attack(MA): The ability to attack in melee
Defense(D): Defense against both ranged and melee attacks.
Each group or hero fights with one of the enemies groups of heroes and will get the following bonuses:
Attacking someone with less the 50% of your health +10 bonus to attacks(for example a hero with 8 health vs a group of hunters with 3)
Attacking someone while not under attack +10 bonus to attacks.
Before battle there is a scouting roll by both sides the side that rolls the highest gets a +10 to all rolls in the first round of battle and if the difference is 50 or more it is a +20 bonus
Before battle there is a maneuvering roll by both sides the leadership skill gives a bonus to this roll, the side that rolls the highest gets a +10 to all rolls in the first round of battle and if the difference is 50 or more it is a +20 bonus.
Gear provides bonuses and has requirements to use:
Bows: +10 to ranged attacks, can be used by hunters,warriors and heroes with hunting I or combat I.
Heavy shields: +1 armor can be used by warriors and heroes with combat I.
Some groups are more skilled then hunters due having superior training or leadership
Stoneshaper warriors get +5 to ranged attacks, +15 to melee attacks, +10 to defense and +2 health.
The group lead by Beren gets +5 to ranged attacks, +5 to melee attacks, +5 to defense
This will allow a greater variety in enemies and gear and major battles will have a vote listing the enemy groups where the players pick how they deploy the tribes forces.
A groups stats indicate their abilities at battle, a group with +0 to a stat is as good as a group of hunters armed with stone tipped spears wearing light leather armor.

In the days following the battle Arawen trained several scribes to help run the tribe and when the first reports came back it become clear that there was more potential for trade then first believed. The largest demand is for bows and arrows followed by tools and with the help of our traders we can supply 5 groups. When the volunteers headed home they where giving gifts of bows and tools in thanks for helping fight the orcs.
[Arawen: Train scribes : 75 Arawen +2 lore xp, +20 to writing lore, +5 to the tribe dice +5 to writing lore per turn, +1 Influence]
[Influence represents our ability to make changes to the grand alliance and it spend during meeting and in some diplomatic actions]
Idril the priestess and her older sister Elwing the woodworker have been talking for a while where to go, Idril wanted to explore but Elwing believed they could do more if they stayed at the stoneshapers. They decided to visit Running Deer and build a shrine there and return to the stoneshapers afterwards.
[Idril and Elwing will be back in 6 turns once the shrine at Running Deer is completed]
The defeat of the orcs combined with meeting up with Galor has lead to a large number of new options for the tribe as they bring new ideas, some of the high priority jobs have been completed and more resources are available. These ideas go from new buildings, creating a new settlement, promoting greater corporation within the grand alliance and searching for mining sites.
[multiple new options]

Idril the priestess and her older sister Elwing the woodworker have been talking for a while where to go, Idril wanted to explore but Elwing believed they could do more if they stayed at the stoneshapers. They decided to visit Running Deer and build a shrine there and return to the stoneshapers afterwards.
[Idril and Elwing will be back in 6 turns once the shrine at Running Deer is completed]
The defeat of the orcs combined with meeting up with Galor has lead to a large number of new options for the tribe as they bring new ideas, some of the high priority jobs have been completed and more resources are available. These ideas go from new buildings, creating a new settlement, promoting greater corporation within the grand alliance and searching for mining sites.

The tribes warriors are now based at the narrows from where they control the only way into the western end of the valley. As long as we hold the narrows our lands are save from attacks from the west. During the march there Beren teaches Adlegron more about maneuvering large forces. After the warriors have been deployed Galor creates a new camp for our hunters opening new lands for them and providing another center for our civilization. This causes our tribe to grow even faster then before and a 3th group of hunter militia are formed at the stoneshapers camp
[Adlegron: Deploy the warriors Total: 50, +1 leadership xp, gains Leadership I: +5 to Leadership rolls]
[Galor: Send hunters to the narrows : 47, +1 leadership xp, the narrows can do one action per turn always rolling 5]
[population growth has lead to a 3th group of hunters they live at the stoneshapers camp]
Arawen has tried to set up the tribes first farm despite never having seen a farm helped by the tribes wise woman, they scatter some seeds only for birds to eat them all as soon as they leave. The potatoes do better and soon berries appear on the plants but those sicken all that eat them. Liririel explains that the roots of the potatoes are the part that should be eaten but by that time few are still interested in farming. The scribes do better and most of the leaders are capable of reading their own names by now. With the potters trained the tribe can now store food for longer allowing it to be stored for the winter.
[Arawen: Farming: 11: farming +6 at 26/60, +2 farming xp, writing +5 at 25/50]
[Tribe: Train potters +5 population per turn]Luthien has been looking for copper and iron around our main settlement but has not found any there but with the new camp at the narrows there are new lands to investigate.
[looking for ore: 27, nothing found so far]
Between the houses at the stoneshapers camp there are now several workshops for our toolmakers, boyars and potters providing places for them to gather and store tools while they work. This allows our traders to export more goods to our allies and supply our growing tribe. One of the workshops is used by the traders storing goods to be traded to the other tribes and holding the salt imported from Running Deer before it is spread among the tribe. It is at this workshop that Liririel hears about a request for aid for the salt traders in fighting the wolves in their lands.
[Liririel: Workshops: 77 +3 crafting xp, each group of specialists can supply one more group]
[new action to hunt wolves]
With our tribe growing in size some are revering to Liririel as Queen instead of chieftain this is limited to a small group in the tribe but if Liririel starts to do it herself more might follow. She would not be the first to do so as several of the larger settlments in the north are ruled by Kings and Queens as well.
[new action]
The hunters of the Deer tribe have intercepted a large force of orcs marching on their camp atop a hill along their route. They met the orcs by charging downhill when the orcs where hallway up the hill the fighting is evenly matched between the stronger and more skilled orcs versus the larger number of hunters. Then Haldad arrives with the warriors after marching around the hill and attacks them from behind this leaves the orcs outnumbered and surrounded but they still keep fighting. A hour later the fighting is over and Haldad launches a counterattack deep into the orc held lands around the lake burning the camps of the orcs. Now Haldad attention has turned to securing the area so his rear is secure when he advances towards the lake.
[Deer tribe vs orcs: 89, Haldad 91: Haldad has driven the orcs back and is preparing for the next offensive]
