Sword Riot Quest

[X] Wait and build your bloodlust, and when it can no longer be contained charge and join the nearest battle
-[X] Beserker
Beserkers can't do stealth (or tactics), so it would be the best to wait and then attack

So, just as a clarification, there is a large camp in the center, and small camps in (basically) every direction around them.

Jumping into a fight in the center camp is the single worst thing you can do in this situation. You would be surrounded on all sides from the start. If we want to win with any degree of certainty, we should attack a smaller camp first. Consider attacking two smaller camps at once depending on the size of them.
 
[X]Attack Eastern Camp, kill most of their camels, only leaving enough for us.

[X] Send Berserkers and Everblockers on the right and left side of the camp. While the enemy is busy charge the middle and join the others when your done with the main base.

[] Pair up with a berserker. Watch their back.
-[] Everblocker
Good plan. I would have voted for it, I think, if I didn't get an idea of my own.
By the way. Why use the iron warriors for this @silentspirals ? Wouldn't the everblockers be better?

@Dark Ness what's our composition? Do we have enough everblockers to cover every berserker? More? Less?

Actually pairing up defender/attacker pairs might be pretty good for most of us. Hopefully we can have one Everblocker or Iron warrior per Berserker or Whirlwind fighter. The sword saints can run around and fill in where needed or do solo missions.

[X] Sneak into the Camps (before the whirlwind fighters attack) and do some sabotage, cut loose the camels, put stones in boots, set fires, etc that will exacerbate the chaos when the attack begins. Then, when the enemy attention is elsewhere, go to the western camp and loot whatever you can and a caravan to move it with.

I am going to have to veto this, you don't have the right clothes to pass for followers and you would have to give up your swords, which you are, very, very, reluctant to do. (You actually sleep with your swords).

This part is possible, but difficult.

So if I instead said:

That would be fine? It's only the disguise thats the issue?

By the way. Something tells me that if someone had voted to do "absolutely NOTHING" we might have had infiltrators (or something like it) now.

Then they can be recollected later by the people who get away. Sure, a large number will be lost, but they probably got surplus camels after that last battle. Plus, a Whirl-wind fighter can slaughter them rather fast.

I'm counting on them being recollected by us. I'm worried that the whirlwind fighters will be too effective in killing them and Dark Ness will end up going "What camels? You slaughtered them all."

Yes, that's fine, but at least one more person needs to vote for it. (This is a riot quest after all).
 
By the way. Why use the iron warriors for this @silentspirals ? Wouldn't the everblockers be better?

The everblockers would be great for defending the berserkers, but they wouldn't be that much use; the beserkers don't need that much defending, the everblockers wouldn't take out many themselves and the berserkers probably won't be canny enough to proactively use the protection granted. Iron warriors can take out enemies more effectively and they can take an accidental hit from their partner. Everblockers are better paired with sword saints, who can adjust their fighting style to take full advantage of their partners' skill.

Since Arkatekt seems to have it covered, I guess I'd better help elsewhere:
