To the 6 guys that were at our place and ran away from 4

[Ozzy124]

you da real mvp, get off my lawn if youre gonna fucking run away from our farmers

[NaoWhut]

They could have been baiting you into
a larger group, that's always been the
common strategy. If they were running
away with that many, chances are they
had at least that many waiting to jump
out at you.

It's a coward's tactic, but don't chase
them too far.

They literally camped at our gate, and when we chased them with 2 farmers and 2 main characters they just ran away to boats & ported to HF.

Ainran's bait

Yep, for sure that's an Ainran gank, this is how they get you, they bait you like this. Don't fall for it, they are out there, lurking in the shadows watching, waiting. Stay inside your walls guys, they are everywhere.

[NaoWhut]

Ainran is inside your walls though, they
have spies in every village. Be careful
what you say... we're listening.

I disagree on it being cowardice. It is a solid tactic against pride. Much how the Mongols would fix the enemy into horrible ground, encircle them, and destroy them. Or how the English bowmen taunted the French knights into a charge.

We persuaded ourselves that the sight of so many princes would strike terror into the enemy, and that to win the day we had to do nothing but charge quickly and boldly; our eternal dishonor. If it is a consolation for men of honor to think they have been beaten by adversaries of noble origin -- it is a double shame to be defeated by unworthy and vile Englishmen. - Sir Guillebert de Lannoy, Battle of Agincourt, 1415.

Likewise, if ever you find the initiative merely handed to you, it is almost a certainty to be a ploy. But if you have won the initiative by force and gain, then the push is demanded.
