Caravan Blues
« on: November 18, 2018, 11:53:46 PM »
Mission Brief:

Recently, a cluster of villages southwest of Vale have reported a heavy increase in bandit activity.  Caravans loaded with essential goods have been raided, depriving villages of what they to need to survive.  This increase in criminal activity has also been correlated to an increase in Grimm activity. 

The objective is to escort a caravan to its destination while gathering clues as to the origin of these bandits.  Once the caravan has successfully arrived, track down and apprehend the bandits, while doing the utmost to cull the local Grimm population.

WARNING:  Reports indicate these criminals are organized, and have shown the capability to perform fairly sophisticated operations.  Be prepared for multi-staged ambushes.



This is mostly an interest gauging thread that may double as a signup if enough people volunteer.  This mission will probably take a few in-universe days, and there will be few opportunities to restock on dust, so resource management will be important.  You'll be dealing with low- to medium-level Grimm and generic bandits for the most part.

I'm interested too. I'll probably use Leona or maybe my new guy (Attom Goldwyn) if he gets accepted in time.
