Vidar goes with the wind. JK, I know I am just jumping back into things and was not trying to steam roll anybody's plans. Vidar is just head-strong and blunt. I thought the DM was steering us in any of those directions at one point or another, kobolds, shrine, tatzulwyrm, etc.. I probably read that all wrong though. I was trying to go with the flow and confused it all up. Sorry.
Good points Nex, I never thought about this world in an open ended way. Maybe I got caught up thinking in linear story-telling terms.
My thoughts for the cause. We've debated in game, like normal confused folk, now the leader, cough Nexendia cough, will weigh the options and decide. If we scout we should scout with a purpose. We could try to find the bandits and learn their numbers and strengths. Find the path they are taking and lay obstacles to slow them or divert them. Silent image comes to mind to lure them off track... "Hey guys look at that wagon full of gold and beautiful naked people! C'mon lets go!" Then they fall into a pit of snakes
I've never actually used a forced march in any game but this might be a situation worth considering it.
