Excellent work on the villager.
Thank you!
Argonor, it looks promising! 
I liked your ideas on the activation and arrival of the raiding forces! Please tell us how it worked out in the game!
AAR from the playtest is up on the blog.

The random arrival worked nicely - but I may have to bolster the ranks of the village defenders a bit, as the relief force is
slow, and if the attackers roll a lot of 6s and 5s on the first 2 turns, the defence may be overwhelmed very fast, as they will have to fight on at least 2 fronts.
