There is one thing that every army needs, and that is a supply line.

The enemy camp to the west contains a large beast herd, which serves as the yaungol army's main source of food.

Luckily for us, the yaks and mushan beasts of this region are easily scared.

Sneak in, give the beasts a good slap, and watch the results.

The three quests in here (perfect pitch, first assault and this) are truly awful. My warrior had to quaff invisibility potions to move around and my druid, well, he was chased away because there is no way except luck to get a stampede going to confuse the enemy enough to win a fight against more than one enemy, and there are always at least 2-3 of them. And when you finally make it work, some idiot runs by and parks ten aggressive mobs on the quest giver so i have to run away again in cat form...
