However, here are some ideas that may help:
- Although the loss of magic is annoying, it is no
disaster to have a chief that is not a devotee of your
main god(dess), so reorganizing to put your highest
leadership personality on the ring may help.
- If you are being raided so much, I wonder if you
have multiple feuds going? The Challana Arroy "peace
bomb" (heroquest to improve relations with your
neigbors) can improve that situation quickly. If you
have a Challana Arroy initiate on the ring, assign
magic to healing and don't assign magic to war, then
make sacrifices to the goddess, then do the quest,
your odds of success should be decent.
- If you are being raided a lot and having trouble
with food, make sure to have Maran Gor's Earthblood
blessing running!
- Although it can be harder to complete, Elmal's
heroquest to gain Elmal's aid when you are attacked
could be spectacularly helpful for you. Not only does
it make your defenders much tougher, as a generic
benefit it brings you horses if your herds are too
low.
- Finally, don't forget that your war magic becomes
ineffective if you don't go on raids once in a while
(not cattle raids, real raids). If your forces are
weak, you can still raid, just choose survive and
evade as your options.
Or, as Jeff said, sometimes it is best to start over. If that is your choice, might as well go out with a bang. Try constantly raiding the ducks, then ignore the warning from the beastfolk. The result is impressive :)
