I suspect that we mostly agree but...
I think that any time two or three warriors go on a mission
(including chasing cattle thieves), it is _unlikely_ that they get
a "small" wyter to take with them.
1 - these are the pumped-up professionals - that's why we do not ask
them to work the farms (except at sometimes at planting and always
at harvest) so they can protect us
2 - the wyter is a valuable resource in its own right
3 - it is expensive in hero points to join more wyters - OK hero
points don't exist and Gloranthans do not know the numbers but
still...
If the whole warband goes (or even half) on a mission, then they will "always" get a wyter.
