Orica listened to the group's reactions to her suggestions on strategy as a plan began to fall more in to place. There was just one issue, for herself at least, that she needed to address before they put it in to action. She pointed to the entrance to town again.
"This plan is shaping up nicely, but I have a bit of a personal issue with it. As it stands everyone but this man," She motions to Satsume, "Would be participating in one ambush or another. While I am not opposed to ambushes on principle, as they are a way to show tactical strength to use ones forces in such a way to achieve victory, I personally prefer to not be an active participant in them. It is part of my personal code of strength that, unless it is impossible, I do not hide from my enemy the fact that I am preparing to attack them. If I am strong enough to fight them, then I am strong enough to do it head on and not from the shadows."
She turned to look at Satsume. "So, I request that I join you in holding the front gate from out in the open. If we are dedicating to an ambush and a flank attack then one or two would seem roughly the same amount of suspicious."
