Scout Settlements

Only wealthy cities are worth taking on their defenders for.

A Germanic noble's main source of wealth was warfare, which allowed him to keep a large retinue. Military success and bountiful raids gave prestige to a leader in a society where all free men were warriors. Riches came to a noble quickly after victories, but a defeat made him disappear even more quickly, and defeat was very likely in the event of an organised Roman punitive expedition. These expeditions deployed scouting parties, a practice which wise Germanic nobles adapted for their own purpose. Using scouts to find rich, easy targets for a raid ensured that the noble wouldn't lose his wealth and retinue, but instead add to them.
