An Orcish Assault
[whu]A classic frontal assault is difficult and time consuming. I will send one or two units west to collect villages, and Delenia (Delly) south along the east edge. Send a couple other units, perhaps rogues, west then south going around the Orc forces to eventually meet Delly at the Orc keep for some glorious backstabbing. While keeping Efraim protected, allow the orcs to enter the city, at which point Lord Redain's troops will become active.
[whu]Pick up items and store them or give them to your leaders, your troops are too junior at this point and if you give them items and they die the items are lost.
[whu]Steal all your allies villages, he doesn't need them.
[whu]If you recruit any loyal units, they should probably hide behind the lines for future service.
