Disband hunters to patrol map

[Phallus Erectus]

I have a slew of slave hunters and caravan guards. Can I release them to patrol the map and kill bandits?

 

[Lord Brutus]

No.  You can only use them in your party or as garrison troops in a castle or town.  Any patrols will come from the faction troops of whatever faction you have joined.

 

[Ivan Khan]

You can give them to Manhunter bands if you freed prisoners in a joint battle. Just when you are on page after battle where you can take prisoners and recruit freed troops put them with un recruited troops, Manhunter band should then pick them up.

I did it some years back, worked good until the Manhunters moved off and was killing bandit bands in enemy territory.

In my game i make a patrol from the garrison troops and just use them in that. But i have noticed they seem to have high attrition and your forever adding new slavers to the patrol.
Which is surprising to say the least... especially when the patrol numbers some 80 odd and there taking on parties of about 20-30.
