As a bunch of looters tried to scare me off by threatening me with their hidden friends (spoiler alert, it didn't work), it occurred to me what if there were actually were extra looters hiding that my scout didn't see and laid an ambush?
When you spot other parties on the map the numbers and composition (infantry, archers, cavalry) are quite exact. Maybe Calradia has drones and satellite imagery, or maybe it might be better if the estimate was a bit rougher and improved with scouting, and there could be critical fails or something that allow you to get jumped (or jump) parties.
Apologies if this has previously been suggested, but I don't recall if it was.
