Gunnulf is back! He's not just the best unit in Hakon's caravan, he's here to show Rook what he's been missing. We won't see anyone else from Hakon's caravan until the literal last map of the game, so this developer favoritism is appreciated.

This team of Rook/Iver/Krumr/Gunnulf/Ekkill/Eyvind will be the standard setup for the rest of the game. Rook with the extra break item sets things up, the squad of high stat guys knocks them down, Eyvind heals any scratches. Simple, effective, more than enough. I have no issues chasing down the second wave of enemies here- but just as I've got a party strong enough to do them, the game runs out of Wars! This is the last one in Banner Saga 1 and the entire system is reworked in the sequels. Don't worry, the new implementations are similarly weird and obtuse.
