I believe that, that early in the game, this group should not be there. This is the second time that I've been through this and I have been wiped out 4 times with max troupes and there's stlil like half the group left. I don't know what Atari is trying to do with this one group that can't be avoided, but I know that NWC/3DO would not have done this.

1. Not Atari, but Katauri (they are developers. Atari is only producers)
2. They cannot be avoided??? Did you tried to buy ship and get there from other side (sea)? This game game forces you to "think" not just "i'll kill them all and then move to next location"

3. Key to this game is not money, but tactics
4. etc etc etc... Just try to think a bit when playing
