I strongly suggest an amphibious landing if we assault that orc fort. The ettins are doing a remarkably good job of defending the approach from the town of Cove.

(There's too many critters. They've upped the spawn to the point that there's several dozen critters at all times. There happens to be a server boundary right before you get into the fort. Crossing that boundary at this point is close to suicidal, because the huge spawn gets stuck up against it. When you cross, the system freezes for awhile and then plops you into the middle of the mess. Going in from the docks avoids this problem and provides a convenient choke point. I have a rune to the area, so we won't have to sail all the way in unless ya just want to.)
