A general rule of thumb is try to attack using 2 to 1 odds vs a PC. More vs a capital.

Likely if you attacked the village you would take it especially if you have a wizard wizard with presence a level 3 spell. But it would cost you as it is a close fight (maybe loose 1 full brigade). Being tolerant you need 2.5 x the PC value to be able to use a 170 order plus being lead by a general. If you have a p3 it would allow you to multiple your group strength by 1.9 to see if your strong enough to try and use a 171 spell. Would likely work I think. But this is your 2nd GN and not likely they have the wizard power to do that yet. So another option is to siege order 190. This would take three turns to get the PC but only requires you be bigger than the PC combat value. Or send an Emmy to the village and take it next turn.

(GN) so parlay won't work? I may just lay siege then as it is outside my main region and won't be important till I start moving on second region.

You can run the numbers. But basically you need 2.5 x in tolerant. If you raise yourself to friendly which you may plan to do soon anyway. Then you only need to be 1.5x. Note you do need a general or better in the group

I guess a another option would be to have an agent sabotage the defenses.

(GN) Just to double check... laying siege won't hurt my standing in the region will it? I was worried that hostile action might affect my reputation with the region.

Siege is fine. If you plunder 160 then there is a chance.

(GN) Well, so... two turns down.

I think I have found enough PC's to flip the region. Feeling a lot more confident on my understanding of the commands and the timing. Could use more gold though. Ha!

I will be investigating an unusual encounter this turn.
Hopefully taking the City.
Starting another rebellion.
And leveling up another Wizard to lvl 2 so I can get that second Gnome Ore Spell cranking.

That's where I am at.

(GN) Timing question... So, I have a group three squares out of a city. There are two emmies in the city.

#320 - rebel
#330 - usurp
#720 - group move into city
#799 - Wizard of group study to next level

That will work, right?

Yes, if you gain control of the PC.
