Hunting Party is a horde administration building chain in a Total War Saga: Troy, exclusive to Penthesilea's faction. These buildings enable the recruitment of spies.
Description[]
Military raids against enemy settlements present multiple benefits to armies with sufficient mobility. They provide the raiding party with extra resources and slaves, and serve to demoralise the opposing force and cripple their ability to wage war. For many tribal and nomadic peoples, depredation formed a natural extension of hunting, as both rely on speed and surprise to overpower prey. For nomads, they also represented a way to acquire goods that they themselves were not able to produce, such as food products in times of scarcity or crafted items including bronze weapons and armour.
