Tribute Round

Food Tribute is an outpost visit sent by Shek Kingdom to rob the food supplies of people that settled up in their territory by force. It can trigger as long as the player's base is within 1,500 Meters of a Shek Kingdom owned location. It also requires that the Bugmaster, Holy Lord Phoenix, Bayan, Seto, and Esata the Stone Golem have all not been killed or captured, and that the player is not an ally nor an enemy of the Shek Kingdom.
It will have a 15% chance to trigger each day if within 1,000 meters of a Shek Kingdom owned location, this chance will reduce with any distance farther than that, until it hits 0% chance at 1,500 meters away.
Once triggered the Shek Kingdom will send the campaign to the player's base, this campaign will consist of 0-1 Shek Scouts and 5-8 Shek Warriors, and will be led by an additional Shek Warrior.
Once the campaign arrives, the leader will shout at the player to come talk. If the player ignores the leader, the campaign will leave and the Return For Blood event will be triggered in 12-24 hours.
Once speaking to the leader, there will be a few options. If you accept the tribute demands they will begin taking food from any food storage containers in the base, and Return For Tribute will trigger in 120-250 hours. If you attempt to negotiate, they will insist that they set the terms, refusal at this point will result in them leaving and Return For Blood triggering in 24-30 hours. And finally, if you challenge them they will leave and Return For Blood will trigger in 24-30 hours, in addition you will recieve a +1 relations with the Shek Kingdom.
If the tribute is accepted, each Shek will take roughly 10 items of food.
Like most tax Events, if the campaign is defeated by a third party faction like bandits or wild animals on the way to the player's outpost, it will prevent any future tax visits from the faction until the player's next import. This is due to the long repeat limit timer, and the fact that it doesn't consider being defeated by a third party as the player killing them. This can be exploited by purposefully luring hostiles to the event's forces while they en route to the player's base. Though in the case of the Shek Kingdom here, it is possible to reactivate the tribute events by failing to defeat a Shek Challengers event.

* This event can be cheesable by emptying all storages containing food before they reach the players outpost.
