Throne Room Army Joiner

The 'Army Joiner' encounter is the second encounter coded for the throne room, the encounter will always occur unless the player has either told his guards not to let the rabble in or the kingdom is enslaved.

The encounter varies depending on your public opinion as king, if your public opinion is greater than 20 you will get regular encounters, if your public opinion is worse than 20 you will get a mix of bandits for hire and normal troops and finally if your public opinion is lower than 5 you will get nothing but bandits both for hire and for free.

The Bandit hire price varies at between 5 and 34 gold.

If you have a unit for hire, who you try to hire and cannot afford him, you have a 30% chance to lose 1 public opinion. and if you send them to the dungeons there is a 50% chance of losing 1 public opinion.
