Playing the game right now and I've postponed going to Stormfist castle until I've upped my stats a bit. Anyhow I was on wandering around the forest trying to find info on what happen to that merchant's cart. I encountered some Orcs which I defeated.
Feeling good about myself I decided to explore the rest of the forest area wiping out orcs along the way. I eventually managed to wipe out most of the orcs in the area of the orc portal all the way west. (mostly).
Thing is this wasn't part of any quest I was asked to undertake and I'm concerned that by doing this I will screw up some quest in the future. For example I did meet some orc who wasn't an orc but a spy who talked about an orc camp he had to tell the commander about. After wiping out most of the orcs and going back to the barracks; this was never even mentioned.
Should I go back to a saved game I have before all this carnage took place; or are the orcs just there to be used as canon fodder to up your stats?
I already did the quests to poison the orc water supply and take out the orc train earlier in the game.
TIA
