I. Problem
Robin Hood’s band is facing a lot of problems regarding the movement of his campaign, outlook of his people, and the new ways of the Sheriff. Robin Hood needs to access every aspect wherein he can develop a plan to arrange the band and lead the campaign properly.
Robin Hood’s campaign started to be a one man team. He believed that if he would be able to encourage people to join him, it would be easier for him to revolt against the Sheriff.

Discipline is running low on which caused these men to play around during raids.
The Sheriff was able to increase his range of power by being funded by Prince John which is a big threat to Robin Hood’s band. The Sheriff is becoming stronger and he is beginning to turn tables against the band.
