+1 to Enemy Forces vs. -5 to Enemy Forces is not that insignificant. Especially when combined with other choices you make during the battle... it may represent the difference between hitting the "29" treshold or not.

Also, do you mean Dusty Horde? Because Iron Cudgel have no effect on BoY if you hired them post-reunion (since you sent them away to guard merchant pass or something like that).

And yup, taking control of the mines will most likely be most profitable in the long run...
