If only we had known, am I right, guys?" Lionheart saying it would take a while to get a raiding party together was about buying time for Salem, but even after that Qrow noted they would need some strong fighters on their side. Whatever excuses he offerred, it isn't wrong that they would need a large and capable party if they want any chance of getting Vernal back alive without a very difficult fight.
