Actually, False Orders does allow you to force Keepers in Iron to move their relics. So if they have 3 warriors defending a relic, you can use false Orders to move 2 of them out and either take the relic with them or leave it behind. The clarification text in the law created more confusion so they've actually had it removed for the second printing of the law. The reason is that when you do a Force action, you get to make the decisions about how exactly the move is being done as if you were that player so you could force Riverfolk to move alone the river as that's a valid move they could make. If you force somebody to move with the ferry, they draw the card which would be a weird decision but you can do it.

It's very normal for Lord of the Hundreds to dominate early games. This expansion is a culture shock for a lot of tables because you need to be aggressive against both of these factions from the start. Gone are the days of just sitting in your own corner scoring points and ignoring everyone else, the hundreds will build up a huge army and kill you so you need to kill them first. Also, you gotta treat crafting the same way as if the Vagabond were in the game, so don't go crafting swords, hammer or tea until way later on, those points will still be there but every turn the hundreds have tea is way more value for them. Also, make it hard for them to score from oppress. Put warriors in their backline and force them to fight you, wasting their actions just to keep their core scoring engine online. Mobs are powerful but hard to control so just keep farming them for easy points, Hundreds have such bad card draw that they are unlikely to ambush you. Keepers in Iron are very strong but the hardest faction to master by far. Pulling off a 15 point turn is possible but you need to set up a powerful retinue to do it. Once somebody at your table cracks their code, Badgers will demolish the competition and force you to counter them left and right.

Hirelings *could* perhaps change peoples' minds on Root. Having a catch-up mechanic now is huge - one of Root's biggest problems is runaway leaders. They also help make 2p games more feasible, which was another problem that previously required bots.
