Howzit everyone. New guy alert. 

They are absolutely going to be a force. A quick anecdote from my personal viewing of both those  coalitions. I would like to note that they have already had a run in with the Nsemani at the end of July with two of the brothers coming off alot the worse for wear, Casper in particular. 

I was at Satara and viewed all four Shishangaan on the late afternoon of the 20th on H7 relatively close to Nsemani dam. In the next week the confrontation happened leaving two, at least, of the Shish pretty battered on bruised and I then caught up with the two Nsemani males at Girivana waterhole on the morning of my departure from Satara. They were in absolutely fantastic condition, just had a big meal and did not have any real noticeable indications of being in a fight. They are brutes in their prime and even the 'smaller' Nsemani is a tank. 

The Shishangaan have definetly made the immediate area around Satara their own so that's not to say they won't attempt to expand west at some point but having had a beat down put on them fairly recently I suspect any incursions and attempt to expand will initially happen further to the north and east.
