If Mahan Could See Us Now

Reader mode
[x] Gather up some itinerant sailors and;
[x] Begin preparing for a siege - food, medical supplies and so on.
[X] Check the status (and loyalty) of the ships. You don't need a 20cm shell falling on your head for God's sakes!
[X] Ask Vasily to check on Sasha
I'll get on this, it seems reasonable.
 
I don't know, but it's silly if the only thing we can do is, say, "prepare for the siege" and not also, say, politely ask Vasily to check on Sasha which logically should take like 30 seconds of our time and may literally save her life.

Well, in that case

It's time for us to be jobbing, folks.

For some reason I wasn't getting notified of votes in this thread...

Vasily can't check on Sasha. I'm going to veto that write in, as Sasha is outside the port and left behind. The Port is big.
Second, I will take the check on the ships.
Third, you can multi-vote but it will reduce effectiveness in each and increase Stress.

He can't retrace his steps from the point where we are now standing, to the point where we entered, and take a look over the wall to make sure Sasha isn't bleeding out on the cobblestones?
 
Yeah. It's like, if Sasha wandered off, fine, she's at least ambulatory. If she got captured by the revolutionaries, there's nothing we can do about it right now.

I'm mostly worried about the prospect of her having gotten hit by one of those bullets and being seriously injured, because Valentina wouldn't readily forgive herself if Sasha bled out on the cobbles just because she didn't think of checking to see about that.
 
Honestly, I'm just going to say yes to the top three votes because the plan is good, the write-in's are good and they all pass the lower barrier i had in my head for vote success.

@HMS Sophia , may I ask how you'd interpret the current vote? A lot of people voted for one and only one option before multiple options being possible was even considered, and I don't feel like I have a good intuition for how you parse vote tally outcomes.
 
Roll 1d20, 3 times please.

@Simon_Jester I edited my tally to add an explanation of how I parsed it. I hadn't expected multiple votes either, though I should have so I'm rolling with it.
