You just made me happy because they're probably going to conquer Brushcrest eventually, and I'm mad at Brushcrest right now. These are not benevolent overlords.And here I had people saying I'm tempting you all to commit evil.

I would be careful there. Today Brushcrest, tomorrow us. These guys don't look like a bunch that will just let us be.

I don't mind. I'm not anticipating surviving this generation with the coalition army probably up in our home right now, so for now my goal is making things as miserable for Brushcrest as we possibly can.

I mean we only raided Brushcrest from what i know, not the other cities, Makar did that.
So most of coalition doesn't really have a reason to attack us.

Sure they do. Assuming Brushcrest has arranged a defensive alliance with them, the Intrigue Hero could easily convince them it's a perfect time to get rid of a proven threat (us) while we're busy getting slaughtered by an even bigger threat (Makar). Seeing as these villages are likely also victims of raid, it wouldn't be hard at all to convince them to join an army against Greenvalley.

Okay, this has gone on long enough.
No, there is no Confederation army in Greenvalley sacking the everything. You are a second rate threat for Brushcrest. An annoyance, not a mortal threat like the Makarites. They are throwing their everything at the people that actually came close to killing them all in their last war, not the quarrelsome mountain people that come down once in a blue moon to snatch a few workers and then bugger off again.

I am slightly insulted that they aren't seizing the chance to wipe us out, but also relieved.
That said, I still have every intention of burning Great Hearth to the ground.

Fair enough, though I've merely grown tired of the Greenvalley tangent since it made no logical sense for Brushcrest to attack the lesser threat instead of concentrating on the Makar. It does not really matter for the purpose of this vote either way, as the warriors would have returned home after this raid anyway, regardless of outcome.
I'll try to restrain myself a bit more in the future.

I do hope the Valley People can return to a traditinal life of stealing from the unprepared, being belligerent dicks and taking control of the mountain clans.
The clansmen understand civilised concepts like blood oaths, unlike the uncivilised dirt farmers who don't even collect skulls.

He really has us bent over a barrel with this. Either he loses some men and gets an elite commander, or he loses no one and gets the lions share of the loot either way. With everyone being pretty unanimous with us giving up Sparrow I think as a kind of "fuck you" we should have the chosen's army be the bulk of the attacking force, with hopefully the casualties on their side building up so that it not only weakens them but also means that they can't take as much loot. At least in some way make this as pyrrhic as possible so he won't be as smug about the whole thing.

I did try and point out last update that no, no one would actually be at Green Valley, but people just don't listen except to the few people they get into back and forths with. My longer term plan from that post still stands though.

I think you will find no resistance to the part of the plan that is concerned with wiping out Bushcrest with as many clansmen as we can get.
That was already the plan in the last turnvote and unless our army gets seriously gutted in this one we will try again.
We are a stubborn folk, IC and OOC.

You're right, that makes much more logical sense. I guess we were all just swept by by apocalyptic paranoia, where the worse the imagined scenario was, the more likely we thought it was.

That was my read on the situation at least and I do know how toxic this fear can become.
