You may have a point, but I think that ship has sailed.
However, the Citadel also is further from civilian beds than the Lhune depths, which was also part of Belegars instruction.

I have changed the plan: Max is now writing up a Waaagh research paper, FYI.
[X] Plan Citadel Focus
Nobody is poking at the coin or learning new spells, sadly, but we definitely owe Ranald that shrine.

There's a timeline in the appendix.
I'd definitely go with the 8th edition army book. Though Stone and Steel was written in '02, it's part of WFRP 1st edition which dates back to '86 and a lot of it doesn't fit well with lore from this side of 6th edition. But it's still the best source for day-to-day Dwarven life - Grudgelore is a lot more recent, but mostly focuses on specific wars and battles with tiny cultural snippets and factoids jammed in almost at random.

Honestly my biggest complaint with poking the skaven is that it could add even more stuff to our backlog. We are so swamped with good choices that adding even more just seems too much.
I'm ok with under-citadel spiders as long as we don't soften up Mors too much too soon.
These are good points, we really shouldn't be starting up a new front until we've scouted all the competition and decided on a proper way forward. Going around haphazardly starting fights sounds like a bad idea. Best to wait until Belegar has decided where he wants to fight and conquer rather than potentially trapping him in a fight he doesn't want.
Also preventing the spiders from being able to make deals with anyone else is just good sense. Once they're firmly committed then maybe it will be a good idea but right now we can get a translation item for free so there's no need to teach them how to write.

I view it more like if Belegars job for us this turn was to spend 3 actions in the college studying. Sure it's one less action for personal use like snake juice research but I wouldn't be to hung up on that.

And now you know what it's like to be a Warhammer Dwarf, I guess.

@veekie I've got a question: Why use the Gambler here instead of Night Prowler?
Wouldn't it make more sense to go for guaranteed stealth sneaking about in skaven settlements rather than a pair of roll bonuses?

It's not guaranteed stealth. They can smell us, and it doesn't affect Johann.

Only takes 1 action, the trick is managing to fit it in.
Seventeen and I both have plans up for giving Ranald his shrine, I dunno who else does.

This is indeed the reason im approval voting plan neptune. I prefer Citadel focus because it waits for the lab tower, but my ideal result is to just let Johann deal with the skaven on his own.

Voting this for now. Establishing a working relationship with Johann is a good idea and while sabotaging Mors may not be a good idea, Johann's action specifies investigation and our intent is to work with him. I doubt the GM will punish us for a bad word choice.
Focusing on 'poking' is just repeating the same sort of baseless overthinking that came up when we were voting to reforge the armor or similar previous votes. Mathilde is not stupid and can take her own precautions. Boney can also filter our intent.

Is that us dictating, Max writing, because it'd have to specify that.
Why the shrine for the bonus, I'm curious.
Speaking of me and my plan, I removed the overwork action. Didn't seem worth it. I'm sure my three voters will be very upset, but it had to be done.

... Why would smell matter? It didn't matter scouting Mors before, and we weren't even using the coin on Night Prowler.
I don't understand where else we'd be finding their technology. Broken parts lying around looted battlefields?

Not a bad plan. I'd still rather assert employer-employee authority over Johann properly.
I'm not convinced we're the person to write the paper, any paper, rather than let our amanuensis Max do the miserable slog to much more readable results.
