The only concern I have about going to the frozen sea is this: the itinerary we left with... Someone... Said we were going to be coming back by the high pass. Instead, what is possibly the most paranoid fort in kislev is going to see 5 metal behemoths rolling out of the chaos wastes.
I don't like the odds on their reaction.
But I like the odds on that corner even less.

And what is said post going to do about us, our tanks and our small army of mages and our dragon?
With Ljiljana with us I'm not worried.
Did we not hammer the 'social Belegar' button so much the QM disabled it? Perhaps that is why he trusts us enough to confide things like 'I believe the slayer cult is a waste' in us.

It's a social action. Wrong category of actions to be affected by the penalty.

We are most of the way to formalising RoW -it already is in our spell book as Invented- but Celestials is out of our hands. If they want it they can do it.

A prime part of it's control mechanism is ulgus ability to detect disruption, so I don't think that's really viable
I don't think they can. RoW works by the simple virtue of using somersetting that already clings to ground level, to use Azyr for it you would have to make a sort of arc of clouds all the way up to where Azyr dominates and that sounds less like low Battle Magic and more like Cataclysm magic.
Oh hey, I was going through the list of our academic discoveries, and I noticed we got co-author credit on a paper about the Salamanders:
That's nice.
Also we should totally co-author something with Qrech. Maybe 'The Black Market: Observations of the Chaos Dwarf Stronghold of Uzkulak, by L.M Grey (Grey), Dr. Quirin Waramunt (U. Altdorf)'?
Best part is, everybody will assume it's the other L.M Grey who has a reputation for tweaking the noses of the chaos dwarfs, not us.
(Also, I know he's not a doctor yet. Let me dream.)

Well, after reading the update I was preparing my argument why we should take the north route, expecting having to convince a lot of people whod take the southern one because of a (in my opinion) misguided wish to go back to Uzkulak. Lo and behold, the thread already overwhelmingly favors the northern route and all my wellcrafted arguments arent needed 
.
Seems I underestimated either the (totally justified) fear of the deathcorner or the desire for a presumably safer route.

Fair. In my defence, it has been almost 20 updates of the Dum expedition
. All the same, i want to visit it.
So we made a deal to keep High Pass clear of snow, and now we're coming back through Black Blood Pass... which will not be clear of snow. Can the steam wagons make it through?

if: Specific-Futuretell that reaction force in an area will be distributed oddly a for a given moment of time = yes
then
cast skywalk on.
would work for threads on a tank, but not for a cavalry charge though, unless the ground was not on an incline despite having many sharp dips and such in it.

I was under the impression that Wulfrik was doing his thing for a long time. If he only shows up in 2519 that gives him only a few years before everything goes to shit iirc.

I think an Azyr version would be possible, but it'd be more 'Cloud Bridge' than 'Fog Path'- used for crossing gaps rather than easing travel. Likely to have a much higher power requirement (due to there being little way to make it as efficient as fog path, it has to support everything itself the entire way- though perhaps with Azyr you could work a predictive system into it so it only exists where needed) offset by being used for a much shorter period of time (you just have to get across the gap).
It would also be completely different on a metaphysical level due to the 'blurring of possible terrain' that RoW works on not being possible for Azyr.
But it would look similar, and someone could still get inspiration for such a spell by seeing RoW.
And that'd be about as close as you could get, I think. None of the other winds seem terribly suited for this sort of thing. Which is probably common at the Battle Magic level, where you're so steeped in the particularities of your wind that adaptation to another is near impossible.
