[X] Plan The Colored Eagles of Paris
-[X]Humanly: It would be a waste to treat them inhumanly. They are men, and they deserve to be treated as men. It may cause a strain on your supply lines, but the war seems to be over to you
-[X]Yes: You will send them to Paris to be prisoners there.
-[X]Confiscate it: All the Weapons captured in battle will be confiscated and used by the Army of Italy… at least it solves the supply problems
-[X]Send them To Paris: If the Regiments wished to have their standards and colors back, they would have their government return them.
-[X]Yes (This unlocks a new action with Thérèse)

    -[X]As Expected: They are prisoners of war. They will be treated as expected with the supplies you have. Some may starve… some may die, but you will not ignore them, and leave them to fend for themselves.
    --[X] However, you are not opposed to offering them a chance at better rations as a unarmed labor force rebuilding parts of the Italian States.
    -[X]No, but they will remain with the Army of Italy until Peace is returned to Europe.
    -[X]Sell it to the Italians: The Italian States, especially those who are in the Orbit of France's greater Geopolitical mandate, and the loyal ones will get the material to shall we say...arm and not infringe.

I do think that, with the case of the prisoners, how they are treated shouldn't really be decided by vote. I think it would give characters more personality if there are some things they are hard-coded to do, like one character will always spend his free time trying to watch the plays in a local theater and not on practicing his swordsmanship. Secondly, the vote on this would have been pretty obvious as the denizens of SV are kind hearted progressives who really aren't ruthless enough or cold blooded enough to have people be treated less than humanely, even in a game.

The Reason we placed the vote here, instead of leaving it hardcoded, is twofold.

1. We already gave a choice for Brian beforehand with Robespierre and leaving his fate up to you guys that affected his character (and the future of France), planting a few seeds of doubt within Brian's mind, and giving him a reason to listen to some of Napoleon's more... grandious ideas

2. It gives another choice to affect Brian's personality, which will carry on for the remainder of the quest, and affect his actions later on, when... Napoleon starts plotting again.

So I just finished a nice long discussion with Plaus about a certain event that is coming in the next turn, mostly involving this.

And after a long, fruitful, and thoughtful discussion...

And a realistic reaction to such a thing, such a devastating thought.

And I will leave you with this, to understand that the following update is going to put the Mature Tag to use.

"Just 1 more glass. One more can't hurt me."

So Therese is a Drunkard now? Just like that? Because of ONE failed Action that wasn't even a Crit-Fail?

Well, there goes all Progress we made in building up our Respect and Reputation within the Army...
