Maybe, maybe not. It's a roll of the dice and I like to hedge my bets.

Even when faced with orks on galaborn, no space control and rolling a 2, a single company of space marines without heavy weapons was able to hold their grounds and only lose 18 space marines. there is a higher chance that we will win both in space and on the ground, and I can say the same that it's a roll of the dice if the sector lord even wants to hears us and doesn't use this chance to attack our forces.
I mean, that's like saying the AdMech in general is subjugated to the Imperium. Are they a part of it? In paper, yes. Does everyone treat them more like allies and/or associates instead of subjects because they don't want to risk a civil war against the only people that know how to build and maintain most of everything, and who also have extremely powerful armies in their own right, which include the Titans? That is also a part of it

I really need to catch up so I can be part of the discussion 😩
Right, because threatening someone into submission and then leaving him in power worked so well at Monarchia.

While Trying to be diplomatic may save the most lives, it really feels like we're just leaving someone to stab us in the back, hell he is already badmouthing us to other system lords, even if he accepts the compromise, it will leave him as a bitter ruler of a hive world who will wait for revenge, also again he hates us. And also with how much forces we are bringing against him it feels like a waste of a turn, while getting battlefleet odin under the control of battlefleet asgardia is worth it, he would still have the vanaheim valkyries and we are even letting him keep building his naval forces.
we would be taking control at least for this turn and the next turn depending on how the battle goes and how the other sub sectors and planets react, we will see if we chose another loyal noble to us to take his place or we simply appoint one of our space marines.
yeah this probably sounds like the best bet for us

Like, he might 'agree' but nothing is stopping him from stabbing us in the back. In fact, he'll probably agree to our deal, until he has enough forces at his disposal to do an Istvaan on our ass. Let's just take over the sector, and be done with all this.
Nah, when it comes to combat we have the Void and ground advantage.
The only variable is how many loyal soldiers have to die to end it.

This is the deciding factor for me and thinking otherwise is in my view very naive.
You don't become and stay a Lord Sector without being an absolute bastard who's willing to screw over any and everyone willing to oppose you.

with us already taking battefleet asgardia, the biggest help we could get from forge world thor would be in the form of their skitari legions and while very effective, I am more worried for the naval fight then the ground fight. also we need more strike cruisers specially if we lose one in the incoming fight and with them taking now 3 turns to complete the sooner the better.

Like, negotiating with him is extremely naive, since it 'proves' our meddling with governments, which is exactly what he's been railing against us for. Keeping him around let's him turn our reputation into dirt. his navy is ptitiful compared to ours, and the battlefleet defectors are Likely to defect to us, considering how hopeless their situation would be. trying to 'diplomance' him is only going to get us shot when he's hoarding his forces in the Odin system and we're actually out there bleeding ships and astartes. PLEASE don't screw us over for the sake of a false peace.

Plan Gunboat Diplomacy tries to cut a deal with him first and only resorts to violence if he refuses to or you are unable to come to an agreement with him. while Plan Let's end it tries to arrest him first before going for the kill.

Any peace will most likely only last until we find ourselves stretched thin dealing with threats to the sector after he has gathered enough forces to go on the offensive at which point he gets to destroy us piecemeal before we get the chance to reunify our forces.

Yeah, we shouldn't take any chances. This guy is a greedy bastard who has done nothing but amass his power, the only time he helped this sector was when he helped that agriworld and even then that was only because he knew that if it fell he would've been screwed. Us on the other hand have been putting out fires everywhere and he has the gall to say that we are the bad guys? He's going down.

It'll probably come to a vote after the action like with the Cruiser and favor.
