Also, as demonstrated by her latest adventures in Kislev, Mathilde can always just go poke the nearest appropriate local lord to muster their forces and then chivvy said forces into the appropriate position with RoW if she does turn out to need a retinue/army for something or another.

there is something to be said for knightbringer retinue being a force that can be summoned anywhere, doesnt need to be supplied with food/water/ect, doesnt have moral to break, and that cant really be prepared for because an enemy assassins infiltrating your castle and summoning an army is the sort of thing people dont plan for. i think it would fit our playstyle very well.
Are you familiar with the term 'bidding war'? Anything we lose in freedom we more than gain in leverage by openly pitting the two rivals against each other.
Assuming you think the Druchii could ever be trusted. And could be worked with even assuming they can be trusted. I remain unconvinced on either point.
I believe we have more to gain from an azur-druchii bidding war than a nordland-middenland bidding war. mostly because we are operating as the head of the waystone project, not as the empire's spymaster and the dark and high elves both operate waystone networks and possess knowledge we could learn from. while the nordland disputes are someone else's problem. but that's just my assessment

...Put together these two statements seem to imply that we have between an 18% and 50% chance of ripping our way back into closed liminal spaces, assuming we can:
1 learn a very dangerous battle magic
2 learn to aim it in a plane that we don't even have words to describe
3 put a second liminal realm in between the old one and reality
4 actually find old liminal realms to aim at
5 make sure that pit of shades doesn't just kill you anyways even when it leads to a place that has three spatial dimensions
6 overcome whatever defenses or countermeasures the person who originally made the liminal space we're breaking into may have left behind
I see no possible ways that this could go wrong.

The eonir are already working to play the druchii and the azur against each other. We don't need to do it for them unless we're looking to personally profit, and I can't think of anything I'd want out of that more than elf dad headpats so I'd pass tbh
If we want personal profit, we can just sell ilithmar.

Caught up!
It's kinda expected though, by absolutely everyone else who has no clue. We're personally close after the battle against drycha, and we're involved in Kislev in general pretty heavily what with the expedition and the Waystone project outreach.
I like this. Especially because no winds will ever get in, so they might just stay skulls forever, their own personal afterlife.
True, but if you wait till a rift heals just enough to fit a skull through it, I don't think they can escape.
I've read german-translated sentences that ran on for three pages, so I'm saying an asterisk in my head.
Agreed. We should do it AFTER elfcation, after we develop a huge reputation with the druchii. Then we can show it if to the Eonir and maybe have some of the druchii sword masters come to fight us- in a place where they can't kill us. We'll get better, it'll grind their gears, win-win.
I want elfcation next turn! Gigaflex and BOUNCE! Same turn works best on that, I think.
I hope so. But if we didn't make an effort he'd have to deliberately seek to spend time around Kragg to find out about it, so...

Good to know, but it still might be worth our time to do more enchantment lessons to get the learning bonuses.

We are a busy important person, nobody is going to blink if we fail to appear at a coronation of a foreign head of state when we have not been specifically invited.

I kinda want the Gambler on the Orb construction action, given that it involves smooshing together twenty gallons of daemonblood and eight full powerstones in an enclosed space.
And we can't switch the Coin mid-vacay, so that would mean missing out on the Protector if we start it the same turn.
I think for Gigaflex and BOUNCE, the Elfcation is still better to take on the following turn. Rather, you'd make the Orbs on the upcoming turn and hold off on handing them in for a few months until the book is written and the ship to Ulthuan is chartered and then do all of that at once.
