Finding Our Way: A Warring States Naruto AU/WHFB Quest

Voting is open
People who voted for my plan, I have realised that (after reading the mechanics) putting 3 companies on the vampire war is over kill (because each company rolls and they take damage individually)
So I will move one company to a different contract.

You're still only using two though. Why? We have 5 Companies, and we really only need one at home for defense. We could do a lot more for Tilea and earn a lot more money, essentially for no cost to ourselves.

Also I really think you're missing out with the Kenjutsu manuals and the construction company. Special Tactics Units are a one time only deal, we can just do Kenjutsu later. The construction company meanwhile will require Stewardship actions to be useful, while the bureaucracy costs the same amount of gold and time, but gives a massive reduction in both gold and time costs to all future Stewardship actions.

I am using 4? One against the ogres, one building and 2 slaying the vampires

  • [X] Plan: The dead should stay dead and Dwarfs
    -[X] Blackpowder production: Guns are one of our new world's most interesting and terrifying products, with but a few chemicals and a well crafted tube of steel you can give a peasant the power to kill a shinobi, we would be fools to not use it ourselves. Jounin Ahim desires to provide every shinobi with the option of a brace black powder pistols, black powder grenades and rifles for their selection. He is also interested in equipping and training civilian auxiliaries in their use. For all this Prema's chemical engineering department will be focused on creating refineries, gunsmithing factories and finding personnel to work in them.
    -[X] Basic Kenjutsu manuals: The Samurai of the Shimazu clan are generously selling scrolls detailing the most basic of their sword style to us. They are quite expensive but Jounin Ahim is confident that he can maximize the value extracted from the purchase.
    -[X] Break Their Hunger: Clan Grudgebrand are seeking our assistance in helping protect their trade caravans coming in through the Mountains of Mourn as there has been an increase of Ogres attacking them, our clients ask that we search and destroy the bastards.
    --[X]4th​ Sabaku Shinobi Company; The Poisoned Daggers.
    -[X] The Vampire Wars I: The Vampire Lord Ottone Emanuele has conquered half of Tilea and declared his mortal descendants the rightful rulers of the whole nation, Millions of bannermen both living and undead march in his name fighting, bleeding and dying for the dream of a newborn empire under the rule of the dead whom he has decreed will stretch from Estalia in the West, Sarasota to the South and Barak Varr to the East. The Cult of Morr has consolidated their forces in their holy capital and have called to arms all the faithful to oppose the undead menace, but they have also opened their coffers to those willing to fight for coin. The cult has sent a representative from a Shinobi clan just like us to present a contract. The money being offered is great and so are the opportunities to cut our shinobi's teeth properly but so are the risks of spilt blood.
    --[X] 1st​ Sabaku Shinobi Company; The Iron Hands.
    --[X] 2nd​ Sabaku Shinobi Company; The Guardians.
    -[X] Alchemical Stockpile: The vampires are a varied lot of creatures, some have weaknesses towards sunlight, others towards running water or even a specific helplessness towards the metals crafted by the Dawi and elves. But one thing all the leeches share is deep seated fear and weakness towards fire. Prema will conscript every single chemist in the clan into providing the shinobi forces sent to fight the vampires this year a massive arsenal of incendiary weapons at their disposal to use against them.
    -[X] Guerilla Warfare training: Prema has plans to begin reinforcing and expanding what our shinobi know about fighting from the shadows giving them all more of an edge on the battlefield. Raise the stealth of all shinobi below Jounin by +3. Provides +3 to any intrigue based mercenary missions.
    -[X] Dealing with Barak-Varr: These Dawi as they call themselves, have traditions regarding hair they like to see observed amongst themselves, and believe everyone else should too, where the men keep their beards uncut while the women never cut their hair and keep them in long ornate plaits, this is the reason why Miyoharu was fixing her hair extensions. Either way it is in the clan's interest to make contact with their dual purpose fortress city and harbor of Barak Varr which controls the biggest sea based trading node in your area.
    -[X] The Black Cloaked Church and Clan of Hounds: The supreme uniting power of the Free Tilean States is without a doubt the church of Morr. With a clenched iron fist, a will of steel and eyes burning with the blackest of hatred they call their flock to wage war alongside them against the walking dead. But they do not march alone. Following side by side with them is their closest partner the Hatake Clan who pursue their ally's war with the same fanaticism. To entreat and meet with one is to meet the other by default and both factions have offered a seat at the table.
    -[X] Stone and Steel Fortress Network: Those same villages I would build roads to not only make good vassals and trade partners but be the first stones upon which waves of invaders will break themselves, I will turn them into fortress towns with large walls, local artillery such as catapults and ballista to protect them, weapon depots of crossbows and armor and then provide them with a garrison shinobi to patrol the area and act as messengers.
    -[X] Sabaku State Construction Company: Our mastery of Jiton and Doton have given us absolute dominance over a very lucrative niche as the fastest high quality builders ever seen in this world, we must take advantage of this fact. A state company composed mainly of retired Shinobi and chakra cultivating civilians will be formed to provide our allies and partners with our services as engineers and builders, for a fee of course.
    -[X] Study Gunpowder: Gunpowder, that curious substance that you were introduced to shortly after coming to this world. It smells awful, it is toxic, and it is a bit difficult to make. But it would be idiotic to reject learning more about this chemical substance simply because the current methods of use don't suit us.
    -[X] Study Gunsmithing: Guns are garbage for your ninja. They are loud, slow to load and your shinobi can match the speed of the projectiles they fire with kunai and muscle power. But they are still useful for your civilians and for any allies or vassals we may acquire here as they are a mundane way of giving a lot of firepower to non-chakra cultivating humans. Not to mention the metallurgical techniques used in the construction of such weapons could be applied to our own arms manufacturing.
    -[X] Theological Dialogue: There are many gods in this land and Akeem would like to know more about them so he is proposing sending out our priest and priestesses to find temples to the local gods and ask about their own gods so we can gain a better understanding of them and not offend them.
    -[X] Train Kittens: We do not have the Cat contract, but we do have regular cats who are still very useful for sniffing out vermin and evil, blessed be the Gods for granting us such a holy animal as our companions. Akeem would like them trained to very high standards to be guards to temples and scouts for other areas.
    -[X] Overwork yourself: There is too much work to get done! I will put in the hours to see them finished, this I swear!
    --[X] Build Shrines: The people of this land have righteous faiths according to Akeem, a heartening thing really to know that the evil cults like Jashinism aren't the norm in this region as such there is a proposal to start building shrines to our own pantheon along the routes and towns our shinobi are patrolling.
    -[X] Courting the Emerald Eyed Merchant Part 1: I keep thinking about Yabol; shy, adorable and so wonderful in how he treats me. I want to see him again, I need to claim him again, I will go to him.
    -[X] Retrieve the Golden Serpent: The Dawi of Karak Varr have come to the clam compound demanding the services of Clan Leader Kannika, and only her, for a mission of the utmost importance. The Runelord of the Hold has himself personally come to make the request and his authority is absolute, he will not take any answer but yes.
    [X] Plan: Building Is As Fun As Breaking
    -[X] Special Tactics Units: Jounin Akeem's battle against the vampires has proven that this world merits the presence of more specialized Shinobi to handle certain threats. We will prepare a team to analyze our shinobi after every military engagement and then pick out those who stand out for more advanced training as specialists.

    -[X] Fight, Build, Fight: The lords of the cities of Khypris, Masserschloss, Vardanos, Akendorf and Myrmidens have come to us with hat and coin in hand to beg for our help in fortifying their lands in case of a vampire invasion. They have heard rumors and seen with their own eyes not only how quickly we have raised our settlement but how high quality all our infrastructure is. Our clients desire us to do two things, defend the land from any raiding parties sent by the ersatz Tilean Empire and to rebuild and remake their cities in our image.

Edit: I see the problem now. When you added in the Build, Fight, Build action you didn't place an X in the boxes, so the tally didn't register them. Okay, take the part about the Companies out then, but I retain my stance on the rest.

Alright Champions you got a very bad roll for your home defense roll and now you're at a crossroads.

One of the boss characters I designed is attacking your compound after y'all rolled a Nat 1 on your defense roll. Now you can choose to just take the L and let Raizou, who was defending the place, be out of commission for a year with minimal casualties.

Or you can test your might and try to fight the boss.

The only rail guard y'all get is that Raizou won't die. But the rest of his men can, if you win you'll either cripple the boss for the next few years or if you capture him just straight up kill him.

If you pull off either I'll give you lots of rewards for it including promoting one of your Chunin into a tokubetsu with the skill of your choice and upgrading all of Raizou's shinobi into the Hardened experienced bracket.

Vote'll be open till next Monday.

[] Fuck no I don't want to fight him!

[] Hell yeah let me at him!
 
Can we get more information about the nature of the boss (aka species, abilities and so on) or is it complete surprise.
 
Before y'all make a choice you should read the game mechanics, I won't give you a hopeless choice after all.

"A defending unit can only retaliate once a round against a single unit, so it is advisable to bog down stronger units with weaker ones and then have specialists, ranged units and artillery attack them while they're busy." For example is on the first page.

Also to give more context this guy is a CQC meat blender duelist with insane mobility. Which means he's good at taking out champions make of that what you will.

The fact that we are even having a vote about this instead of just automatically running the defense rolls should be evidence on its own that we do not want to leave it up to the hands of fate

Fate is Raizou being out of commission for a year with a minor casualty roll for your troops like ten genin, but a lot of damage to your vassals, like you'll need to spend a few turns reconstructing them, a hit to your income and pop growth, instability for your clan and the big purple guy will still be around to harass you later.

You can take that L if you want it won't ruin you but the guy will be around making a mess of things in the foreground instead of the background.
 
[X] Fuck no I don't want to fight him!

Feels too risky now, gather information, make some poison and seals to deal with him, and fight him on our own terms.
