They HAD contracts that bound their grandchildren. Literal centuries ago. Assuming the grandchild in question felt like honoring said promise.

@Academia Nut just to confirm, are the Bleeding Cliffs the only confirmed iron deposit we know of, where we can just make a settlement then mine without surveying? Because the bit about how "red rocks are everywhere" a couple updates ago made me think we knew of iron ore in redhills to one extent or another?

Basically yeah. Forests take time to grow, but even without constant supervision, 20 years is plenty of time for some solid things to come up.
I could go for that.

This plan seems like it'll be a good start on building back up.

Where do we even want to plant them ?
In the March or near Northshore or Blackriver or where ?

If we do a main support action for the Marches along with proclaim glory, that would likely be a really good narrative.
And if they come back next turn? The newly planted forests will be too young to be useful...and in the end it would just be an economy action. We just don't know how much time we have.

Art overflows to Mysticism.
Econ -> Diplo
Diplo -> Art
Art -> Mysticism -> Diplo
Mysticism -> Art -> Diplo
Diplo if both Art and Mysticism full -> Econ
Econ if everything else full -> Martial
Yes, you would have to survey to find another site.
Sure. But the sooner we plant the trees the sooner they can grow and impede raids. We've put it off for too long.

That doesnt advance iron, and we kinda need that online when ETH gets its shit together.
It also costs us two actions, two martial, and two econ. If we weren't currently scraping the bottom of the barrel, sure, I'd be all for it.

Also, what action do you think the Stallion Tribes is going to take with their Econ 3 Martial 1? I'm betting on Main Chariots, which puts them at Martial 5. I think they are fine.
We have to start sometime. Better to plant them now, then wait until later and have to wait until even later again.
Support Subordinate- this is an inherently inefficient action. It just transfers the stats directly and does nothing else. It just uses an action for no real benefit. Rebuild our warrior base so that we can fight them off more effectively, we're running low on all our stats save Diplomacy. Helping them directly is a better idea since it doesn't waste the action to transfer it before they can use it in the fighting.
Unless we're getting some major penalties due to distance, but it doesn't seem like we are since we control the whole land between the two of us (unlike when we fought in the lowlands against the DP).
However, building the settlement at the Bleeding Cliff is the only thing that we absolutely 100% must do this turn. Doing so as a main means that we get the Econ for the mid-turn and have a little spare Mysticism that can fund more of our elites. (edit: and it might even unlock starting the mine as a mid-turn action if we get lucky)

Making sure we have the Econ available for the mid-turn and Mysticism available for Carrion Eaters/Blackbirds/further study is more important in my mind than boosting a stat that doesn't help us much. Stability is more important, but we want to get Restore Order's efficiency first.
Ok then. It was a major factor in why we chose not to [Main] Proclaim Glory, but yeah, too late to change now.

@Academia Nut Where will an unspecified expand forests likely focus on?

If we don't support them, then the marches will likely fall and the forests we just painstakingly put up will be totally useless.
