Sadly, even doubled festivals are still not very good. They become reasonable, but not amazing.

We have the new Build Docks action. It's ok, not amazing though.
Expand Vineyard is a pretty good secondary sometime in the medium-near future.

Another possible path is
{S} Festival {S} Expand Vineyard
This brings us to Stability 2 and has a good chance of getting Dominating on wine.


Expand Forest is a horrible choice right now, there's basically no reason to take it. We still have 1/4 of our forests free and we have no known mine locations.
 
Here's our current trade good status.

Interesting that the Hath already have it. Hmm. Makes salt really ideal...
 
Why do our Shamans remind me about techpriests from that one parody? What was it called again? Something text to speech or whatever. Anyway they better not invent the toaster before toast or I'll be wanting to have some pointed words with Crow.
 
I wonder if we could set up a trading post with the Xoh. No boat technology but I really want to see what happens when two Nations enter Golden Ages together as trading partners.

Not what I voted for god wise, but the compromise makes me happy. Our Kings are cool. Keeping all the Crow aspects at equal vaule sounds good to me. And I think it'd be adorable as hell if eventually all our people end up calling Fyth "Mom" unironically.

Gotta afk right about now, so I'll save my vote for actions until after the analysts come in and say their piece.
 
A couple of things, first
Ok, Stability 1, 4 econ slots. I've said I'd be in favour of a Policy: Megaproject push once we were set up for it, and now we are.

Let's finish the Temple.

[x][main] Great Temple
[x][secondary] Change Policy - Megaproject Support
[x][secondary] Expand Forest
I'm not in favor of megaproject support. It's really obvious this is a complete reform of our religion, so I feel we should take it slow.

Second
Build Docks - With large numbers of ships being built, a new place to store them all, the goods they bring in, and a place to build them might be a good idea
*S: -1 Econ, +2 Diplo, potential for new innovations
*M: -1 Econ, +3 Diplo, increased potential for new innovations, increased trade power
New action! Very, very good action.
 
First of all - what a hillarious update. Thank you for pulling all of the sturm und drang together in such a great way AN.

As for voting - Econ slots are low. Now is a good time to go all in on Grand Temple.

[X] [Crow] Teacher
[X] [Fyth] Harvest

[X] [Main] Great Temple
[X] [Secondary] Change Policy - Megaproject Support
[X] [Secondary] Expand Vineyard

We'll get 2 or 3 actions on Temple from Provinces, One from ourselves, and One from Symphony, so 4-5, almost certainly finishing it this turn.

Improve Annual Festival because it's a rare opportunity for us to get 1 Stability from it with a Secondary action. Study Metal because STEEL STEEL STEEL STEEL.
 
Knowable means we wants us to learn from him, Benevolent means he wants to help us.
*shrug* Ehh don't want to get into it right now but I think the first one is an assumption, but benevolent is completely correct and also what you said so...

I'm still not seeing where you are coming from?

So what I see from this is that we need to invade the Hathatyn so they'll stop competing with us for the dye and wine markets.

This gives us Stability 2, in case something happens. Study Forest as we finally have some leeway to do some science. Forest in particular as we are having our Temple there and to finally discover honey and have another trade good.

Also mead. You need honey for mead =3=

Let's not get too far ahead. Probably just better iron that is less brittle.
