Sigh. Ever since we took her off crafting we get so much less done per month. Need more high leveled crafters.
 
You know, Volantis destroying Chroyane and then suffering internal political turmoil about the returning slave army wanting to end slavery was just amazing. It was a long plot, it made sense, and it really made the world feel as if it had real agency. I love that kind of thing!

And on another note, the Dothraki civilisation being nuked offscreen was just so convenient for us. Denazification is hard enough when you aren't trying it on ******* horse-nomads who can just leave and be a pain elsewhere unless you kill most of them, their horses and their ecosystem.

Thanks, I hope I can keep pulling that off.

Anyway for the second interlude today I'm thinking of doing that merchant on his first visit to the prime material that @Abhishek M suggested yesterday.

Actually, Lya does a huge amount of crafting through her Dedicated Wrights. I can't look at the sheet right now to refresh my memory, but I believe she has a crafting capacity per month equal to 15,000 IM, not counting the discount she would get for crafting intelligent Constructs.

But yes, we seriously need more craftera. Fingers crossed for good results in Vialisk.
 
[] Collect on the following:
-[] A book on Green Dragons and Chromatic Dragons in particular, adding on to the Draconis Compendium that Relath and Amrelath have already written.
-[] Histories of the Days of Dawn and the Age of Heroes. (Started: 1 months ago)

[] Have Felzath closely cooperating with House of Mirrors.

-[] A seer of his magnitude can surely be of use, considering that Yss-granted divination is limited in quantity, and the ritual used by House of Mirrors is somewhat limited, albeit still capable when used en-mass.
Hey, @DragonParadox, as an afterthought just as I start compilin next month's MAs - what about these 2 remaining?
there's also Siduri sharing True Names she knows, but that one is not important rn at all.

But did they reach The Sorrows? thats the worst part of it, and the map shows Chroyane and most of the sorrows still not under our control.

Yup, they caught the Shrouded Lord and sacrificed him to purify the Sorrows and bring back Meraxes Yss Style. The Shrouded Lord taunted Zherys with hints about the 15th which Viserys verified.

I remeber when the thread hoped that the Sorrows expedition would fail horribly and weaken Volantis. Ah the past. But yeah I agree using agreeing with Viserys' request to end slavery by creating a large victorious slave army hes patron of was really really canny on Zherys' end.

Yeah the thread is kinda merciless when it comes to enemies/neutrals/people who aren't us, back back then they wanted to eat Yss.

The Seer action did not amount to much because the people who work in the House of Mirrors are mostly experts with ritual lore so they did not have much to held the plant dragon with. I'll write up the books in the morning.

Out of curiosity, who are we expecting to attack Braavos? Or is the stationing of the Chainbreakers more of a precautionary measure while Braavos consolidates after its recent conquests?

It's metaknowledge based on a non-canon Omake by Azel. Boo.

Or maybe there's another explanation I missed. Whatever.
 
Not exactly meta knowledge. Braavos is mostly built on the water, and thus is horribly exposed to Deep Ones attacking them. We're actually late in sending reinforcements.
The legion is astonishingly poorly equiped to deal with deep ones.

Any progress on getting entangle weed? Underwater mercenaries? Anything aside from the giths?

Braavos is a least set up to break down magical intrigue. The Orphene court and the silver eye aren't super familiar with deepies, but that cuts both ways in that case.

The Legion is perfectly capable of clearing out chaff like the Skum and the Sahuagin, and that's useful because in a big city-wide attack the Companions can show up very quickly but they can't be everywhere at once. A legionnaire could be the difference between some poor Braavosi being dragged under the waves or making it to safety.
 
*is compiling shit*
*realises shit*

Shall I add "make an order of palntforged creatures" as an MA next month, so that we actually don't forget about it?

Protection for Heart Trees aside (lots of 'em), we also need forces to counter Illithids, supplementaries for Tritons, additions to Ibbenise fleet (what you wanted there, again, @Crake?), and more plants for Nightwatch...

We can vote on minor actions separately, so if it doesn't fall into the remit of a full action, then assume yes and we'll leave it up to democracy. :cool:

Mindflayers prefer mind control, assassination, and terrorism.

Killing any amount of Skum or Sahaguin isn't going to impress or intimidate them. Nor will they have them do anything they consider important.

Our legions also have no ability to fight underwater. In a city riddled with Canals.

Edit:
At least send s few crates of auran masks with them?

Water is still a minus 4 to everything, but at least they could get in it without drowning.

The legionnaires aren't there to combat the Mindflayers, they're there to make sure the endless waves of chaff don't have total free reign. Yes, the canals are a problem, but the legionnaires aren't expected to fight underwater. It's better that they're there to at least guard the land, instead of not being there and Braavosi being ripe hunting grounds for Skum nd Sahuagin who could literally walk into a house and pluck their new victims.

As for the Mindflayers themselves, that's where the PCs come in. If there's an attack then Viserys and the Companions will be called.

Can we give them some Auran Masks at least? Enough to "get their feet wet" as it were?

It's better than them fighting with huge penalties AND drowning.

:???: I'm not sure what your issue with this is, dude. They're not expected to jump into the canals and start fighting the Deep Ones in the water. Sure, if it's feasible to craft en mass we can make Auran Masks, but why are you acting like all of them will be fighting underwater? The Legion will be tasked with setting up chokeholds and making safezones on land which civilians can retreat to (and there are lots of canals, yes, but there are also big town squares and islands), not diving into the waves and hunting down Deep Ones. That part simply isn't what they're there for. They're there to guard the citizens so the PCs can hunt the Deep One leaders without distraction.

We're making them in decent quantities, but not enough to equip a Legion. That may change in the future.
