That... is a very good point. This is pretty much the perfect material for it.

Well, we now know how to make VS, or were we merely a hairsbreath away?
If Viserys thinks it'd work, then I'm 100% for getting a few thousand tons of +2 adamantine.
If not, not really interested. Even the efreeti are liable to have saner vessels, and their toilets run on misery.

See the second part. I just want to understand the tech and see if we can get better VS out of hell-iron.
I have zero interest in a ugly rust-bucket.

DP told us that the smith we recruited needs only a month to learn how to make VS. Enough time to get him some samples from the bucket to see if it has potential, learn what we can from it's engine and then cutting it apart.
And I sincerely doubt that we won't find a productive use for LE iron, even if for some strange reason the VS idea won't work out.

The first legion.
We should actually check if the Xorn has something for sale guys. A few months since last time we did.
Edit:
First legion with VS.
Second legion has CIron.
Third legion truesilver...
Editedit:
Alright we really need to found a Smithing Academy; firstly for standardized legion logistics, secondly to make cool new alloys!

Imagine the reactions when we kit out even just half a column in full VS.
Volantis would crown us Imperator, no prodding from Zherys needed and Westeros would go crazy.
Eh, could go either way regarding the ship. If figure it's all the other slaves or the Snake, the sacrificable devil weapons and the bodies galore or the ship. Fifty fifty see? Would be fitting.
Personally I'm still bummed nobody ever seems to be interested in Special Ability granting items. Two dozen pretty good ones right in front of us and nothing.

*Urge to pirate Baatezu ships in River Styx intensifies*
I'd build a dedicated Eternal Forge for it first though. Really dont want to risk cross contamination when we are working with THAT much blood and evil juice.

Part MMCCLXXX: Upon a Sea of Flame Part Thirteen
Upon a Sea of Flame Part Thirteen
Seventh Day of the Fifth Month 293 AC
Within your mind you call for aid, not desperately not in haste for all the strength and numbers the foe has shown, but with surety and purpose. "Silence the weapons."
Thus they come amidst three thunderous detonations rippling into each other: your sister, your friends, you allies of the moment, all united in common purpose. From Dany's lips a spell is born to lull accursed magic into slumber, not once but twice, her spell arcing from one diabolic engine to the other in a blaze of shifting colors. With a shudder of twisted metal two of the weapons lie motionless once more.
Two Hellfire Belchers suppressed for 3 rounds
The final Orthon had dropped its bow and recovered its jagged iron pike, trying to reach over Ser Richard's shoulder to strike at Dany. The knight's first blow severs the weapon, the second takes the devil's arm, and the third its life, while Dany hardly seems to notice.
By contrast Rina erects a wall of ice in an instant, the flawless surface reflecting scenes of havoc lit by crimson flames even as it encircles another of the hell-forged engines, while Waymar made wise by his earlier misadventure does not direct his magic towards another, but instead meets the charge of squad of Bueroza with his own, a pair of salamanders bearing heavy dragonglass axes protecting him from being surrounded by the baatezu.
One Hellfire Belcher Bound in Ice for 14 minutes
Enchanted bronze and the skill of scores of battles against foes far mightier than these serve Waymar in good stead as he slays one devil almost single-handedly and then a second weakened fiend on the back-swing, their armor-clad forms collapsing with a clang
Waymar loses 23 Temporary Hit Points
Just as the remaining engines began to glow to life with fel sorcery, one is buried in sand by Tyene's magic, blinding its arcane gaze, and the second struck a mighty blow from Yrten's hammer as he races across the decks, using his stout stature to roll under the blows of no less than three steel devils before the fourth claimed a meager tithe of blood.
Two Hellfire Belchers disabled for the duration of the battle
The final weapon roars to life, not near so frightful now that it is alone, you narrowly swerve from its path, something within you rebelling against the unnatural acrid smell it left on the air... the echo of screams. It grow and grows: the rattle of chains the screech of tearing metal, the rasp of the dying, all these seem part of the music of the damned, yet no description you could put into words could fully describe the dreadful din.
Steel Devil Chant in effect: All spell casters on the deck must make a concentration check to cast successfully (DC+22+ spell level)
Even as five more Ortons emerge, pikes bristling from below decks, and Siduri finally shows her hand, thrusting one of the steel-clad devils away from its fellows down the hatch in a clang of metal and infernal curses. The ropes at her feet twist and coil, weaving together with deadly intent. No fiends these, but you know them just the same. Mindless, deadly, called to serve, a pair of hangmen golems rise to their masters' calls.
What do you do?
[] Burn the golems as quickly as you can
[] Kill the Steel Devils
[] Seal the hatches
[] Write in
OOC: Somehow you guys are fighting an entire ship full of devils without taking any real damage. There were no less than three crits in this round on your side (though one was Dany's caster check for suppressing an engine).

Oh, you misunderstand. I'm all for making a few steel-turtles to carve that chant ability out of their soul.
If we can teach the Legion to disrupt magic by singing a good marching song...

I just don't see the value of LE being greater than LN iron...
.I am generally curious about the results though

Fortunately they take a full round action to assemble and she can dimension door (assuming she makes her concentration check).

Richard: "No."
Could you tell us how high a bounty Baator is setting on our souls once this is done?

Think we can overprice a ressurection if she dies?
Edit: I kindof like this here PoF sea, we should just keep grinding here every turn to gather ships and loot. Liberate slaves, and gain recruits.

You'll have to interrogate devils about it IC first.

@DragonParadox A map might be a bit much, but how viable is a maximised searing firebreath on the devils? Going by the angles and positioning of allies? Can we get the golems too/instead?
Can we agonise-dispelling/blinding with without needing a concentration check? If we do, but fail, can our searing breath work anyway?

For one, we don't have LN iron.I just don't see the value of LE being greater than LN iron...

The other thing is that VS is made by infusing iron with LE juice, so it stands to reason that infusing LE iron with LE juice will have greater potency.

Oh, if she can make it away then I want to focus on other things. Namely the annoying Steel Devils. One good Searing Agnoizing Firebrand right in the middle of them...

I'm on board for the research.
I liked this representation a lot. Kudos.
