Sorry but I am not supporting removing the Grey Ghost action. So I am not voting for the Gear plan in this format.
edit: so
[X]Plan: Let's not traumatize our dragon
-[X]Train a skill: Time management
-[X]Meet the Officers: It's time to break bread with the Rest of the Captains, and then find out who stays, and who is scared. Cost 2 BP
-[X]Take Stock of Equipment: You want to know what exactly the City Watch is using as their standard gear. They can't be using what is left from the Red Keeps Armory. Cost 3 BP
-[X]At the Guardsmen Lists: You want to know how many men you have, how many are needed to patrol the city, and how best to use them. Cost 4 BP
-[X]And Then He spoke: You looked at the Cannibal, as it roared at you. And you were no longer afraid of it.
-[X]The Grey Ghost's Pained Silence: Your Dragon was not happy with being kept in the Dragon pit. He wants to fly free. And you will try to do just that.

The Departure of the Silent and the Rogue
The Departure of the Silent and the Rogue
Prince Daemon Targaryen or known by many as The Rogue Prince was walking down the street to see his son Lucien before he had to leave for Dorne.
Dorne....Daemon was happy that his brother Viserys was showing force against them but....Viserys was only doing a small attack and not going far into Dorne. They should be doing much more than that. Daemon feared this show of 'force' won't be enough.
Daemon loved his brother. His strengths. His flaws. He was his king. But people will use his soft nature against him for their own gain. It's Daemons duty to make sure that doesn't happen.
While other kingdom's are supportive of this campaign Daemon mind focused on two. The Stormlands and Reach. Only the Marcher lords of those kingdoms decided to listen to their king.
The Stormlands and their pride. The fools. Still can't get over Rhaenys wasn't picked at the Great Council. One day they'll just have to accept that they lost or else.
The Reach. Just thinking about that kingdom always irritates him. Otto and his Hightower plots. Always whispering in his brothers ear. The Faith and the lords causing problems. Even going so far to say that his son Lucien wouldn't be safe if he ever entered the Reach.
Daemon almost didn't realize how hard he was squeezing the door handle before he loosened his grip. Taking a few calming breaths before he entered.
Daemon saw Lucien working at the Lord Commanders desk. Lucien looked up and smiled once he realized who is was. Daemon smiled as Lucien stood up to meet him
"Lucien, I depart for Dorne soon." Lucien smile falter for a fraction of a second but Daemon noticed it. Daemon know this is hard for Lucien. And for himself too if he was honest.
Lucien signed "When will you return?" Daemon didn't know and by how Lucien reacts to him not answering he realized Daemon answer.
Daemon and Lucien remained silent for a few moments before Daemon decided he needed to speak. "They are gonna underestimate you," Lucien tensed and even some anger entered his eyes but not directed at Daemon. Daemon continued "but you will make them pay for it."
Lucien remained silent but the anger started to leave his eyes at the last thing Daemon said. Daemon knew Lucien had the blood of the dragon in him and he couldn't be anymore proud of him.
"The fools will think up reasons to underestimate you. Your age. Your inexperience. Your quiet nature." Daemon said intensely. Lucien paying very much attention to what was being said to him. "But I know differently. I have seen your strength. And when I return I expect to hear how the city knows to fear and respect, Lucien the Silent."
Lucien stood there before he decided to speak. "I will." Lucien decided to walk up to Daemon to embrace each other.
They did that for for a few moments and started to separate but before they fully separated Daemon whispered. "Be ruthless." Lucien nodded to Daemon as he left the room.
Daemon doesn't realize it but this meeting has made Lucien seriously consider facing one of the few things that he fears....The Cannibal.
(And scene. Hope you guys liked this little scene of Daemon and Lucien with some possible thoughts I think Daemon would have currently. Not expecting it to be canon)

A Horrible Moonlight:
-[X]Learn a skill: Administration Rolled:D100 => 71
It was a terrible thing trying to realize what you had done. But you had learned how to be a captain, so now you learned to be a man who could do paperwork like a captain.
You say it was a thrilling but unfulfilling thing that is entirely necessary for the continued survival of the Watch itself.
Skill learned: Administration (Trained): You know how to handle paperwork, and make sure it is done in such a way that no one can read it. (No roll bonuses to your rolls)
-[X]Train a skill: Time management Rolled:D100 => 13
You failed to get better at managing your time.
Failure.
--------------------------------
-[X]Meet the Officers: It's time to break bread with the Rest of the Captains, and then find out who stays, and who is scared. Cost 2 BP Rolled:D100 => 24
It seems that the way you took to greeting the officers was not the greatest idea. You tried to be nice, sending out letters and riders calling them to break Bread… But that was not what it seems to have caused…good tidings.
Two guard captains did not listen and had their men confined to barracks, allowing anyone who had the gold to enter the city with impunity. From highwaymen, bandits, and cutthroats.
It was a mutiny of the highest order. They had taken a side, that you were not going to be the one who commands them, a child and a prince.
You were going to change their tune. Greatly.
Failure. New Action Available.
-[X]Take Stock of Equipment: You want to know what exactly the City Watch is using as their standard gear. They can't be using what is left from the Red Keeps Armory. Cost 3 BP Rolled:D100 => 25
To put it lightly. There was no stock. Most men just had sticks and dirks and maybe one or two had helms.
They were shoddily clad. Shoddily armed. And shoddily there.
No man wanted to be there. And no man was loyal. At least to you.
It was like looking at gang lords.
Failure. New Action Avalible
-[X]At the Guardsmen Lists: You want to know how many men you have, how many are needed to patrol the city, and how best to use them. Cost 4 BP Rolled:D100 => 29
How do you describe how many men you have?
You have none, save for the few that were fresh-faced recruits. The captains of the city gates and guards did not respect your authority, and why should they?
A Child was given a command. And he nearly killed one of their own in a fit of rage.
But they will learn fear.
They all would.
Failure.
----------------------------------------
-[X]And Then He spoke: You looked at the Cannibal, as it roared at you. And you were no longer afraid of it. Rolled:D100 => 100
You looked at the Cannibal and felt the great power that it had looking through its black eyes and steely gaze. It did not like it in the Dragonpit. In fact, if it were not for Aegor's chains around its neck, it would have lashed, bit, and tried to incubate and later incinerate the dragon keepers.
Yet now it was calm and enjoying the meat that the keepers were giving it.
And it stared at you like you were a piece of meat.
It stared and it was brutal… quiet. It barely granted you the attention you deserved.
Until you spoke. "I am alive you bloody beast."
The words rang hollow, cold, and quiet. Like you were but a ghost looking at this beast of nature, barely controlled by a hand of death and metal. "I am alive, and you could not eat me."
The Dragon snorted as if it did not care. Then you said, "The Ghost is mine."
That made the dragon look at you, with an understanding gaze. "I am not yours. I am Lucien."
"And my silence frightens you."
The Cannibal roared. Yet instead of unleashing fire. It looked at you… petrified.
Your very presence frightened it… at least in your mind.
It was something that was afraid... Afraid of you.
Or maybe it was your dragon that it feared. But no matter.
It roared.
And you roared back.
You realized something more, as you roared with a dragon. It was a powerful beast, bent to your will. And it would never harm you again.
Reward: Lose trait: Selective muteness.
Your Bond with the Grey Ghost is far more secure.
The Cannibal no longer scares you.

You have 8 Actions.
You have 10 BP to spend each turn. These BP replenish every turn, but you cannot save it, as the budget will reallocate elsewhere that the Crown needs.
The King does not wish to give you much… It seems he has little faith in his guardsmen. At least right now. He expects you to change that before he offers or gives more resources.
City Watch Actions.
[]Arrest the Officers: It's time to break bread with the Rest of the Captains, and then find out who stays, and who dies. Cost 2 BP
[]Buy Equipment: You can't work with shit. You need steel and quickly. Cost 3 BP
[]From Scratch: You have disloyal men and disloyal guardsmen keeping the peace. What you need is a fresh cadre. Loyal hounds. Cost 4 BP
[]The Gates And the Power of them: You need to know how the Gates are controlling Traffic in the city, and how it goes out? Cost 3 BP
[]Gangs and Gaurdlords: You need to find out how these fucking captains managed to not only be horribly corrupt... but above your orders? Cost 1 BP
[]Situation Report (Flea Bottom): You want to know how the Slums of the City are doing? So best start making the rounds and figure things out. Cost 2 BP
[]Situation Report (Street of Steel): The Street of Steel is known for its knights and smiths, but they are also lousy with thieves, and cutthroats. And many men who would seek to destroy another, should they get the chance. Cost 4 BP
[]Situation Report (The Port): The Port is the second Richest part of the City. That means there are grifters, thieves and other low lives. Time to find out how to handle this. Cost 3 BP
[]Situation Report (The Street of Silk): The Street of Whores more like it. The Brothel capital of the city, and easily the richest part of the city not called the Red Keep. There may not be great crimes here. But there are far more dangerous foes that may need to be dealt with.
[]Situation Report: (Gin Alley): The So-called name for the twenty pubs that line the main way to Shepherds Square. Also known as the Murder capital of the City. Drunks, horses… many horrible things. It can be stamped down. Cost 5 BP
[]Request More funds: If the King wants his city Secured, you need more funds! (Linetail how much funds you like to gain every turn.)
[]Drill: You want these men to be the envy of Westeros. So you will try to make them. Well, Ser Harold will help with that, seeing as you are… not that great at training men.

[]The Grey Ghost's Pained Silence: Your Dragon was not happy with being kept in the Dragon pit. He wants to fly free. And you will try to do just that.
[]The Cupbearer's Terror: She is frightened of you… Every moment she sees you she wants to go away. Instead, you come to her and tell her it's going to be alright.
[]The Knight of Fear: Harold Westerling is frightened of you. You need to make him know he is not in any danger. Not unless he wishes to become one.
[]To the King's Court and Council: The King has requested your presence if you can make it to the court. He is trying to tout you around, maybe make your name well… and marry you off if he can before your parents come back from Dragonstone.
[]We Light the Way: Alicent Hightower is a strange girl, but there was something you always knew. She likes spending time in Godswood. And you wanted to talk to her.
[]We Remember: You heard the news, but you could do nothing but send a letter to them… And try your best to help them, far far from home.
[]The Testimony of Mushroom: Mushroom is perhaps the only man you trust at court who isn't family. That is a terrifying prospect because you barely know him. But he is funny, as the Seven Hells. And he really likes spending time with you.
[]The Storm Singers Songs: The songs of the Gods are being said. Time to find out just what they sing?
[]The River's Sons: The Heroes of Dragonstone have returned. And you were forced to meet them, as you saw just what Maegor's line produced.

No the Cannibal is just afraid of us. Because we kinda...
Well that is a secret.
But we can talk now?
Also, you think these guardsmen are stupid? Oh fuck no. These guys are really... You'll see. Eventually.
I needed to make it suitably badass to gain our voice back.

Doubling down on the skills because we need to get them higher, going through most of the officer actions to get a new cadre of loyalists, requesting funds because 10 is not enough to work with at present, and then court and grey ghost as promised. there really isn't much else we can do to alter the plan but after this I think we should start diverting skill training into managing wrathful, any ideas?
Edit: some of those personal actions are really spooking me, like westerling and the serving girl. I want to include them and actually spend a tunr riding grey ghost to see if that can destress us.

Administration and Cannibal went very well. Everything else? Not so good. Lots of corruption that probably has high enough backing to not fear their new commander that is also a prince.
Need to train the few loyal to us, get them proper equipment and then deal with these guys.

Would recommend not asking for more funds. Don't think Viserys will give it because he wants results first and Lucien hasn't done that yet. Maybe go Drills for our new recruits?

@Magoose Would drills work with our current cadre of officers or next turns cadre? Or do we do the drills ourselves? If its not the new batch I'd rather put in the gate action and use that last point of BP.

This turns Cadre. mostly because, since you have only fresh faces. you would have to bring them up.
As for the Drills. Westerling does it mostly, because he has the eperience.
As for other things... You will get a status on the city Watch soon.

@mrsean22 In that case I'm taking the gate action, best not to waste time training officers we're going to purge anyway. Last version of the plan is this, no more last minute changes like last time, sorry about that @wencitofrum
Edit: Gangs not gates, its the 1 BP action.

Can we also tell the people who are close to us we can talk now. Cause that seems really important.

I'm thinking next turn we do training, equipment, and focus on personal actions more, maybe a half and half spit depending on the Gold Cloak actions we have at out disposal. Other than that can anyone think of skill that might help with our current maluses? Maybe leaning hoe to do actual speeches or oratory or training theatrics again.
