We have a simple answer to massed bodies.
Walls and elite attrition-minded skirmishers.
The issue is that not every settlement has walls.

The mechanics between the quests are also rather different due to the level of detail and time scales that they both operate at and most of the similarities will be from both quests being inspired by PoC.

@Oshha to be clear, would this still add an ongoing cost of 4 Temp Econ per turn the way it does for our barbarian subordinates or is it a one-time cost?

One time cost.
@Oshha How many actions (or, more to the point, how much +Temp Econ from farming) would the Forluc+Forden have, as our vassal?
If they give, like, net +5 Temp Econ / Turn, that would alleviate the worries that the climate might roll badly and send our Temp Econ into the negatives.

Why would they give bonus Econ? None of our other subordinates do. Quite the opposite: our current Ice Age situation translates to -4 Temp Econ / Turn per non-Arthrynite subordinate.
Forluc and Forden would mean adding two more non-Arthrynite vassals. Presumably, they would be treated the same as our other barbarian subordinates.
If you want to reduce the Temp Econ drain? Wait until a Main turn and vote:
[] [SEC/MAIN] Support Subordinate = (Target)
on a non-religious subordinate with the stated intent of making them more Arthrynite in culture/religion so they can grow their own food, like the Cernn. Or the Maradysh.
So, I'm definitely confused about the mechanics. I see our vassals doing "More Food" on the action list, and I assume that contributes +1 Temp Econ. But, if it's only for themselves (not for our Temp Econ stat), and we in fact net -4 Temp Econ / Turn / Vassal, where is our Temp Econ gain each turn coming from (with regeneration paused due to the Ice Age)?

I'm not sure why you would get Econ from the Forlucans if they were your vassal. You don't get anything from your vassals since the players vote not to.
The 'More Food' is basically telling you what your subordinates are getting up to. As for where you are getting your Temp Econ, it is from your Province Actions and your Passive Policies.
Alright, let me try to make sense of this.
9 Provinces
9 Provinces, for a total of 4 province actions (and also 4 of our own actions), and +4 extra passive policies (5 passive policies total).
Passive policy is 5x Agriculture, each for +4 Temp Econ per turn. This gives us +20 Temp Econ / Turn.
Province actions are being spent on: [MAIN] More Farming, [SEC] More Farming, [SEC] Venerate the Goddesses, for a total of +6 Temp Econ / Turn.
Extra bonus from census: +1 Temp Econ / Turn.
Adding these together, our gains amount to +27 Temp Econ / Turn.
I assume the High dependence vassals are the ones that are draining -4 Temp Econ / Turn. There are 4 of them, for a total of -16 Temp Econ / Turn.
Conclusion: we net gain +11 Temp Econ / Turn, and have 4 total secondary actions to work with. (The Forluc, meanwhile, would only consume 10 or 20 Temp Econ once, and after that be self-sufficient.)
We also have -2 Temp Econ Damage from Census, -1 Temp Econ damage per province (-9 total), for a total of -11 Temp Econ Damage from the 1d20 climate roll. So we have a 55% of taking no damage and are in zero danger of hitting negative Temp Econ with 2 turns (even starting with 25 Temp Econ from abolishing slavery).
(On average, we expect a net gain of +6 Econ/Turn.)
Does this look right to everyone?

Waging war will unlock new tactics and strategies to counter the Caradysh. We won't be making much progress on that front if we remain at peace.

I think that the only logical solution to the Caradysh is to build a enormous canal around them to show dominance.
5 provinces with 6 or more settlements. Those are the only ones that give benefits.
6 provinces with settlements. Those count towards our minimum centralization. Except we have 4 Admin-free provinces(+1 from Palace Megaproject) so we only have 1 province worth of increased lower centralization.
9 provinces where we can build settlements.
Government type gives:
2 SEC actions
1 Passive Policy
+1 SEC action per 2 provinces.
+1 Province Action per 2 provinces
+1 Passive Policy per 2 provinces
Economy type gives:
1 Passive Policy
+1 Passive Policy per 2 provinces
Given that we have 5 provinces at 6 settlements or higher, our number of [2 Provinces] is currently 2.
By the Civ page, this means we have:
2(Government Base)+2(Government Provinces)=4 SEC actions
2 (Government Provinces) Province Actions
1(Government base) + 1 (Economy Base) + 2 (Government Provinces) + 2 (Economy Provinces) = 6 Passive Policies.
Faction-wise, the Conservatives are adding +2 Passive Policies and the Monarchists are giving us another SEC action. Not sure why we have 4 SEC actions worth of Province Policy.
Also, we got +1 Passive Policy when Greenbay hit 12/15 Settlements.
Edit:
Passive Policies are currently X4 Agriculture, X2 Empire, X2 Infrastructure and X1 Forestry by the way, not X5 Agriculture.
This means Passive Policies give us +16 temp Econ, matching the -16 from having 4 non-Arthrynite subordinates consume 4 temp Econ each. Forluc and Forden might add another -8 Temp Econ because they aren't Arthrynites.
Econ Damage is -1 per 1 Province(5) due to Government, -1 per 1 Centralization(6) due to Economy, -1 from Palace and -2 from Census. Total of -14.

Some days, Cadlon Morgynys wondered by her predecessor had to upset so many of the Arthwyd Empire's more prominent groups. She could certainly understand why did it. The Caradysh Empire was fearsome and would almost certainly grow more fearsome in time, but the Arthwyd Empire could not afford to wage war against it. Not while the Arthwyd Empire still had to deal with the Cold.
The Cold had continued to lessen over the last generation and a good number of foolish commoners had decided to praise the goddesses for that. Fortunately, the local elements of the priesthood had bene good at stomping out such nonsense, quickly making sure that the uneducated knew that just as Arthryn and her Daughters had no control of the Cold getting worse, they had no control over it getting better.
The Cold might have lessened, but Cadlon Calwyn could not have known that when she made her decision and even then, Morgynys has her doubts about if the Arthwyd Empire could currently match for the Caradysh Empire. Maybe once the Cold has completely gone and their people have had some time to prepare...
As it is, the Arthwyd Empire is not ready for a war with a peer power, at least not one that they share a border with. Too many settlements along the Cursed Forest remain unwalled while the numbers of the Catclaws and Cateyes are too few to match the sheer amount of undead that the Caradysh have.
Perhaps all of the Arthwyd Empire's sacred warriors might be a match for whatever this Cadlon Morgyn can muster, but that would be impossible. Not to mention that Morgynys lacks confidence in the Arthwydish ability to deploy its military forces in a way that can properly match the sheer numbers of the Caradysh...
No. It does not matter how many of her fellow priestesses are upset about not doing something about the evil Caradysh. For all its strength, the Arthwyd Empire simply isn't in a position to match the Caradysh Empire right now.
At least that Cadlon Morgynys hopes that is the case and that she and Cadlon Calwyn have not made the wrong choice like so many of their detractors have been claiming...
The last generation had been one of upheaval for the Arthwyd as they adapted to once again being introduced to the wider world. Despite many others desiring otherwise, Cadlon Calwyn had refrained from going to war with the newly discovered Caradysh Empire and that was not her only controversial decision nor perhaps the most controversial since it could reasonably be reversed in future generations.
While it could not be denied that the Cernn had become some degree of civilised in their absence from the rest of the Arthwyd Empire, few agreed with the Cernn self-assessment that they were civilised. Yet despite the many protests from those felt that for the Cernn had improved, they had yet to become fully civilised.
It was certainly impressive how far they had come, especially under such trying circumstances, but that did not mean they had come all the way. It was understandable they had no Catclaws or Cateyes and relied on a militia instead, but that did not make them civilised. Likewise with how they valued warfare too much. Being willing to defend your community was something worthy of respect, but the Cernn still put too much behind someone's martial prowess, something which was certainly barbarian and not at all civilised, made all the worse by their lack of any sacred warriors.
Ultimately, Cadlon Calwyn ignored all of those protests to the shock of many and formally embraced the Cernn as a civilised part of the Arthwyd Empire. The Cernn was certainly pleased and even as so many disapproved of Cadlon Calwyn's decision, they obeyed it for she was the Cadlon and she had spoken.
Yet many within the Arthwyd Empire now question just how wise and infallible the Cadlon of the Arthwyd truly is. They may be the highest mortal representative of Arthryn and her Daughters but does mean that they cannot make mistakes or be questioned.
Cadlon Calwyn's legacy was not completely controversial as the Cadlon of the Arthwyd did make one popular major decision in her reign and that was to accept the remnants of the Forluc Empire into the Arthwyd Empire on the condition that the Forlucans gave up their slaving ways. It was not an easy thing to accomplish, but things were dire enough amongst the Forluc that giving up what few slaves they had left was not that big of a deal. In an act of quick thinking, the Forlucan Farkas quickly leveraged the condition into a demand for additional aid and resources to aid with the process of removing slavery and with their plenitude of reserved strength, the Arthwyd were more than happy to agree.
Yet not of the interesting events were happy in the south. Along the North Coast, the Merntir had rumours of hidden woes and terrible secrets lurking in the dark, but nothing got officially reported and there was no substance to the rumours beyond what the Leddlon had already reported to the Cadlon and was being dealt with. It certainly sounded unpleasant on the North Coast, but without anything to act upon, there was little that the rest of the Arthwyd Empire could do to help the situation.
Fortunately, the news from the Western Coast was much better. The Garnlon proudly reported to Greenbay that the Grythwyd had finally managed to properly domesticate the griffins native to the Western Coast. Part of it was due to the hard work of the Grythwyd, but partially due to the Cold driving the griffins into the arms of the Grythwyd as the Arthwydish had food that the griffins were struggling to find elsewhere.
The Grythwyd were not sure of what to do with the griffins and neither were the rest of the Arthwyd. For now, their purpose within Arthwydish society seemed to be pets and beasts of labour if you could get a griffin to be cooperative enough.

You've got griffins. You haven't figured how to ride them or do much with them yet, but you got them. Otherwise nothing especially interesting has happened. You got an uneasy peace with the Caradysh Empire, the Forluc have submitted to the Arthwyd Empire with minimal fuss and spooky things continue to happen along the North Coast.
Please point out any spelling or grammar mistakes that you spot. Please quote them in the thread and explain what you think is wrong so I know what you are referring to. Feel to ask questions for more details and information.
[X] [Forluc] In addition to demanding submission, Arthwyd Empire will require the Forlucans will have to cease their slaving ways. (-20 Temp Econ, -20 Temp Mystic, Gain the Forluc as a vassal, Gain the Forden as a vassal, both the Forluc and the Forden abolish slavery in their lands, ???)

You've got griffins. You haven't figured how to ride them or do much with them yet, but you got them. Otherwise nothing especially interesting has happened. You got an uneasy peace with the Caradysh Empire, the Forluc have submitted to the Arthwyd Empire with minimal fuss and spooky things continue to happen along the North Coast.
Please point out any spelling or grammar mistakes that you spot. Please quote them in the thread and explain what you think is wrong so I know what you are referring to. Feel to ask questions for more details and information.

Seriously, of all the people who'd be upset about this? Really, really?
So, a couple factions want to go to war with the Caradysh within a few turns. Unfortunately, short of extraordinary events, we'll just have to tank the failure penalties.
Instead, we should further thaw relations; that way, the factions, and our people in general might be swayed away from their current demand. The main Arthwyd government will have to force the issue: Diplomatic Expedition or Trade Expedition to start things going. The narrative: since war is not an option, best to pursue peace; and the best way to pursue peace is to start talking and trading.
Also, the Caradysh would be a great help in investigating the Youkai and Merntir "hidden woes", having been maxing out on magic since time immemorial.
...
@UwU If they think the Caradysh are, like, "ultimate evil" bandits, then it kinda sorta makes sense. In reality, the traders stand to benefit a lot from Caradysh markets, and we can jumpstart this realization by Trade Expedition.

The narrative: since war is not an option, best to pursue peace; and the best way to pursue peace is to start talking and trading.
Also, the Caradysh would be a great help in investigating the Youkai and Merntir "hidden woes", having been maxing out on magic since time immemorial.

@UwU If they think the Caradysh are, like, "ultimate evil" bandits, then it kinda sorta makes sense. In reality, the traders stand to benefit a lot from Caradysh markets, and we can jumpstart this realization by Trade Expedition.
