My personal favourite is the art alley, but the amphitheater is also cool if you want something that's quicker.

I mean, I'm okay with it, but wouldn't that create a cultural specialty, like Blue Light District last turn?
@HeroCooky, would you mind marking the options which will cause specialization specifically?
You know what, I'm just going to throw in the Simple Hospital. It's cheap and we need it.
Mortars swapped in, Adventurers removed.

You should probably toss in some advanced weapons artefacts, of which we have a ton. The only one you should save is the anti-avian shock plates since I proposed a tech for them.

These options have a [•••] District in their reward section, first sentence.
It's going to be 2 Turns/6 months before the expedition starts and we don't know how long the fighting is going to last. It could easily be a year until we get any loot from that. Feels a bit too long to purely rely on that, especially with the invisi-text during the last update.
Oh, I fully expect it to be used as a slur. But I don't think anyone literally thinks of Mutated as Mutants, because everyone's first thought upon seeing a Mutant is probably something like "Oh Emperor, it's going to eat me!".
We also currently can't do that Action because of the Goodwill cost of 15. We only have 14.41 Goodwill.
We probably should do a write-in Action to talk with the other noble Houses. It was mentioned that a change of the law would need at least a petition by House Tessen and another noble House.
@HeroCooky Could this work as an Action to talk/find out how to bribe the other nobles into supporting a re-working of the laws?
Diplomacy: Trading Favors
While a favor owed to you by the ruling House of a vital trading Region within the Empire can do much, overturning Ordinance #326b-S and #14-VV7 will need more. To be specific, the support of either House Mirn or Ularn, optimally both. You just need to find out what would convince them to support your petition!
...Yeah, you're going to ask Lady Maranica.
(Cost: Favors with Noble Houses?, Artefacts?, etc.
Chance: ???
Reward: Further Support for clarifying/changing the laws. Boosted Chances for "Lady Tessen? About Our Favor..."
Oh, and I have been looking over some of the older projects. Is "A Home away from Home" creating a local base we can upgrade later? The Upkeep reduction of 0.10 Materials is not enough for even one in Mirn to be worth it, so I wondered if it's something we just have to upgrade once we have a base. A local administration center or something to further reduce the upkeep.
And looking into some of the folders(Member/Resource Statistics), it seems the Engine Assembly under Upkeep lacks -0.50 (Due to Backroom Deals).
I think this would fall under the Support Action "The Military - (War Lessons)"?
Uhh, Aria gets only one Action per Turn?

Remaining budget:538.01 Materials - 533.49 Materials = 4.52 Materials
Ok, that would leave me with 2 [ENG] leftover.
@HeroCooky What would it cost us to hire the Huntsmen for the expedition? The last time I asked (Page 113) it was 20 Materials upfront for 25 mercs. So for the 80 Huntsmen around 60 Materials?
And what would be the price for armor made by the Forge-Clans for Aria? Something she can wear while piloting PD.
Edit: Updated the costs and added the last Faith Action. If people want I can make the loan bigger and up-armor the DoD even more.

think in timeframes of decades instead of months when it comes to laws
we have about 20-40 turns wich should be roughly 5-10 years (each turn is roughly a quarter of a year) for changing that law
yeah it sucks
but we gotta do things sustainable,we have other things to handle too

That's exactly what the second/third/unique fourth level will do. The first is only abour laying down the groundwork for later steps.
Good catch, fixed that right up!
It does, I didn't notice it until now.
50. They'll be actually happy if they get to kill some Eversuns.
Just for her? 5.34 Materials to get a 4/4 Armor with +1 health and 26% chance to survive PD being destroyed.

That's not what that martial action is trying to accomplish though.
I want the royal guard to train the unbroken to 5/6 training - is that doable?
HeroCooky
Unverified Monstergirl
No. Any training beyond 3 requires specialized facilities like militaries use today to train elite forces, with a level 5 training straight up killing (Unit Number X 25%) while doing so.
Raising the level through combat is much easier.

I am pretty sure I missed, like, 40% of all mentioned characters, so...Man, this quest is something else. Look how many characters there are, and I'm gonna be adding more!
She's like... 55-ish? 60? She got married when she was 24, had her first kid that year, and became a grandmother 17 years later.
Given PD's history with her past pilots, she would probably prefer Aria to get that armor.
And we got a new Diplomacy option:
Now, should I do this instead of infiltrating the Lost or could it wait until the next Turn, after we got the permission to open asylums?

Ok then, anyone have an idea for 2hat to use our martial action for? 'Cause I have no idea.
Shouldn't be necessary at all. My plan gets us a 97% chance of success without it on Lady Tessen's favour. As to the lost, I think it's a good idea to spend a turn or two investing in psych first.

Create a new unit while most of our existing units are gone? Scout a location in the forest we can clear next Turn before the expedition begins? Attack a location in the Forest? Do some mercenary work?
And that's why this quest is great, the world just feels so lived in.
I thought she was in her late 30s, wild.
Wait
Wait!
Does she still fight? Does grandma go to underground fighting rings and beat the crap out of people 30 years younger? The more I learn about her, the more I love Lady Maranica.
I would suggest scouting a location so we can attack it once our units return. That or the menagerie if there's enough money for it.

Hell yeah! She's gotta defend her title!
(Also, she is biologically closer to 30 than 60, due to genetic tampering before the Collapse prolonging human life.)

--[] This unit specializes in assisting The Wall in clearing out occupied artefact grounds. Where The Wall acts as a stalking horse, The Troubleshooters focus on raining death without ever being seen.
Alright, adding this in for my martial action. If anyone sees a problem, let me know.

In doubt there's always the Sun!
I have idea, probably not a original idea but how about supply some of our tech to the military? The obstacle and armored stealth suits would be of some use and we can get training with them strengning out ties, having a direct line is also usefull when the pilgrims are generally the first responders when something crawls out of the forest of rust.
Like a donation? I guess it depends, I guess the army and the goverment probably won't like it if it seems like they are depending on handouts from a cult.
If we develop something they want they'll probably come to us with a contract to sell them the stuff.
My only suggestion would be to give them something more close-range than a spear, but we don't have any so I'm not going to complain.
