Taking time to prepare does not completely mean pacifism.
If we know where their canons are stationed we might have higher chance of driving them of.
furthermore we need a Casus beli stand on the right side of the law.

With all due respect, we have been told that the effects of such actions will fire this turn, without having to wait for the next. That includes finding and justifying any casus belli. It also includes actions which would modify any engagement.

I stand corrected.

That was the point I was making. We should prepare before doing everything at the same time.

Yellow Alert is an order to hold off on starting hostility, while obviously patrolling and preparing other things

If we fail Yellow Alert then they will probably be the agressor without a Casus beli.

The revolution will seem more legitimate starts when the elite start to beat up peaceful protestors instead of the other way around.

Or failing it results in our people acting violently and giving the nobles a casus belli. Or it means the majority of our forces get wiped out because we failed to organize them, meaning things are pretty much doomed. Or it might have one of dozens more potential negative consequences. It's unlikely that failing anything will actually result in something good for us, so to assume that is kinda silly.
 
I believe starting a civil war that could spin out of control in an uncertain direction or result in the weakened country by conquered and divided by its neighbors when a reasonable chance of a peace outcome is still on the table would not serve the people well.

Does anyone voting for my vote wish me to change it? For example, I could cut out noble assurances in favor of doubling down on Yellow Alert plus a minor boon.

THE ORIGIN OF SPECIE MONTH 7 ROLL CALL
  • Apocrypha
    • Alright, let's call it here. Plan Water the Tree of Liberty wins, 10 - 9 - 5.

    The Sword is a sword that grows stronger the more magically powerful you are. That means that it adds Piety/5 to Base Martial. No Upper limit.

    This thing is pretty seriously powerful - in a real sense, it's your first item that really belongs in the category of high-tier gear.

    Roll me 7d100s.

    Martial: With a Bang: DC: 28. Base Stat: 18 + 0.4 + 3 + 4.6 + 1. Cost: 0 Budget.
    Diplomacy: Diplomatic Justifications: DC: 27. Base Stat: 20 + 3 + 1. Cost: 2 Budget.
    Intrigue: Sabotage: DC: 28. Base Stat: 22 + 3 + 1 + 1. Cost: 2 Budget.
    Learning: Mapping Enemy Forces: DC: 15. Base Stat: 21 Cost: 0 Budget.
    Stewardship: Finding a Cause: DC: 25. Base Stat: 23 + 1. Cost: 0 Budget.
    Piety: The Oskaria Realignment: DC: 26. Base Stat: 23 + 1. Cost: 0 Budget.

    • Son of a bitch, those first three rolls are utter shit. Bare pass for some and a failure in Diplo, I think?

    Why can't that 98 learning roll happen for that Diplo, dammit.
     
    It has been a while since I rolled so... RER time~

    Post-Roll: That's... good?
    Vocalend threw 1 100-faced dice. Reason: Random Event is Random Total: 78
    78 78

    Ok, cool, looks like I absorbed all the negative energy that was hanging around the thread and made everyone else's roll succeed.

    You're welcome! :V

    An entire mound of silver coinage and other treasures, buried beneath hill. Many of them had been ruined by the explosion, but some were still good - though admittedly, the mad scramble for the treasure by the militia meant that you could only really grab one thing before you got it out.

    Choose One.
    [] [Loot] Money
    Money is always at a premium in your profession, especially money that you can use to help fund your continuing operations.
    [] [Loot] Robes
    This robe shimmers with a magic, an enchantment weaved upon it that seems like it could be used to help either infiltration or diplomacy. Moreover...it seems to respond to the touch of your own personal magic, somehow.
    [] [Loot] Sword
    This sword is obviously magical. You couldn't possibly avoid the conclusion if you wanted to, and simply approaching it makes it clear that it draws deeply from the wielder.
    [] [Loot] Chest
    Of course, that makes this chest jump out to you all the more. What could possibly be so valuable that whoever had set up this hoard had locked it into a box that screamed the contents were more valuable than even the sword and the robes?

    Can we acquire anymore of these items via actions/money? So we could steal them, purchase them, trade them for favors, ect. Given that we attacked it with peasent militia, they're likely to sell them anyway.
