I mean no, but at the same time that just means more chances to do amazing things!

This is the French Revolution, ain't it? As Robespierre said, it launched the French a thousand years above every other country, so that means we'll get a thousand years worth of problems!

Well since you asked for a thousand problems, here is a single roll prepared for the upcoming results.
This is a single roll, for one of the actions, out of order.
Hope you like the beginning of pain.

The assignats finally reach rock bottom and the country goes into even more economic chaos?

This is for you and the Army, not for France.
In fact, France's economy is doing okay, despite the shit that Albion is doing.
Um... Okay, I'm going to make something very clear.
Calm down.
This was unmodified.
If it were negative, shit would go very bad.
Like suicide attempt bad.
Or assassination.
Or kidnapping.
Or some other, very horrific event that would be very uncomfortable to write. Proboly not rape, because I think there are lines that I will never cross when writing.
And I wrote an entire update about a nazi war criminal executing generals in a kangaroo court.

There is only one solution to this, everyone, PRAY TO MARIE-LOUISE SUETTE! HER INFINITE HOTNESS SHALL REVERSE THE DICE INTO A 700!

Or you can use the massive stockpile of omake bonuses for your benefit?
Also, I haven't seen you write an omake in awhile, lacking ideas?
It still sounds like a failed action. With the way you said it anyway. Which basically means we need bonuses but no idea how much.

Oh yeah, I keep forgetting that, alright, you guys can use it to turn it into a 57 or whatever, go crazy.
I do have omake ideas, just not sure how to implement them. I was thinking of having the Rock, Stone Cold and Chris Jericho as the army of the Vendee's representatives on mission, but its hard to write with the proper amount of absurdity it requires.

I will accept the bonuses when the bonus accepting is open.
not before and not after.
I would still read the hell out of it.
Also the Vendee has been quelled right now.

A more sombre one I had is where Brian keeps his father's rusty old flintlock. Napoleon asks why he keeps something that is probably too old and rusty to be used only to be met with Brian reminiscing about his father and his childhood, alongside Napoleon mentioning his troubled relationship with his father, who died when he was just a kid.

Well if Thérèse ever gets bored of the army she could become an inventor.

I mean, she's smart enough and driven enough to be anything she wants.

Plus having a reroll on Intelligence rolls certainly helps.

Intelligence does not always equal wisdom. Napoleon was a pretty smart fellow, but his hypothetical plan of sending the Royal Navy on a wild goose chase around the ocean showed he wasn't really all that wise when it came to naval affairs.

Nitpick. The Dutch and Americans can. Just maybe not in the late 18th/mid-19th Century.
