[X] Dispatch Kallias south to Metapontion, to gain allies, investigate the embezzlement tied to Lykai, and get a better read on the situation among the Italian Greeks and in Sicily, where it seems likely that the island's foremost tyrant will soon die.
-
-
[X] We cannot simply lay low all our allies when we see fit for the sake of empowering one man. He is capable, it is true, but the people of Rhyps have done nothing to deserve being turned over, and their fear keeps them well in line. There is little fear of them turning away from us, so why give Harpos a further boon so quickly?

-
[X] We shall open the Sacred Treasury this one time, for theconstruction of the stone wall is vital to the defence of the city. The funds taken out of the treasury will be repaid into it at a rate no less than 50 talents a year, on top of the10% annual tithe. With the additional funds available we will extend the wall to cover a largerarea so that we may account forthe city's growth, as well as the construction of a sea wall, to ward off naval raids and assault. [-320talents, wall will cover a larger area of the city, wall will protectthe shore and harbour, four turns to build, will draw from the SacredTreasury].

-
[X] We need to extend the wall to cover a larger area, so that we may account for the city's growth and plan it in a more orderly fashion. [-270 talents will cover a larger area of the city, three turns to build].
-
-
[X] We need to have the wall fortify the shore and harbour, so that we are protected against naval raids and assault. [-270 talents, wall will protect the shore and harbour, three turns to build].

-
[X] USER MOTION Harpos shall be King of the Peuketti, but at the hand of Eretria. He shall be elevated in a ceremony at Eretria a year hence, allowing him time to address the fears of the people of Rhyps, where he will reswear his oaths of allegiance in his new role, even as Rhyps swears to him. It will also allow him to reassure himself as to the welfare of his children guesting in the city.
-
-
[X] Dispatch Kallias east to Hellas, in the face of growing Korinthian trade in the Adriatic and their needling of the Kerkyrans. If need be, get some kind of assurance that Athens will come to Eretria's aid if Korinthos goes to war, negating their naval advantage.
-
-
[X] Dispatch Kallias north to Arimnus and then on foot throughout Padanian Etruria on the road to Atria to build allies against a potential Liburnian incursion, as they are growing bolder every year and could potentially strike at Eretria.
-
-
[x] We need to thicken the wall to make it impervious to all comers and so that we may store grain in its cavities. [-270 talents, wall will be thicker and extend the ability's to hold out against siege for one year, three turns to build].
-
-
[X] One King among the Peuketii, one steady hand to deal with, one whelp to crush. What do we care for the fears of the meek in the face of the strong? Harpos has shown himself an extremely capable ruler who is willing to rebuff the Dauni. We can find no such friends among the people of Rhyps, whose only advantage is they cower before us.

-
[X] The wall must cover a larger area so we can plan for future growth, but it must also protect our shore and harbor against naval attacks. To fund the wall we withdraw funds from the Sacred Treasury, with the understanding that those funds are being used to cover a military emergency brought on by the presence of the Korinthoi threat and Liburnian piracy. [-320 Talents, including 33.3 from Sacred Treasury]
-
-
[X] We need to build the wall right to begin with. Let us use the Sacred Treasury to build a wall that befits the glory of Eretria, grand enough to impress the whole world! Extend the wall over a large area, fortify the shore and harbour, and thicken it to store grains. [-370 talents, five turns to build].
-
-
[X] USER MOTION - The Sacred Treasury shall be opened for the purpose of paying for a sea wall to be added to the chosen variant of stone wall in this one instance; any talents taken from the treasury shall be paid back into the treasury at a rate not less than 75 talents (or the remaining balance) a year on top of the 10% tithe from gross income.
