Oh, I think Murphy would approve. If there's an emergency next turn, our choices will likely be decided for us, so that's simple. But if there's not, we risk being divided and distracted by the many excellent choices on offer. At worst, we may get another shiny that will make everyone forget long-term plans. I'm anticipating that and discussing now, while we're not so distracted.
Well, personally I'd rather build the March, but coordinate it with them in some way, since they're living in that area. But the salt gift does make sense if we want them to be allies and not yet another threat.
no, AN said that there are still nomad friends, who have formed a new coalition under a survivor from the old friendlies and "Forgotten who the 'Salt people' are"
we might not be able to if we're still at war next turn
Kinda poopy we will probably have to deal with the stupid Hathy. <- Chibi!YmarynVampire voice.So, with this vote seemingly settled, we should probably make plans for next turn in light of the latest information, but before AN throws us another shiny
I figure we probably have a breather. Hath fight will likely continue as is, but with no current nomad threat (yay for peaceful contact with old friends!), we have a chance to properly reinforce the north. And we have to burn Econ and Martial. So... maybe this is a chance to really get benefits from Defensive policy? And being at war, that should be a free switch.
We could also either build the NE March - perhaps integrating the nomads in some way? - or partially integrate West Wall while it isn't threatened. March might be better, because the integration boosts Econ and Martial, which are too high ATM. And another March = more actions!
I expect we'll need the remaining action for a main war against the Hath. Whether that's enough will depend on whether we can indeed build better walls, whether we still have a hero King, and what the HK manage to do to the Hath before then. We have lots of Martial, though, so main war should be pretty effective regardless.
What other thoughts do people have?
I doubt it. Cow pleasuring required three actions of increase pasture.
... The response to 'this killed my Mystic Hero' is to feed more grist to the mill?
Sure. It even makes sense once you rephrase the response as "our Mystic Hero died to give us this opportunity".... The response to 'this killed my Mystic Hero' is to feed more grist to the mill?
If we stopped doing a thing because it killed one person this would be a vastly different quest and world.... The response to 'this killed my Mystic Hero' is to feed more grist to the mill?
I'm trying to think of an equivalent situation and coming up blank. Heroes are special existences and don't tend to fail often... A-ha! Got one.
We didn't get the option to do that and I'm sure that someone would have voted for it if we had.
Perhaps we can avoid the CoT maluses by trading our fine dyes like this.Guys we have widespread hair dye now!
Unless it's crow feathers, I'm not interested.Guys we have widespread hair dye now!
