Since Land of Opportunity makes us look like an attractive option to join, does it essentially force us to either suffer a stability drop by accepting large amounts of people or accept a stability drop for denying them?
You can get into situations where you have a chance at a stability drop for refusing refugees, or a guaranteed one for accepting large numbers. Generally you will have a spectrum.
What would be the repercussions of using military force in order to bring people back in line? Would it be against our nature?
It would have a chance of triggering a stability tantrum spiral, but not necessarily. Depends on why force is being used.
Speaking of which
@Academia Nut does Pioneering Spirit activate
everytime we get a drop in stability or only when it goes into the negative?
It activates every time there is a stability drop. Fortunately you currently don't have it.
can you tell us what social values the nomads had? We incorporated an entire tribe of them so we have a solid source for knowledge regarding their customs and beliefs.
The nomads have, relative to the People, a higher emphasis on the following values:
- The honouring of given word and deals
- Ties of family
- Fighting as a means of social advancement
- The glory of battle
- The importance of the defense of weaker members of your in-group
Was she originally a male who felt like she was a female? The line about having "an excess of souls" may have been how our elders interpreted the issue. It might also explain why Mythwyn keeps mentioning how something feels off about Dellgyna.
@Academia Nut, can you let me know if I'm right?
Maybe... I mean, if there were a term for non-gender conforming people in certain cultures that used reference to a person having more than one soul or spirit for me to draw upon as a reference, then that interpretation would certainly make sense.
(seriously, just seven warriors?! Was that really all we got for teaching them farming?)
You didn't teach them much, and those seven were sent to assess the situation. There has since been further trade and contact.
can we gain any land from fighting Dead Priests? Or generally in lowlands?
If you began operating in the lowlands, you would have a strong claim to the territory down river from your valley settlements.
why isn't our Justice trait activating against the ST? Them messing with the dead is pretty strongly against our cultural mores.
It could evolve in that direction, but at the moment it is more "they are spooky" than "their ways are an active threat"
Ugh... apologies for the spaghetti, people ask me lots of questions while I sleep.
