I do not want honorable death. Is there some reason we can't re-roll for a new try at a ST trait though? It's not like the Honour Values are likely to be that much better...

This is incorrect- on stability drops our centralization drops in exchange for a boost in economy (and probably an automatic settlement). However, much of our strength is in our centralization, so I don't want this at all.

True, but is just isn't worth it. At all.
With Pioneering Spirit, it doesn't matter what we get as a benefit in terms of innovation or economy boost, the drop in stability always prompts social strife and societal change (via dropping centralization in case that wasn't clear) when we really don't need it.

Honourable Death could be useful if we somehow shifted it to 'honourable life' instead. Sync it even more in with Harmony.
Dunno how we'd do that.

Economy 8.
Uh, well then. This sounds like a good opportunity to start catching up militarily, or at least fort up to the point any aggression against us becomes a Famously Bad Idea. I mean, we've got a bit of that already, but turning the God Damn Mountain into Dwelf Fortress seems appropriate.

Not really? Since any Stability hit causes Centralization hits and that's what our Gov structure is based off of.
Yes, Just a little excited,
It means that we can Main Festival for Stability and Wall our Southern Valley Village and leave the other secondary for research projects.
@Academia Nut How are we on crowding in our villages and cities?

Admittedly we've been OOC told that they have a stargazing trait we keep getting denied by the dice.

Fuck if I know. My gut feeling is we need to turtle up and tech like mad so we can fight them off. I do think though, that sending them south won't actually help that much, definitely not more than getting in contact with the metal people would anyways

I'd say Survey land. We need to get metal tech going

It's really a question of which way we want to go. Do we go South East for rich land and pastures? Or do we go north for metal and trade?
That depends on what AN says about crowding, if isn't that much of a problem, we can Wall, Festival, and one free action.

Well, yeah, most plans we're making involve either Festival or Restore Harmony
BTW, here's a list of the traits we can get from the nomads. 3/5 is... acceptable odds, I guess. The bad ones are about as bad Honorable Death anyway.

Do not forget that our fishing is screwed over by distances; we need a new coastal village to be able to expand it.
But we definitely need to wall lower valley settlement, because Dead Priests, so...
Yeah, because, well, logistics.
On second thought, we can probably feed their whole army now, and repair their things, so logistics are less of a concern, but I still do not like the idea of letting nomads into our lands, where three unwalled settlements are.
They are all shit, at least specifically for our society.

Well, none of those really screw us, and Glory in battle isn't that much different than Honorable Death, so eh. The worst one to get out of those choices would be fighting as a means of social advancement, which would be..problematic

Whenever stability drops, centralization is consumed to fuel Econ growth. It's basically people going "Shit sucks here, I'm going to do my own thing" and walking off to do their own thing, while still remaining a part of the overall system.
Fay-gur-thin.
Pretty high, will be addressed during the next main turn, which I am not putting up because what favour you get from the nomads is going to massively influence what options you have for the next main turn.
