You've been ninjaed >l3
where?
I mean metal arrows, so that our black birds are even more killy.
why would that help more than poison and/or more stone arrows would? Copper is more expensive and less sharp than properly flaked rocks.

We're voting for Restore Order + Restore Order x 2 because it will result in a Main Restore Order, which we believe will synergize well with Main Blackbirds. It will additionally be a safer roll.

Edit: Study Metal @24. Restore Order @ 21. Restore Orderx2 @20.

Why are people going restore order x2 when metalworking will help all the things? I mean metal tools easer infrastructure, farming, buildings, metal weapons, armor, and so much more.
Because our infrastracture, farming, building, etc. are all doing fine without metal. It's our Stability that's in crisis, not Economy, and metal doesn't help with that. This is obvious.

Because on phone and edits don't work very well

Endemic corruption problem we've had hints and signs to for about ~10 turns that we are trying to solve. Plus there is the info that The Greater Good can proc off of Restore Order and the idea that they might merge and improve themselves.

Part because the last time we held onto a tech like this, we unlocked a megaproject to do it "properly," which I'm not prepared to commit to yet, and part because we'd end up at 1 Mysticism, which is a lot lower than is comfortable.

Also, a lot lower risk of Restore Order backfiring; I really want the anti-corruption edge from it, so I like it better as a second Main.
 
And there we have it.

but muh metal studies ;-; We should finish that so we can stop importing copper and just mine it ourselves.
Corruption breeds corruption; the later we start dealing with it, the harder (or even impossible) it will be.

Actually, about 'impossible': the longer we wait, the higher is the probability king becomes one of the corrupted.

Because we need blackbirds for policing, not killiness.

Like, the big thing people should remember is this: Corruption breeds corruption.
 
Hm....

I'm not against restore order enough that I want to run the risk of inadvertently taking only one with the vote mismatch. And the point about needing to keep mysticism high is a decent one. Ah, well. We can get copper another time, the opportunity cost is not so great and the synergy has merit.

False we've had corruption for several generations now and it has gotten worse because of Instability not the abstract metaphors. We are going to take action this turn anyway. Festival would stop the instability with zero risk of bringing us even further down.
 
Also for all the answering my question, all are true, I just want to get metal working out of the way. Also do we have plumbing?

Sorry, and very true, just want metal, easier to work with vs stone.
We're already getting metal imported in sufficient quantities. Having our own supply of metal and understanding of it is merely to shift away from being dependent. Additionally, a secondary-level action is not going to guarantee a satisfactory discovery. Nor does it guarantee a satisfactorily safe Restore Order action.

I feel like we have plumbing to dispose of waste, but considering that all of it goes to making black soil, it is equally likely that use chamberpots. We have a good understanding of how water works so we might be able to get it into easily accessible places, though... Idk. I'm leaning toward no for sewage but yes for water. But even for water we might just be using wells or something.

Study Metal: 25. Restore Order: 25. Restore Orderx2: 22. Festival: 20

Study Metal is the main one for me - I want to get Bronze.

Otherwise, gaining stability and assuaging concerns is also key.

Simply so we don't have a secondary restore order action, which is arguably worse than festivals or even sacrifice.
I will say I will heavily protest any action that doesn't have metal next turn, even if that means we don't expand to hills
