So if we go for 3 actions on rune metal part 3 we get 5 of the 10 needed down, putting us in striking range. That then lets us see how the situation changes next turn to figure out if we can afford to complete it or need to go and do Armed in Arms with 2 actions and using the favor and proc to finish it.
That would leave one action this turn which should be one of :
[ ] [Difficult] A Higher Standard Pt. 1: You've gazed upon the face of the Ancestors a lot in the past few years, especially when you were making your alchemical flame spitters, and it's inspired you. A banner to rally behind, something that dwarfs will look to and fight all the harder with it at their back. A banner worthy of the hold of Kraka Drakk, to be held aloft with pride by an equally worthy standard-bearer. [Cost: 1 action] If a rune you want requires special ingredients that you don't have access to I will alert you.
or
[ ] Odd Places 2/10: Look on Master Yorri's map and try and discover one of his marked locations. The locations will certainly be odd, but whether they'll be useful will remain to be seen. [Cost: 1 action] Roll for usefulness.
Basically I think we still have at least next turn to take actions, maybe two more turns. If we feel the pressure than
Current Turn (10)
[ ] The Rune Metal Pt. 3: The Gromril isn't pure, well metaphysically. You need to first devise a Rune or Runic array necessary to draw out the magical impurity from the Gromril itself before you can even begin to tackle the actual physical makeup of such a procedure. You're lucky there's a large body of Runework dedicated to removing or stopping magic cold in its unstable tracks, otherwise this would have taken far longer. Your gut tells you nevertheless, that nothing short of a Master Rune will cut it.[Cost: (12 -2) =10 Actions] Student of the Odd and Mind of Metal will proc.
-[] 3 actions (procing for +2 to 5 total)

Turn 11 (Next turn) If threat is imminent for turn 12
[ ] [Simple] Write in, Armed in Arms: You cannot give them all Gromril plate, the cost too ruinous even for a Runelord, but you can make quite the number of Runic weapons and equipment. With the aid of a few of the older masters to keep the youngsters in line, perhaps enough for the hold in its entirety. It would be a massive undertaking. Your beard twitches fiercely, you don't know when but something will happen before this next century is out. A lot of your work will be in actually coordinating the disparate smiths in the hold into something of a cohesive unit. [Cost: 4 actions.] Productivity Like No Other Will proc.
- [ ] Petition the Hold: Ask King Otrek and the Elder council for aid in managing the logistics of the project and incorporate it into his larger overall armament program. [Cost: 5 Favour with the Hold and King Otrek] Reduce total action cost by 1
-[ ] 2 actions (proc plus favor total 4 to finish)
[ ] Difficult Higher Standard pt 2
-[ ] 1 or 2 actions on this
