On Thread Etiquette:

I'm not going to weigh in on the logic of either side's arguments, but I will ask that everyone read over what they write and really consider if the words they used are polite and won't be inflammatory intentionally or not. You cant account for people's tolerances perfectly but at least try to say your piece without saying things that can be easily construed as overly dismissive of the other side of the argument, thank you.

Please endeavour to be cordial. :^)

Any plans with these 3 actions?
I am looking but it seems not... :(
Asking in case I'm actually just blind.

[ ] March [Cost: 1 action] Gain possible loot, bonus to roll against Fimir. No actual interlude but combat rolls will still be made. The idiots decide they want to tear open a hole in reality do they? You razed three cities already, and you're not one to leave a job half finished.

[ ] The Road to Anoqeyån Pt. 2: [Cost: 6 actions] Master of the Odd will proc. Gain exceptional- understanding of Anoqeyån. Now that Menlinwen has taught you the very fundamentals of the Elven arcane language, she feels comfortable enough to begin teaching you to the same level she has reached. Going any further beyond this point requires waiting for Menlinwen to become an Archmage or for you to find one yourself.

[ ] Training Regime Pt. 2: [Cost: (2 +4) =6 retainer actions] Gain "Hearthwarden Warrior" Training Standard and Category, some existing classes will be absorbed into the new category. The last phase of Rudil's training program involves creating a unified set of skills that would be expected of a "Hearthwarden Warrior." Incorporating skills and traits in the same way that the Rangers had done.

No plan so far uses any of these actions.

---[X] Choose: Combo, Flamedrinking: [Rune of Thungni's Presence, Rune of Thungni, Rune of Forgeflame]
--[X] Write-In: Aetherbinder Pt. 1 [1 Heir]
---[X] The Aetherbinder "Zhuffbarazen (lit. Torrent Binding)", Talisman: This device is a series of plates and metal loops linked together by adamant chains that fits over a dwarven arm, either armored and unarmored. When at rest the adamant construction seems to be a kind of decoration or a piece of very sturdy dwarf jewelry and it is marked by a wonderful knotwork pattern of a forge and the implication of a smith working at the anvil in the background. However, when active it is most clearly not decoration. This device is a tool for the manipulation of heat and magic and runic energy in battle and in acts of creation. Three depressions are present in its design, the first near the shoulder contains the Master Rune of Purification - glowing black as night when active. The second lays just below the elbow, and the third upon the back of the hand, and these contain the rune of Worldly Warding and Ancestor Rune of Thungni respectively. The light of the runes shimmers in the heat of the forge and the glow of Magick.
---[X] Choose: Master Rune of Purification (T4 Voidstone) + Rune of Worldly Warding (T4 Ancient Stone Troll Blood) + Ancestor Rune of Thungni (T4 Adamant). The theme idea is "I will Endure the Flow, I will Resist it, I will Shape it and what I cannot use I will Burn Away."

--[X] [Difficult] Starlight Pt. 1 [1 Heir]
---[X] Brightcaller: This is the greathammer of Clan Skarridum, a weapon also known as Brynlidha and Brighttongue. In structure it is entirely Adamant (you learned your lesson with Zharrgal), with the metal haft wrapped in Wutroth native to Dorden's territory, sourced from the Plumbeards' groves and decorated with gems retrieved from Dorden's depths. These gems are cut to resemble eyes and are set into lines cut down to the Adamant which imply the faces of the ancestors of Thane Morglum, their names upon their foreheads in the Aldrhun script. You have kept it simple and personal, because this is a gift to this boy and his family, thus the message shall be most clear to him and his. The hammer head is a cylinder of Adamant that tapers into a truly wicked sharp warspike and prybar. He is a warrior and this is not the hammer of a maker, so the striking face of the hammer is marked with grooves and ridges to concentrate force into a grid of focused points, points which should leave a blinding trail of shining lights by the power of the Runes when the hammer is swung. The Runes will be set into stars of Adamant connected by knotwork in a rendition of the constellation of The King's Hammer. The three brightest stars in that constellation will glow a beautiful gold and the rest are Pure Gromril polished to shine, left blank so that they may be inscribed with the names of the mightiest foes the Thane defeats in battle.

Minor formatting things. Need to have a Subvote choosing what runes we're using with Flamedrinking. And Combo, Constellations does not technically exist - what that was trying to convey was the name I wanted for it if does come together.

Dreng is cool but I'm not interested in fight stuff at the moment since we're probably going to war and I'll get my fill of that then. So, ergo, branabuddies and checking in on Nain.

[x] [Letters:] Knowledge about Nagarythe [Insightful]

Because after a quick wiki perusal about WTF Nagarythe is turns out they fight a lot of chaos and are thus relevant to Snorri's interests.

[x] [Grimgal:] Accept.

Yes. Must fight alongside our grandnoodle.

[X] Plan: Glorious Vision, Help Ornsmotek and Support Grimgal

Not examining the hammer seems very foolish, so gotta vote for a plan that has that.

I won't be upset if Go All Out wins, because it would be good to fortify the Anvil, but I'd rather make something that we can safely make available for projects other than our own:

[X] Plan: Public Utility
-[X] [Location:] Within Khazagar. -1 total actions to Gronti-Bay. Benefits from the Rune of Siphoning. Skaudardrengi will be built within Khazagar, expanding your workshop to accomodate.
-[X] [Scope:] Dedicated General Facility. +2 actions to Gronti-Bay. Every 3 request actions building Monumental Items add 1 extra progress. A workshop space dedicated to the construction of anything the size of Skaudardrengi.
-[X] [Runes:] Do Both. +3 actions. Double reagent cost for Skaudargrengi's Runes (not including equipment). Gain an improved variant of The Master Runes of Waking for monument-scale Gronti that would cost at minimum double the reagents. Oh sure Klausson, go whole hog, you idiot.
 
[X] Plan: A Crack In The Consternation (Turn 58)

It'll really help out with our research as well as Snorri's own path that he wants to walk which feels narratively fitting.

"We cannot grow without challenge, but we are not so foolish as to go as we are," Grimgal continues, "have prepared for this extensively."

"It's true," Izgrom adds, "Zharrok made my rocks into her armour."

" 'Forged,' Izgrom, the word is 'forged.' I forged sister armour from the ore you passed to me," he corrects

"Made, Forged, they work the same."

"They are not, and you know that. One is more specific."

"Why pick a word that works for only one thing? A word for everything would be best."

"You're doing this on purpose—"

As the brothers descend into quiet squabbling, Grimgal continues to stare at you both expectantly.
God damn this gave me an honest to god laugh. This reminds me of that fucking picture with the dwarf miners and the dragon Soulcake dropped into media ages ago!
