Once the Lower Stairs are done you're in the Underhold and get all the Underhold options including prospecting.

l like your plan but l have slightly edit. 1 Beardling Dicemoved from stairs to fortify pass and stonemason there has been changed to make 2 on runecrafting. with a great chance of stairs finishing l really really hate to see overkill there but haveing that could shield there would be needed but im a gambler so yea. as l; said no problem with base plan thats why l stole it
ps placed my origin plan below the plan im voting for just so there some things to compare to. also was not completed just a preview

It's not just for hall space, but also additional prospecting opportunities. The more area we dig out underground the more area the Miners can prospect.
The Lower level Hallways would be better for that but I'm sure making the Underhold deeper would have positive effects.

I originally only had one miner on the stairs, I switched it up because I really don't want to fail on the stairs this turn but I think the edited version is totally fair.l like your plan but l have slightly edit. 1 Beardling Dicemoved from stairs to fortify pass and stonemason there has been changed to make 2 on runecrafting. with a great chance of stairs finishing l really really hate to see overkill there but haveing that could shield there would be needed but im a gambler so yea. as l; said no problem with base plan thats why l stole it
I hadn't considered that but it is worth checking with Warkeymon I think.
@Warkeymon Does starting the underhold at a deeper level offer any advantages when prospecting/mining or does it just give more hall space?

Starting the Underhold deeper just gives the Hold more space.
And makes it easier to build an Underway to join up with the rest of the network later.
Adding another 2 levels would only be an additional 20, still very likely to finish.
Nevermind on that then. I still think getting the Lower Hallways done soonish is still a good call for prospecting the other Peaks and under the valley.

Ah yes, just as soon as we develop the Master Rune of Interdimensional Travel we can connect up to Karaz Ankor.
I did initially want to go for hallways to under the valley but I shifted over to the runecrafting hall as it seems more immediately useful. It's hard to know what's necessary until we get access to the underhold mechanics. If you want to do a plan with hallways go for it, it is a valid thing to do I think.

Given how the surface training ground gave bonuses to combat above ground I'm expecting the training hall to do similar for tunnel fighting which doesn't seem super important to me right now. They can train beardlings in the above ground area for now. I do want to get it as something the Leadbeards/throng want built but it's a second level priority for me rather than an immediate one.

By the way about runes, may I suggest we put a rune of slowness on all of the passes?
Sure it will take a while and only the south one is urgent, but it seems very strong, and will combine perfectly with our shooting.
For the rune of passage I suggest the west or east, if we are lucky we could trade with rivendell or the bear people (higly unlikely) or with Erebor if we are lucky.
Sure a daugther is fine, but I do not think we should stop at one, to secure the line I would say to make at least three (boys or girls).
Also considering the three one balance it seems pretty responsible, heck five wouldn't really sound bad to me and would send the message of having many children.
About queens, yes they are rare but there was some exception in the lore of queens essentialy ruling or coruling either from the relativly shadow or by simply convincing the king to go drink rather than govern, considering the circumstances and the fact that there will never be other royal dawi we could easly say something along the line of there is no worthy husband (whic isn't really a stretch depending on where we are in the timeline).
This could appease the conservative members and put Kar on the trhone whilst not ignoring estabilished lore, whic to me sounds better than simply ignoring part of it.

Runes crafted in the Karaz Ankor should continue to work. They are already filled with Magic and unless they require a continuous supply of Winds to function (which I do not think is really that common), they should remain unfazed by the change. I am talking about creating new Runes, here in this place.

I kinda assumed runes are constantly being drained to perform their effect and recharging off ambient winds. If not I guess we'll find out next turn. OOC I'm pretty confident Warkeymon wouldn't have given us runesmiths and a runelord as options during the throng creation if they were useless.

That's a valid point there, going to check that out.
For now, our Runesmith still is physically making the Rune. Filling it with Magic is the last part of the process. It will be obvious for him by then, whether can he finish it or not.

So assuming the rune finishes this time and it works what do we want Gutfroy on next? My thoughts on a few of the options:
Overall I think I lean toward the shield or doing the crossbow this turn with a plan to do the shield once we have the runecrafting hall up.
Probably not next turn, 40% chance to fail is very high best to wait for the rune hall to be done before we start on this.
Reasonable chance and it's only one turn, if we think we can complete the hall next turn this might be the way to go.
If we are willing to spend the ingots this seems like a solid way to go, something that can protect a chunk of the throng would be very nice given our relatively low numbers mean every life matters
I don't think this is worth it until we have some kind of trade partner or a reason to be coming and going from the hold in one direction regularly.
An antimagic effect over the whole hold seems incredibly useful for when/if we anger one of the big players but I'm not sure if it is an immediate need.
