Did I miss something or are we not treating the rock as too important? Its only supposed to be a secondary objective. Whether we fort up or not, I don't think the shiny rock should be the primary consideration for our choice.

For what it's worth, this secondary objective represents the equivalent of enough Plutionium to make an atomic bomb. It's really only secondary because strategic-level concerns take a back seat to not party-wiping here.

Cai Renxiang's misgivings wrought no hesitation. Whatever her thoughts, she did not intend to leave Ling Qi unsupported. Cifeng's sheath unspooled, shimmering thread revealing reflective steel, and in her hand, the blade purred.

Duty to a singular person? That is new for CRX. Could this be a result of friendship?

On the opposite side of the Caldera, a mathematically perfect circle of the clouds evaporated under a pillar of incandescent light wide enough to swallow a city block. Three unlucky barbarians circling overhead vanished without even a scream as the light touched them, seared away beyond even ash at its merest touch.

Please take note, a sufficiently advance green imperial cultivator with a focus on long range blasting can in fact take down a city block in one attack, if they so choose. This Fact is for the grass roots Vs. Thread, which will inevitably rise up.

Yeah, ultimately what we're doing here is buying time for the main body to arrive. We shouldn't be expected to win here.

Hell, we're probably not going to be in particularly good shape after the next update.

SO, our old enemy unconsciousnes is most likely to make his return known. Are we sure Ling Qi did not inherit some kind of blood grudge from her mysterious father? I mean, LQ is falling over after almost every important fight and we are dealing with spirits right know in the loosest sense. This is a ritual site after all. :V
 
I don't buy the idea that only this one guy can move the rock, because as Ling Qi has handily demonstrated it is more than possible for a Green 2 Spirit beast & Green 3 cultivators with the right technique to yeet the thing about if nothing else. Cloud tribes yeeting it into the sky and playing keepy uppy seems to be a significant.

From that perspective we should defend the thing lest one of the cloud tribe groups (who can all fly) get the bright idea to fly off and use the giant anti-qi rock as a portable encirclement breaker.

I also think it's better to focus on defence and getting our buff chain running before the scary ice woman comes knocking, which seems likely.
 
Moratorium's over, gonna pick this one because if Liling said we were a mobile hardpoint, then we might wanna try acting like one. Make sure we set up a retreat for people to retreat to in case they get overwhelmed.

Dooo doo doo.

It was said that in the opening salvo of Ogodei's war was a single iridescent arrow from beyond the horizon which had pierced the millenia old mountain fastness of Black Lotus Peak and struck Patriarch Li through the middle dantian in his own meditation chambers.

Oh damn, that's why those arrows are so dangerous. That's some Shivering Arrow shit right there.

A drunkenly singing bear, wrought of moonbeam and dream danced into existence, and clapped the creature to his chest, spinning them off into the revel.

Of everything in the update, this was somehow the most shocking moment. I love and cherish drunken Sir Bearington.

This all turned into the weirdest fuckin' feverish acid trip for that poor Dancer.

I think I'm tentatively going with this one for now, since keeping the majority of aggro focused on dodgy Ling Qi seems like the best move for our side of the battle right now.

Wasn't the whole purpose of the operation to see how well we work together? I'd rather try to ace Cai's objectives than the war council's objectives.

I'm against forting up because Barbarians whole thing is attacking hard targets.

Uh the cloud barbarians who are basically the mongols? Isn't the whole thing about horse archers doing hit and runs and NOT trying to crack the hard targets?

That said,
