I wouldn't mind having joint operations during the re-negotions that will happen in a few years down the road, but I think it's too soon for that now.
Nothing is more permanent, than a temporary solution.I wouldn't mind having joint operations during the re-negotions that will happen in a few years down the road, but I think it's too soon for that now.
If the alternate bases option is chosen, there will be more raids, more conflict and greater casualties. Because the roads will be less safe. Which then will increase tue burden of the judicial system.
And that's just fact.
Okay, if you are so adamant about your "facts" I would like you to quote me a passage of text from the story that states that there DEFINITELY will be raids. As far as I remember, we are talking about possibilities here.
It is possible that the road is attacked by either the clouds, bad actors or even roaming spirits.
It is possible that it never happens.
Just as with our thief vote way back when. Just because we choose the point closest to the enemy, with the highest risk, does not automatically mean there will be any attack whatsoever ...
These posting along the road my very well never see any action.
The alternating Post may very well provide the necessary protection and deterrent. To use your method of arguing, 'The Possibility that the option is sufficient, is a fact.'
I choose to believe that it is sufficient and that we don't need to waste favors for questionable gains.
For reference, one of the most stable, and pacified provinces - the Thousand Lakes, has an entire branch of the Bai dedicated to road safety. And they don't have to worry about border incursions anymore either.Okay, if you are so adamant about your "facts" I would like you to quote me a passage of text from the story that states that there DEFINITELY will be raids.

Saying "we need more security or people die, when the current may very well be sufficient" feels a bit foolish....going, "Prove that road security is going to be a problem" feels a bit foolish.
the wog you are referring to:
"It is when you live in a death world with relatively sparse settlement
green's are the guys who are expected to regularly comb the in between spaces for new gribblies and to make sure the roads and wardings aren't breaking down."
They don't patrol the roads, they hunt the unclaimed land in between for stuff that grow too big and do maintenance.
Saying "we need more security or people die, when the current may very well be sufficient" feels a bit foolish.
That is what I was going for with my post if you want to paraphrase it to a single sentence.
Well I guess I'll believe you and not the phrases where you were like, "Prove there's ever going to be anyone attacked on that road at any point ever."
"There's enough protection on the road, it's sufficient" is not the same thing as, "It is possible that it [people on the road being attacked] never happens."
It is a statement declaring that there will be more raids if we go with the lesser security.If the alternate bases option is chosen, there will be more raids, more conflict and greater casualties. Because the roads will be less safe. Which then will increase tue burden of the judicial system.
And that's just fact.

I accept the possibility of their being dangers to the road.It is possible that the road is attacked by either the clouds, bad actors or even roaming spirits.

Sounds to me like "There's enough protection on the road, it's sufficient"The alternating Post may very well provide the necessary protection and deterrent.

Shit.Claiming that the explicitly less safe option may not suffer any attacks whatsoever is absurd.
"It is only roadwardens," Gu Xiulan dismissed, waving a hand.
In the brief moments where they spoke, the tiny dots on the horizon became larger, resolving into two riders. One was a man in polished dark green armor, with a face covering helm and a spear held over his shoulder. He stood on the back of a tremendous brown shelled scorpion, whose eight legs churned the sand beside the road into a plume of dust. Wider than three horses standing side by side, with a tail that arced some six meters into the air, it was an imposing sight.
On the other side of the road, the second figure stood in a wide stance atop a disk of pale white stone, its bottom marked by clusters of seemingly organic blue crystal that flashed and sparked with lightning as it flew, hovering some two or three meters off the ground. The rider wore dark brown obscuring robes, including a headdress and veil that left only a slight sliver of flesh around the eyes exposed.

Patrolling the great roads was a duty shared between the Dukes of the province, the Guo, and the three great count or marquis clans. The Han, the Fan, and the Deng. Always in pairs, and never a pair from the same clan. It fostered unity among those who ruled the wastes. Or so it was said anyway.
In the mean time we need to get things off the ground now without causing major problems for us, and we're likely to need that margin to play with in the next section. The trade-offs here aren't worth it imo, and are likely to cause us regret later.
It is more risky though when PT are low and are probably about to make a bunch of demands of us that we can't readily accede to in the next section because of the MoI glaring at us. Like, crossed fingers we'll be able to get through it running net neutral on them, but...I mean, 70% of the time with Omake points the tradeoffs here are -1 to only Polar Theocracy Favorability and nothing else. That thus does not seem too high a price to pay. The 30% of the time we also pay -1 White Plume Favorability is a higher price to pay, but not so high it's unreasonable.
