My constantly-stated and unasked-for opinion re: the Liminal Realm is that we should really put the Gambler on it because we are opening a hole in reality and holy shit it is a bad assumption to make that it'll be fine. You plan for the worst case scenario, not the optimistic one.
The problem here is that the best plan that does that and has a chance to win is Redshirt v4.53236, and it also differs from the plan in the lead by capturing the Whispering Darkness instead of the Red Rider, which people are really excited about.
And making a new plan at this stage doesn't seem viable.

Let's go one step further and put an entrance on our cactus fief so we can visit them and also maybe Roswita casually

Do we really need to keep the Ulgu morb? We don't even know Battle magic level enchanting. Give it to Algard or the Grey College imo.

The problem is that the IRL meter was invented in France.
And it definitely wasn't Bretonnia here.
Gods damnit I've made this joke before. I am an unoriginal hack.

I know you're referring to the liminal stuff here, but now I have the image of Mathilde using a bunch of Ulgu-ed Red Riders as pack animals.

I visualize it as a big block of cheese being run over a cheese grater. The landscape keeps scraping off instances of skywalk, converting then from the spell to the effect, woke the wizard keeps dumping more skywalk instances in on top.
I suppose you could pre-cast (pre-enchant?) a few dozen instances of bless weapon and have a spell that attached one to every bullet or quarrel that gets fed through, but you'd still need a spellcaster to be refilling the reservoir of instances.
IRL also doesn't have elfs, dwarfs or magic frogs. So comparing history is questionable.
Bretonnia is a combination of France and Arthurian England. Ulthuan is a combination of Atlantis and the British Empire. And the British Empire are the ones who kept their weird ass units (well, that and their colonies). So I'm sure the Dark Elves are somehow even worse than Ulthuan.
Also, fun history fact, the original meter definition was based on the circumference of the world, since it was supposed to be universal, independant of politics or physical objects. That worked so well that they ended up just makeing a meter long thing and defining that as a meter. They eventually gave the universal and no physical object another go, in 1960 (arguably 1983). Pretty fast, compared to the kilogram where it took till 2019.
Since I'm talking about Ulthuan as British Empire, I wonder where the Elf-Australians are at. Going purely on memes, I imagine it'd be like weirdly chill Athel Loren elves, just with less trees. Boney, what's your take as a not-elf-australian?

…and you were the one doing that? With a joke about Ulthuan using English units?

Athel Loren works perfectly fine as an Australia substitute. Former colony of the homeland with rich natural resources, isolated, bizarre hyperdangerous wildlife, inhabitants regarded as weirdos by everyone else. Orion going shirtless to barbecue some

There's always Tor Elithis, not that we know anything about it.
My point was that Ulthuan is more modern Britain than Brettonia, which has english influences, but more from medival times where everyone used weird dumb units. And prior to that, that between Ulthuan and Dwarfs, Ulthuan would absolutly be the one to use weird units. Which admittedly, could have been better explained.
(Meme) australians are friendly weirdos that live in a hyper lethal place. Athel Loren is a hyper lethal place partially because of the deranged lunatics living there. To me, that feels pretty different in tone.
I thought they were ancient greeks? With gymnasium and an entire population doing nothing but contemplate philosophy.
Going through the wiki, it sounds like Elf New Zealand.

Are you being flippant or did you not know about the White Dwarf armylist from 2005 where most of the total war roster comes from?

And sometimes they burst out of
Units are absolutly essential to everyday life, and it touches every aspect. Valaya the brewer would've cared about volumnes and temperatures and time spans. Grimnir the miner about lengths and weights. Smednir about temperatures and weights and dimensions. And so on. So they would've all had something to say.
Not everyone knows everything from every source of lore.
A lot of us try. But there is always something new/lost in time./boring.
Considering Australia was a dumping ground for undesirables, Laurelorn itself could be considered Elf-Australia, with the Grey Lords as the original convict population.
Boring answer: Elithis is in the right place and is populated by Elves.
I didn't know. I'd stopped playing by then, and haven't had reason to do much research on the Vampire Coast.

Battle Magic level enchantment.
The Wind in question.
I'm sure this was asked already but I couldn't find it. Do we know what battle Altars the grey's have?

Yeah, they pulled a lot from the article.
For example, you know the rogue pirate factions that showed up when the Coast released? 5 out of the 8 are named after magic items from the list (Gentleman Jenkin's Spyglass, Black Buckthorn's Treasure Map, etc)
