@BoneyM you said that the more moving parts added to a long term interrogation, the more complicated it would become but... As I see it, a Mindhole caster would be able to reset their interactions with each cast, so the increase in complication would be minimal?

This also would have the skaven forget it was his idea to come with us, likely resulting in noncooperation.

@noliar, your plan is illegal as it currently stands. It has two separate Qrech gambits, and only one can be selected for free, since you're only taking one Qrech action. Also, you don't seem to be doing any tower construction; is it your plan to ask Belegar for more time in the next Council meeting?

As I noted, if the Max action don't count I'd go with the Venal Mathilde line.

We said improvements that don't compromise current operationality, I'm adding extra security and I'm getting Johann to design a light source. I don't want an Azyr tower on site, we don't need an Aqshy tower for light, AA can be added later.

If so, I would like to put forward spending the College favour needed to get someone with mindhole to be able to come in an re-check various questions asked in different ways.

Preferably someone who speaks dwarf and is good with languages.

Mathilde has spent six months getting to the point where some cooperation can be assumed. A second interrogator would be starting from scratch, and being able to press the reset button might prevent complications but it also prevents progress.

Also, the list of Grey Wizards fluent in spoken Khazalid is one person long and that's Mathilde.
 
You know, the whole translation thing is nice...

But we want the spoken version too, and this does nothing to achieve it

I'm definitely all for capturing Kvinn Wyr once we've investigated Mhonar. Since the latter counts also as a barrier, as long as the entity inside wouldn't attack us it can easily take it's place.
 
Foreign adventures call to me although I know that we don't have the time.
Damn you action hell!

Also, if I understood correctly, we should be able to overwork painlessly this turn because the existing overwork phases out now? @BoneyM

No. Overwork taken now while the first box is [+] will fill the second box and thus will have the penalty. Next turn it will be [-] and the same will apply. The turn after that the first box will be empty and THEN you can use it for overwork without penalty.

@BoneyM could we ask him to teach us spoken Queekish?

The current plans are various ways to get Queekish out of him in ways that make him think he'll be slightly helping locally instead of hugely helping the entire Empire, but if you want to go all in and be all like 'yo fuck that Horned Rat anyway, how about you deliver an enormous intelligence coup to the greatest external foes of your entire race' I guess you could.

@BoneyM Are frost and ice dragons weak to fire damage in Warhammer?

They don't come conveniently colour-coded with their elemental weakness, no.

It is a longshot, but we'll probably want to get some bonuses on Dragon diplomacy in medium-term future. Not this turn obviously, and probably not the next one, but IDK about after that.

Emperor Dragon is a pretty massive trump card in both war and peacetime.

yup. That's what the lying is for.

The line of "Some Imperial factions already know it but the %&$@ers won't share" is pretty good for that. Along with "Mathilde want's to know it for her own advantage." and "If you don't help, some other prisoner will get the luxuries."

I've never gotten the impression that Queekish is something the Skaven are particularly guarded about. Stupid humans and stunties don't know how to talk properly because they're stupid, yes yes. This guy knows for a fact that the Dawi Zharr have taken live captives before - the cat's possibly out of the bag with one enemy anyway.
