Just making sure that channeling/antimagic is an acceptable combo.

She could still make our lives a pain and makeing enemies with the Elector Countess is not a good idea.
Maybe but she mostly expressed a personal fear of magic, not one that would cause her to go out of her way to cause us issues. If she had a problem with the branch college she would more likely lodge a formal complaint with the college before turning hostile.
 
Can i just remind people we spent literally every favor we had with the colleges to make an item to bring us back from the dead? And that we have a spell that grants us the protective benefits of plate mail.

Do we really need more protection?
 
Also note: At some point we really should talk to Wulfhart, see if we can find out what the heck is going on in Middenland.

Being able to come back from the dead four times in a row is nice, but it'd be better if they had to hit us with simultaneous artillery strikes in order to kill us in the first place. It's a simple multiplication of total durability, and it also combos really well with the Regrowth/Dread Aspect/Crown of Fire morale attack we're building up.

You can never have too much protection because Chaos like to try to fuck you over whenever it can.

Not really our business, is it?

We'll be out of the Empire for quite a while and even if we were there we wouldn't want to get involved in a issue between entire provinces after the big cults have already thrown their support in.

That's a bad place for a single fresh magister without big amounts of backing to be. We don't even have college-favors to get backup for now.
 
Huh. I could've sworn it was Byrrnoth Grundadrakk.

Byrrnoth is the younger son of the King. Maybe the king and his eldest song will one day be eaten by a sea dragon, and maybe Byrrnoth will take the name Grundadrakk after killing said sea dragon, but if that is to happen it's a number of decades away yet.

(Maybe Byrrnoth will befriend an elf that one day will become Phoenix King on that voyage, but what are the chances of that?)

@BoneyM Would a Channeling/Protection talisman preclude the use of a 'normal' staff latter on? Is it a valid choice?

It would be likely be quite difficult to make a 'normal' staff compatible with a dwarven channelling talisman.

I actually do want to know about that, but I'm in no hurry. Not like we can do anything about it right now.
 
apparently guns enchanting isnt great thanks to newness .

doing 10 favor weapon and 8 favor anti magic talisman seems like a good idea to satisfy both camps of talisman and weapon people? 10 favor is runefang territory people, abit better hopefully.

Or like 3-4 favor weapon might be a idea aswell next to a 10 favor talisman. I know people dont want to use melee weapons but we will be forced into it and having the best weapon for surving it seems a very very solid idea.

and i agree that if not doing a greatsword and maybe being cheap then being cheap for a one hand axe seems like a decent idea to consider. Basicly if ur argument is that u want to enchant the weapon urself later for +magic then maybe get a rune item weapon anyway but as it was said we could dual wield a one hand runeaxe and our pistol and have the sword available aswell.

I would advocate helping the jade wizrard, the kings meeting , mercs maybe and training with the rune item stuff for the last action.

Between Barak Varr's runepriests and the presence of Kragg the Grim, this is the time to commission a runic item if ever there was one. Will you?

Casting magic under stress is dangerous and we will be a high priority target of enemy casters

Dunno if it will be permitted but grey wizards is nosy

Not sure this is worth a whole action but the rangers should know the venom is available

likeliest option to turn up any human intrigue problems

I'm voting for shopping anyway, might as well ask her along

[x] Introduce him to the dwarven smiths so he can try to convince them to teach him.
We haven't done anything for him yet

[x] Help him find a place with the dwarf artillery crews so that he can supplement their abilities in combat.
It's where we think he'll be most useful so let's make sure it happens

No such thing as too much protection and this should give the best bang for our buck.

[X] Many mercenaries look for work at Barak Varr among trades looking to make the long and dangerous trip to the east. See if any can be convinced to join the Expedition instead.
Time limited oportunity to get even more soldiers.
