This one because it gets us the one action that brings cost down for building and settlements. The lumberjack action so next turn we have a cheaper settle cost. We are not attacking Sombra's Empire for a long time we need to increase the numbers of everything we have first before we even think about it. We also need to give our allies time to recover so they are viable and time to work on new allies so the help out as well.

While Im perfectly cool with whatever plan we take as long as its not attacking the enemy this turn, just want to say that in the description for lumberjack it doesnt specifically say itll lower cost for build actions. Just increased logging income. Seems like theres correlation, so if QM has said it or will change it, then thats fine too. But as of right now, seems an assumption.

We have three good reasons to finally take the Lumberjack optin
1) it´s cheap and raises our income
2) it gives our army something to do
3) we really like burning stuff and more wood means more fire^^
 
[X] Plan East Trade

Upgrade the cannons as much as we can and make a defensive line of fire and cannons. We should continue to upgrade our defense because going into a winter wasteland with an army never ends well we will have to eventually but only after a significant build up and maybe with surgerical strikes.

I do wonder where pony land is in reference to us. That's going to be an interesting meeting
 
Honestly I feel that we ought to have the option to launch regular raids into the Crystal Empire. Attention economy is probably one of the few advantages we hold over Sombra - if everyone is slaved to his will, he would need to constantly pay attention and switch focus to intercept every raid. Should keep him too busy to focus on his own projects.

Just get in, smash a few mines, intercept a few transports, then run for the hills. Constantly, with multiple groups.

[]Plan Bloody Tithe

I would rather not give the threat time to recover, and ideally attack the threat immediately... preferably right after we blow the crystal mines and right before it can recover from that. This seems like the best bet to do so.

Grapeshot is a winner's toy, and I want to use overtime as much as I can. This is my favored bloody and aggressive plan. I like this plan, we max out our cannons... both in number and ability, and then we march.

Respectfully, that's insane.

1. Supplies. We are never getting a stable supply line from home to the South with the weather actively against us. Even if the windegos don't add anything it would still be beyond a hell to get all supplies through the snow and mountains.
2. Artillery. We not Hannibal. If we try to march our artillery over snow and mountain we will lose them and we will lose a significant amount of our army before we even see the enemy.
3. Fortification. We won the last battle ONLY because we had a defensible position and we still lost 50% of the army. We didn't have to worry about flanks, flyers or traps. We could just sit there and rain death on them. We had traps, our artillery were safe and free to fire constantly. We had every strategic advantage.
And we lost 50% of that army.
Now you suggest that we abandon all those advantages, take on multiple disadvantages AND give the enemy the same advantages we had?

Retreat will be impossible because of the weather. his blizzards will make our visibility zero so he can be a ghost and manouver over the entire battlefield without us knowing where he is. We would be blind, cut off, outclassed and completely without hope.

If we invade, not one in a hundred will return alive.

Let's see, cost 1450, final treasury is 1440. I can live with this considering it doesn't involve poking the CE before we've really recovered.

I think its time to bite the bullet and organize and tax alcohol. I know people seem terrified of lossing public opinion but considering how much money alcohol makes in RL we need to do this sooner rather than later because the longer we wait the worse any backlash is going to become especially since i dont expect people to wait around for us to do something and will start taking matters into their own hands. More over i fully expect something like this for every luxury good we get access to.

Only problem is that we have too many things to worry about. As relatively low priority so it's not going to be used unless we have an open slot and nothing else that is needed.
