Was our Feathersian relations 6 last turn, or is the current diplomatic relations-post not yet updated for this turn?

Sorry, you left it open to interpretation. I'm still seeing Brochard as not an idiot who would declare war against the world with no allies, or backup plans, and I thought you wouldn't want to let Brochard throw the first strike causing unknown amounts of damage to Griffonia.

Don't worry about that, with us having naval supremacy he can't attack us directly anymore.
He can only attack us through Wingbardy's, causing damage to them and drawing them in war. If he doesn't attack we won't even have to go to war because he will be facing a rebellion and lose his throne, that is if he doesn't decide to stop his military spending.

While I feel this should be taken with a grain of salt since this is only a rumor passed along disgruntled folks I feel this is both a good thing and a bad thing at the same time. Good as in we might be able to stir shit up behind enemy lines and that if we win this war or even just stalemate without losing to much ground Aquileia will be in shambles for some time as disgruntled civilians pissed that all their scarifies were for nothing and a damaged economy will set them back quite a bit.
It's bad though as this means that Aquileia is going to throw everything they have into this war plus the kitchen sink because after all the have put into this upcoming war they can't afford to lose so we can expect them to throw one hell of a punch at us when this thing finally kicks off.
hmm, if Aquileia has half decent spies (or just get some lucky rolls) they still might be able to drive a wedge into our industrial operations by raising tensions between the birds and the dogs but at least at this point it seems unlikely they'll be able to throw us into a revolution over this issue at least.
Also our wife have the kid yet? I mean it's been a year

Diplomacy is for persuasion. You can't really persuade your people to be less racist. You got the diplo bonus when you met with Montefeathertro because that was a one on one meeting for diplomatic purposes. It was the exception, not the rule. I'm sorry, in retrospect I should have made that more clear.

It really is amazing. Like we passed by more than 30 and than the omakes pushed it to artificial crit.
I guess Griffins can tap into the Magic of Friendship.

So he is going for numbers. Now the question is do we match him like that, or go with quality of troops. He has 17,000 troops on his side. We have 10,000 regulars, 1,000 fighters from the Knights Chapter, and a 500 experienced mercenary troop. If we upgraded our armor and gear and increase the number of ballistas we have we might be able to beat his forces. If we can stall the war for just another year or two we gain massive advantages from our research and spies.
Bah, they are already working all kinds of jobs apparently.

For me the strategy would be that once he attacks Wingbardy we intervene and kick him out of Wingbardy or draw him in stealmate there.
Basically i hope for the same thing to happen as in WW1 in eastern front.
We have quality over his quantity, if he doesn't progress he could face a rebellion and have his army colapse.
So we have maybe one more turn till war if we are lucky, given we have both martial actions free next turn if we do what should we take? Expand army? better equipment? maybe both?
Yeah! is it a boy or girl? can't wait!

There's also the navy: Brochard and his pirates vs our 20 Cog Ships.
I'm not sure, but isn't Feathersian League at 8 relations with us currently, instead of the shown 7?

This brings something up: how long are turns (I'm assuming it's a year, but does a year here equal a year on earth) and how long is a Gryphon pregnancy? Normal lions have 110 days, but I don't know if that's anywhere near relevant here.

I'm thinking on taking better equipment and integrating the diamond dogs into our army now that our people get along.
Wait a minute...
Our enemy outnumbers us only that little???
It isn't a proper two-on-one situation, even if we exclude our own mercenaries and the knights.
Then you have to take into accord that his Griffons are made out of mix of low tier troops, probably some personal guard as his elites and then bunch of bandits and pirates? I doubt he will be able to control that easily.
Our chances of success have increased dramatically in my estimations.
I am very pleased.

They are in several different career fields. Mining excavation and construction are just some of their best so are the ones that are getting the most notice. They are good at it so they're going to continue to work at it why should we get in the way of that?
The numbers look okay. The order has room to grow and can eventually spawn new Knight Chapters.
We have a larger Navy and or ships are superior because of the bolt throwers I think we're good.

Hmmm. Sieges must be a pain for troops with flight, and fortification theory will be completely altered, but with the threat of oncoming war, I'm wondering if some work in building defenses could be useful. After all, so long as his first attack fails, I imagine so do his dreams of offense, and bandits and totally-not-bandit mercenaries promised pillage rights aren't likely the type to stick around should their looting not come around, same with pirates. I'm thinking coastal forts, and possibly watchtowers.
