The Desert Winds brings the warm, moist air from the southern seas, passes it over the hot desert, and then clashes with the cold front from Arstotzka.  Clear Skies works by pushing clouds around, so Clearing the Sky would dispell the Desert Winds.

Don't forget, you guys have an expense credit.

Polling closes in ten minutes.

Warm, light rain is not a problem for Moskurg troops everywhere except the developing trenches in the east, and even then our troops are poised to push the enemy out.  It is certainly less of a disadvantage than the freezing cold.

So it's dice-rolled if there's a tie?

Got it.

Would using the expense credit on Desert Winds get us anything other than saving some mages?

Expense credit could be used to lower the cost of whatever we design this turn, because frankly both options stand a decent chance of entering in to NE territory.

Yeah, I'm not advocating using it now. But if using the expense credit could allow us to deploy the Desert Winds spell more, or, rather, using the same number of mages for greater effect, we might be able to get another level of warming out of it. Maybe.

I haven't given much thought as to what a cheaper Desert Winds would do.  If you can justify the effect of having it cheaper, I'll accept that.

Polling closed.
Coin flip has favored flying carpets.

Well, like I said, cheaper means that, for the same amount of mages, it will amplify the power they're pouring into the spell. Who knows, perhaps you can justify the use of the expense credit as extra production/money used to make copies of al-Mutriqa's Guide to Manipulating the Natural Patterns of Weather in Forenia to the Advantage of Moskurger Forces, Praise be to Allah

I was also somewhat worried that something that flies through magic spells will have issues if they invent antimagic.

Their antimagic is limited to arrows/cannon balls, so I'm confidant our carpets can mostly keep out of range of that. (It's easier to shoot with a bow down than up after all)

Assuming nothing else direly needs our attention, I'm not against Adamantium next turn either.

I'd kinda rather have flying eagles than carpets, but I'm not opposed to carpets, all in all.  Here's hoping we get some good rolls.

If it makes you feel better about the coin flip, my vote would have gone to the carpets anyway, but I had school so  :P

This would not be enchanted steel. We will NOT settle for half-measures like enchanting steel. It MUST be permanent.
