Mind-bogglingly popular game series that you follow from early on and cannot stop, waiting for new installment like a drooling addict.

Long-runner soap opera you're too invested into to just stop watching it.

A fun little comic strip in the daily newspaper that's been around forever.

3/6

Who said it's fun? I didn't for sure.

I'm just waiting here for it to die horribly already so it will stop showing on my Unread Posts list.

AA I wish we there had been a "delay dwarven war" option that didn't make us seem like a wuss. Oh well.
I don't think the wording of the "don't go to war" thing is important, really. Just say no and find some pretext later.

[Haspen]

You decide to get Cydwyls involved and mobilize the Methiantese youth.

Within a week, new regiments are sent east...

...and that's when you get the news.

The dwarven lords of Zonalath in the north-west has declared support for their brethren! The leaders of settlements in the mountainous region report dwarven war parties and strange siege machines rolling through the Rainbow Lizard mountains right into the strip of Methiantese land bordering the peaks.

Your courtiers are starting to panic. You decide to...

A) Send a new letter to Queen Dogethe, asking her to take care of Zonalath instead.
B) Send a negotiator to Zasitost, in hopes of securing a peace.
C) Stretch your forces a bit more so you can deal with Zonalath dwarves as well.

[Criptfeind]

A I guess.

[Prophet]

A I swear our ruler trait is a lie! None of our lucky rulers have actually had a streak of lucky events. In fact it seems to usually be the opposite. Even when we do have good things happen something else comes in to ruin it right after.

A, B would be ok, but the only acceptable restitution would be a new sceptre.

[Maximum Spin]

A - we're supposed to be looking east, let Dogethe Queen Doggy look west for us

[Twinwolf]

I TOLD YOU SO
*ahem*

B I swear our ruler trait is a lie! None of our lucky rulers have actually had a streak of lucky events. In fact it seems to usually be the opposite. Even when we do have good things happen something else comes in to ruin it right after.

This is entirely our own fault you realize, not luck

Alrighty then. We're mildly screwed.

The dwarves are stubborn. I don't think they'll take peace anytime soon, and we've turned mild dislike to anger. That said, I don't think we can handle this many fronts. B. Gotta try.

A, B would be ok, but the only acceptable restitution would be a new sceptre.

No, the acceptable resolution is "not getting smashed on several fronts at once"

Don't be a wuss, we'll be fine, we're listening to birds.

Things always look bad right after you listen to birds but then they work out.

[Criptfeind]

I agree. I voted B because I misread what dwarf was what. This is fine. Maybe after the queen takes out the northern dwarves she can come help us in the south.

BTW: If this does go wrong you'll have to get in line for the I told you so, Luath could have kept the dwarves friends with his charismatic trait.

[Prophet]

I'm think we can pull this off we we hold fast and take that damn Dwarven Fortress faster but even if we must face the possibility of defeat then let it be a Pyrrhic Victory for them! If we are to lose then at the very least let us drown the East in the Blood produced from our Vengeful Wrath!

I think they're rather different complaints. You're complaining about a chance that things might have worked out better (there is no guarantee anything would have worked out differently with Luath - it's random rolls), I'm complaining about something directly caused by player decisions

[Weirdsound]

B might be a luck roll. It'd say it is our best bet.
