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.

B We can't have a repeat of this. Either you adjust your damn tactics to follow the clearly more professional and effective army or you shouldn't be leading. They lost us many of our Expensive fireblood machines and Four Thousand Lives. This isn't just a blunder but a sign of complete incompetence in the Eldrican army.

B, sure

B. Ideally, we should demand he put one of our Martial sons in charge of the war effort.

I think literally selling a son to a potentially enemy nation would justify all the bad things the npcs have said about us tbh.

That would be an incredibly uncharitable way to describe sending one of our best generals to direct our own war effort on behalf of one of our allies and tributaries.

[Criptfeind]

It'd also be accurate thou.

Edit: And maybe more importantly that appears to be how the npcs would think of it, given past history.

We've gotten discontent for sending our sons to help our extremely long term allies. We've been chewed out for sending them to stop a rebellion.
We've been insulted and plotted against when one of them of their own volition went into a dangerous situation and died.
Sending one to fight against the hordes on the behalf of a nation that was a few years ago trying to kill us, in exchange for them paying us money none the less, seems like it'd merit a response harsher then any of the previous.

I never said they were wrong. We want spoils of war, and I at least am OOC willing to sacrifice sons to get it. We have enough grandkids tucked away that it is unlikely we run out of heirs.

I think B is kinda a win-win. A good roll helps us win the war, and brings us closer to 20 years of payment. A bad roll pisses our allies off, giving us an excuse to abandon them, lick our wounds, and perhaps seize control of Koi 'for its own protection' when the war starts going bad for the Eldricans.

Thought: is the land between Cydwyl and the Kahnite the sort one could march an army across? We might actually be better served teaming up with our son-in-law and attacking the nomads from their poorly defended north.

I think we should let the generals fight.
Our generals are better, though.

B. As tempting as it is to just withdraw and rebuild the army in preparation to defend our own lands, we're still probably stronger with them than without them.
