Asking for money as compensation is definitely something you can push for. Opening up Trade is also an option, as well as the presence (or absence) of an imperial garrison in your lands. Decide on what you want to push for, and at the end of the round I'll do some rolls for it and offer you a few options.
Talarys made it noted that:
> She was asking money for compensation, with the best social skills she could at the time.
> She overtly made it a point to open up trade. (Having in the back of her mind to make a diplomat hero to oversee this)
> She wanted the absence of an imperial garrison in our lands, but probably one (their choice, we're ok with none) for the trade routes connecting us and other imperial-buddy people.
> She promised she would handle helping out with diplomacying taxes from her neighbors or others that they haven't specified but she assumes may have not paid.
> She mentions the uncivilized folks in areas of Empire domain, and mentions that her organization will also be in charge of uniting them too. {Them neutrals nearby}, and uses this point to help her earlier point of military money aid.
> However, if need be, imperial garrisons can station themselves in our lands free of toll and other maintenance tax. They are to keep to themselves and we shall provide upkeep only if they are on the warpath. [basically deny any additional info other than them placing armies on our lands; we provide upkeep, but no additional info {Note: Does not stop them from sending spy heroes that I've no tech-idea about with them so yeah :V}]
> But seriously emphasize our need of money if ever we're going to militarily help them. In all honesty, we are better off diplomacying with those organizations--and we'll promise that by getting a diplomat ready.
> Really try to be convincing that I can diplomacy them (like fluff it with 'more blood needs not be spilled, as *pointing to our name of Alliance*, we can understand their culture and why they're unruffled, and then convince them over time') :3 but time will take a while.
Oh uh, Kashyyk, this is pretty much my IC points to the tax person. I edited it a bit here so the original post doesn't have some edits.
With a rather big point being "We'll really focus more on diplomacy but we need both a tiny bit of your money [not emphasizing 'tiny'] to help our military, and if you want us to help you out fully in military, send us big moneys"
I mean nobody knows Talarys' thoughts on standing against the Empire but :3
I seriously need to trade with Nirur fast. I think I can establish a trade route through Khan already, but that means my caravan only hits them after the next turn so... >_>
