Blockade running is designed to get supplies into a blockades place not out of.

What?

That's not how Jerick described it.

Whatt??
I was under the impression that that was exactly how I described it but it seems I was mistaken. The tactic details transports sneaking up towards a spire under the mists and releasing their smaller craft as far as possible from the spire so those small craft can reach the spire unnoticed and unload and load. This can only work if the transport's point of origin isn't the spire itself. I can't see any other interpretation of what I wrote? It's whole purpose is to deliver supplies and troops to besieged spires.

Also, do note that if we want to put dice into the medium docks (we should) we need to save some resources.
You are correct and I would like to highlight my earlier comments at being terrible at the whole resources thing. Give me a minute to redo them so we save some stuff. Also if someone wants to suggest a superior production plan I'd be happy to vote for it.

That was in response to helmacon who seemed to think the tactic was for sneaking resources out of a blockaded spire.

Damnit people, this is why I said to keep the truce. Because now everyone's ganging up on the cats.
Also, don't forget to contact your local Eldritch Being(s), so that they can help with our mission to destroy the universe.

I would suggest we drop a sharp notice at the Master of Unfinished to stop collaborating with the Wrethians or we will destroy him. Then, we imply the Wrehians in the Disord that we have gained "a new friend" in our expedition, so they arenīt as keen in collaborating with him next time.

Deployment Plan: Fire
RKNV Anguis II returns to home spire.
All other ships at the UF continue to Wrethian home spire. Clear Landing Site.
Transports disgorge troops and continue fleet maneuvers to act as bullet sponges.

All other ships hold position. Scouting.
Ships at home spire use coordinated fire.

Marines at the TC use Bait and Strike.

Quote
Purchase Plan: Goliath
1x Topaz Lance Cannon
2x Topaz Aetheric Pistol (standard aetheric pistols risk injuring the user due to heat. I shudder to think what this will do to the poor soul who fires it)
9c 4o 2w 0s spent
4c 12o 15w 23s remaining

Refit RKNV Viperidea: Remove 1 LAC from front and replace with Topaz Lance cannon

I feel like the option to feed the UF thing should be a seperate vote. If it passes, modify any above plan to have the Dionysus unload 3 squads at the UF and return to home spire.

Personally, I feel like dropping 3 squads is the thing to do regardless of if you want to cooperate with him. We will need to scout the UF so we have a better idea of what kind of infantry equipment to take in anyways. It also disrupts Wreth control for a few turns anyways. A win win. If we come back to finish him off later is the real question.

Suggested message for the Master of the Unfinished. If we arenīt going to ctaer to him, make it clear that if he goes back to the Wrethians he will end up with more holes than a Royal Cheese.

Weīre no Wrethian scum and we are not going to surrender our men to die as your slaves. If you know what is good for you, you will offer resistance to the Wrethian next time or by the name of our most gracious princess, we will hunt you. No matter if it costs us thrice the men you asked us for, no matter if we end up losing the war because of our involvement here, no matter if our homes are burning and our children dying on the arms of the Wrethian scum, we will make you suffer the most horrific fate a man, if you are even such, can experience.

So, was not aware we could only have one artwork. Anyone got a WiP to show, so that we can start voting?
