BA.
We shouldn't actually take to the field until our artefact is delivered, probably. That's the kind of hubris that summons arrows.

[Glass]

Oh, we don't have the artifact yet? Whoops.
Yes, we should only take the field if we have the artifact.
Though as the payment was upon completion, and it's been about a season since then, I assume that we should have it.

No, it looks like we do, you were right. I was the one not paying enough attention.

Raiding is good, going to war without an economy is foolish.

You order peasants to be taxed harsher next year, and a war council to convene. You need territories and riches and subjects, and all this can be done with one thing - war!

807 AD, Spring

Shortly after new year, you receive great news from court healers - Milka is pregnant once more! Come Summer, the child should arrive upon this world.

The next day, the war council to debate the war with Kingdom of Gon begins. Your commanders, commanding nobles and courtiers gathered, with Marshal taking a special, central place. He is obviously enjoying the attention.

"My liege! We must determine the plan for the war and its objectives!" The council murmurs in plain agreement. "Shall we fight with tooth and nail, or shall we show restraint? Should we march forth now or spend a season for preparing and gathering of soldiers and supplies? And moreover, are we taking the entirety of Gon lands or shall we fight for some piece of it?"

As for the preparations for the war...

A) "If we spend time preparing, they will learn that something's up in the air, and we can't let them! We march as soon as possible!"
B) "Better supplied and prepared army means better combat efficiency! We shall prepare until Summer!"

As for the goal of the war and general conduct...

A) "We take all that can be taken and burn down the rest!"
B) "We loot and burn some, but wealthy cities and the silver mines should be spared!"
C) "No looting and pillaging! Our targets are stricly military and leadership of the Gons!"

As for the territories...

A) "We need to secure a border province or two."
B) "We need to secure as much land as it takes to directly control the silver mines in the south of Kingdom of Gon."
C) "We will absorb the entirety of the Kingdom of Gon into our lands, even if it will require crushing every Gon man who stands in our way!"

//Multiple votes means no splits please!

1. It's not just a matter of Gon realizing we're aiming to invade, it's also that the longer the mercs go without being paid, the more likely they are to desert.
2. Some raiding keeps the mercs and soldiers happy, but the stuff with a lot of money needs to stay so we can benefit from it in the long run.
3. Let's not bite off more than we can chew. Our main objective is the money-makers, and that means the mines. If we get there with plenty of momentum, then we can consider pushing further forward.

The solution to biting and chewing problems is to CHEW HARDER.

ABC Orrr we can go in with the goal of taking all of it and scale back down our goals as the situation develops should it start not going our way

(Also this is one of those points where I really wish we had a map)

Edit: (Also Also we do already have the artifact the dwarves handed it to our advisor who then handed it to us last update)
