Conquer Issoudon 10 + conqueror +2 + Henri +1 = 13

Ugh CV 1. What a pain. Also maybe I should have just gone with Rich. Conqueror only starts being better than Rich when you're attack 3+ a turn, which is not in the early game.

Invest 5 Grain in Narbonne and spend 10 Grain to invade Toulouse, have Bernard assist in the invasion = +13 for the attack.

15 Grain + 2 (Mauger leading) = 17 to conquer Belleme

I’m interested to see how Rich vs Conquerer shakes out. Rich is a lot safer these first couple turns… but if a conquerer does survive into mid-game, I could see the risk paying off. Hrmmmm

Noo! Napoleon is dead, and when a film about his life was announced. This simply will not do! Of all the things a stray arrow!? No, this won't do at all.
