Going to increase Pastures in the meantime.

Seems that adjusting land use takes up an action in Sea, we can wait for Dark.

I'd suggest enshrining Bless Crops, or exploring the tula.

We can raid the Jenestini now (I think) without getting cursed. They'll stop paying us tribute, of course. On the other hand, a successful land grab will put us in position to hit the Greydogs and Stag Hearths both.

Earth 2. Might be time to run a heroquest, since we'll want all hands on deck when we crush the Stag Hearths.

Heroquesting is probably the best idea. Dat food doe.

Tell you what, I'm going to do something different. Harvar is a nice Elmali boy who should make a pretty good chief or king in a few years. He's going to perform Orlanth and Aroka and be strengthened. Unless someone really, really wants the Bag of Winds? That's the last good treasure in this heroquest.

>>28307883
My only regret is that you can't trade food for treasure. But you can trade food for goods, and goods for treasure, so it all works out.

Yes to the first, tragically no to the second. Besides, Eurmal lost Death to Humakt, every Trickster in the world loses eventually.

>Next year. We don't want to wipe out our goods supply.
Granted.

Send emissaries to everybody who we're fairly friendly with. Find out what they can trade for, let's get those trade goods made ehn?

Also we really should explore some alright? We have a ton of territory, and bad things happen more often with more territory period (more things happen period, so just probabilities there), and we can cut down on them by exploring once a year. We need to explore. Then send out emmissaries to ALL of our non-hostile neighbors to begin trading. Build up our goods, then build that stone wall next year.

We consolidate and explore this year.

Next year we fuck over the Grey Dogs.

They eat up food while giving nothing in return until they grow up, and they don't grow up fast enough to make up for the food they fucking eat. The children that you'll get normally are more than enough to keep your clan populated safely.

>>28309860
Children are a resource drain. They take ~20 years to become productive, and take the same amount of food as a fully grown worker. It's possible to get into a starvation loop early on because you don't have enough farmers to feed the babies.

That took us down to 14 thanes, which would be bad for Fire season. So I hired more from outside the clan.

Nope. Haven't done much exploring at all.

>>28310869

Sure. What do we ask for? Payment? An alliance? We're spending clan magic on this, no reason it should be cheap.

>>28311025
We've got magic, what we need are friends. Ask for nothing to get a general boost to our reputation.

>>28311025

How badly do we need goods or treasures?

If we don't need any of those things, let's see how receptive they are to an alliance. Or just do it for generosity's sake so we can calm down the non-Gray Dogs or Stag Hearths.

>>28310869
In exchange for an alliance.

Or, we do it for free, and THEN we ask for an alliance if it goes well.

Otherwise they might be ticked off and want to break from the alliance.

Make alliances with those who are our neighbors and who aren't feuding with us.

Then, next year. We go after the grey dogs. And we fuck their shit up.

>>28311521
Let's do it. Might as well get that shit sorted out ehn?

After that we build up stone walls, hire more crafters, and expand our freaking pastures and fields.

Can we please build the stone wall and then build up our pastures, fields, hire more crafters and thanes? Consolidate before going after the grey dogs? After that, we should focus on exploring our Tula.

>>28312439

We should probably groom a more serious person for missions like that. Although I suppose it's good that Orlastor finally gave into his trickster nature sooner rather than later in the endgame.

Let's go explore and build walls.

Because Orstalor has proved himself trustworthy before. This is just about the first time he's done anything remotely Tricksterish in a long time.

Already explored once this year. Repeated explorations do not improve the bonus from the first time, and tula-based events are based on whether or not you are exploring within the boundaries of your tula, not geographic location. There's also a very small amount of extra land that we could handle without needing more farmers, and it takes an action no matter how small the adjustment is.

>>28313304
Then pastures? We need more of them? What about improving the number of crafters?

We'll be lucky to finish exploring everything by the end of the game. There are a good number if exploration events, and we'll want some more than others.

Gotcha. And I assume some others might touch off apocalypse events? Like waking up the dragons who ate everybody last time and such?

Also, we should wipe out the grey dogs before we do anything else major. Claim that territory, explore it regularly, see about recruiting partners together in a bigger alliance, especially Rune Ducks, they might be ducks, but badass undead killing warriors sound pretty cool.
