Well we have not had to deal with siege engines so far so it's difficult to say how the walls would fare. Still, stone walls tend to age well. Still there are always improvements that can be made even on the finest defenses. (Side note, we have a stockpile of food don't we? Preserved food is crucial in prolonged sieges. Otherwise, GET FARMING PEOPLE!)

Agreed. Could use work, but for what it's worth, we only just got started living here. That said, if she has any recommendations for improvements during the assessment, you will take notes

Apples and pears you plant for your heirs. We need something we can harvest this decade.

No. 1093200 ID: 5ebd37

Ah, shoot, this is a more detailed demonstration than good for us.

Don't throw spears unless they specifically trained for that. I'd imagine the goblins use more hit and run tactics, using their smaller stature to dodge and swarm targets.
Could have archer or executioner deliver a showy finishing blow to one, but don't have them fight together since we don't know how well the human's and goblin's tactics will mesh.
>>
No. 1093265 ID: 234d89

Well in this case it's no concern but it should be mentioned. Spears that are not designed to fail once used can be picked up by the enemy and used against us. Goes back to Rome where they had javelin/spears where the tip busted after use. Probably best to show we know that detail. Our elite should lead of course. Our best fit the role of officers well. Hopefully the troops at least can follow orders.
>>
No. 1093274 ID: ddc903

They should fight alone, no Gram or Archer needed, let them show what they can do on their own. As for how they should attack, let's tell them to stab instead of throw. Finally thing before they attack give a passionate speech to them all to fier them up.

No. 1093504 ID: c5529d

A, as long as he knows hes a part of the plan. I mean, we got this far relying on underhanded tactics and manipulation. We'll have to be sure to reward him.

And

For the archer, we'll take a wait and see approach. I know Bobbie isnt interested and trusting in humans. So if the archer wants Bobbie's love, he is going to have to earn her it. Its not our place to choose who she falls in love with after all.
>>
No. 1093506 ID: ddc903

We should influence the evaluation in our favour, and we can do that by asking Maluvia if she would like to stay and see the play. We can even arrange so that Grimlith sits next to her. As for the Archer he is just a present, now worth being interested in the queen.
>>
No. 1093507 ID: 5ebd37

>>1093506
Better yet, Grimlith can invite her himself. just play coy so she leaves looking forward to their next meeting.

Regarding archer, everyone knows royalty marries for politics and have "good friends" on the side. No need for excuses, if Bobbie isn't into him then that's that. Probably best not to get involved with someone whose name you can't be bothered to learn.
>>
No. 1093555 ID: 234d89

With war you have to deceive your enemies. Occasionally your friends. So is this the time to deceive a friend? Hard to say as my strategy is less deception oriented in general. One thing to consider though, her dad may be outraged at the pairing. With that said love is far more complicated than warfare. Speaking of which. Only advice regarding archer I have is that he is devoted. Devoted to a version of you that is fake though. What will he do when he sees what you actually are? Past that detail... how long do you live as an undead? Lifespan may be an issue though that can be fixed. For dynastic considerations do you even bear children at all? Or since you might live forever do you even need heirs? Still, once again love is more complex than mere strategy and tactics.

No. 1093602 ID: c10e31

Well if it's too easy she'll suspect it so inside. Oh and Abdle? While I get the desire to surpass her envy does not suit you at all. Especially when she's been helpful. Far as I see she sees you as family and *wants* you to succeed. Even if you surpass her with her help you'll still surpass her so be pragmatic here.

Well then you know what not to be Bobbie. Otto Von Bismarck's greatest move in a war with France was before the war itself. He diplomatically isolated France. Strategy is not just tactics and maneuvers. Diplomatic relations, economics, and technology are all crucial for strategy on a grand scale. Win first and then make war or risk defeat and death. Speaking of technology what did they use to make that marching noise? Our scouts could use it to great effect for psychological warfare. Dredge will ever be surrounded and haunted by an army he can never find. Plus we could amplify it by several magnitudes at the castle so as to fool him about the numbers we have. How much will you bet the jester ran off with the royal coffers?

Is bet that the alluring dream is inspired by the archer

Im torn between A or C.
A is good to help keep the villagers on our side while C can be a bit of a more fun way to be a false prophet to others, and still give people hope. This feels like the most subtle option too

I'll lean towards C. But might switch to A
>>
No. 1094621 ID: 3091c7

Fun as 3 is it's a standard that we will fail to achieve. Should the image shatter what will we have? 2 will be bad for allies, so it's begging for a coup. Of the last ones both would help gain allies but 4 may jilt a lot of them so 1 it is.
>>
No. 1094625 ID: c5529d

Thinking it through, I think I'll do C all the way. A I think will put too much of an unrealistic expectation on people, especially since we can't really fight and have to rely on manipulation. C while seems a bit too holier for my taste and culty, does at least still inspire people like A would. Plus, these are dreams, used to subtly influence towards a direction, not totally mind control into totally worshiping us
>>
No. 1094632 ID: 44c167

A would push us to a militant bent we could not sustain.
B has a high chance of backfiring and just netting us more enemies.
D is just archer, hopefully. Not that he seems to need encouragement.

So C seems the best use, just don't actually start a cult in the waking world.
