Knights of Tezoth

If Lorelei falls, it'll be tough to carry solo, but while they're alive, we can come up with something. The main thing is to crank out city defenses, especially the southern ones, and then think from there. Diplomacy needs to be used, but I have no idea who and where.

And indeed, you can come to me.

Item 1: Give us our money back!!!
Item 2+: <will appear after completing item 1>...

Don't you know that this is a Cartridge.

They don't trust the pointy-ears.

But we do know that a certain Ple-Sen had a hand in this...

Ples didn't ask for your region to be debuffed!

But Ples got upset when a picture appeared that removed the debuff from Kanamia.

So Kanamiya and Florenzan fruits are a bit different!

I didn't quite get the diplomatic visit of Rezara to Olivus... They share a border, but there's no direct road. How was the visit carried out?🤔 Or is a "envoy" not considered a unit here, so roads aren't required? And in that case, can we go to Mika with Orvald?

I figured this was before the official part of the strategy game and worked by somewhat different rules. But maybe it's just as you described.

Preliminary:

Lord's defense. Cancel the attack on Fireflave (if necessary).

Goodguy: upgrades Flowers (+1 to unit production).
Lois goes with diplomacy...

Matricaria builds a ship (?). - Idk, might come in handy later if we decide to send mercenaries somewhere (or someone else)...
Fragrance creates 10 units of equipment.
Lapiena creates 10 units of equipment.
Isolla creates 10 units of equipment.
Splendor creates 10 units of equipment.
Fireflave recruits 2 units into Azarta's squad.
Flowers recruits 2 units into Azarta's squad.
Indominus recruits 1 unit into Azarta's squad.

Orvald repeats Fragrance (creates 10 units of equipment).
Emilia repeats Lapiena (creates 10 units of equipment).
Kilslow repeats Isolla (creates 10 units of equipment).
Skilishue repeats Splendor (creates 10 units of equipment).
Lilen repeats Indominus (recruits 1 unit into Orvald's squad).
Tinvalen repeats Indominus (recruits 1 unit into Emilia's squad).
Azarta repeats Indominus (recruits 1 unit into Kislow's squad).

Indominus's warriors each create one unit of equipment (4 total).

If we don't use Lois for hiring a second mercenary squad, we could send him to Silverdane or Teneressa. Idk about the usefulness (both regions are idk where), but while Lois is "free", why not...

My turn is basically ready too. Just waiting for Reven's answer on a certain question.

Is there any point in negotiating with the folks who are far away? There's no benefit or help from them right now, and the devils from the south will clearly attack Firevlav soon, so we need to defend it. It makes sense to talk to the islanders, so that they could later attack them from the sea if needed. Or with Miku.

I think that since the "devils from the south" are busy with Lorelei for now, they're unlikely to attack right this moment. Either they'll finish off Lorelei, or head straight for the capital... I don't know what's going on in Karea's head, but sending Ardas to Justia and then "redirecting" him to Fireflav (i.e., fighting two regions at once) seems a bit too "overly cunning"...
We can go to the islands and Miku at any time with anyone, but Lois might have more important matters to attend to in the future...
