25 bits and zero AP is a lot different than 125 bits and their full turns. Sending extra names on short expeditions is easy fun and profitable. For a long expedition we are absolutely going to need to rely on Axe's general bonus plus artifacts and fun sized Forge name. See how we've repeatedly...
???
??????
Are we considering +30 Lore bonuses pointless now? Barely even a couple of turns after we sent an entire trio of Names plus an alicorn just to kill a single, mortal pony for the explicit purpose of covering all of our bases?
Wasn't the Freedom option a permenant AP removal? Also, I don't think Influence is actually going to be all that bad for us, since (unless I'm missing something) it's just one social action paired with keeping the Leash on Mayor Mayor for a turn or two until the danger's passed (since I am under...
For we know the Dept collection could contain hints to the unbound Name. (Very likely if they were a former cultist)
Hell it might even be Windy.
Whatever is involved though Copper thought it was worthwhile which means it's probably pretty valuable.
Look, given Celestia's Celestianess...
Sending multiple Names is kind of pointless, it's not like their general bonus stacks. Most likely we send Axe plus artifact Cherenkolt (zero bits, same lore levels added) to handle the book hunt. Artifact Cherenkolt gets to lend 9 total lore levels to every expedition he's sent on for zero...
Bits. BITS, Shaper. We're almost certainly going to need to send multiple Names on a long expedition (which is CRITICAL), plus the reagent expedition. It doesn't matter how much you want to poke the Manehattan expeditions, getting Name friendship online is infinitely more important. Also, why in...
If there's a fic you really like and never want to lose, just download it and back it up. Presto, you have a permanent personal archive. I get that this would be annoying to do for every fic you like (although moving away from QQ, you should note that AO3 has a two-click download button that...
You could just drop the Cloudsdale expedition, that is like the least tempting one. Why extort a rando when we can track an unbound Name and progress the back up victory?
And if my curse worked, not for long.
I will agree with you on that if you put Jade's base action in "A Memory of the Path".
As a reminder, that didn't work last time and while I AM willing to use the Leash like that if needed we also have to save Mayor Mare.
Why? Because she is a damn good mayor!
Edit: Also we might not even...
Just send our Shattered Risen, Jade and Comet as the leaders.
They're short expeditions afterall.
Axe is still free if her AP is needed on the Forge Reagent expedition.
Besides we don't have bits or the ap for any long expeditions at the moment.
Also Filthy Rich and Servants can cover our...
That's right. But if we are gonna do any of them my vote goes to "Is it Free Real Estate?", purely for the possible Neighnia clues.
We can also just bench the Constables for a turn. That gives 1 Velvet Action.
I would also rather that not happen and voted for it not to happen. But our AP is limited and I want to establish saving mayor mare as "in the list of things that can be cut if we absolutely have to"
We're spending 1 Velvet AP on Baldomare SH and most likely 2 more on Grail and Moth Sacraments...
The book hunt, yes, absolutely. The Forge 6 reagent I think we have a decent chance at getting lucky on it and ending up with a short expedition, like how we found the Level 6 book in a short, extremely easy expedition.
And I'd rather not Mayor Mare get shoveled because, for some reason, we...
I was thinking for the gang assault expedition.
Biedde's good at intimidation and if there's a fight he can handle it.
Keep in mind we've seen Risen commit prep before though.
I almost wouldn't mind just letting Mayor Mare meet an unfortunate end rather than burn Mareinette AP on it next turn.... most likely we just spent Velvet social on it instead of Cheerilee
We have The Great Book Hunt and The Quest for Iotic Essence next turn, both of which are likely to be...
This is idiotic.
Stop trying to bring legality and legal bullshit into fanfiction. Nobody wants it here. Stop it.
I'm not talking from any legal standpoints, because again, nobody fucking wants legal bullshit involved with fanfiction, because if it does get involved EVERYONE LOSES.
I'm saying...
