    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Actually considering making a plan where either Velvet either casts the End is Beautiful or scrys and takes an expedition to kill Windy.

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Considering that Axe's befriending method was in her sacrament, and it looks that befriending Mareinette is also from Her sacrament, it is maybe kind of likely that the Book 7 is in Baldomare's SH sacrament. As an aside, I am both disappointed and slightly mad that Prisoner Chomping won. Why...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Eh, I'll put my vote on spying on Windy, since that's what I've been espousing this entire time. Though getting our hooves dirty would make it easier to slip the Forge's Redemption in there, introducing Forge lore also works, albeit a bit slower...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Good points, except that - actually, I would like to @OurLadyOfWires here, in this minor quibble over wording: as in, every option, even those not picked, will l increase in price, or only the option picked will increase in price, one action to two actions, 50 bits to 100 bits, etc.

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Sorry, I don't actually remember that was the case, that the prisoner had to be ready this turn? On the other hand (hoof), what's wrong with using up the Knock 2 artifact? I'm still iffy on the Grail Sacrament, though I am fine with the Moth Sacrament and the study to reach its prerequisite...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    If we are doing criminal, I would still suggest Windy Flakes. I'm fine on delaying this - I would prefer Velvet focusing on Baldomare's Secret Histories expedition. I say +1 action. Make one next turn? This turn is more for bits. On that note, would Axe doing Canterlot 3 grant bits? Isn't...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I would argue that Windy Flakes is a better target than Hills, just that we would need to spend an action on finding him first.

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Oh damn it, Windy Flakes still got away. Hmm... we could fetch him and immediately nom him, I suppose. And we want to do the Tall Tale expedition to prevent a further catastrophe and Celestia breathing down our necks... also I'm extremely busy and can't plan. And the only reason why I wanted the...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    If you're talking about the religious action I'm leery of it, especially since his recent actions, but I do agree the bits situation is poor. Wait, when was this? It's the AP cost, really. Wait, does teaching her also use up her follower action? I kind of want to grab another Sacrament by...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    We just keep going, then. The last things remaining for this turn is to wrap up the research into Memory of Light, Book 7, and the remains of the cult, right? Planning for the next turn, I would want to lock in getting that Book 7, finding Axe, and the Moth Sacrament. Other tasks such as Forge...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Yeah, well. I still don't like it. Maybe it's my own hubris, but I had thought that, at the very least, Velvet's family would be 'off limits'. That they are hers, and not someone's else. That we had garnered enough strength to protect that. Or at another least, to have an opportunity to delay...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    You're all just trying to avert your gaze from the final result. Truth was I believed Bird not to be lying when he said this wasn't an important vote, but the truth is now also that we are at the mercy of the moods of Mareinette. Whether that's good or bad, we don't actually know, we can only...

    Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    It's about what we want to do vs the factors surrounding us and the consequences. Which I guess is very simple - will we hide who we are or will we help even if it risks a game over? Pretty much the only option we can't do later is the Mareinette option - we can still introduce the Forge's...
