    We already have a foal predator at home! ...Not in this sense though.

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

    I wasn't around when that happened, but I distinctly remember reading in discussions that if we had a fitting Sacrament the choice wouldn't be as bad. And look, here we do get a Sacrament in return!

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

    I see "gone as Twilight and Spike" as "almost certain we won't meet him again"

    On the other hand, it is also kinda a confirmation that we won't go into conflict with him if we choose Smiles. So he is somewhere out there doing whatever Biedde wanted him to do, but he isn't going to return and help Biedde's cult against us, if that cult even exists.

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

    He literally ascended to his status through a betrayal. Double betrayal even, both his direct superiors in the Wake and the Colonel. A lot of Hours are like that. The Horned Axe, for example, doesn't have separation as one of her Natures, but it is exactly the point where she conflicts with the...

    Or it might be some assassin ponies kept around our friends to strike when they get a signal. It wouldn't stop All In, but it would definitely sour our victory.

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

    At least in the assault on Velvet's home we neutralized the sudden assault. You could see how important it is if you look at how the Velvet's ambush went in the Tall Tale

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

    Which is exactly why giving him even more time to recruit his cult is bad Let's be real: we will want to befriend Smiles. And it would like 90% require becoming enemies with Biedde Best case scenario, we do it the turn before All In. If we give Biedde enough time he can prepare contingency plans...

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

    Not right now, no But Names are generally stuck in the Mansus, unless summoned. Master could converse with members of the cult, but not get out in the Wake himself before we summoned him.

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

    So we better not let him stay in the Wake and build up this army He can't subvert anybody if he is stuck in the Mansus, and we likely can neutralize most if not all of the ponies he have subverted if we turn against him now.

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

    I would also note that if we don't take Smiles' sacrament right here and now, later it will likely become harder. At the very least we are likely to have a challenge on the level of inflicting a wound on Biedde. Which, as you could see, was a very close call for us this time.

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

    That would almost certainly happen. The only way to maybe get this Sacrament without picking a side is to kill a Worthy Enemy. Even then, it is not unlikely we'll be forced to pick a side. And it is such a huge delay we are unlikely to do it ever until the end of the quest.

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

    I really don't like that with the coward's way out we basically lose this AP and one wound for nothing(yes, we got to know a new Name... Which we will summon a few turns later), while delaying a Sacrament enough to be very likely to not get it at all With Smiles fighting whatever Biedde managed...

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

    Except we are getting an extra Name at best next turn, more likely a turn after that or even later, and need to pay more for the upkeep of that Name than if we take the offer. While we can get Sacrament right now.

    Worm museum does not hold "a" Worm. It holds multiple Worms, always dying but never quite dead. The Colonel is the main guardian of the museum, and normally the Lionsmith shouldn't challenge him there but it seems the times have changed.

    [X] You will take Smiles' offer. [X] Plan: Don't Bother With the Small Stuff

    Also, perma-killing Biedde is likely to perma-kill Smiles too. They are a Dyad, this may not apply to Names, but...

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

    Actually, not quite. Natures of the Colonel are: to be blind, to be scarred, to cannot be denied. Natures of the Lionsmith are: to be stronger, to be seamless, to make monsters. Colonel doesn't commit to duties by default, Lionsmith doesn't necessarily betray. Yet. It is very likely we'd need...

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

    There is one other organization which could summon Biedde if we let them grow: the Eclipse. Smiles seems to only be reachable through Sacrament with Biedde. Biedde, however, stands guard over the Worm Museum, Eclipse could reach him if we let them... Because one is from a Name, another is from...

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

    Ok, so... this happened. What a close call, 49 vs 51... I'm a bit more trusting towards the Lionsmith, but let's weights pros and cons other than obvious... Cons: - With Smiles, we will likely get a weaker Sacrament. If that matters at all. - Our current path seems to be more aligned with...
