How much can Rin speed this up using some WP on her repair charm?
Planning to have Rin working on moving some traps around and repairing/installing defenses while Ryu is doing his map work.

You need the more sophisticated equipment and the sterile room setting of the large factory to get them working.
 
[QUOTE="Lord-Leafar]If we do enter Mass Combat, you need War just to effectively fight as a solo unit, aren't your abilities are capped by your War in mass combat?

[/QUOTE]
Goddamnit, that's a stupid rule. I'll need 21 more XP to get War to 6.


Sigh, looks like my shiny new charms will have to wait.

Thank you for reminding me. The tram network is about 30% functional right now, with the biggest problem being several cave-ins and some flooding. The tram cars need to be serviced, but even without that, they can still run. Once the cave-ins are cleared, you'll have the network up to about 50%, and the rest will need more serious work.

Cave ins - good duties for the Dragon King! with Ryu overseeing to shore up the tunnels. The tram cars will be serviced since they may take damage during tunnel fighting and if they can be keyed to only work with us even better.

The Charm Words as Workshop Method can duplicate a Shogunate facility. Is this not sufficient?

[QUOTE="MaHaSuchi's700]Sounds like we need to reclaim Ryu's manse :P

For just 2 automatons? Not worth the risk. If we had 50 in need of repair then it might be :D

To get the cars to work only for you will take some serious reprogramming, since they were intended to be free public transportation.

War 6, from 0 dots, requires 33 XP to get if you don't Favor it (3 first dot + 2 + 4 + 6 + 8 +10).

The automations are very large, designed for city defense. You'll need the heavier equipment stored in the factory to get them working.
 
A question regarding 'spirit of a city'. What direct influence do they have on the city they are a representation of? Could the spirit of Rathess be of any use to us?
 
[QUOTE="MaHaSuchi's700]Wait, wouldn't programming be better fitting for Lore? Not that the savant bonus still won't apply >_>

[/QUOTE]
I think that Craft would still be the right skill. Lore is more esoteric knowledge, while Craft is putting that knowledge to use.
 
Good job I got that Charm then. And Savant is turning out a bit useless. only helps -understanding- stuff. Not actually doing anything.


EDIT: If Ryu has time (and the balls) he'll also try and modify a set of Gunzosha to fit the Raptok.

I have 12 Xp saved up, so 21 more xp for me.

AFAIK, there is no reference to a spirit of the city in CoTD: the East. I was planning on coming up with one, since it is a glaring hole in the spiritual heirarchy of the city. Give me a bit to work one out.

I resemble that remark. :P


I think Leeyata is the city-goddess of Rathess, too -- lemme check.


I forget: is Filial Wisdom's army all demons, cannibals and rogue stalkers, or does he have hobgoblins too, like in the books?

Some of all except for the Stalkers. Until they get to Essence 2, they are too wild to domesticate.
 
Well, sorta. With 12XP you can get the first 3 dots. So you'll lose 3 dice from your attacks when acting as a Solo unit in Mass Combat and have your MA Excellencies capped with 3 less dice as well. Not the end of the world, really, considering how many dice you already throw around. But it'll definitely be something to get moving with.


Now, if Storm had the opportunity to focus all of his attention on Tiger alone, what we could actually do is use TWTT to put you into XP debt and just bring you up to War 6 in 6 weeks. The remaining XP you couldn't pay immediately would just have to be paid down with at least 50% of all XP you earn from here on out. Unfortunately getting the unit up to snuff needs to take priority, because without serious training advantages we'll get run over even worse.


EDIT: Also, Tiger's going to be in a bit of a predicament. While Storm can spend a week with TWTT to get you the first dot of War (that would normally take 3 weeks to train straight up), beyond that he'll be on his own. Each additional dot takes a number of weeks equal to your current rating, I believe. This means if you have War 2 and want War 3, it'll take 2 weeks of 8-hr a day training sessions provided you have a trainer.
 
I got to say, I love the amount of participation in this game so far. It gives me a happy.
 
Sherwood, would you allow a Martial Arts charm that lets me substitute Martial Arts for War, so long as I remain unarmed?


I really don't want to buy dots in War.
 
War will only come into play for you if you act as a unit commander. If you are acting as a special solo unit, it shouldn't be necessary. Unless I'm completely off my rocker as far as Mass Combat goes, that is.

But it's still interest in the game. It takes time for all these plans to be polished up and posted in the IC thread.
