| The situation grows desperate for Duke Iyan. With his support slipping
| away, he can see the end of his reign fast approaching. A few months
| into the year, he makes his decision. Commanders loyal to him are to be
| quietly placed in charge of vital fortresses, including the Timber Veil.
| Dissedents are to be identified and watched. THe house arrest of Alvar
| III is tightened. The groundwork is being laid for a preemptive
| strike...
|
| Action 1+2: Lay the Groundwork for Suppression of Foes
| Actor: Duke Iyan
| Prime Determinent: Authority (+2)
| Difficulty: Normal
| Mods: -- weak due to lost war
| + double action
|
+2+1-1+(0+1-1+0)=+2
The Duke's orders are followed without disruption. Nothing exceptional,
either good or bad.
| The Guardians are not inactive this year either, as they continue to try
| to recruit new members and muster support for an eventual challenge to
| Duke Iyan.
| Action 3: Prepare for the coming struggle
| Actor: Duke Danan/the Guardians
| Prime Determinent: Consent (Mediocre 0)
| Difficulty: Hard (-1)
| Mods: -- discredited prior to the war
| + some nobles (particularly those who lost territory in the
| peace treaty) see the Guardians as their only hope to regain it
|
|
0-1-1+1+(-1+1+0+1)=0
The deadlocked status quo continues.
| The Asagmari front presses its Saragor offensive, launching larger and
| deeper penetrating raids than last year.
| Action 4: Larger raids into Saragor
| Actor: the Asagmari Front
| Prime Determinent: Military Force (Great +2)
| Difficulty: Normal (0)
| Mods: + high morale from crushing victory over Razanian Front
| + fighting for what they see as their homeland
| + last year's success
+2+3+(+1-1+1+1)=+7
Oh my (here I scratch my head in wonder). For all intents and purposes, the
offensive into Saragor has turned into a rout. If offered, terms of
surrender are an almost certianty.
