== Military Strategy ==
==Wedding Plans==
*The city is well-fortified against mortal soldiers, so a direct attack will involve mass and momentum, along with skyships and warstriders  An attempt on the city is going to be based on overwhelming the defenses with raw force.
*Groom: Calacthchan, Golden Emperor, King of Calacthchan, Lord under Heaven, Prince of the Earth
*The alternative is a commando raid of their own. Only some PCs have surprise awareness charms.
*Bride: Sublime Calamity, Crown Princess of Thellesia, Supreme Warlord of the Resplendent Host, Princess of the Earth
===Commando Raiding the Fort===
*Priest: Autumn Blooms
*The Objective: To damage and disrupt the Shogunate's fighting power in the region
*Second/Backup Priest: Spiralling Lao
:*Highest priority is their magitech force multipliers - artillery, airships, power armour
*Sanctifier of Oaths: Daimyo of the Masked Nail
:*We take over one of the big airships and turn its guns on the fort if we want to destroy it, that's the quickest way to do so. Preferable the flagship.
*Best Man: Kirigasa Varil, Shogun
:*I disagree. The greatest threats are the enemy Solars. I suggest infiltrating the camp in disguise and making sure they get sent off on a wild goose chase - either somewhere they won't get in the way, or, preferably, into an ambush where we can jump them. --[[User:Rask|Rask]] 14:23, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
*Best Woman: Fallen Petals
:*If we do take over the flagship, we should fly away with it while shooting at pursuers. This plan has a pre-packaged exit strategy. [[User:Peel|Peel]] 14:30, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
*Bridesmaids: Singular Hope, Fragrance
*Venue: TBA
*Date: TBA
*Guest List: Lightning Sabre of Resolution, TBA


*Alternate Objective: take over the army for ourselves. Tentative plan as follows.
== Questions for the GM ==
:*Remove enemy Solars from premises through deception or distraction.
:*Spread rumours conductive to our plan in the camp, while working under disguise.
:*Make it taboo to point out that god-king Cal is actually the enemy.
:*Use emotion-affecting Charms to make army susceptible to the next part of plan.
:*Cal shows up and explains to the troops why they should respect and worship him. Liberal use of brainwashing Charms is advised.--[[User:Rask|Rask]] 14:23, 11 April 2010 (UTC)


*Alternate Approach: Get a man (Daimyo) inside to spread some disinformation beforehand.
Put your OOC questions here and annoy Koffee into answering/confirming/drinking/TPK (not always in that order).<br>
:*Create institutional belief: 'The tower has been temporarily disabled. It must be immediately attacked by the fleet to capitalise on this.'


*Yet Another Alternate Approach: Sneak inside and apply poison to food and water supplies.
*If I take a demon's shape using Green Sun Child, I get its physical and appearance-related attributes, but I don't get any essence-based powers. Do I get its other qualities that are innate to it (like the unnatural beauty of the agatae, that makes people need to fail their Compassion rolls to attack them unless said agatae is attacking)? --[[User:Bossmuff|Bossmuff]] 01:12, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 
*Available Assets: Hope can, with all her 4th appearance augs installed, cloak an additional 9 people besides for her. As long as nobody can pierce Optical Shroud there that should be enough stealth if nobody actively tries to sabotage it.
:*Optical Shroud protects against sight (but not essence sight/other weird sight modes) and hearing, but can be pierced by superhuman smell. Try to avoid dogs, please.
:*It also only makes you invisible if you move less than 4 yards a second. Probably not too important, but it's there.
:*You weak fleshy people can't run indefinitely at 30 miles an hour. Some possible solutions? --[[User:MJ12 Commando|MJ12 Commando]] 15:25, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
:*Demons can dematerialize and thus don't have to be cloaked, since anything that can detect a dematerialized demon (Essence Sight) can also detect a cloaked one.
 
===Establishing Regional Support===
*Cal and Daimyo travel to nearby kingdoms to engender regional pride (Cal) and the belief that the shogunate imperialists must be ejected (Daimyo). [[User:Peel|Peel]] 14:30, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

  • If I take a demon's shape using Green Sun Child, I get its physical and appearance-related attributes, but I don't get any essence-based powers. Do I get its other qualities that are innate to it (like the unnatural beauty of the agatae, that makes people need to fail their Compassion rolls to attack them unless said agatae is attacking)? --Bossmuff 01:12, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
