Celestial+Empire+EoT+13


 * Celestial Empire**


 * Requesting x amount of random growth for this turn.**

1. The MIL is how much we're sending to help France defend itself. Just noting here that I used some ESPD below to conceal my troop movements and make it look like my forces are still at home. 2. I will declare war on Spain like France asked if there is any fighting at the EOT. 3. The MOR will be used to try and boost the country's morale. I feel that it's their weakest point. My reinforcements showing up may help, but for fluff purposes I'd like a grand public speech to be made by Saladin to the people of France. If a French leader is willing to join him, that would be great. They will speak of the great defensive display shown by France and her allies and hopefully the Celestial Empire's joining the cause will help to turn the tides in their favor against the ruthless Spain. They have no need to fear, etc. etc.
 * France [MIL: +++++ +++, MOR: +++++ ++-]**

1. I hope the amount burned is appropriate for this sort of thing. Also, I'm counting on this happening after the military stuff as economic attacks do. I don't want KH to change their military strategy based on their complete lack of ECO (hopefully). 2. This is an economic attack against them, obviously. +++ burned, the rest used to aid the attack. We've mostly hashed this out, so I won't go into too much detail. I'd like to do the typical attack, buying up their businesses, seizing control of their markets, taking complete control of their economy.
 * Knights Hospitallers [ECO: +++ p. ECO, +++++ +++++ +++++ t. ECO]**

1. Thelonius had warned me and asked before bringing up the Slaver Wasp stuff, so if it's possible to get a circumstantial bonus for knowing this was going to happen and that our name could be brought into it, that'd be cool. If not, that's fine too. 2. Our reputation will be used to convince Agatha and the people in Italy to our perspective, along with Thelonius's. The Celestial Empire was not complicit in making use of Slaver Wasps. In fact, we supported University of Celaenae in their production of a Revenant Detector. (sort of, heh. That's what WO is for.) I'll suggest that Italy become the primary focus of Agatha & co's attention and taking care of that situation while still suggesting that Spain comes next, after Italy is handled. In other words, I want to keep Agatha pointed towards Spain despite dealing with the Slaver Wasps and completely away from me, protecting my country even if there shouldn't be any leftover evidence that we ever even thought about researching Slaver Wasps. I'd just rather it not even get to the point of them wanting to look into us, just in case.
 * Italy [WO: +++++ +]**

1. Our resources at home are being dedicated to producing and training more military. ++++ MIL will be training while acting as the defenses for University of Celaenae and the Celestial Empire. They'll be training specifically with the +++ ESPD. Since espionage is one of my strengths, I'd like these troops to be trained in guerrilla tactics, strategic formations, stealth, and taking advantage of information to maximize efficiency - all of which tend to fall under the category of espionage. So they'll be training largely with my agents to pick up some of those tactics to increase their MIL effectiveness. 2. The +++++ + ECO will be channeled through University of Celaenae's superior military factories to produce more MIL for the Celestial Empire.
 * Projects At Home [MIL: ++++, ECO: +++++ +, ESPD: +++]**

1. I'm using my espionage to do the sweep I promised them for any infiltrations. Also, I'll be using a small bit to hide the fact that the one Spark represented by - SPK is communicating with the Celestial Empire as mentioned under the SPK category. 2. While we're in there looking around, I'd like to note any hidden stats they have, particularly MIL or ESP. Or any plans against the Celestial Empire or that contradict ours. And lastly, I'd like an idea of their political structure. We all know they're not just there to be a University since we know their origins, so I'd like to know how their leadership structure works.
 * Checking Out the University [ESPD: +++++ ++]**

===================

1. ++++ will be used for "Projects At Home". 2. +++++ +++ will be used for "France".
 * Military: +++++ +++++ ++**

1. + gained from Loki's Brigade attack (included in stat score). 2. +- gained from selling ++ SPK to University of Celaenae (included in stat score. 3. Sold influence in Corscia for ++ p. ECO and +++++ +++++ t. ECO (included in stat score). 4. Anticipating ++ ECO from France from our investment (as per usual, not included in stat score until next turn). 5. +++ burned in "Knights Hospitallers". 6. +++++ +++++ + of the rest of our economy will go towards backing it up as well as ++++ t. economy that we have from Italy all for "Knights Hospitallers". 7. +++++ + will go towards "Projects At Home".
 * Economy: +++++ +++++ ++++ (+++++ +++++ t.)**

1. +++++ ++- will go towards "France". 2. + p. MOR increase from random growth last turn.
 * Morale: +++++ ++-**

1. Selling ++ SPK to University of Celaenae for +- ECO. 2. There is a condition on - of the SPK, though. The University has full use of his talents, but I want to keep him loyal to the Celestial Empire just for the sake of having an inside man. I'll use ESPD to conceal his loyalties and any messaging between us.
 * Spark: ++**

1. Used during the strike on Loki's Brigade.
 * Offensive Espionage: +++++ +++++ +-**

1. I would like to offer France a defensive espionage alliance to help protect them from an espionage attack. I'll warn them that I think it's probable that Kingdom of the Beshadowed Sun will coordinate with Spain and others to make an espionage strike. 2. Affirming my continued defensive espionage alliance with GAoOT, UoC, and Russia. 3. +++++ will be used to do what we can to conceal the departure of our troops to France and to make it look like we have an intimidatingly high number of troops back home. If it's not enough to conceal enough of them, at least part of them would be nice. This is to try and deter attackers. 4. +++ will be used for "Projects at Home". 5. +++++ ++ will be used on "Checking out the University".
 * Defensive Espionage: +++++ +++++ +++++**

1. +++++ + will go towards "Italy".
