Speaking as someone who has Stealth in class, I am quite in favor of high Stealth requirements.

Fair enough, every skill deserves time in the sun. Still...maybe it should be high stealth required OR gain Infamy. I mean, if you're good enough to not get caught then no one knows it was you.

"Let the masters of siege warfare show you a thing or two."
How does that saying go? "Pride comes before a victory?" It's something like that...

Pride cometh before smashing a hole in their tiny city and we laugh and roast marshmallows on the fire.

Then that mission would be different then any other mission in the entire game. I think it's fine where it stands. Otherwise Jay would have to start doing a whole new series of coding, and if he's going to do that, I'd rather it be on new features for the interact page then people worrying about a little infamy. (btw, love the gift giving ) Even I soiled my no infamy streak during this war. So if it's something you really want to do, a little infamy won't kill ya....it'll just limit your options with the guard post. ;P

What about the Mantis clan action? When will that be resolved?

I must say, this would be the perfect time for the advent of the Daidoji Harriers as a game option

I know Infamy well, I had just finished working off 40+ when this started, then I took 20 just to support Hantei.
There is a Daidoji Harriers technique now that you get for mastering the new action.

I'm curious: how will the respective successes of both sides be measured in the end? I guess Jay-sama will add up the number of clicks on the two crane actions and the four crab actions, right? Or are some actions meant to help one side get drops required to achieve the others (this could make sense for the supply crab troops action, although I don't what it actually drops). Besides, will proportions be taken into account or will this be a clear-cut win/lose situation? I guess my question is whether it would change something for the Cran to lose with a 10-90 ratio or a 49/51... Defining a strategy without a clue on these subjects can be somewhat problematic. Jay-sama, if you read this...

While I agree with you Enishi, I can also understand Jay's position that revealing too much will loose some of the magic of seeing Rokugan through our character's eyes and not just as a game of numbers.

I see your point on this, Tomatsu-sama, and will go with whatever Jay-sama decides. I'm only asking because in this particular case, the options outlined can make the difference between heroic damage control and hopeless waste of time - and the latter has always been a big turn-off for me in games. Thank you nonetheless for answering me.

It is quite understandable that the Crab army get a huge advantage on its progression. The Crane is (sadly) getting its payback for protecting Toshi Ranbo instead of their lands.
This said, I expect the same to happen on the Wall, where the Crab should suffer the weakening of their garnison, since their main army is on the road. A massive attack from Shadowland forces could put the Crab clan in some Jeopardy. They would then have to "really" choose if they continue on their rampage in Crane lands or if they return to prevent major incursions in their own turf.

If the Shadowlands chooses now to attack the Crab.
IF.
