Deploy action fails, Hyderabad remains a sovereign state. No “significant” losses. No further deploy actions are possible, so over to @COMaestro as the President of Bengal, and @GeeBizzle as commander of the Army of Bengal.

@GeeBizzle, would you show the local government the might of our forces please?

After that, and the trade spot opens up again, I will make a couple of trades.

The army is unlikely to achieve anything without funds, and the cheapest local alliances are somewhat more expensive than elsewhere: I’m seeing £4 for 2 strength (Jagat Seths and Gwalior) and £2 for 1 strength (Orissa) in the screencap. It might save a little time if you state how much money you are willing to provide.

@COMaestro Happy to turn the troops against the locals but feel we may need support. How much of a war chest can I rely upon to drum up support?

Re Hyderabad: How dismaying!

We barely got out alive!

If only The Nizam had held up their end of the bargain. That was the problem, clearly all their fault.

Take £6 to hire some forces.

Go big!!!nl!

Wait does it cost anything to activate our regiment?

No. However:

  1. They do get a share of the loot though.
  2. They won’t play defence if shit happens in the province that a company governor controls

I will procure the efforts of the Jagat and Orrisa. And deploy all troops in Bengal. Which I think would be 4 dice. Can someone confirm for me before I take the roll?

I think it’s 5 as you have an officer?

I thought it was 5 - 1 for the tower.

Yep. That’s correct

@GeeBizzle asked for a die roll:
4d6: 4 + 1 + 1 + 3 = 9

Looks like the locals didn’t stand a chance.

I’ll let our officers roll and check for their own losses. Think it’s @Whistle_Pig

They died so we could all prosper from the noble act of selling some class A drugs.
