Last ditch attempt at getting something useful…
Pay two more supply to search the discard with the truthful harp.
Use tavern singers to peek at the discard
Spend two supply to search the discard without the harp.
I’ll immediately use those 4 supply to search the world deck, using the truthful harp.
Worked for me in my last game! 
I’ll discard the tavern singers to play the master of disguise as an advisor, and discard the rest of the cards in order from left to right.

Use Spirit Snare to gain a favour from the Discord bank
Spend two supply to travel to the salt flats
Spend a favour for a rest at the Wayside Inn to gain two supply.
Campaign against @COMaestro at the salt flats, targeting the site and the banner, for an ill-advised last stand. Using all two of my brave warbands (and sticky fire, if it becomes relevant)

I use Longbows to subtract one attack die.
Defence pool: 7 dice
Attack pool: 1 die
Defence roll: 12+5=17
Attack roll: 2 (1 skull)
Campaign fails, no-one is interested in giving up Blue’s secrets.
1 supply left, but I don’t see any options left. Black rests.
@yashima is up.

Time for another machiavellian yashima play.
This time I fully expect betrayal of the chancellor and to take control of all the banners.

What did I do to raise such expectations? Oo…. Well now I have to try. Give me a few moments to look at the board and… figure out how to make the game last one more round

Okay, let’s get started.
- If I read this right, I have 5 supply, 2 secrets and 0 favor at the start of my turn.
- So I use my 2 Secrets (burning one) to gain 4 Favor from my Alchemists as a minor action. “This has cost me so many secrets.” The Alchemists just shrug, take my secret throw it in their cauldron and hand me 2 favor from the Hearth and Discord banks each.
- I immediately spend 2 supply and 2 favor and use my Ring of Devotion to muster 4 troops each at the Keep and Second Wind for a total of 8 purple meeples. “My army is growing.” Glances at @COMaestro and the Darkest Secret. “That is mine!”
- I then use 1 favor to acquire some Tents to travel to the Salt Flats for 0 Supply
- “I think my army isn’t big enough, yet.” So for my last 1 favor and 1 Supply I muster one more time to find another 4 troops at the Wayside Inn to add to the army…
- With my final 2 supply, I begin my long-awaited campaign to return the Darkest Secret to its rightful owner: ME! I intend to use the Lancers which I will send in first and then attack @Comaestro targeting the Darkest Secret and nothing else. I commit all my troops to the attack and… shout “Go get it!!!”

But where is the betrayal?

Hey, those are my Lancers!
Bring it on cream puff! (Seriously, that’s how I see the White pawn)
Longbows active to remove 1 attack die.

Unlike some people, once I commit, I tend to not backstab… Mr. Yellow U-Boat 
Also there was nothing for me to gain by backstabbing the chancellor… so make of that what you will, either I am an honorable Cloud (creampuff? Pah!) or a pragmatic one… either way I am going to rain purple lances on that blue pirate.

Note that White is not using the Lancers, as they are ruled by Blue, and White must also target the site.
Defence pool: 7
Attack pool: 11
Defence roll: 12+5=17
Attack roll: 10 (2 skulls)
To win, White must sacrifice 8 more warbands, and does so, seizing the Darkest Secret and burning 2 secrets from it.
Blue loses 2 warbands, who go into the Cursed Cauldron to emerge as purple warbands.
White cannot take control of the site, due to Ring of Devotion, so it reverts to the bandits.
I see no further actions that can be taken, so White Rests.
@COMaestro is up.
(One more shield and that would have been a failed campaign!)

Sorry for the delay. And this will never work.
2 Supply to Travel to the Lush Coast.
Use 1 Supply to trade 1 Secret with the Disgraced Captain for 2 Favor.
Another Supply to Trade 1 Secret with Welcoming Party for 2 more Favor.
1 Favor with Extra Provisions to Muster some Warbands.
2 Supply to Travel back to the Salt Flats.
Spend 1 Favor at the Wayward Inn for 2 Supply.
Campaign for the Banner of Darkest Secrets, using Longbows for a +1.
@yashima I assume you are using Extra Provisions and Cursed Cauldron. Are you also using Fire Talkers?
The campaign is currently 6 attack dice, 5 warbands, vs. 5 defence dice, 4 warbands.
EDIT: Yashima could not use Extra Provisions, but fortunately this does not affect the result: the Chancellor joins as an Ally, meaning the Oathkeeper die is applied.

Which is why this will never work!
I am using Fire Talkers, yes.
For +3, right?
