Yeah, let's not count on people leaving us alone. Dreylin was strolling with a large stack in pindiland when dtay attacked pindicator. He did not do anything, but it looked more like an attempt to help pindi than steal his land. And that shrine is so delicious that practically everyone in the neighborhood should be at least making some thoughts about it. We'll see if dtay wants to fight for it.
--> Finishing pindi off in vacuum would now be pretty trivial and fast, but due to possible pressure we need to pay attention and consider bringing reinforcements, incl. couple of cannons in the north. If everything with pindi goes well and we want further land it probably will happen in the north as well. (I'm not trying to discount my comment about looking strong enough in our core that BGN+dtay don't get bad ideas there)
130 WW is not too bad, but we will feel the effect. I think Azza war gave us something similar and Mardoc war was 200+ IIRC.
Overall, this was a successful first turn.
Of course the big downside compared to original plan (due to pindi moving his stack 2 tiles east) was the fact that we did not take Avernus and aren't yet threatening the shrine city with infantry. And that pindi still has 10 CKNs left, which isn't a huge problem, but still something that we need to take into account with our movements.Great report, OH
