You all weren't seriously supposed to call a Crusade.


Seriously.

You can't say I didn't warn you.

Kale should probably back down now. The church isn't bluffing.

It not like everybody wants a Crusade within the church. There are some vocal opposition to it.

They can be removed or silenced.

This is a cheap crusade, too. It's not even targeted to destroy Phantaria, unless Phantaria forces the church's hand. It's just about protecting Terran. All Phantaria has to do is back off and the crusade will basically be done.

Church may not be bluffing, but it shall be the will and enthusiasm of the faithful Theocracies to uphold it. Who knows how long it will take for the crusaders to actually mobilize.

lol.

You think they're just now starting to mobilize?

Basically, this crusade started when two things happened:
1. Mathurin said defending Terran would be a good cause for a theocracy
2. Phantaria declared war

It just took a little while to get the official nod. But realistically, planning and early mobilization began then.

Even if preparations already begun, it remains to be see what can be pulled off. I wouldn't expect very high movement rates to come in Terran's defense...

Seeing as last time Gustav was commanding the most powerful unit when the Farronite Republic came down to stop Saffalore, you can guarantee that at least 1000 CS won't be coming at all...

A few weeks is about all Terran can aspire to. ;)

War declarations from 5-6 realms could be enough to subdue Phantaria. Yay, war protests?

Only to then see Terran revolt.

And a Phantaria-Saffalore-Aurvandil-Falkirk axis rise up against the church and the rest of the 'moot.

Yeah, the way I figure it, 80 Rinnon Riders (80/70) more than make up for it  8)
What is Freedom? - ye can tell; That which slavery is, too well; For its very name has grown; To an echo of your own

T'is to work and have such pay; As just keeps life from day to day; In your limbs, as in a cell; For the tyrants' use to dwell

They won't be, if they don't attack Terran.
