Trying to figure out what People's plans are. You can post here if you get an inkling about what others are up to. Make the information IC. (i.e don't post information the House doesn't know officially).

Breck Dondarrion spoke with Justin on two separate occasions. He is showing signs of separating from King Rodrick but isn't going so far as to openly seeking conspirators yet. At least not from us. He is also very concerned about Cedric Lannister, going so far as to jest about Invasion with King Rodrick.
Queen Selyse remains close to her husband. She seems to be seeking allies to assist her in strengthening and improving his rule. She believes herself to have better influence over the King than she has. (Note: only hours after Justin broached the issue of having Roland released, Roland was "released" only to be presumably murdered.) She was responsible for the break up of Barclay's lands, and is a likely opponent of Dondarrion as a result.

Brandon Royce speaking on behalf of the Vale described Vale-Far Reach Relations as being very close, indicating he trusted our region above all others. Other Vale allies include the Duskdendale Royces. This may create a conflict for us if we are in opposition to Queen Selyse. He expressed outrage regarding the death of Roland Royce, but his general relations with other houses is fairly neutral, they do not have the same animosities we do with the West or Dorne.

In a chance meeting with Lord Fowler, Wencel immediately turned accusatory and aggressive towards Loren despite very tame language from Loren. He was talking with Lord Tully rather amiably before the incident.
The Lord Commander Mychel Lannister and Ser Wulf both came to Alexander's defense, with Ser Wulf provoking a fight which Fowler backed down from. The Lord Commander had corrected Wencel about the start of the Dornish conflict laying the blame clealy at the feet of the Dornish.

Ser Wulf, speaking on behalf of the Harlaw's of the Iron Islands, met with Justin and Loren to discuss alliances for a coming storm. He displayed clear preferences against Dorne and Braavos and asked for the Far Reach to seek out other allies.

Petra Bettley spoke with Lord Justin in the Red Keep Godswood. She made sexual advances towards him, under the guise of offering alliance between Oldtown and Lannisport. Jax of Shallowgrave was sent to her room to negotiate Intelligence sharing, and to seek routes into Lannisport to transport agents. She deferred requesting to speak to either Justin or Flea on the topic. Flea will seek to make arrangements with Petra to open the espionage routes, and Justin will seek to negotiate trade agreements.

We know IC that Qhored, Breck, Peiter, Howland, and now Craych are with us, correct? Is there anyone else we can get on our side? Ollie may be unpredictable but I still think he could be a great asset if we got him to our side.

Do we know IC that Tully and Blackwood are dead? Darry will likely surrender and go over to Rodrick's side, and Howland will be tied up in the Vale for a while. We'll need to fight the Mander and Dorne now to, who seem to be mobilizing against us and Breck

I don't think so, but we can safely surmise that The Riverlands is KOed. The outcome of this battle with the West will determine a great deal. If we crush the Mander, the Dornish may decide that it is in their best interest to hold still.
If Cedric loses to Rodrick at Harrenhal he will likely kneel and we'll have to fight the West too.

True. Our best bet would be to take the Tyrells out of the fight quickly. If we crush them between Highgarden and Horn Hill, we can have Qhored land behind their lines and they'll be done. With any luck we'll capture Craych, and we can force him to stand his men down, they seem to be loyal to him regardless of who's giving him orders.
Breck can't move without exposing himself to the Dornish; right now Blackhaven is just asking to be taken by Fowler, who's in the Boneway with 15,000 men.

Yeah. but he's only got 8,500 men. He can hold Nightsong or Blackhaven, probably not both

well I think he could should try to hold Blackhaven because more men are in the Boneway than the Prince's Pass, plus, after we take the mander we might be able to spare some men to help hold Nightsong

We probably could spare men to help defend Nightsong, we should see if Smith will let us put spies in the Pass and if we see them marching we rush people there to come to their aid.
If we want to force the mander's hand perhaps we should march forces with the religious army (to hide them) and then have them veer off and do a feint somewhere. Something like 7 or 8,000 to force the Mander to march, then the scouting forces pull back after the Mander commits and we can decide whether to fight in the field or at the Keep. We should have the spies we need to send word to the scouting forces that they need to leave.
Although we will need to decide quickly as I sent orders to move the religious army North to KL

Flea's whisperer network picked up a man with blood on his hand transporting two containers to a warehouse. Loren ordered the containers stolen and moved to a safe location since it seemed suspicious where he found out it was very unstable wildfire.
Apparently Brandon Royce also found out and is investigating the matter.

Hope you all are well and happy.
