"The plan looks as complete as I can make it at this point. What I really need is as much constructive criticism as possible. The only proviso is don't bitch about cost. I am aware that this is a long range, expensive plan. I'm prepared for that.

What I'm looking for are things I have missed off. Anything you think I will need to survive, or make life easier. Get to poking holes in it people, it's the best way to learn."

They have the skills to provide your fort with everything it needs. What exactally do they need with you? Your one bullet away from going from king to corpse. Have you considered this and prepared for it?"
