Did we make some sort of gun powder?

[Madman198237]

Actually, we revised our Firestorm shells and grenades so they explode better. It improved the explosive liquid and made the shell into brittle iron for that fragment-y effect.

Incidentally, for the Design Credit:

We are very impressed by the Saint's magic show. Let us impress him in turn with a magic show of our own, featuring:
-The Miraculous Levitating Lady! No tricks, no wires! Just a dress with levitation spells woven into it (very dangerous, do not operate more than 3' off the ground).
-al-Sakin's Knife Throwing Expertise! Gasp in amazement as the wonderous al-Sakin throws knives at a beautiful damsel tied to a spinning wheel! Not one drop of blood shall be shed! And all it takes is some extremely powerful 'Maghnats' behind the wheel, plus Lucky Strike.
-We Could Do The Mind-Reading Card Trick But He Already Did It So Never Mind!
-The Endless Handkerchiefs Interlocking Metal Rings! How many can he pull out of his sleeve? They never end! Because they're made of Adamantium, and he is summoning them into existence.
-Fantastic Firebreathers! Gasp as mortal men breathe gouts of flame, like mythical beasts! Drinking Arak spiked with Alnnar will do that to you.
-[Anyone else got any ideas?]

Could use a few extra magic tricks to round out the show, if anyone can think of any.

Pick a man out of the lineup! Think of a number! Invent a completely random word in your head! I'm sure I can guess it!

Another one:
Look how I can make it rain everywhere but on me! Screw that tree in particular.

The Most Amazing Light Show You've Ever Seen, Lit Up With Light Bulbs And Powered With Pure Wrath Of God Himself

The Tiniest Perpetual Tornado
You see a glass case of 3m^3 that is filled with coloured sand. Within you can see an everspinning tornado that picks up the coloured sand and swhirls it around. The tornado, though being tiny, is unresting and keeps on spinning, painting pictures of chaotic awe with the coloured sands it picks up.

So, I asked eS in Discord. We need to convince him to work with US rather than the Arstotzkans, and it's not necessarily by doing magic tricks.

Perhaps informing him of their unfortunate tendency to behead captured soldiers would be a good idea.

[NUKE9.13]

We could spend the expense credit on something.
Better idea (suggested by SMMI in the Discord): use it to bribe the magician into joining us.
We can still do the magic show, but we just end it with the amazing "Giant pile of gold".

Design Credit > Expense Credit

[evictedSaint]

This years Expense Credit will be spent bribing the Magnificent Saint.

If there is anything else you wish to do with regards to the Saint, please say so now.  Otherwise, combat phase later tonight.

[Iituem]

Did you guys ever agree on doing a show for the Saint as well?  That looked pretty cool.

[Kashyyk]

I believe our plan is to do the magic show,  and for our final act we make the expense credit appear and then give it to him.

[NUKE9.13]

We'd also like to do this. We can end the show with the "Amazing Giant Pile Of Gold"

Well, it became more of a variety show than a magic show... eh, it'll be fine.

[Madman198237]

Oh, and perhaps al-Mutriqa could do a demonstration of Adamantine summoning? Something like "BOOM, instant hat"?

Also, flying demonstration by our princess, possibly including daring stunts and lightning shows from al-Mutriqa?

[NUKE9.13]

I was really going for a "Stage Magician" vibe. I've yet to see a stage magician summon lightning. Or literally summon things out of thin air. Because, in case you hadn't noticed, all of the Saint's magic tricks are possible using mundane means. I'm sure he is actually using magic, and so are we, but if we can keep things in the realm of the faintly plausible, that'd be nice.
