Um thought: Why not Develop Underwater transport next turn? we have mastered control of the air, So whats stopping us from making staves of "massive Bubble formation" and marching our men under their navy to their shores, and attacking them in a way they would never expect?

The fact that a Phoenix revised to carry massive amounts of troops would work better for that purpose?

Or just dry goods in general. Make it cheaper and we've got a good logistics transport.

Will logistics actually get us anything?

It'll help get more bombs to the front, meaning the arstotzkans would be under heavier bombardment from the skies.

I mean, maybe? It seems to me like running out of explosives would be a mentionable item in BRs.

That said, having an airship with a payload of nothing but shells/grenades would make for an interesting adaptation to the "FLAMES" method.

Strange Thoughts of mine:
Really oversized Scroll based "Drop pod" Troop and supply movement, Aka Large adamantium Tin can is Loaded with people/things, People/things get strapped/Chained/Bolted/Held down, And it gets shot Like a Really big bullet in the general direction of wherever we need it/'em.
Adamantium Scroll Torpedos: What the name implies.
Anti-Antimagic: Aka Flood the area with magic, Possibly causing magic misfires on people not expecting it, and making the detecting of magic a bit... Spotty at best.
"Scroll" Based ballista missiles: What the name implies.
Electeric Armor: Fill adamantium with lightning, Fly VERY CLOSE to the ground REALLY QUICKLY.
Blessed Lightning batterys: Can you guess?

Okay, so, guys, we haven't chosen a revision. If nobody else suggests something (sensible), I'm just going to vote for a compass.

I think we should redesign the SkyHawk to be much faster. Even if it has to way overshoot a target, turn around slowly somewhere out of range, then come back that's better than what it'll currently do. Best way I can think of is to rework the adamantium scrolls to pull more air through faster.

Different Thought: change adamantium to give us control over it's Weight, Allowing us to at least moderately reduce the weight of our Ships, Increasing speed in a different manner.

It's already as light as leather. Make it any lighter and it'll just get blown away in the... Wait. That's what we want. It's perfect!

I think strength control is more important; no matter how light the material is if it can't withstand a good amount of force it's not really viable.

Consider this from a different angle: we summon adamantium as bricks, If we were to make those bricks weigh 1/4th a ton each and build walls out of them, How much more force would be Required to hit the people behind the walls?

A lot. But we don't have any castles to build out of them; not to mention our advantage is on the offence, not defense. Better strength will help our aircraft survive AA fire, boost our infantry and generally make the material more resilient.
