Castle Game: Heart Soldier Senshi

[idolpro]

[Suddenly, you hear the wailing of a horn. Outside, tension is turning to panic. You can't see anything, but you can hear people gathering up their things, sobbing in fear or speaking in harsh whispers. A lone voice calls from the distance:

The enemy approaches!

Upon the map, an unfamiliar geography appears -- several small nations, clustered together. Outside of them, an endless sea of enemy forces, identified only by a symbol of a cracked skull. Each of the small nations is marked with a flag in one unit's colour, and a tiny model of a castle.

You are at war. How will you protect your people and yourself?

[ Don't be sorry. ]

Then please be honest with yourself and don't suggest stealing.

... Playing hard enough to preserve our lives is the agreement we made before.

Obviously my personal feelings are different.

Even if we stole all three, it's obvious at least someone has been stealing from us a little along the way--we've held steady at four when we ought to have seven by now. It's theoretically possible that we could steal all three from someone and still lose enough not to make it to the next tier.

[ A vague murmur of agreement ]

... I suspect the teams playing hard have been preying on those with a lower score, on the assumption they won't be able to win anyway.

[ sigh. ]

In that case, we may want to go with Prim's suggestion instead. We don't want Pep!Pep! to suffer the worst fate, but--we should avoid it ourselves, too, if we can.

[ we're definitely lower tier so. people may see us as easy kills. ]
