Best Phase Objectives for Frostvar?

Having run my net assessment on my own group’s newly burned world, Frostvar, one Phase Objective leaps out for each side: The Vaylen want to weaken the planet’s Quarantine from “Advanced” to “Loose”; the Humans want to change the Planetary Attitude from “Indifferent” to “Personal Experience.”

Or am I missing something? Here are the details for the world as we head into our first actual maneuver, probably Wednesday night:

Seems like a decent strategy. It really comes down to how each side wants to color the phase.

I’m rather fond of going straight for the throat of a FoN. Take out the guy who’s most clearly opposed to your Usurpation FoN’s interests!

(It’s not clear to me that the GM gets to write a new one to take his place in that phase – the PC isn’t per se dead, just out of commission as a FoN. I don’t think it’s against “the rules” but it certainly seems unsporting.)

p.

If you remove a character as FoN, he can’t make the Prequel roll. If he’s still alive and part of the game/world/setting, he can still participate in the maneuver. If he’s been killed/destroyed, he can’t make any rolls at all! If he’s been killed and removed as FoN, you’ve just compiled insult and injury!
