Judgement 12

• Assembly: Highguard National
• Raised By: Nina (?) of Felix's Watch
• Judgement: All that is worthwhile is shared with those who deserve it. Let us open our doors to those Urizeni who have lost everything and give them a home until the day comes when they can return. We send Nina (?) with 25 liao to bring those who have lost everything to Reikos where they can be given succour the Druj meance is no more.

Judgement 14

• Assembly: General Assembly
• Raised By: Rafael Barossa di Tassato
• Judgement: The works of Almodin Oktístis are an affront to the dignity of the Empire; they denigrate our truth faith and demean the Pride of Imperial citizens. We send (named priest) with 50 liao to lead Imperial citizens to destroy these statues. Let us follow the example of Ivarsgard and create a lasting covenant to show the world the fate of all false religions.
• Outcome: Upheld (742 - 646; margin 96). If endorsed, this mandate would inspire architects, masons, and builders to force their way into the buildings designed by the Asavean priest. The images of false gods would be carefully and meticulously removed and then repurposed in such a way as to provide a lasting symbol of opposition for the Asaveans and their faith.

Judgement 15

• Assembly: Highguard National
• Raised By: Yarona of the Chantry
• Judgement: The Way of Virtue is the faith of the Empire. The strength of our true faith is what makes the Empire powerful. We send Yarona of the Chantry with 25 liao to urge the grey pilgrims to bring all humanity to the true faith but to leave the orcs to find their own way across the abyss.
• Outcome: Upheld (489 - 54). Urges the Grey Pilgrims to avoid trying to spread the Way to the barbarian or foreign orcs.

Judgement 16

• Assembly: Dawn National
• Raised By: Ser Ancél Watcher
• Judgement: The taint of the Druj spills forth from the pillars they have constructed with their foul magic, choking the thirst for glory with fear and dread. We send Ser Ancél Watcher with 25 doses of liao to urge troubadours and questing knights to seek out the source of this vile corruption
• Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (134 - 0). TBC.
• Notes: The opportunity is detailed here

Judgement 20

• Assembly: Imperial Orc National
• Raised By: Skywise Tulva
• Judgement: The orcs freed from bondage in Dubhtraig are not yet safe. They have heard our invitation, and sought to reach us, but now they are scattered across the Empire alone and afraid. In the name of Prosperity, we send Skywise Tulva with 25 doses of liao to urge every Imperial Orc to put their hand in their pocket to ensure that those endeavouring to bring them home to us receive the just reward for their labours.
• Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (100 - 0). If this mandate is upheld and enacted, then every farm, business, herb garden, forest, mine, mana site, and fleet owned by an Imperial Orc will suffer a one rank penalty to its production following the Spring Equinox. In return, however, any military unit that supports the Escort the Orcs action will receive a reward equivalent to half what they would have gained from doing Paid Work.

Judgement 56

• Assembly: League National
• Raised By: Astrid Fjellrevening Rezia di Tassato
• Judgement: Lorenzo Macelliao von Temeschwar is a true inspiration, and the colossus of Sarvos serves as an inspiration to the virtuous people of the League. The Imperial synod sends Astrid Fjellrevening Rezia di Tassato with one dose of true liao to consecrate the colossus to the virtue of Pride in recognition of its inspirational nature.
• Outcome: Upheld (122-34). the named priest would be able to consecrate the Colossus with a dose of true liao.

Judgement 78

• Assembly: Pride Virtue
• Raised By: Ubarius of Invidia Citadel
• Judgement: The works of Almodin Oktístis are an affront to the dignity of the Empire; they denigrate our truth faith and demean the Pride of Imperial citizens. We send Ubarius of Invidia with 50 liao to lead Imperial citizens to destroy these statues. Let us follow the example of Ivarsgard and create a lasting covenant to show the world the fate of all false religions.
• Outcome: Upheld (108 - 97; margin 11). This mandate was in competition with Judgement 14. The latter judgement gained a greater margin and will be the one enacted.

Judgement 79

• Assembly: Marches National
• Raised By: Friar John of the Mourn
• Judgement: Any Imperial soldier who is here to defend the land will always find a bed and a meal is available to them for a night's rest. But those who are able and willing to work as best they can may stay a while longer. We send {named priest} with 100 doses of liao to encourage Marchers to share their Prosperity with those Imperials who deserve it.
• Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (96 - 0). Will allow any Imperial army to take the new billet order in Marcher territory with access to the Imperial Breadbasket.

Judgement 82

• Assembly: Freeborn National
• Raised By: Luis i Guerra
• Judgement: Armies require mithril, and the Burning Falcon is no exception. Mithril is expensive and in short supply. The Freeborn look to the example of the Corsairs to guide the way. Our enemies have mithril aplenty, and it is only right that we take it from them and use it to raise an army against them. We send Luis i Guerra with 50 doses of liao to urge the soldiers of the Red Wind Corsairs and the Fire of the South to find the mithril we need to restore the Burning Falcon!
• Outcome: Upheld with a greater majority (166 - 0). If the mandate is enacted, for the next year the Freeborn armies will be on the look-out for any opportunity to acquire mithril. During that period the general of the Fire of the South will be able to issue the Plunder order in addition to the normal orders they can issue. If they do use this order, or if the Red Wind Corsairs use their Daring Raid order, they are likely to see a small increase in the amount of resources they take and they will be significantly more likely to acquire mithril rather than either weirwood or white granite as part of the spoils they receive.

Judgement 100

• Assembly: Varushka National
• Raised By: Raskylov
• Judgement: The wealth of our nation lies in the hills and forests, and in the hands of those who work them. We send Raskylov with 50 doses of liao to encourage those who seek prosperity for themselves and their nation to look to the riches that lie in the mines and forests.
• Outcome: Upheld with Primacy (172 - 0). Has several effects including urging Varushka to embrace farms and mines.

Judgement 102

• Assembly: Pride Virtue
• Raised By: Vasili Zoryakovich Zverokaz
• Judgement: We the Pride Assembly send Vasili Zoryaovich Zverokaz to Ossium with 75 doses of liao to preach that "The virtues inspire others to greatness; they do not demean them."
• Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (227 - 0). If enacted, the named priest will approach the population of Ossium to speak to them about the virtue of Pride.
• Notes: The opportunity is detailed here

Judgement 112

• Assembly: Urizen National
• Raised By: Aurum of the Nightingale Temple
• Judgement: No-one knows when Zenith will be liberated, we must help those who have lost everything, until the time comes to fight back. We send Aurum of the Nightingale Temple with 25 liao to urge everyone to take in the refugees and help them build a new life in Morrow and Redoubt.
• Outcome: Upheld with a Greater Majority (129-0). If the mandate is enacted, then refugees will travel Redoubt and Morrow looking for somewhere to settle.
• Notes: The opportunity is detailed here

Judgement 122

• Assembly: Assembly of the Nine
• Raised By: Onan of the Chantry
• Judgement: The Grey Pilgrims will help spread the Way and weed out the corruption of false beliefs in the Empire. We send Lilith of the Chantry with 25 liao to spread the news that the pilgrims enjoy the support and blessing of this assembly.
• Outcome: Upheld with a greater majority (7 - 0). The mandate encourages Imperial citizens to accept the sermons of the grey pilgrims which would make their mission more effective. But it also reminds the pilgrims that they act with the blessing of the Imperial Synod - and that the guidance of the Synod is available to them when needed.
