Board Thread:What Would You Do?/@comment-38248322-20190302035619

You have been given the position of Overlord in a distant unnamed region, in an area bequeathed to you after a series of conflicts lead to your unintended position upon the throne as a ruler of your domain. You have an elite guard of mamono tasked with protecting and satisfying your needs, obeying ever order, save for the ones that, unless absolutely necessary, use excessive violence.

Living in a castle that is suprisingly kept up to date, you decide that your daily life as a ruler has become dull by just lounging around. Having an idea that could change all that, you gather your council of advisors and military strategists, all of whom are mamono. Looking upon your region, plot of land (however large you want the area to be), you tell them you have plans for conquest. Question is, how will you take it over? By means of force, diplomacy, cultural achievements, etc.?

(Note: you can freely change how much you currently own before the takeover, how big a force you possess, stuff like that. However, you can't be in possession of the whole turf to begin with (since there is something not ruled over until you, well, take it over), so that will be the only limiting factor.)
