As a kid, Lelouch vowed to destroy Britannia or something, but how was he
going to do that without the Geass or rich or powerful allies besides Suzaku
and the Ashford family? It's not like the Japanese were using or planning to
use him or Nunnally as double agents or anything like that, or were they?

Anytime pre-Geass, did he actually stand a chance of exacting his childhood
revenge?

On Lelouch's grudge


During the beginning of the series when he was on his way to class and he
ended up fighting in the garage is the "start" of the ability to get revenge.
If he couldn't get revenge there would be no show, so he gains power more and
more as the series progresses onward. The entire plot was based around his
revenge so that was also more of a backstory explaining why he hated Britannia
thus setting way for his awesome revenge and brilliant use of people's
emotions to make the people of Britannia realize they should work together and
stop hating their political leaders.

There is no real answer since it doesnt exist! But based on what happened in
the story, Lelouch visited a "underground" type club? to play chess, so there
is a possibility that he he already had connections in the underground world.
Also by Anime logic the fact that he was so smart, the main character would
find a way..

This is more of a discussion of opinions than a direct question..!

When Lelouch made his vow to Suzaku to destroy Britannia this was more of a
child venting his frustration at how powerless he was as he was seeing a close
friend's homeland be ravaged by the same ideals he thought claimed his
mother's life and crippled his sister.

When Lelouch got Geass in his monologue he points out how he was living as a
zombie just going though the motions of living but not really living. so
between when he made his vow and when he got Geass Lelouch appeared to accept
reality that all he could do was look after Nunnally, at least until an
opportunity came which would allow him to fight back (which Geass was)

Also i should point out that there was no way the Ashford Family could help
him even if he did do something as a child. after Marianne's death the Ashford
Family, who were her supports, lost alot of standing.

The only other thing he could try and do is unify the Resistance Factions but
as we could see when he first tried commanding them they weren't fully
trusting at first and when things went wrong the second time the group he was
commanding abandoned him. really the only reason he gained so much support and
fame with the resistance factions was because of his miracles brought on by
his Geass

So unless C.C contacted Lelouch much much earlier there was really no way he
could put up any sort plan to undermine and destroy Britannia
