First - how often would we really use penitentia? It seems potentially useful but the number of actually condemned cultists in our empire has to be vanishingly small and getting smaller as we consecrate worlds.
Re developments, there's also the tech route. The chickens cost 1 research action to get basically +2 food dev actions, and there's a similar tech for medical. We should be able to write-in for more research bonuses. I'd still like to get the planet-cracker, but there are alternate (or synergistic) approaches available.
@HeroCooky my questions.
1. Can we try to propose other tech options that would improve various other developments, or do we need to wait for New Dawn? Off the top of my head I can think of studying the principles behind the planet-cracker for heavy ind, doing a synergistic study of weapon design philosophy of all of the xenos/breakaway states we've run into for military ind, etc.
2. Since it looks like number of free choirs is going to actually be a limiting resource for us, what's the development that would let us improve juvenat production? Was that medical X? Or am I misremembering. Any other way to boost choir/population?
3. Can we focus both of our subversion slots on a single particularly difficult target to make it go faster/smoother? I want to point them at the black cat but they seem big. They do have two planets but the The Talon is the important one. Would pointing subversion at both of their planets be synergistic? Would it work at all?
Devouring Mechadendrite doesn't increase it's productivity, what it does is increase its efficiency, so we can get the full bonus for 25 Choirs (Making it something we can keep on all the time as a passive, I'll take it). Web of Song seems to have jumped in range massively (From adjacent system to three systems out), Break Your Chains lets us target the crowd's anger, and Bound to the Stars is straight up Navigator level warp travel, rather than Warp Abacus level. (A Bad Navigator mind you, but presumably the Level 3 version will qualify as a Good Navigator)
Very, very nice.
Hm. Would our number of Choirs increase better over time if we further improved our Medical Services? They're already getting priority rejuvenat treatments...

So... Do we upgrade the devouring mechadendeite next and hope it upgrades the throughput? It might just upgrade efficiency again which would be a bit unfortunate.
Or sing more songs to get things for our spare choirs to do?

Likely, yeah, I'm thinking there's probably a Song for those too.
Yeah, I'm really kicking myself for sidelining our Psykana so long. We've got a lot of catch up to do, but I think we can get pretty damn sophisticated even now.
So... Do we upgrade the devouring mechadendeite next and hope it upgrades the throughput? It might just upgrade efficiency again which would be a bit unfortunate.

Probably just a further Efficiency Boost to 5% per Choir, which would mean that it'd be a small cost to acquire a permanent x1.5 modifier on all General Action Economy for a tithe of our total Choir force. Right now, it's still uncomfortably pricey, but we have enough Choirs that we can afford it. Getting it down to 10 Choirs would be quite economical for the gain.
Reminder that we can make a Song specifically to boost Infrastructure, we asked about this back in the days. It needs two Melodies we can get from the Kil'drabi.
Hey @HeroCooky! Once you said that a Song to boost our Development was possible. And Development, it's not really about technology progressing - that would be research - it's about the entire nation progressing through community efforts.
So would something like Progress/Community/Family/Unity work?
Really, at this stage, if we can spend five turns doing two (and therefore three) General non-research actions, and spending the third action on Psykana/Research/ship design/fleet construction, we can go places.

I think so too, if my gut feeling is right and finishing the Voxx Primus Population Crisis before the evacuation was finished was worth a Fourth Action, I'd say "Two General on the Black Ash Clan to unfuck our little oversight from earlier, use the free one we got working on an Inf or economic harmonization with the Shipwright's Grove, or starting with the Ashan Buy-Out, then we build an LRAD and use our last action to Sing a Song. We're pretty close to hitting 10 after all.

Generally agree, Though we should figure out what kinds of songs we want to sing. When we hit 10 we'll want 5 similarly themed songs for a symphony. What do you think of the dev-focused song above?
Also when we do the poison gift action we should do the ISC switch to colonization for 6 planets to grab gigachad/the archaotech planets as well as start the black cat subversion?

... Might be in the form of "Shield us from the Influence of the Four", the main risk of Psykana study is Chaos reaching in and throttling you, so you have to painstakingly go through every step.

1. Wait for New Dawn to roll something interesting. If everyone chimed in with technology, you'd min-max the entire thing and I don't care to do that even remotely.
2. You just need more people. So unleash the Thules. (Not literally tho. )
3. Yeah, you can do that. It would be synergistic.

[] [Free] Consecrate In Sacred Sand (Write-In World)
Works of generations started today.
(Gain: A Consecrated World.)

-[] Civilian Infrastructure XVI (0/2)
-[] Heavy Industry VI (1/2) -[] Void Industry XII (0/2)
-[] Medical Services VI (1/2)
-[] Military Industry VI (1/2)
(Gain: A boost in production focusing on the chosen option.)
[] [General] Colonize (Planet/s)
It is time to bring four more worlds into the fold. Thanks to the Kil'drabi becoming our Kin, we can now categorize Frozen, Ash, and Volcanic Worlds as Habitable instead.
(Gain: Four colonized Worlds.
Habitable Worlds: ??? - 1 - Gigachad (Swamp, Boreal Forest, Boreal Swamp, Jungle), ??? - 2 - Gigachad (Small Hills, River Valleys, Atolls), ??? - 3 - Gigachad (Temperate Forests, Spiders, Lush Caves, Spiders, Flowering Savanna, Spiders), Trif - Cretetri (Lilypad Ocean)
Hostile Worlds (-1 Void Industry): Olutia - Grace of the Labors (Dry Tundra), Magisch - Hexe (Arctic and Island)

[] [General] Terraform (Planet) - (Auto-Terraformation - 100.M43)
Thanks to the aid of the Irrita (against payment), we will be able to donate life to planets that do not yet have any of their own.
(Gain: Three Terraformed and Colonized Planets.)
-[] Improved Medical Diagnostics
(Gain: Ilnesses are found, and thus treated, faster, improving QoL for the people of the Federation.) -[] Minaturized Irrita Translation Algorithm
(Gain: The Irrita can now talk to other Federation species without requiring large, bulky, and specialized translators.) -[] Abhuman Medical Advances
(Gain: Improved QoL for Federation Abhumans.) -[] Safely Harmonized Cogitation Equilibrium
(Develop the means to allow multiple brains to communicate and act as a semi-coherent singular entity. Safeguards Included, thanks to New Dawn.) -[] Noosphere Harmonized Interface and Directed Anti-Gravity Military Utilization
(Develop cheaper Noosphere-Access Augmetics and Grav-Chute Infantry.) -[] Small Automata Experiments

(Gain: Standardize 1 [One] 1 DP Ship Equipment across all new Designs.) -[] Shipyard Automatization III (1/3)
(Gain: 1 Frigate every Turn.)
-[] The Shatterprow (1/2)
The counter-part to the Starlance, the Shatterprow does not attempt to project its psychic might ahead of itself but instead focuses on enhancing and hardening the prow of the ship it is attached to, increasing a fearsome ramming attack even further without the need to fire continuously.
(Gain: 5 DP Weapon: Shatterprow. Requires a Choir to operate.) -[] The Starlance (1/2)
Though named after the weapon that annihilated twenty-two Light Cruisers in its first showing against the Federation, the weapon is projected to be far weaker than its namesake, and, far more importantly, will not need a billion sapient souls to fire, nor the weird black stones used as amplyfiers. Situated in the prow of a ship and operated by a Choir, the Starlance projects a beam of psychic might against the enemy in a continuous stream at short ranges, with its destructive potential enhanced if a ship accelerates against its targeted foe.
(Gain: 7 DP Weapon: Starlance. Requires a Choir to operate.) -[] Improved Psyker Staves (0/5)
The ability to create psychic focii is no longer a mere beginner's art within the Glimmering Federation, and with knowledge and familarity comes the ability to strive further than yesterday. With The Sun Melody having become a measuring-stick upon which one can see progress, its is estimated that further refinement will be capable of of reducing the damages incurred into "mere" full-body third-degree burns.
(Gain: Improves Choir efficiency and might when using Songs and Melodies.) -[] Standard Psychic Hoods
Thanks to the work done in figuring out how to psychically atune and shape cloth and metals to weave together into one whole, a "Psychic Hood" for the layperson, the Celestial Choir is eager to not only begin large-scale disseminations of the knowledge and practice, but also delve deeper in their understanding on how they function, and can be improved.
(Gain: Primitive Psychic Hoods are equipment that shields your Psykers from backlash to varying degrees.)

[] [General] Ministry of Subversion, Infiltration, and Interstellar Communication
A new age of peace dawns on the Glimmering Federation, and with it rises the required needs of its various branches and plans to come to fruition, from subverting hostile polities to maintaining friendly relations with good neighbors. Thanks to an expansion in its resources, the Ministry of SIIC can now focus on multiple things at a time.
[] The Grand Gift (0/2)
a newly promoted data specialist within the culture section of SIIC has made an interesting proposal. According to them, the Black Ash Clan, a Feudal Autocracy whose culture can be summed up as "Matriarchal Knight Houses" in three words, would be more susceptible to having its worlds taken without bad blood erupting than previously assumed. The data specialist noted that if we were to not merely introduce ourselves but also deliver a gift of 100 Karnivores to the Black Ash Clan within the same move, we would be able to disguise our efforts to turn Brans as the local population, acting as a gateway to each other's nation, being taken by the Federation. Particularly if we include some carefully curated media focused on the Knight Orders of our nation. This, in turn, may allow us to turn the world by having the local nobles declare the Right of Secession in favor of the Glimmering Federation and aid them in the upcoming Honor Duels to let them emerge victorious, with everyone's honor intact and the banner of the world raised to a new "Queendom."
(Warning: Both Action Costs must be paid in the same Turn.
Gain: The Branus system could be turned, if the Honor Duels are won, to the Federation with relations with the Black Ash Clan intact.)
[] [AUTOMATIC] System Subversion (Choose Two)
With the allocated funds, a slow subversion of a singular system can be undertaken. However, these efforts can be focused and accelerated with dedicated attention.
(Gain: Allows you to slowly convert two [2] random system at a time to the Glimmering Federation without Action cost.)
Malusian - Malus
Suspected Subversion Time: ~10 Years.
Modifiers: N/A.
[] The Family Buy-Out (0/2)
One number here, a comma there, some signatures here and here, and let us all shake hands...
(Gain: Absorb the Ashan Families into the Federation.)
[] Formal Exchange Of Dipomatic Contacts (Watchtower Confederacy/Lords of Eternity/Black Ash Clan)
Just don't mention Brans. In fact, don't send anyone who knows about that. As for the others, prepare long-term mission kits.
(Gain: Chosen polity opens communications with you on a semi-regular basis.)
[] Economic Harmonization - (Shipwright's Grove)
Though the Families/Grove and the Federation have been economically friendly and have closer ties, it is time to bring that relationship even closer together. Sharing a single market with shared standards (Read: The Federations) for people and goods, as well as allowing for foreign investment rights to be granted to both parties will cause both states to benefit and come closer together
(Gain: Closer relations and influence with and over the Shipwright's Grove.)
[] ISC Access - (Ashan Families or Shipwright's Grove)
The Federation's ISCs are eager to spread their markets and customer bases beyond the Glimmering Federation, willing to brave the (relatively safe and profitable) unknown.
(Gain: Disables one random ISC per Turn and improves relations with the Ashan Families/Shipwright's Grove greatly.)
[] [AUTOMATIC] Improve Relations (Choose Two)
Though tedious work, improving relations over time with steady hands instead of bold declarations and treaties will enable more of the latter to be wrought without any complications.
(Targets: Mashan Temple Authority, Van Zandt Free Duchy, Ashan Families, Shipwright's Grove, Black Ash Clan, Black Cat Company.
Gain: Slowly improved relations.)
Van Zandt Free Duchy
Current Relations: Heavy Malding
Trend: Slow Upwards Movement
Modifiers: N/A
Black Ash Clan
Current Relations: Who The Chik-an Fried FUCK Are You People?!
Trend: Establishing Contact (20 Years Left)

[] [Military] Create A [Blazing Sun - 15x War-Packs] or 20x SAGs - [System/s] - [Weight: Light/Medium/Heavy] - [Type: Infantry/Mechanized/Tanks/Augmetic Legion] - [Classification: Sabotage/Assault/Engineering/Demolition/Ogryn/Piscarian/Kil'drabi]
Sabotage Units will focus on raiding and disrupting the enemy with lighting raids and plundering logistics; Assault Units will punch through the enemy in weak points and sow confusion with overwhelming firepower; Engineering Units will focus on creating fortifications and using turrets, mines, and barricades; Demolition Units will be comprised out of heavy weaponry squads with plenty of explosives, from mines to rockets; and Ogryn Units will be Ogryns armored in heavy metals and armed with shields and Beatin' Sticks led by soldiers with spiffy hats that will not be disobeyed. Piscarians are adept at wielding heavy equipment for long periods of time, but struggle in high-temperature environs. Kil'drabi Units can go into temperature enviroments Humans would require special equipment with ease. Infantry Units consist mainly of boots on the ground, while Mechanized Units are equipped with vehicles that increase mobility and durability at the cost of logistics and all-terrain capability, with Tanks allowing a myriad of armored spearheads or operations to proceed, and an Augmetic Legion consists of cybernetically enhanced humans, equipped with high-end implants and prosthetics that set them far above the human baseline, allowing for far more dangerous deployments. Light Units are better for low-logistic scenarios, while Medium Units rely more on regular shipments and strike a good balance between supply consumption and effectiveness. Heavy Units rely on solid logistics to continue working while offering an equal force concentration in return. A War-Pack comprises 15 Karnivores grouped in Packs of 3 Knights each, alongside the infrastructure/logistics to support and rebuild their Knights.
(Gain: Four War-Packs or Six SAGs. These contain [Four Units] chosen from the above choices. Tanks require no Classification.)
[] [Military] Sector Battle Group Construction And Repair

-[] 2x Long Range Anti-Duchy Specialist Fleets (0/1)
A Sector Battle Group consists of 4 Heavy Cruisers, 8 Carriers, 6 Light Cruisers, 8 (Heavy) Frigates, 4 Destroyers/Corvettes, and 3 Guide Ships. A Nomadic Fleet consists out of 1 Battlecolony, 2 Heavy Cruisers, 4 Light Cruisers, 14 Frigates, and 2 Guide Ships. A LRAD consists of 4 Pegasus-Class Command Cruisers, 10 Hydrus-Class Rad Cruisers, 8 Scutum-Class Shield Frigates, 8 Sagitarrius Lance Frigates, 4 Lupus Destroyers, and 4 Guide Ships. Building them in bulk is cheaper than in parcel, and once we have them all filled, we can think about constructing new ones!
(Information: All Action Costs must be paid to receive the ships.
Gain: Filled out SBG/Nomadic Fleets.)
[] [Military] Design New Voidship Classes - [Available: Destroyer (1 DP), Frigate (2 DP), Light Cruiser/Freighter (4 DP), Heavy Cruiser/Freighter (8 DP), Temple Ship (25 DP)] - [20 DP]
From what we can tell, thanks to our history, what information we, the Kil'drabi, Yeeni, and the archives of our planets tell us, the difference between a prosperous interstellar polity and one naught but ash is the strength of their navy. At the moment, we have the beginning of a proud Void Fleet, yet purely defending against our enemies is a great way to get ground down into dust over time; we need to be able to bring the fight to them.
(Information: Ship Classes requiring more DP than you possess take more than one Action to design.

The Celestial Choir has been given the means; with time, they shall conduct their songs. They will listen to the Warp and filter out the false whispers from the slumbering guidance of the Star Child. In halting prayer and stumbling humming, the truth will be stripped until nothing but it remains in the hands of those who shall make it anew into power to be wielded by the Choirs to come. As there are 10 Celestial Choirs free to pursue research, the High Council can ask them to pursue a target instead of what comes close. This will, naturally, be lost once they dip below 10 Choirs.

Implicitly allowed by a Conclave of the Droman Creed, it is time for the priests and Hymnals of the Federation to learn about and put into practice the safe creation of Penitentias, those whose soul and body have been entirely given to the judgment of the Star Child for crimes unforgivable by mortals, yet judgeable by their willingness to repent and be potentially erased by the disgust of the Unborn Divine.
