To everyone who reads the quest, I have an announcement.
I have contracted some type of bacteria and my throat is hurting a lot thanks to it, which means that I can not write like this as the pain messes with my concentration. So, until I get rid of this, I will leave this quest in temporary hiatus.

Military
Ground Defense Initiative: There could be a time when alien empires would gladly seize our worlds for themselves. We must be prepared for them, should the worst come to pass. These are tactics and strategies that will be constantly updated as time passes and new technology is discovered and implemented, on how to handle an alien invasion in a world controlled by the Empire. DC 30 (1d100=24)
Cost: 100 Energy; 50 Minerals
Upkeep: None
Time: 1 Turn
Some issues have come up, as certain plans now seem more unfeasible than before and have to be scrapped for a variety of reasons. While, said plans are flexible thanks to the idea of new technologies introduced to the military which would bring new tactics and strategies to wars. Many of the developed plans are simply unfeasible as they have thinking that goes against the current doctrine and if simulations are right would incur more losses on the Empire's own soldiers than the enemy owns.
Industrial & Public Matters
Adaptive Bureaucracy: Further refinements of our bureaucratic means can help further advance the Empire, as resources can move more rapidly with less red tape to impede them. DC 45 (1d100=94)
Cost: 50 Energy
Upkeep: 3 Energy
Time: 2 Turns
Now that all parts of the previous corrupt administration have been purged from our bureaucracy, the fine turning of said bureaucracy have begun to have consistently easier in doing so. With no other issues arising as the Ministry continues its assigned duty.
Hydroponic Farms: Massive domed farms that will help fix the current deficit of our income in yearly food production, while less wide than our agricultural districts, they can certainly help. DC 10 (1d100=92)
Cost: 38 Minerals; 10 Energy
Upkeep: 2 Energy; 2 Minerals
Time: Completed
The construction of the hydroponic farms have been completed with no issues arising, the domes have been erected, and the material and nutrient rich water have showed no harm to the crops, and are helping them grow. All in all, a success, and the first crops and fruits have already been collected and distributed across the Empire. This has also the benefit of eliminating our deficit among our food production, allowing our stockpiles to rise again.
Rewards: +18,2 Food
Science
Engineering
Powered Exoskeletons: Wearing a powered exoskeleton suit augments the user's strength and speed. The military applications are obvious, but it will also increase labor efficiency. DC 30 (1d100+7=39)
Time: Completed
Fortunately, this time around, our scholars successfully managed to create proper powered exoskeleton frames that do all that it was promised to do. They come in two forms, the civilian one, where it shall be used to help our workers and so increase production efficiency. The military one, where the increase of strength and speed is more pronounced as our scholars worked hard to make it military grade. Of course, the two would need to be first integrated in both the civilian and military sector before seeing any improvements.
Rewards: Can now integrate Powered Exoskeletons
Physics
Administrative AI: An advanced administrative artificial intelligence, meant to help our scholars in their pursuit of new technology. DC 30 (1d100+7=56)
Time: 1 Turn
Our scholars once again begin the coding process in creating the new AI, this time they are much more attentive to any error that can rise and ruin the project again.
Society
New Worlds Protocol: While we already have an idea of what we will need for proper colonization, calculating required resources and gear required to establish a planetary colony allows us to herd brave pioneers into grand "ark ships". We are confident that they will survive the long voyage across the stars to a new home. DC 20 (1d100+7=48)
Time: Completed
Much of the work done by our scholars was theoretical, as the construction of a ship meant to colonize another world has never been done before. However, our scholars have succeeded in the project goal and have successfully created the plans for the construction of an Ark Ship, meant to take a selective amount of our people to another world. They have calculated and drew plans on everything, from resources needed to build the ship, on what colonists need to do when landed upon a new world.
Rewards: Can build Colonization Ships.
Space
Exploration
Ludilles: The planet that is located 'behind' our own, a barren world incapable of sustaining life. The Aenqid believed it was because one of their gods had burned away the rich life of their world. What really happened was a system event that saw the planet being incapable of sustaining life, there might be something useful in there. (1d100=100!)
Time: Completed
It seems that previous failures were only meant to discourage us, for our Science Ship has uncovered a great bounty in Ludilles. Not only is there an abundant mineral vein present in the barren world, but also what seems to be some sort of ruin, that had been hidden from our scanners thanks to a recent dust storm. This raises the answer on whether we were alone in the universe.
Rewards: Abundant Mineral Veins and Ancient Ruins on Ludilles.

The Emperor is might pleased by recent events. Not only was the bungle of failures finally stopping, with the only one recently being an error expected thanks to the nature of theoretical battles, but all projects are finally advancing without any issues. The most noteworthy being how the scholars of his Empire were now finally doing what he was paying them to do, advance his nation.
Of course, there were some… issues.
Ludilles has proven both a blessing and a curse, it has given his Empire a truly enormous vein of minerals that they can exploit and will undoubtedly be their first offworld mining operation. But it has also given the headache that is the alien ruins present in the world. Thanks to the alien ruins, his people now know that they are definitely not alone in the cosmos, even if the owners of the ruins are likely long dead by now.
This caused some discussion among the social and work life across the entirety of the Noctern Empire. Most of these talks are about how their blood tastes like to if they would be able to hold their younglings, perfectly acceptable, thankfully enough. After all, it would be such a hassle to handle traitors when his future galactic empire was in its infancy.

Ground Defense Initiative: There could be a time when alien empires would gladly seize our worlds for themselves. We must be prepared for them, should the worst come to pass. These are tactics and strategies that will be constantly updated as time passes and new technology is discovered and implemented, on how to handle an alien invasion in a world controlled by the Empire. DC 30 (1d100=32)
Cost: 100 Energy; 50 Minerals
Upkeep: None
Time: Completed
It seemed that in the end, the issues that plagued the planning of the GDI project were a non issue. The Warmaster alongside the top generals of the Imperial Armed forces have all come together and created a series of stratagems that should be followed in case of an alien invasion, as these tactics and strategies will give imperial forces an edge against their extraterrestrial enemy.
A point to note to the GDI project was how flexible the new doctrine in the case of planetary invasion was. Mainly in how it could be easily changed as the advancement of weapons technology continued, which allowed new ways to fight against anyone or anything that dared to threaten the Empire.

The Emperor drank his blood wine, made from the rarest type of blood available, with something true happiness in his mind. Finally, after a stream of bad luck, his vision of a space empire was taking hold. Ludilles is providing so much mineral wealth that they will only start feeling a type of strain when the offworld and terrestrial operations reach a new zenith.
By that point, the empire's industry should have already surpassed the one in the past, thanks to new mining operation in other worlds.
There was also the fact that with the new medicines being distributed among the populace the birth rate has improved, which with his people having low fertility rates, was a genuine stroke of luck. Through with what his scholars discovered, it came with its headaches as well.

The Emperor drank his blood wine, made from the rarest type of blood available, with something true happiness in his mind. Finally, after a stream of bad luck, his vision of a space empire was taking hold. Ludilles is providing so much mineral wealth that they will only start feeling a type of strain when the offworld and terrestrial operations reach a new zenith.
By that point, the empire's industry should have already surpassed the one in the past, thanks to new mining operation in other worlds.
There was also the fact that with the new medicines being distributed among the populace the birth rate has improved, which with his people having low fertility rates, was a genuine stroke of luck. Through with what his scholars discovered, it came with its headaches as well.
At least things were finally becoming better, and he didn't have to worry about hidden saboteurs among his loyal servants.
