Question, do worlds we use cyclonic torpedoes on permantly off limits or is it going to take a very long time for them to be livable? Like say in the realm of hundreds of years. Think it was something like that but want to make sure.

Pretty sure the worlds are worthless to us in any reasonable timeframe after that. So probably way more than a few hundred years.
 
Okay, here's muh plan.

[X] Plan Enjou T127

Munitorum
SLOT A - Year 1
-Y1: Djinn Skein Gladiatoria: Military

Void Command
SLOT A - Year 3
-Y3: Shield Capacitors
SLOT B - Year 4
-Y4: Construct: Skeid Military Transport

-Y3: Ask Vlad (Anything he knows about the Alpha Legion)
-Y4: Request Information (Ask Lamia to forge contacts between us and other Avernite peoples)
-Y5: Person of Interest

I'd say we should hold off on asking the border lion guy about getting samples until we've determined a general course of action at the High Council meeting - if we end up using the Eldar favor, we could ask him to help instead of just doing it himself.

Can we get this as spend time with family instead of just on the grandchild that way all three get a boost to their relations with each other?

Once again why? What advantage does Vlad have for knowing anti-Nid tactics that our other Tyranid veteran characters wouldn't know and even if he's the best NId expert the galaxy has seen it probably wouldn't help much since War in the Void probably changed them too much for those tactics to be helpful

Sorry shard but I kind of like knocking out the impalers now rather than never.
@Enjou I would not say no to changing one of the Diplo slots to try and get help with the vault.

*shrug* Other people included it in theirs, and I didn't have anything else to stuff in there.

Given they should be around, that'll still happen. The main benefit here is to give the kid stat boosts by being a doting grandparent.

Maybe make sure because this is more about building a proper relationship between the three of them so the kid gets the bonuses from all three people. It isn't just us that helps to improve them after all and if we get more grandchildren then It still lets us work with all of them instead of on only one.

This is how it worked with Syr and with Xavier & Tamia's kids. We did pretty much the same thing.
 
[X] Plan Shard T127

IIRC Urkozz's Domain was the ork polity that would have likely had everyone around; corrupted, sane, Necron, etc uniting to try and stem the tide. And now we've got them, a Hive Fleet and a potential future Abomination Crusade to deal with and that's without considering what ever the looming 'finale' will be. Yikes.

I'd probably do something like Request information (Relevant topic). The Domain of Mibu maybe? Its a roughly half a sector human polity on the far side of the Nex from us, and hence at least temporarily clear of the utter clusterfuck local space is about to become. We might be able to convince them to provide at least some reinforcements for the upcoming furball. (For the record, there's always been a half-sector human Polity within 500 LY of us, I just gave it a name and some flavor.)

According to Durin more Divinations on the Hive Fleet means a lot more detailed information about size, makeup, and route. Spending 3 on a potentially bad-ending threat seems wise.

I agree, but I think that the other two options are more time critical then doubling down on the Hive fleet right now. After all, if we clear out infiltrators from Dragon's Nest we can accelerate the Tech Transfer, and understanding how the WAAAGH is about to mess everything up could be important.

With Syr it was only us and with the twins they were being improved by us but we don't know what might have been from Xavier and Tamia because we never went back to check them out. But either way it is good I also want to spend more time with Sigmund to help him improve in some of his skills since we were told that Fred can improve the skills of the Queen who have higher stats than Sigmund so it should work for him as well.

I kind of agree, the impalers don't seem useful....we have just now shifted over to a entirely different weapon. so its a specalte-case only for a weapon that just got replaced and thus for special cases already.....what would it be good for anyway?

not that I really know what the possable alternatives are.....

Everyone else uses the Impalers as the standard weapon. This isn't just for us this is for the rest of the Trust and for our militia as well.

I didn't know that. I can switch out to this so we get more info, if people want.

IMO they're more useful for the other worlds in the Trust, that don't have the oodles of AM and EM we do to spend - helping Avernus alone isn't the only way to help the situation.
