A Shrouded Dawn (Warhammer/Stellaris)

So there is more of them Did they survive
No. Olynn is the only one to weather the eons so well. Mostly due to it being built far enough from any major channels in the war to avoid being hit during the construction phase more than a couple of times.

Second, its location was also happily far from any warp storms and such, so it didnt get fucked over too much during the Age of Strife and the general horribleness of that. It didnt even get found by the Imperium until M33, mostly by accident when an Astartes chapter was hunting for someone of little note and more or less crash-landed on the station.
 
wait a minute we are makeing power armour and im guessing for the Astartes chapter that found our home first. does that mean the 100 power armour is for a chapter that is 7 founding or better ie 6,5 so on if so it explain why we are treated better off than most planets

the armor that Olynn is making is actually serving as the Imperial Tithe for Olynn. No one really knows what to make of it, so they basically just shrugged and waved the drawing of men in exchange for 100 Tier 8 Dark Age Military Spec Power Armor Suits per decade.

The armor for the record OOC makes whoever wears it roughly equal to a Veteran Astartes or a newbie Custodian in terms of durability and physical prowess. They lack the warp buffs that those two get so they aren't as impressive, but they can keep up with the physical side of things and just tank direct nuke strikes and such.

lol so more inquisition level gear plus deathwatch. but yea still a good tithe 100 them deployed anywhere would shift some battles
 
Well, this was an absolutely awesome update even if it was' just' research. This has been a very enjoyable ride so far.
A literal black hole as a power source? That we could potentially control, now that is just amazing!
 
Turn 3: March of 40,000
The last month was boring but productive use of your time, as you completed learning how the principles of fusion functioned and could begin to move forward with regards to other more advanced forms of energy generation.

This was the first time that you felt safe enough in your own abilities and the surety of your body to begin working on the generators for the Annihilation Reactors. Before this month, you were prone to jitters of the body that could spell the doom of all on the station if your body failed you at the wrong moment, but now your arms are as steady as possible and your flesh is hardened against the wear and tear of life itself.

No longer do you feel the drag of sleep every hundred hours, now only once a week do you find the need to rest your mind for a handful of moments to become fully refreshed and ready to return to work. Thus, the new month came and you began to plan forth the next thirty days of your life and knew that if the progress of the last month continued, by the time the year passed Olynn would be well on the path to restoration.

With the healing of the depths and the purging of filth, the people you saw were more cheerful, although you did wonder why so many glared with barely hidden disgust and rage at young Syra. Most of the time when she was busy cleaning her feathers or scales, or just watching the light dance over the iridescent blue scales that covered her hands and forearms, those where when you saw the most disgust leveled at her. Which confused you, for why would your people be disgusted by a child being curious about the world around them?

Regardless of the general lack of sanity among the people that see your newly gather crowd of children that your father seems to have taken as his own, you are ready to continue your work in His name to rebuild the failing temple of His Imperium and make it shine anew. Olynn would be the first of the worlds of Man to shine once more across the stars.

As you stare upward in the atrium, letting your metallic hair glittering with the shine of gold dance in the shifting gravity waves, you could just barely make out the pin points of light that showed the stars of the galaxy that was your home and the true seat of your Duty. You might be far from the center, but in time you would make the journey forth and bring a new dawn to all of the Imperium.

But, shaking your head you turn once more to the countless sheets of metal engraved with ideas and thoughts on them floating around you even as you floated in defiance of gravity. What to do for this month of march?




Month Long Turn (you have a total of 9 actions to spend on any set of options, one action is Locked)

Stellaris Research - Can choose up to 3 things, Locks them until completed (research)
Note that any research that would use exotic materials in its construction will require the methods of their creation as a prerequisite
Fusion - Stellaris Physics (Tier 1), equivalent to Tier 3 Imperial Plasma Reactors

-[] Blue Lasers (T1)
-[] Cold Fusion Power (T2)
-[] Anti Matter Generators (T3)
-[] Improved Reactors (T1)
-[] Hyperspace Discovery (T5)
-[] Field Modulation (T1)
-[] Global Energy Management (T1)
-[] Deflectors (T0 250 cost)
-[] Active Countermeasures (T0)
-[] Scientific Method (T5)
-[] Gravtic Sensors (T2)
-[] Volatile Material Plants (T2)
-[] Bio-reactor (T2)
-[] Hydroponics (example exists on Olynn, T0)
-[] Gene Crops (example exists on Olynn, T2)
-[] Genetic Mapping (example exists on Olynn T0)
-[] Gene Tailoring (example exists on Olynn T3)
-[] Psionic Theory (Anatol exists, T4)
-[] Preliminary Astral Dimension Theory (T8, Shroud/Warp Interactions)
-[] Industrial Base (T5)
-[] Unanchored Construction (T3)
-[] Weather Control Systems (T2)
-[] Nanocomposite materials (T0)
-[] Flak Battery (T0)
-[] Afterburners (T1)
-[] Ion Thrusters (T2)
-[X] Heat Conversion System (T7) (Locked by Anatol due to Criticality, 1334/32000, Locked until 1334/8000, Vote weight for extra Action set to 2)
-[] Kinetic Conversion System (T7)

Station Examination (research/other)
-[] Construct Complete Map of Olynn (DC 2500, ASDC no longer gives bonuses)
-[] Determine estimated costs to repair selected systems (2 systems per action) (Auto success due to ASDC)
--[] write in systems to evaluate. DC of 1000 for Hidden Systems no ASDC bonus
-[] try to break down systems into sub components (DC 750, reveals secondary research options)

People Interaction (interaction)
-[] Orsion (your father and the best engineer on the station)
-[] Eliza (His Pontifex upon Olynn station)
-[] Lysa (your mother and the best researcher on Olynn bar yourself)
-[] Astein (the chief apothecary)
-[] Syra (young psion, former psyker)
-[] Just wander around the station (might find someone new of interest or nothing of note)

Shroud exploration (psionic)
-[] see if your shroud realm is useful for anything in the material realm (DC 100/250/500/1000)
-[] try to figure out where the souls of others live (DC ????)
-[] try to understand the nature of the shroud (DC ????? Anatol expects this to be undoable)
-[] One time action - Spend another action to attach this action to that action. This will immediately grant a sub vote for a Perk or Trait that is congruent to the action tied to this action. This, will however limit your flexibility from this point on out, Perks or Traits within the domain of the action taken will come easier and more often, but outside will be lesser and harder to find. It will NOT limit your abilities, but it will give a Flavor to them.

Time until Fabrication System produces armors: 2 Months

Does anyone else have another plan?
I probably will by tomorrow, this is one of the more interesting ideas I've seen regarding pyschers and it has my attention. It is just that my brain has been feeling a little fried beyond planning for multiple games today.
EDIT: Learned i have less than 24 hours, so this should do it. Forgot that these intervals could be so short.

Oh wait I might not have that long for some reason, alright I will try too now then.

[x]Plan: Sweet Dreams are made of These.
-[x] Investigate system: Hydroponics
This seems important to understanding as soon as we can now that work has already been done on the most dire threats.
-[x] Eliza (His Pontifex upon Olynn station)
We need insight into the second most dire threat on the station, it's leadership.
-[x] see if your shroud realm is useful for anything in the material realm (DC 100/250/500/1000)
This one has so much potential that it seems nigh impossible to ignore.
 
ok l have 3 plans below l have voted myself for 'having a chat' but feel free to vote for what you want

[X] have a chat
-[X] Heat Conversion System (T7) 3AP
-[x] Hydroponics (example exists on Olynn, T0) 2AP
-[x] Determine estimated costs to repair selected systems 1AP
--[x] Cold Fusion back up reactor
--[x] Heat Conversion System
-[x] Orsion (your father and the best engineer on the station) 1AP
-[x] Eliza (His Pontifex upon Olynn station) 1AP
-[x] Syra (young psion, former psyker) 1AP

this plan is set up so you can continue to learn about heat conversion systems. second Hydroponics is a low hanging fruit easy to grab and at end the day it will boost some moral around the station having more food. cost to repair well 1 we are able to fix when we find the cost and 2 better finding that out asap before trade ship come over. next 3 actions to gather support and wisdom and also make friends, we may not have stress but we also not a machine.


[] finding the cost
-[] Heat Conversion System (T7) 3AP
-[] Determine estimated costs to repair selected systems 3AP
--[] Cold Fusion back up reactor
--[] Heat Conversion System

Rolls have been done and frankly, hydroponics was something that Anatol did quite literally in about five minutes of effort.

Heat Conversion System Progress: 1225+1334 = 2559/32000 (2559/8000)
Hydroponics: 809/250 - Major Overflow, Subcomponents identified.
Technologies Unlocked
Exotic Gene Crops: Tier 8
Self Regulating Crops: Tier 5
Vertical Farming: Tier 1 (Completed)
Complex Ecosystem Creation: Tier 3 (Repair level understanding)
Meat Plants: Tier 5
Meetings: No roll for them due to narrative driven events

intresting...vertical farming sounds promising, along with complex ecosytems...such things will help the station allot with population problems, and meat plants will give the protein needed for the stations upkeep.

exotic gene crops would be good for tithes and such...problem is our "Mother" is a bitch.
 
vertical farming would be really helpful
