To be clear: That biomancer group already has the potential to add between 5 and 10% casualty reduction. So with a boost to it it could reach like 12-15%?
But but even I'd it's only a 2% I'd go for it, because that Biomancy group gets to be spread around to other Legions.
Aahh, my bad, my bad.
It's mostly just people's thoughts on what it means to be an Astartes. Abdul, for instance, agrees that they're weapons, slaves with no real free will. He thinks it's more of a social binding than a genetic one, but a part of that is probably that he can change his genetics at will.
Rene, Abdul, and Auro all seem to agree that Astartes are both much greater, and less than normal men. With both Rene and Abdul greatly missing their ability to have or raise families, and Abdul specifically his ability to pass down his genetics at all.
Rene also fights for that golden future, where Astartes aren't needed, and when the time will come, though he hasn't quite got this far yet, would be more than willing to Boe his head so the Emperor's soldiers can cut it off.
Abdul, meanwhile, has the focus on legacy you briefly, briefly, touched upon. But whereas Auro is fine with letting his just be his research, but Abdul and Beltran cling to their legacies, one without realizing.
It was an interesting bit, and as I write/plan an Omake highly steeped I character's and group's philosophies I cannot help but notice.
Ohh, and also both Abdul and Auro think of their weapon as just...themselves? But in Auro's case a lot of it is because it's quite literally.
Which is a long-winded way of saying...death of the author ready got to you, because I pulled a bunch of unintended meanings out of nowhere in your work because I found it fun.
Yeah, but we'd be losing the STCs, or at least part of their production, if we allowed that. But fair enough.
