While I still think that it would be best to go for a Light Cruiser that is meant to follow up on the Crux since we could produce 4 for the effort to make a Heavy Cruiser and that I think a Scorpio with Torpedoes an a Heavy Broadside would be a lot better than Alectai gives it credit for, I'll approval vote since I do think that Other Psykana isn't the most relevant atm since Neon hasn't really shown that they use Psykers and the nearest people who likely do is Chaos.

Protection II is both a path towards greater songs, and is probably also just generally a useful thing for us to have a Choir knowing during a war where there's plenty of reasons to look for Protection.

I can get on board with that. I don't feel like I understand what songs do, but whenever we do psyker stuff it's pretty darn powerful. The capability is worth building up just as much as our navy.

You just went through those systems blowing up the military up to Kriegar, where your forces are repairing and waiting for the Neon Counter-attack.

Question for when you are awake again:
Old fighters were only 70% as effective as imperial Designs.
How are our new fighters?

About equal to Imperial ones. Different designs do make for different capabilities. :p

Does Harsh Crew Training convey the same benefits as Strict Pilot Training--just to the entire crew instead of the strike craft pilots? If so, would it be a better use of that point to put it in Gene Lines instead? Or are Assault Boats a bit different than Fighters/Bombers?

Harsh Crew Training is basically a way to improve the skill level of a ship by 1. Makes it better at doing what it does; being a ship. And while Pilots are technically crew, they are part of the hangars as weapons and are thus not counted.

Assault Boats use the crew stats to do their thing once delivered, but use Pilot stats to get there in the first place.

There is an explanation of what Songs do at the end of the Psykana Media Threadmark.

Edit: Also; ALL ONE TO TEN REACTIONS ON MAPS, LET'S GOOOOOOOO!

Edit2 Boogaloo; Overlooked those.

That aside, could we get a writeup for the ships that defected? A reserve hanging out in Brotar would be really swell right around now.

You need to order them around with an Action, else they are basically emptied hulls in Diablo waiting for peacetime to get sorted out.

Can we have a non destructive version that costs 2 or 3 AP?

No, you've already learned all you could from Imperial Ships by looking at them. Now you need to take them apart to figure out how their intact guts work.

Wait 11 ship , that means we got 11 navigators or at least that cloned nav tech they had right?

Is that reverse engineering research action? Or do we have like 11 true navigators?

The Astropath Clones, Navigators are a whole different breed of Psyker, are dead. They were killed by their on-board minders when they realized the ships would be surrendering to the Glimmering Federation.

Oof

I guess being cut off means the Navigator Houses can't wave their "Absolute Immunity to consequences, my contract is to the ship and not the employer, and so on so forth" that lets even pirates get access to them as long as they can capture a ship that had one attached, huh?

Since generally, the implication is that in exchange for not getting involved, the Navigator does their job for whoever owns the ship, no questions asked, at least until the money runs out and Navis Nobiite ships start appearing out of the ether to repossess them and any extra collateral that may have been involved for you being in breach of contract.
