It's in the Abyssal Eye System in the Irridanus Subsector. Notably, it's the planet New Dawn R&D found that's orbiting a black hole
Nope, the last threadmark was 766.M42, we're still in the 760 decade turn.
Also, I've been looking at ship design and I think the Libra-Q is missing 12 fighters here. 12+12+48+24 = 96
I was thinking going 4x bomber hangers might be more effective considering we will vastly outnumber enemy strikecraft anyway but that might just be flavour text and doesn't change anything behind the scenes.

Oh I didn't see that. so 6 years.... yah not even 1 billion yet. We're fine.
Hmm. Interesting. Worlds in general do seem to give us more stuff in terms of research discounts, SAGs, fleet-building capacity than orbitals would. But the 'oodles of stuff you can exploit' is hard to parse. Looking over the list again -
[] Howling Gale - (Target Biosphere: Black-Sky Myconoid) - (Maximum Population: 50 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~120 Years)
[] Amut - (Target Biosphere: Volcanic Basalt Lichen) - (Maximum Population: 10 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~80 Years)
[] Litra - (Target Biosphere: Ice Bog) - (Maximum Population: 15 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~160 Years)
[] Trif - (Target Biosphere: Lilypad Ocean) - (Maximum Population: 20 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~250 Years)
[] Ivuh - (Target Biosphere: Planetary Mangroves) - (Maximum Population: 18 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~180 Years)
[] Scil - (Target Biosphere: Petrified Woods and New Growth Forests) - (Maximum Population: 35 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~230 Years)
[] Yeogawa - (Target Biosphere: Flowering Abdundance) - (Maximum Population: 46 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~220 Years)
[] Maphara - (Target Biosphere: Tepui and Cenote) - (Maximum Population: 101 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~200 Years)
[] Nurn - (Target Biosphere: Fog Mountains) - (Maximum Population: 27 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~170 Years)
[] Git - (Target Biosphere: Megaflora) - (Maximum Population: 36 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~160 Years)
[] Ixcat - (Target Biosphere: Wet Tidally Locked) - (Maximum Population: 16 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~160 Years)
[] X-14/RHO - (Target Biosphere: Dry Caves) - (Maximum Population: 9 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~190 Years)
[] Bob - (Target Biosphere: Badlands) - (Maximum Population: 11 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~110 Years)
[] Nushar - (Target Biosphere: Dry Forests and Steppes) - (Maximum Population: 22 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~150 Years)
[] Llolanov - (Target Biosphere: Temperate Forests and Mild Arctic) - (Maximum Population: 9 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~140 Years)
It's hard to predict which ones might have exotic resources or whatnot, though it seems like 'Flowering Abundance' might do something like increase food infrastructure a point, maybe something similar with Megaflora. But hard to guess. Maybe we could do a write-in eventually to scan them for anomalies/exotic resources. But if those were that common, it seems like we would have found more on our 9 newest colonies. Instead of just you know, the false Hydras.

1. You can certainly try an evacuation in a planetary warzone!
2. That is for you to decide.
3. Voxx Primus can sustain more than 1 person after the fighting is done with. Anything more concrete and you run into "If" scenarios.
4. You can certainly try! That is for you to decide.
5. Less than 5 Billion each. You would also immediately starve of you converted them away from food production if you got Voxx Primus.
6. A Civilized World. And that potential is low with a side of "Excess goes into the Servitor Factory."
7. That is for you to guess.
1,2,3,4,7 - Well I guess we'll figure it out when we get there.
5 - I meant can we emigrate people to them while we maintain full food production? If the Agriworlds could take 10 billion altogether while also supplying Voxx Prime food that'd be not too shabby at all.
6 - Right, we're not going to wipe out or immediately convert the locals, makes sense. I'm sure they'll integrate fast when they find out our version of a Civilized World.

I did answer that? They can take 5 Billion per planet, but need to stay focused on producing food to feed the 100s of Billions that need that food on Voxx Primus.
[X] Howling Gale - (Target Biosphere: Black-Sky Myconoid) - (Maximum Population: 50 Billion) - (Terraformation Time: ~120 Years)
Ah I thought it was if they take 5 billion or more per planet we would lose food production, thanks.
@HeroCooky, what did we paid the Irrita for terraforming, material, technology or money?

Our entire polity seems to have grown more than that, since "over 13" was the numbers used when compared to the 700 Billion, and not, "Over 28x."
I wouldn't be surprised if we were up to near 40, 45 billion or something.

I am worried about speed of our revolution's growth.
How quickly do we spread? How many do we have already?
Let's see what did Cooky say and when about our revolution's population:
7 million =1 turn=> 19 million =3 turns=> 42 million =2 turns=> 110 million =?0 turns?=> 150 million =2 turns=> 500 million =4 turns=> ???
We are already in danger zone. We were in danger zone for 4 turns.
Oh Star Child, oh fuck. We may be in danger. One more crackdown action from Duchy may be enough for them to find out.
I dearly suggest spending an action soon, on some kind of stealth melody, stealth song, infiltration of their law enforcement or something to keep our people hidden for longer. We are not ready for actual fight over Voxx right now. Also, every million we get on our side is another million willing to fight for us.
Also, to keep track:
@HeroCooky what is our Voxx population right now?
>400 million is danger zone, where keeping our revolution secret becomes a problem.
How quickly do we spread? How many do we have already?
Let's see what did Cooky say and when about our revolution's population:
After 640.M42 - Anger And Wrath
After 650.M42 - Soils of Terra
After 680.M42 - Eating The Bananas
After 700.M42 - Cabal of Rogue Psykers
Middle of 700.M42 - 700 BILLION PEOPLE
After 720.M42 - I'm Too Busy
7 million =1 turn=> 19 million =3 turns=> 42 million =2 turns=> 110 million =?0 turns?=> 150 million =2 turns=> 500 million =4 turns=> ???

I'd actually be willing to do a Stealth Song, honestly? Not next turn, we're kinda invested, but do we have the Melodies needed for a Stealth song?

Yeah, hopefully that can wait a turn *inb4 next update is a POV of Duchy smelling something fishy in underhives*.
Also to add to the write-in for our Propaganda Office to really focus on keeping our profile low. Trade off speed of growth for secrecy.
- Infiltrating the local PDF and Arbites, focus on rumor gathering and removing people too close to the truth.
- Infiltrating lower noble households, focus on rumor gathering, adding misleading rumors.
- Keeping most of our more vocal efforts away from the upper hives, focusing mostly on underhive.
- In general an order to keep focusing on internal buildup rather than proselytizing.

Here's the text for the updates Propaganda Office action - or as I like to call it, the Subversion Bureau. We should probably actually write it in this turn.
[] [General] Propaganda For The Foreign Masses (0/3)
With the Glimmering Federation's lessons in subverting Voxx, some have proposed creating a dedicated office that would be responsible with to continue the mission of converting foreign peoples forever more. This Subversion Bureau would be outfitted with ships, Choirs, materials, factories, and a mandate to subvert, convert, and then integrate new systems without causing mass casualties or widespread destruction. They would incorporate the wealth of experience gained from the Voxx covert campaign thus far into their organizational structure, and their first mission would be to complete the infiltration of the Hive world and it's defensive forces, shifting the focus from mass conversion to infiltration of the Hive's policing & defense forces, as well as the nobility, all to set the stage for a revolution across all levels of society when the time is ripe. This will be a pricy Initiative, but it will set the stage for the Federation's future growth.
(Gain: Allows you to slowly convert one [1] random system at a time to the Glimmering Federation without Action cost.)
It's got a shift in focus from 'Convert as many people as possible' to 'convert people from every level of society.' I'll also note that 700 million is 0.1% of the hive, so not exactly a majority.
