The Radiant Shepherd - A Warhammer 40K God-Emperor Quest

Has Kryptman been exiled yet? Since I am pretty sure this is before his super genocide plan which we halted with the blessing.

Slipped my mind when I was writing that bit. I realized later, but decided not to change it. Right now he's being hunted because some senior arch magi biologis poked their inquisition buddies into doing them a favor and going after the guy who purged their test worlds. Prior to that maybe some puritans thought he was too radical or maybe some radicals were influenced by a daemon to mess with him.
 
Did some research, and there are several factors that could well synchronize:

Arcadian Leontus, Lord Commander Solar, maintains a retinue of seers, prophets and tarot readers, the Collegiate Astrolex.

So we can expect him to be open to tarot commands.

As Lord Commander Solar, his forces will likely benefit more immediately from the improvements to the Guard Mars is undertaking by dint of proximity.

He is wearied by and does not like the brutality carried out to keep the Imperium afloat, especially in regards to military matters, so IF the Ecclesiarch responds well, initiatives could bolster his mien.

Considering it takes place over years, can a divert action to summon the Legion of the Damned cover multiple campaigns happening over the course of a turn? I'm just, struggling to see its use/cost effectiveness "IRL" if it's six points based on canonical engagements I've found.

Depending on how the turns go and how many years they take, we might just have to let several hotspots turn as bad they will in canon so we can focus on more urgent priorities like the Black Crusade, birth of Ynnead and such.

As is, hopefully we managed to blunt and curtail the Necrons, Tyranids and Orks to some extent. So, next turn we might have some space to focus on getting more action points. We only have 12 years before the Black Crusade and desperately need more action points.
 
@Arcanestomper any info on what's happening with the new Astartes founding and the gene bank the Blood Angels saved?

You can select one thing to get an update on in the vote.

You can have the Legion of the Damned for an entire campaign instead of a single battle, but a Warhammer campaign already takes years.
 
Gonna update my plan to include a status update about the new Astartes Founding then

[x] Scatter Shot v2
[X] Guide the Tarot: Orpheus Sector and especially the Caracol System: Send visions of a deathless host rising from its grave and with their grim scythes glowing of green death, snuffing out the great torch in the sky before reaching for the rest of the heavens. (1 point)
[X] Guide the Tarot: High Marshal Helbrecht: Send visions of wolves made of shadows fallen at the claws of innumerable chitin and flesh that knew no honor. The flood is strong but not as great as it could be and the faithful knight bound in the cross must confront it with his zealous brethren before it can grow in strength. Where one knight falls, two more must rise if not only the tide of flesh is to be overcome but future trials. (1 point)
[X] Guide the Tarot: Logan Grimnar: an old wolf, his fangs the long gold ones of his sire, bares his teeth before a deathless storm that destroys all life. (1 point)
[X] Guide the Tarot: Arcadian Leontus: a warlord riding a horse of metal and flesh rallies his army to fight a marionette of cannon, claw and tusk, tugged by two ephemeral green giants, on the planet named for the end of days. (1 point)
[X] Commune with the Ecclesiarch (4 points)
-[x] The methods of the Ecclesiarchy are wasteful. Worthless priests luxuriate on thrones and offering false prayers while the faithful masses starve and languish. The work of Sebastian Thor must be continued, reform the faith. The priesthood, including you, must cease to be a hindrance and false shepherds, and instead become the mentors and exemplars towards righteousness, devoted service and selflessness.
[X] Bless the Ecclesiarch. (1 point)
[x] Bless the Throne Wrights. (1 point)
[x] Astartes Founding
This is the plan that should be updated.
