1) Would it be worthwhile to make pinprick attacks on KoC to improve the damage that Kobas deals? I am thinking mostly suicide Void Kraken Attacks to soften a bunch of planets ahead of time, negligible cost, minor effect, potentially fatal
1) yes but not your responsibility
the Minsiter of War will conduct the war as he sees fit, you aer voting on wether to set destoying Confusion as an objective
2) Would now be the time to propose sending some reinforcements to Ishiro to resolve the Ork civil war there, or is that too small-scale/below abstraction to bring up since it's just a single planet?
2) below abstraction
3) noticed a peculiarity. The Troll Purestrain ability seems like it either shouldn't work with Adamant Bones at first glance, or they would have it as an inherent effect. I may be just overthinking it
3) nah, adament bones is about the material the bones are made of, while the troll is about replacing the gaps within the ship
4) Where is the Council of Peoples intervening?
4) various sites
Unchained, Death, Silver Skulls and Vect
5) Has KoC been outed as Belakor's bolthole?
5) one of them yes
6) Has it shown any new and hereto unknown capabilities?
6) no
7) It's mentioned Quartus would do better on the Unchained front than against the Realm of Death. Is this also true for the (non-Avernite) Trust, or is it basically equivalent for them?
7) its equivilent for them
well, for Guard or above which is the trusts main expeditary force and has modernised basic power armour as standard
(yes, that is where most of the Trusts AM is going, along with their rail rifles)
8) Can we get a general description of the Realm of Death's primary force composition?
8) Nurgle
main numbers are low grade but tough cultists
killing is done by either astarts or bioweapons
killing them tends to summon deamons
9) Are Chrono-Displacers mundane technology, Sa-tech, or Ka-tech?
9) mundane
10) Does Saurus Relic-ification acceleration power get stronger as they age?
10) yes, slightly
11) Have AOs pants upgraded yet?
11) no
he does not ahve that power
it was added in a later version
12) Is it accurate to put Abryke down as a destroyed Thousand Light, or was it part of a larger polity?
a) Around when was it eaten by Tyranids? I don't recall any details, other than more than three hundred years after the Emperor's death (since that was when Rutbart died)
12) destoyed thousand light
a) around 700 years post emeprors death
13) Are there any Daemon-Worlds left within 200 Ly of Avernus?
13) no
14) If the trust were to be transported back to when the Great Crusade first started, how would they react diplomatically to the Imperium? Would they try to join it, have a treaty like the mechanicum did, or would they be hostile to it?
14) has the council of Poeples gone back too?
if yes try desperatly to convince the Emperor not to commit sucide by picking that fight
if no try and go for treaty as long as they maintain enough inderpendence
with one of the big issues being the trusts aliens citizens, which it would not sacrifice for the Emperor
also its wierd religion that has the Emperor as a fallen form of its god and hopes that he betters himself
9) In that scenario, would the whole "The Imperial Trust is from the future" thing be something that Braindamaged!GreatCrusade!Emperor would be able to grasp? Or would his psychic brain damage make him go: "Does not compute?"
9) he would view it as a wierd what if thrown out by the warp
15) Does Archmagos Arx bring anything to the table in terms of specific skills (like Fozaeth's familiarity with a different technological tradition, or Veles's mass implementation of military tech), or is he inferior there to the other candidates and entirely about AdMech connections?
15) better ties to the AdMech and use of awakened machine spirts
16) Can we write in a proposal to take the last of the nearby daemonworlds?
16) yes
17) Suggestion for something to put in the references post: Ribbit's Project.
17) good idea
1) how well does the Light of truth burn out nurgles clouds of plagus and swarms of small mosnters?
1) its very good at it
1) would the avernite forces be more efficnet helping the unchained or agaisnt the relm of death?
1) could be argued either way
1) How do we already have 80 battlefleets of Runic navy? Based on the shipyards we had at the start of the thread we should only have like 30 battlefleets at most if we had started producing them at the start of thread. And I doubt our shipyards have tripled since then.
1) you started producing it last thread
2) Of course proposing legalizing the worship of other gods would get Nurma (or even Frederick) lynched by the Trust, but what about Avernite humanity specifically?
2) you are unsure
3) How big of an issue would it be for the Unchained to maintain the New Model Navy?
3) they could do it for a few decades, things would start breaking down after that
1) Can our Imperial Era ships make a credible claim to being the last surviving remnant of the Imperium?
1) nah a decent number of deamonships
And various Astartes
And custodies
4) Out of curiosity, since those Daemonships and the Imperium Fleets would both be 'The Last Remnant of the Imperial Navy', would the Imperial Fleets have special advantages against those Daemonships if they ever clashed? (Basically thinking Narrative equalizing the effects of Daemonships)
a) By any chance would many of those Daemonships be held by Ophelia?
4) could be
a) many are
6) Is this guy still alive?
The Long Night Part Two: Sparks at Midnight: A Planetary Governor Quest (43k)
6) unknown
7) Have we been upgrading the ultra-secure vault in Dis with new technology as we obtain it, or is it kind of out of date at this point?
7) yes
8) Are border lions half-daemon or all-mortal?
8) all mortal
10) I don't naval stat-ese, roughly how much stronger is our runic navy when compared to the our New Model Army navy?
10) not quite double
11) Was Malcador essentially panickedly running damage control on Big E's awful plans the whole time, trying to shut down the Great Crusade in a way that wouldn't have his boss vaporize him for insubordination?
11) a lo of the time yes
others he thought were good
he was the overly ruthless one who the Emperor would point out when he was going too far too
and did not do well with the roles reversed
1) Was Malcador just a naturally occuring 1 in a how ever many, given his strength, stability and how early he came in humanity's psychic reawakening?
1) sort of
the stability was actualy not nateral
he just had the luck to awaken as a psyker as a baby
10 meters from the Anatolion
who prevented the explosion, took him under his wing and taught him control
1) Is that arguably luckier, or given how unlikely it would be for a human psyker of that power to be born with stability is that arguably still more unlikely?
1) it is
6) Was the Anatolian being there a coincidence, or did he already know Malcador was a psyker beforehand and was standing there waiting for Malcador to awaken?
6) coincidence as far as you know
2) Is what happened to humanity's psychic development (it kinda vanishing for a pretty long time then coming back weird) attritable to the Shamen, emps, the dragon, all three or is it not entirely weird?
2) all three
3) ...I must know. Have either Muspelheim or Nilfheim reintroduced Lego?
3) Muspelheim has
2) Muspelheim has: Still the bane of feet everywhere?
2) yes
4) A more serious question, was Nilfheim aware of what was up with Muspelheim or were they kept mostly in the dark for operational security?...well not operational, but you know what I mean.
4) they were
they actualy use the AI a lot for their weirdness
5) And to clarify something, cause I can't find it how long was Charles champion of Muspelheim? The impression I got was that he held quite closely to his beliefs and so only took over for a life time on occassion?
5) he was on Muspelheim for around a third of its existance
and was Champion for maybe a third of that
3) How well does the 'We should colonize a bit (~no more than a subsector) so that rolling up the industries dedicated to colonization is more gradual/graceful' argument go for colonization halt? Like
3) not needed
you are still colonsing 4 sectors right now
and will be for the enxt 50 years
1) Wildlife idea: giant psychic parrots, potentially a cavern/abyss thing. Perfect copying of psychic abilities via angry squawking, even things they shouldn't be able too 😛
1) viable
sounds cavern
2) How many Battlefleets does the Trust produce per turn currently?
2) 1.6/year
minus whatever is needed for repairs
actuly I missed something in the spreadsheet
1.2 a year
1) What military actions become inadvisable if we donate the NMN?
1) none in particular
its just what will be done with them will change
your support for allies will become almost entirly ground for example
1) How much % of the Unchained Navy Strength would our gift represent for each of the options?
1) 2%, 5%, 35%
1) Is it a valid option to hand over NMN over time, at the rate of, let's say, half a battlefleet for each Runic battlefleet we build?
1) yes
2) Can we hand over parts of the NMN fleet and keep other parts? I am thinking keeping the screen and donating the rest.
2) you can argue to do so
3) What is the vote currently looking like for the Traditional Gift in terms of support for various options?
3) main support seems to be Dark Age Designs
would need a good argument/role for either of the others
4) Since Rotbart is in this specific vote, do we get some of his bonuses for some of the votes?
4) you dont
5) What TL are the unchained at?
5) really hard tos ay
some bits of them are advanced as you
others are 12
6) If we vote to both finish off the local Chaos polities and donate the NM navy, are we only donating the older ships first until we finish the campaigns, and then handing over the NM ships? Or is this something we have to specify now to prevent our campaigns from suddenly lacking the required navy?
6) yes
14) What did Lt Gen Rebecca Agani die of anyways? The turn where she died (83) just says that with no listed cause
14) I dont remember
7) Could you do a quick reroll to pin the cause down?
7) Spider
8) What TL are we at?
8) 24
9) Is Trust intersted in the Fast Harassers (S11) concept?
9) not really
10) To confirm, can Tachyon be added in physical refit of Twister? Not a new build variant design.
10) yes
11) With NDC becoming good enough to grant +25% Base Weapons trait, what could Tranth do these days? That trait is better than all of his previous work it seems.
11) try and find out
12) If Avernite forces are sent to the Realm of Death instead, do we only have to the initial embassy/coordination set-up with one diplo action, or will we have to go through the whole a-diplo-a-turn flashpoints song and dance again?
12) only the inital
13) Is Ghyran more effective against Nurgle than the other Chaos gods due to the conceptual links to life and healing?
13) no
a big part of his narrative is twsted life
1) Did you intend for the Original 3 Chaos Gods to be based on what the OO did during the WiH?
Nurgle - OO Twisting Life for War (Krork, Eldar, Other species that didn't make it)
Khorne - Duh
Tzeentch - The Time War
1) no
if I was feeling kind I would say that GW did
as I was just following canon as far as I can tell
1) Have we seen any changes to Nurglite doctrine from the new domains by now, or are they still figuring it out?
1) still figuring it out
2) Is it accurate to say that both Ghyran and Shyish are less effective against Nurgle due to his domains and narratives?
2) yes
3) Is using technical discussions from the Ship Design Discussion as part of the arguments OK for this vote?
3) yes
4) Do Realm of Death deployments still come with flashpoint updates?
4) yes
1) Is Aqshy more effective against Nurgle due to the narrative of fire burning away physical taint and sickness, and passion counteracting despair?
1) yes
2) Is the skill of the NDC influenced by the activeness of the naval design containment thread?
2) slightly
3) Has Mort been a major part of the war or is he being more subtle/backlines?
3) more backline

4) no
she has never left Avernus

6) Can Ophelia Jameson be reasonable considered the first stable human α Psyker since Malcador?
6) do you count astartes?

7) it s
8) Is there another wave of colonies beyond the three new sectors this high council that's already in progress?
8) yes
started 50 years ago
5) With that wave being the last until the Sane win or lose, how many sectors would the Imperial Trust have once this last wave has finished their colonization efforts?
5) 13
9) Can Tamia's rituals be used by other polities' psykers, or is it only Avernite/Trust psykers?
9) mostly only yours
1) I was just thinking, but how have our Djinn-Skein Gladiatora changed with Machine Spirit Awakenings? Since, well..
1) general improvment in fuctions
especily at mimicking psykers' powers
2) Who have the Assassins been pointed at these days?
2) Unchained
3) How long do we have before the vote closes?
3) a day or so
4) Would there be worth in using the new naval Adamant in a similar way as Ultra Dense Lattice? An even stronger material that frees up more volume in ships. Presumably not compatible with Adamant Bones
4) probebly possible
you dont have the designs
7) Can we use Runes of Fire on Graviton torpedoes?
7) yes
8) can we sacrifice the emperor to make Rotbart the god of humanity, so humanity can have someone more competent?
8)Rotbart would be a horrible god
utterly horrible
9) Behind the scenes, have you already determined what the various members of the Sane's anti-Dragon superweapon research division are working on? Or are you going to retroactively decided based on their research rolls whenever one of the projects reach completion?
9)not saying
10) PA: Gunship and Warships do not appear to incorporate Truemat Keystones
10) yes they dont
it will take some time before those are compelted

2) there were bits that did
1) hows holden doing settling in with the unchained?
1) a few issues but not to many
1) are slan born with the same paragon trait or does each one get a unique one?
1) each gets one related to their spacility
2) Do Slann with the same specialty get the same paragon, or just different but very similar ones?
2) the same
2) Is Mikaelsson still governor of Vanaheim, or has he been replaced by now?
2) he has been repaced
mutliple times
