I'd advise you to have one of them Deny the Witch on the enemy summoning attempt. Assuming what powers they have isn't a good idea in general, but all psykers can Deny the Witch so we can safely assume that they can do it too.

they got subsumed into your general choirs, all of which are now capable of songweaving@Durin, because they're very important, can you tell us about the 5 songweaving choirs we apparently have and the songs available to them?
Considering the effects of songweaving on psychic frequencies, does this give a bonus to Grand Choir stability?they got subsumed into your general choirs, all of which are now capable of songweaving
yes it doesConsidering the effects of songweaving on psychic frequencies, does this give a bonus to Grand Choir stability?
Level 7 large hive gives +275.Has the effects of fortifications changed under the new Military system?
I distinctively remember that Durin has included the effects of Fortifications somewhere. What does Level 7 Fortification provide Dis?
IIRC there was also a multiplier to casualties taken.
If you look in the Military spreadsheet the units have "Skill multipliers" (some of our units have ludicruos multiplyers (one Elite Psyker Regiment we have is terrifying), though even our PDF is about eleven times more effective than Abominite infantry), this way Durin only needs to roll once for each army.There isn't one explicitly listed on the sheet (it's in the Imperial Trust Systems post, by the by), bit IIRC there are some multipliers in the background, and differences between opposing rolls also affects casualty rates.
I do notice that Durin doesn't seem to be using the Skill stat in the rolls he's posting, so he may have moved that entirely to the background as well. I'm guessing it's because there are different forces with different skill levels involved on all sides.

I assume each +100 skill double the multiplier (so +100 skill would have multiplier of *2, +200 would have *4, +300 would have *8, +400 would be *16, etc.). Considering our PDF who have skill just shy of +400 (after applying variuos bonusus) have multiplier of 15.28 support this.Ah, that's not linked on the front page, so I had to search in the threadmarks to find it - there's the old Military sheet there, but it uses a different system. The way the numbers on the new sheet gets determined is a bit of a mystery though.

Hey @Durin, few question about a potential action.
- Could the Troll Geomancers under our command feasibly make tunnels into the 'elite' camp being constructed in a reasonable timeframe? If not, ignore all other questions
- Which of the following tunnels would be feasible: (1) a sapping tunnel in which explosives could be placed to collapse the fortifications above it (or shield generator or similar, (2) an infiltration tunnel or tunnels with small, disguised exits to increase the likelihood of saboteurs and the like to successfully infiltrate and exfiltrate, (3) an assault tunnel which would allow a significant number of troops to bypass the exterior defenses once its exit is created?
- For any of the feasible tunnel types, how significant of an advantage would they be for their purpose?
- How long would each of the feasible types take to construct? Could we increase that time to reduce the odds of them being discovered or increase the benefits they give?
- Approximately how likely would each of the feasible types be to be discovered during construction?
- How about after the construction is finished?

Due to a combo of laziness and not knowing where to start, any examples?Just to note, this is a movie about Tamil/Indian mythology. While I'm pretty sure crazy shield-barrel-palmtree-catapult were never mentioned in the stories, it's still a relatively tame stunt compared to some of the other things those guys got up to in their legends.

I must be jaded, but one of the first questions I had was "why did he not stab him through the heart instead of cutting off his head?"Well for starters, their go-to set of legendary weapons are called the Astras, and includes the Brahmastra, which supposedly obliterated anything it hit, charred the land it fell on, brought ruin to all life and rendered men and women infertile. The story of Arjuna and Karna in the Bhagavad Gita is an excellent example of the kinds of weapons and nonsense the Hindus got up to. For example! Quoth the wiki:
'However, Krishna created an artificial eclipse by using his Sudarshana Chakra to hide the sun, forcing Kauravas to believe it was sunset and Arjuna's death was imminent. (In some versions, it is said that Lord Krishna used his yogic power to hide the sun). Overjoyed, they started celebrating, and using that opportunity, Arjuna caught them unprepared, then Arjuna beheaded unprepared Jayadratha and made his arrows to carry away Jayadratha's head. This was because Jayadratha had a boon from his father that whoever would be responsible for his head falling to the ground would have his own head blown up. That is why Arjuna carried the severed head of Jayadratha to his father, who was awoken from his meditation by the sudden landing of a severed head on his body and since he ended up dropping it to the ground, he had his head blown up.'
Because only in Hindu Mythology (and maybe Celtic stuff) will you find an ancient death-curse/blessing/divine killswitch that involves making people's heads explode being turned against the guy who instituted it to begin with.
The Ramayana is a good place to start too.
I must be jaded, but one of the first questions I had was "why did he not stab him through the heart instead of cutting off his head?"
I mean he obviously knew about the death curse and if he knew it was connected to the head then why did he go for the head?
Could Jaydratha only be killed by beheading.
Sorry its very interesting, but I just get hung up on weird stuff![]()
I'd have propped him up and left him...maybe taking back something to show off.I believe the problem was that 'his head falling to the ground' wasn't necessary predicated by 'first his head had to be chopped off.' That is, stabbing him and letting his body fall to the ground would have the same effect. So Arjuna had to get creative.
d100=100... really. Canon and a transcendent. bloody dice gods
1. I only want to let @Durin note that the omake lacks the canon tag. Except if I have missed something?
Cyboyts?3. Would you give us (next or if any turn) the option for Thrant to upgrade Cybots?
