In which a Tech Priest has to help a feudal regiment suck less.

That toaster fucking Quarter Wit stole your dissertation.
Your graduation to a fully recognized member of the mechanicus was tainted by another stealing you work and claiming it as their own.

An entire order of the cult is dedicated to the study of logistics and eficency. Your work was the study of some potential cost saving measures in the production of plasma weaponry.
Small on it's own but their is a lot of plasma weaponry in the imperium and small improvements would scale up to massive amounts of resources.

The Quarter wit Toaster fucker stole that data and presented it along side some token other work they did and claimed it all as their own. In fact in your rage you added something to your to do file.

Code:
To do. Txt
>1: Serve the Cult
>2: Improve my mastery of the mechanical arts
>3: Only Refer to the toaster fucker as a toaster fucker
>4: Turn said toaster fucker into a servitor that polishes my feet.

With nothing else to do you had to present some older data, all that you had was something form earlier in your studies focused on the lower technology that many disdained, but the basis of even the most righteous of holy instrument starts with the simple forging of metal. To turn stone to the holy steel going past the weakness it started with to turn it to something more, just like one does with the flesh.

You were forced to program just a few slides and notes ahead of what you were saying as you presented your data and the implications of it. It was far far less impressive and you knew the Fabricator Locums overseeing it would be bored by your studies on the logistics and rapid production of base metals.

They were unhappy and it was clear on their faces they expected something more from you.

You however knew they would be. Your dreams for what offers you would receive to holy orders and positions evaporated the second you saw the toaster fucker present your data. At this point your highest hope was not to be made into a servitor. As if reading your mind one of them speaks up and ends your anxiety.

"Your chosen specailization is highly unusual, however, we have a highly unusual situation we are in need of someone for. We have discussed it and you shall have a posting as an enginseer with the 112th Iron Drakes Regiment. The Data packet is being sent now."

Well, Enginseer isn't bad a few years of battle, and proving your worth you could climb up to becoming respected, it is fine all things considered. You read over the data packet quickly, the posting is quite distant but that is fine, you will have a budget for parts and supplies you will need which is typical the regiment is numerous with a focus on close combat, odd but noted. The home world and regiment type is.

"Is this data packet correct? I'm getting a reading that they are a feudal world. As in fighting with swords and at best crossbows." You ask carefully.

"Yes, they have been locked in a stalemate for some time on a planet of little particular worth, The Imperial Guard has a standing request for an enginseer to be posted their, with hopes that they may be able to help them preform better by providing a technical edge. Ideally even upgrading them to something more useful. Though no one expects that quickly, it is expected however that you will be instrumental in retaking the planet they have been stuck upon."

You bow your head accepting another data packet of details as the request to leave that it is.

With nothing else to do you start shopping for the resources you will request to lead this regiment to greatness.

Is it safe to assume that buying the full version of something means the blueprints come with? Or do we have to buy any and all blueprints separately?

surprised that we don't get plasma pistol blueprint for free since our true research was on plasma weapons and this seams like a side thing we were doing along the way.

It does not come with it for free, however reverse engineering is quite possible once you have the actual thing.

You do, your just being sent to such a place that producing a plasma pistol is a pipe dream at best.


also why not option for the standard tech priest axe

The omnisah axe, isn't actually standard, from what I've been able to find it is actually earned in battle and is a mark of recognition.
Which explains why every hero has it, but tons of art shows tech priests with out one.
 
So we could technically buy a single tech and then also buy it's blueprint?

You could but it would *probably* be a waste of points, it won't take very long to reverse engineer something in front of you, from your own tech base that you are already trained to maintain and know generally how it works.

Outright, my buy plan might not make sense at first guess, but it's based on the idea that we need to have something ready for when we land. The blueprints are things we reach up to by the help of our future comrades and workers Meat shields. It'll be as much work as well as teaching aid, so this army might become more useful through our directions.

We have some leeway, but I really want to be ready when we get planetside.
 
Always like to see more 40k quests.

This plan just so we have some starter production to improve the regiment's current gear without having to teach them something new. They are the ones who should be doing the fighting and are probably already fighting.

[X] Plan: Mostly Unrealized Potential

I guess we can start by reviewing how good the steel that Feudal world currently have, regular iron or damascus steel. Once we know we can get started on making a Furnace capable of making Tool Steel sheet, stamp out that sheet into sword shapes and then let the blacksmiths forge the edge, should cut down on production time significantly as all the blacksmiths had to do is make a blade from the sword/spear/arrow/axe template. Armor will take a bit more work but this should buy us time and resources with the local administration to get build our blueprints.

so what's the plan chat?
Turning the ferals into a forgeworld , Just establishing an Admech bastion?

We are a single Engineseer assigned to a regiment. We are mainly there to improve their equipment so they suck less. Our responsibility will probably be on a regiment level or multi-regiment if things get big enough.
