This is rather awkward but i cant seem to find the information for the wyvern anywhere(the fighter jet apparently?), im rather new and ive been binging the thread so i missed where it was discussed im around pg 12000 or so, could someone put a link to where the information is?
Sorry for the inconvenience i would really appreciate the help.

Check out the Armory link in my signature. The Wyverns are detailed at the bottom of the post in the Imperial Navy section.
 
Thanks I really appreciate it!
That looks way better than the image I had in my head, for some reason I thought they looked like paper airplanes.
 
Before the end of next month we need to stock up on some more Mercury from a lake, bee tee dubs. On the order of 50,000 tons, probably? That's us good for the next RL year, considering the barest bones of plans for our air force and fleet thus far. It will probably take that long before I suggest designing Manticore Gunships and pushing for Light Cruisers to be built.

And we will need to make several Light Cruisers (which could take another RL year assuming our crafting capacity doesn't see similar gains in that timeframe to build those alone) before we can really justify making larger craft than that. At that point you are building ships the same size as modern cruisers or bigger. You wanna make damn sure you got the material science worked out completely.

Edit: Fun fact. That's 20 Olympic swimming pools of mercury.

I think we should just go ahead and drain the entire Mercury lake we claimed. It's a vitally important strategic resource, so bringing it more fully under our control makes good sense.

An hour with a set of Titan's Tools to properly prepare an underground storage space, then a few Create Greater Demiplane spells courtesy of Wild Arcana, and we could drain the entire lake in minutes.

@Goldfish, doesn't she need Precocious Apprentice to qualify for Mystic Theurge at the right level? Or did I miss something?

She needed it and Alternative Spell Source to qualify for Mystic Theurge originally, but now that she's well into the class and capable of casting 2nd level Arcane and Divine spells without that workaround, I don't see why she couldn't retrain it. I've kept Blade Tutor's Spirit as her new 2nd level Arcane spell, so it's really just like her training further developed in an organic manner, firming up Anya's grasp of her own magic and further expanding it by learning Expanded Arcana.

As you will.
 
So after Anya's leveled, there's just Jeyne and Roger I believe, and we're all caught up. Both those are so uneventful that they can probably be done together.

Edit: I really need to redo Kennos' sheet to reflect his re-training and level-up...

We also need to anticipate an upcoming level up for the Awakened Adamantine Golem in Unchained Monk, though that might take a few more months depending on rolls.
 
Speaking of Plane of Earth. When are we gonna finally get that ritual go make items that purge Bilestone? And see if the Xorn wont take orders for them to make some for us.

We can sacrifice it to the Merling King. It's faster and gives BOONS.

I thought he didnt take bilestone sacrifices? Or atleast it took him months to clear out a cave of the stuff?

In any case I'd like some of the them for in field clearing of bilestone. And I just remembered we forgot your Weirwood weapons for the Treants.(the ones that let you grow Heart Trees from the things you kill using it)

Fairly sure we sacrificed a whole idol of the stuff. And if it takes longer for larger amounts than that, once we've cleared out all the stuff inside of a fortress, sanctifying the grounds, watching over it and letting it convert into regular stone basically means we can have the tritons garrison a free fortress, no construction needed, likely using all the sacrifice juice for some free defenses geared toward anti-aberration tactics. Or better, suborning their wards... learning from them. After we've purged the unclean from it, obviously. :V

Edit: Though I guess the silver spikes would be faster... fiiiine. I'm just tired of diversions.

From what we've seen it isn't actually faster.

Yes, the Merling King gives boons, but the method our Xorn friends had was literally instantaneous. The applications for that against, say, a wall in a Deep Ones fortress where the entire structure withers away to nothing speak for themselves.

If you're against going for it we can just ask DP to take care of it OOC. This isn't exactly vital to cover IC, and considering it's just on the other side of the Terminus we can send an Erinyes on the errand for us.

No, no, we can detour... we are probably going to want to catch up with our cute little rock friends and make sure they're not getting worked over by bandits or some nonsense like that. They probably feel too indebted to ask for help. Though I think they have some sort of arrangement with the Shaitan, anyway, and there are probably more patrols making their way in that direction because of the economic importance of the Terminus passage...
 
Speaking off did we ever actually give them that Heart tree? I remember we made one for the Opaline Baults Temple Quarter. But the Xorn and those Stone Giants from way back when were supposed to get their own ones too right?

They should be fine. They've been doing very well since getting into business with us.

Given the way we know the Shaitan deliberately indebt and exploit satellite settlements, the less they have to call on that the better.

And unfortunately their relationship to us doesn't even protect them from such practices as it's both the legal and cultural norm.

Well, even if we can't assume they're not being exploited due to being close trade partners with us, we can offer support if they're being shaken down by anyone, diplomatic, legal or otherwise (busting heads).

Didn't the vote tally use to show all current suggestions? Right now it just shows me that 13 people have voted for Crake, but not what Crake actually suggested.
