[x] Do not. If he hasn't told you by this point, then you probably shouldn't pry into his personal life.
 
how about this for armor? also @ilbgar123 can serras control a entire battalion of automated armors and essentially have multiple bodies with her level of melee skills and boosts?
 
That's why they'd be attached to the armor, they could have auto targeting using the armor's processing power, like War Machine's armor.

As independent turrets, they could carry their own processing power, which doesn't need to be of meaningful size, and wouldn't get in the way, as they'd be floating in the air.

Well, maybe. She has the Technomancy for it, but the question is how much of her 'processing power' it would take up out of her psyker powers. Creating a big storm or earthquake is more a power thing than a control thing.
 
I'm honestly slowly falling more in love with a more mechanicus aspect and going super mass fire and ppunchy. Drone support alongside the 'turrets' attatched. I'll try and do some consepts for tomorrow
 
easier to take control of tech the more advanced it is to support more of a machine spirit, and remember we can boost our suit, so we can probably wear heavy armor and still move like it is light armor

Basically. You'd struggle to do much with, say, a clockwork clock, but anything with an actual computer in it is more or less unable to resist your control.

Oh for-How many times does it need to be said that the Emperor isn't going to kill us just for not having certain skills since that would be a dick move on the QMs part?

Who said anything about killing us? Big E was sort of dickish to a lot of his children, and really didn't give his psychic children much freedom.

When the council of Nikaea was called, sorcery was outright banned, and he was fine with it.

After the age of strife, where uncontrolled psykers were seen as the cause of the collapse of civilization, most humans hate psykers. That's especially true of the imperium, and many of the primarchs.

If we want to use our powers openly, create and use psykers in our forces, and help magnus and others not be completely hated and shunned for stupid reasons, we'll need high diplo, perception: people, and other related stats. Not to mention a way to safely train psykers.

No one's going to kill us, but we could easily be disliked or hated by a lot of people, and have our options limited.
 
From what happened to Magnus in canon, I'd suspect that fear of psykers won't be a nonfactor. However, I'd think that in addition to Diplomacy (which we'll need anyway to change policies, play therapists to Primarchs and others at risk of falling, and consider interactions with other species other than total genocide) and Control (which we'll need anyway to deny Chaos and to add to some of our Psyker rolls), there's multiple ways to deal with stuff. Show the Emperor that Psyker stuff can be used to help human civilization as a whole, like via technomancy or biomancy or whatever, rather than learning Psyker stuff for the sake of learning it. Get our karma super high and act as a role model of justice and heroism.
 
Gerald Newton SL 1->2 Resolution.
You decide to give him the benefit of the doubt. However, you do stay the night to make sure he actually gets something to eat in the morning. When he wakes up, and immediately shovels down the food you prepared, you take the opportunity to speak with him. "Mr. Newton, I'm not going to ask why..." You vaguely gesture at the coffee robots. "all this keeps happening, but I'd like to point out that I'm not always going to be around to help you with whatever project you're raving about, so I think you should get a full-time assistant."

Diplomacy Check: 20: Required: 10.

20: Required: 20. Reduced difficulty by 50.

Speech: Persuasion: 100. Required: 0.

100. Required: 25.

100. Required: 50.

100. Required: 75.

160/310 to Level 22.

"Hm, you may have a point. I'll have a look for potential candidates." He agreed. "I appreciate the show of trust, however. I'll tell you the specifics some day."

Reward: +10 Karma. SL 1->3. +15 to Invention categories.

Necessity: 75. You can create top-of the line gadgets from garbage. Literal garbage. It's amazing what people throw away without thinking about it. Slight reduction in difficulty of Invention Checks.

Practicality: 75. When faced with a project you lack the materials, you can redraw the blueprints to create something better with other materials. Slight reduction in difficulty of Invention Checks.

Extravagance: 75. You can actually improve products with extra investment with great efficiency now. You may double a creation's specs for 1.5 times the cost, triple them for 5 times the cost, or quadruple them for 16 times the cost.
 
Perhaps we should Tag Perception so that auto-progresses regardless?

I'm very tempted to become the "diplomancer" or "therapist" primarch, so that would be one of the skills I'd want.
The primarchs have a ton of neuroses and daddy issues, not to mention their various spats that caused the horus heresy to begin with.

Can anything we do to help the war effort really compare to stabilizing the people behind it?

He knows that. He is, after all, the greatest psyker in existence. He's just more focused on bigger threats. He didn't really interfere with the council of Nikaea, so we may not have to convince him at all, just our fellow primarchs. The karma perks (and others) would come in handy there.

I REALLY want to see a Gloriana battleship and Emperor Class Titan made from the best parts/resources available when we have both of these at 200
 
There are warp based teleporters for singular units, correct? Not sure if that's an Ork bullshit thing. Thinking, theoretically, of a metric shit ton of force/power weapons with teleporters built in that we control telekinetically like a sci-fi Gate of Babylon...
