The Emperor hands a list of Crystals to make.
Glancing at the list, Serras is dumbfounded; "Father! You can't be serious!" she yells.
"I am." He replies.
"B-but... Crystals of 'Fluffiness' and 'Kittens'?"
"Indeed." The Emperor replied, thinking of his pet cat, dead some twelve thousand years.

Let's be real here. If this sort of situation ever happens in even the slightest manner, the thing at the top of that list would be 'Gold' and you know it. :p

1 using willpower detectors when selecting potentials

10 a regimen of gene therapy to bring them as close to astarteshood as possible without an actual gene seed before the operation

would work. Crystal priests are unlikely to really be a thing. Not in large numbers at least.

What would the survival rate be with all the Crystals at 10 and the Astartes Package at Good. Also, how much of an increase to the SDS bonus will there be when the sensors and crystals get upgraded and they can be used at their intended range?
 
well I've been asked to stop the argument so I won't point out some of the problems, but I have a question for you @ilbgar123. Could we have Nemesis/Hekate from The Last angel, and if we did, would Red One and Two count as souled AI? The have emotions, they think, they wonder on it so that would be interesting. More importantly, if we have them and they have souls, the possibility of being able to make those AI would be rather awesome.4

also, late happy birthday

I don't think they would be AI anymore if they have a soul, man machine maybe? (A human/entity living within machines in the purest way possible, having a soul and a will...not limited by programs either!)
 
More or less entirely. This has less effect on the initial pool, and more on the members of that pool passing or failing. So, Perturabo's Legion would still lack the sheer breadth of people to draw upon that, say, Gulliman's would possess, but they'd pass almost every time. Of course, it would expand the pool of potentials at least a bit, so Perturabo wouldn't be as hard-pressed for recruits as in canon.
 
We really should get our inventions together and have family time where we share most of our things with the family, not everything though! A primarch has to have some secrets you know!

I imagine we will soon be the family favorite if we're successful at this.

Say, Lags, could you add the total bonuses to the PDF rolls, industry, and morale to your Informational? I ask because the Webway progress depends on that and I'll be doing it once the talk with Emps ends regardless of the result.
 
Is there a minor actions plan in existence yet? I recall there being an old one which was rendered obsolete by all the research perks.

If so, does it contain the choirs we need to upgrade our range? Because we really need to do that so we can keep contacting siblings.

The current favored Minor Action Plan is @King Arthur's Crystal Plan. As the name implies it's crystals and nothing else. With how many minor actions we got we can spare a few for other essentials like Sensors, Materials Science, Cogitators and other tech.

Aye, get crystals and other smaller inventions done and get our best crystal being to be able to survive a chaos alpha strike!
 
no minor plan yet as we are still deciding on exactly which crystals to upgrade, if we should upgrade skills and stats, and if we should convert minor actions to research actions

Hmmm... Well I'd really like to get Accuracy and preferably also Aim but his plan looks pretty decent.
 
I finally got why the bonus that we got from our wargear / workshop was so much bigger then i first thought ...

I thought that they were be additions with each other ... they are multipicative with each other so it went from a 2.7 to a 4.3 (1.25*1,5*1.1*1.1*1.25*1.5), so if we see any more perks that interact with these we really should get them as fast as we can.

The number of other techs should have gone up as the amount of action need to max something went from i think 12 to 7 and we will be able to get more crystals done then before (even more with certain crystals done) from 3 to 2 for 5 runes/crystals, so a rebuild of said plan is certain. these will likely also include all the crystals that give boost to research or getting our stats up.
 
@ilbgar123, will it eventually be possible to make the runic language an actual language. Like, with grammar and conjunctions and prepositions and such. If so, what would happen if we wrote an actual sentence?

How many bonuses were added to Look For Brothers again? I think it was 4?

Yeah I think so. IIRC @Sir LagsAlot used all four of his +10 bonuses on this roll.

EDIT: @Higure also used their bonus. We should have an 85% chance of meeting Horus. Anyone else willing to put in a bonus roll or two, make it guaranteed or would that be overkill?

EDIT 2: Apparently @Higure used their vote on a previous Look For Brothers vote. We're back at 75% chance. Anyone willing to donate a roll? We need just one to auto pass and meet Horus.

I'll dump part of my plan in here for now. It should bring up all the tagged items to 200, and should leave us with 8 basic skills to tag and bring up to 200. f It's also heavy on integration actions, because with more than 100 diplomacy actions, we're going to hit a WAAAGH for sure.

Minor Actions (x79=57+22 from Major)
[ ] [Minor] [SL] Magnus (x1)
[ ] [Minor] [SL] Rogal Dorn (x1)
[ ] [Minor] [SL] Mehtrya (x1)
[ ] [Minor] [SL] Albert Salnus (x2) (max out parent SL and Speech)
(+5)
[ ] [Minor] [Train Skills] Electronics: Security (x3)
[ ] [Minor] [Train Skills] Combat: Stealth (x3)
[ ] [Minor] [Train Skills] Perception: Environment (x3)

[ ] [Minor] [Train Skills] Invention: Industry (x5)
[ ] [Minor] [Train Skills] Invention: Luxury (x5)
[ ] [Minor] [Train Stats] Learning (x4)

Free Booster Action
[ ] [Booster] Free Booster Crystal on Control

Integration Actions (x139)
[ ] [Integration] The Android Situation (x10): Figure out how to integrate them fully without issues from the Mechanicum. Find out why they could not make more of themselves.
[ ] [Integration] Tour the Bastion Sector (x10): We have all these shiny new planets, and we want to know more about their worlds and their people.
- [ ] Network with very important people!
- [ ] Visit cultural heritage sites of various planets!
- [ ] Find out the unique exports of various planets!
- [ ] Release the Propaganda Machine!
- [ ] Greet the peasants! :V
[ ] [Integration] Improve the Guard Command and Fleet Command. (x10): While you might rewritten the manual on warfare several times, it won't do any good if the admirals and generals in your army have not studied them to heart, or if your army and navy themselves are not organized enough to follow their commands.
- [ ] Improve the organization standards of our army and navy.
- [ ] Set up Academies to train recruited officers and troops.
- [ ] Increase recruitment drive for our army and navy.
- [ ] Set up War games to promote combat readiness.
- [ ] Promote meritocracy within our army and navy.
[ ] [Integration] Improve the Scientific Enterprise (x10): Improve existing R&D organizations, bringing the research capabilities of our polity slightly closer to Serras.
- [ ] Improve integration between classical scientists, tech-priests, quarian technicians, and various tech-sects within Bastion.
- [ ] Improve protocols for resource allocation, research sharing, vetting, and safeguard.
[ ] [Integration] Diplomacy (x99)

Survey Actions (x62)
[ ] [Survey] (x62)

As for Inventions... Beyond Crystals, I feel that we should have these ready at the very least:
[ ] [Invention] Improve Material Science
[ ] [Invention] Improve Sensors
[ ] [Invention] Improve Ship Laser
[ ] [Invention] Improve Replicator Efficiency
[ ] [Invention] Improve Astartes Package
[ ] [Invention] Improve Power Armour
[ ] [Invention] Improve Ship Designs
[ ] [Invention] Improve Booster Crystals

With the number of Diplomacy and Survey actions, it's pretty likely we're going to hit a big enemy soon, so would like to get our army and navy up to snuff right away.
