Hmm, might have to do something about Piety getting too low. But if we finish 'We Are One People!' during this Turn, we will get +15%.
The Healers are no longer the single ruling faction among the Herbalists.
Strange that we are supposed to be on the same level of information gathering as with the Military but we don't get any plans for either gang. I would assume there are some rumors, even if they only feed us false information...
The new Artefacts. Weird that we can get tips for crafting armor from a doll.
Yes, we actually ask the weird eldritch voices questions now. Probably a horrible idea given what some boxes get up to.
We probably have to be on the lookout for gangs looking for revenge from now on. They have to do something if they want to keep their groups intact while we improve living standards.
I mean, they might want to wait until tomorrow and they are sure there aren't any sudden toilet visits. But yes, progress. Now to test if those preservation chemicals/methods interact weirdly with anything that could be eaten or drunk.
The first of many.
...Ugh, we have soo much to build. Mausoleums, food kitchens, poorhouses, hospices, asylums, etc.
I assume this is from the Bad Batch. In which case... That's weirdly good security for a 'random' street gang. Like mechanically, this is supposed to get us the second out of three possible levels of information on an organization.
Sounds like we will need many robots to scout areas in those Caverns. Only a 17% Success Chance, so we would need to roll 83 or higher... A fully rested Aria with Martyris' support(organizational) could get us a +50.
On the other hand, even a failed roll has only a 50/50 chance to kill people.
No moving the monks, got it. I wonder what exactly they keep locked up though? Mentioning this to Internal Security might get us some extra watchers on the islands.
Huh, I wonder what that means. An alternative sealing method or are they developing the ability to float? The latter would definitely weird out the Forge Clans.
Good to know. That also implies anything eldritch must have some guiding will behind it. There can't be some random circumstances that cause an effect.
Hmm, 3-Point would make building stuff much quicker and allows us to train all kinds of specialists. I would note they also aren't too pissed if we give the gem to the Forge Clan.
The Forge Clan would mean quicker research and having some serious firepower nearby. "unlimited Training Actions" also imply we can train as many engineers at once as we want, unlike the University which is probably limited in the amount of people we can send during the same Turn. Getting more and better engineers is big for any Electronic research.
Tempting for long-term projects, of which we have several by now. But the Piety cost is... ouch. Would probably need 3 Faith Actions focused on building stuff that reduces our Piety rolls.
I think that would get us a bit too close to the Empire. They are currently the biggest force of improvement for sentient life on this planet but they might not always be.
Sounds like the Black Forest. We might get dragged into this either way but Crinkles went out of his way to tell them to shove it. And we know Internal Security(and presumably those Night Warden guys) are already on this.
Souls Language is tempting for the widespread use, Open Hand would make orphanages and other buildings much easier, and Conquered Skies would be great for airship research.
But there is the issue of our Action economy. Souls Language is pretty neat in that due to its wide Action category coverage...
What can we actually do here? Send units to capture wildlife? Set up a research outpost for biology studies?
- Pronouns
- He/Him
A lot of research, actually, once we start upgrading from regular to the fully trained. The amount of types we can apply them to sky-rockets. Anyway, my two rough drafts cover the options if we accept 3-Point or the Forge-Clan.
Eh, Open Hand applies to the Faith stuff where we would be dedicating actions anyway. I'd go with that or Conquered Skies.

You are, but you only just finished getting the system in place this turn, and you are very cautious about false intel now. Like always, you will get actionable intel starting next turn.
Spend a turn of scavenging to hunt/observe the animals for the artifacts.karmaoa said:
- Pronouns
- He/Him
So that means an effective 5 turns total to complete SST-01, or something else?

The first turn has you roll for both Artifacts, after which the second will vanish.

Good, good. Nice and simple then.
Ok, so a plan draft. I'm going to keep the Data Crystal and Tenet vote separate from the plan itself. If people really want to build another orphanage then I could make the Doctrine of the Open Hand part of the plan, because that would remove the huge 25 Faithfull cost.
@HeroCooky A bunch of questions:
1. The Piety cost for 'Begin Preparations For New Region Conversion' only hits on the second Turn, right?
2. Would administrative stuff like founding an orphanage go over the Bureau For Imperial Civilian Logistics or the local Noble House?
3. Could 'Scout The Machinery Caverns' be done as a Martial Action, given that it's basically a more specialized 'Scout Out'?
4. Would Engineers give a bonus to 'Scout The Machinery Caverns' by dint of the sheer mass of Artefacts and Lost tech that makes up the caverns?
[] [Forge-Clan Vanar-Feer Counteroffer] The Journey of Machine and Mind
[] Another one, sometime later. There is still so much to do...
-[] Doctrine of the Open Hand
I'm not sure about some of those options. Faith heavily depends on the doctrine, Open Hand is the only thing that would make another orphanage feasible. Martial depends on if we can use that Action for scouting, but either way, want a unit we can send with the new Pilgrims Chapter.
Learning... We get another 5 Successes for 'Coilgun Mystery', finish 'The Mind - Compulsive Behaviour' with the last Success, and do 'Look At The Daughters Suspendium Systems' in a single Turn with Forge Clan help. That does leave our Engineers and Doctors unassigned.
Archeology, and by extension Martyris Action, heavily depend on if we can use the Engineers to help with the Machine Caverns. If we can, then I would spend an Archeology Action on a Suspendium expedition and use Martyris Action to boost that.
The Tree gets another Sandcrete for the Electronics Manufacture, so we can finish that in 2 Turns.
Aria 'Relaxes' so we can use her +20 during the next Turn to counter the Piety drain from founding a new Chapter.

1. Yes, the cost is chosen and then it is paid, not before.
2. The first.
3. It can.
4. They would.
- Pronouns
- He/Him
We don't need to use our Scientists for this. 1 success is needed and the target is 45. So if need be we just spend 1 Bunker Hospital Artifact. Also...
@HeroCooky if the 3PU auto-building progress applies right away if we take their offer, wouldn't the same go for the Learning auto-successes if we take the Vanar-Feer offer?
It would be feasible next turn after having Guiding Hand in effect, but I understand wanting to get those in sooner.
We already met our Suspendium requirement for this two-turn period. We don't have to start thinking about the expedition until next turn, or the turn after that if we must.

It does apply this turn, you are correct in your assumption.

This way we get 6 successes towards the Coilguns without splurging on Electronics artifacts, we'll be on track to complete the Orphanage in a year's time, and avoid some Goodwill spends that I don't think are quite necessary at this moment. Odds and Ends aren't really needed for Scouting - we've got a 4 in 5 success chance and a reroll if that fails, and we have the Diplomacy reroll for the Forge-Clans - or We Are One People! and neither is going to be a disaster if we don't succeed this turn. Nor do we need to jump on prep for Improve Your Poorhouses right this turn.
Columbo: "Just one more thing."
Last turn was 2 turns, so it should be 1 turn now.

In doubt there's always the Sun!
I .mean it likely was built very sturdy and anotomicaly correct.
You know, if you don't want to use bunker artefacts we have this under Lost Tech
It's more thematic and it saves Bright-Lances for when we try to reverse engineer.
Also, found the next target for an investigation action.

To be precise, I don't want to use the Electronics Bunker Artifacts. The reason I want to loot the NNE part of the First Floor is to provide Weapons Artifacts we can use in their place...
...But in light of the saving for that, I will grudgingly agree to spend 3 Electronics Bunker Artifacts this one time.
Going for doubling the needed roll to get extra Successes, huh? Well, it's going to be interesting how the Noble Houses are going to react. Might want to add the Followers Of Light support as a cover against that.
I have been thinking of switching this to the Bureau For Imperial Civilian Logistics, under the assumption that the +15 could influence some of our Faith projects due to the Bureau being responsible for the bureaucratic part of allowing those projects.
You could add 'Odds and Ends' here. Might not matter too much but the extra Piety from finishing this would directly boost Martyri's dice.
We probably should think about where we want to send the new Chapter if we want to specialize the new unit for the environment. As is, they have good armor, firepower, and a close combat option. But where they will operate influences how useful mortars and robots would be.
Of course, we can spend the next Turn specializing them. Potentially even spend another Martial Action slot to get upgrades like Armor Weight Specialization or Reaction Training.
Might have to look into Stealth Training anyway if that could influence scout Actions.
You know, it might be better to spend this on getting electronics for the 'Assemble A Logic Bank - (Holdings)' project. Would mean we could finish it during the next Turn and unlock that Action slot earlier for Holding.
Still not sure what to do with this. The rumor mill didn't have anything too urgent to investigate. We could look into why the Adventurer Guild recruits so much or have them poke the Carnival. Or we could spend 4 Goodwill to get some equipment, potentially a Weapon Artefact.
@HeroCooky could we hire a bunch of Adventurers to get a bonus to the Machine Cavern exploration? Look for some people that have already explored other caverns and know the most common dangers?

You can. +10 to the attempt.

I already had We Work As One! included.
Hmm. Maybe, maybe not. Depends on what HeroCooky says.
As it stands, it's not worth it because the chances of success are too low. Now, next turn, with the presumed +15 bonus and possibly a Lead By Example? Then, adding in the Odds and Ends makes more sense to me.
I figured we'd be sending the new Chapter to the Sunken Hollows because that was why we were holding onto the Torahs - as a gift to the Order of the Flaming Sword. So if you have thoughts about what would be best, we can tailor the equipment now and save ourselves the time.
Hmm. You have a point. Editing that in.
Excellent. Edited in.

Hmm. Something just occurred to me. Can we refit the First Son line to Caravaners? Given the superiority of the latter in all regards, it would make a lot more sense to stop producing the now-outdated stuff.

With a Norqod Action, you can do so.

Can you put up the details in the turnpost then please?
