I think that the Gav'rhanti Republic is about to have a bad time. I'm sure we can cheer them up by showing off all the cool weaponry we just got done researching.

I'm assuming you mean cheering the people who are angry and not cheering up the Gav'rhant republic.

Well looks like we're going to war again.

Sarcasm does not translate well over the medium of the internet. Though, I think the use of suspendium weapons probably does look really cool to whoever is watching ... but only for a short time when you're at the receiving end.

A border-nation to the Empire of Slatnan and its vassals, generally not important in the grand scheme of things beyond existing upon land that can be farmed for food and mined for metals.
Hmm. False flag?
Cultists, another power, criminals or our own people?

Sounds like we might get a new war soon.
Right, the Verdant Children wanted pre-Collapse suits. Might be worth sending some, if we looted them out of the Bunker, and maybe an Electronic related Artifact for repairs.
Could be nothing, could be her getting poisoned. Or she's pregnant.
Might want to send them another military unit or more robots. I wonder if we could get started on developing simpler versions of Guardian robots?
Do they automatically get any of our research that would be relevant to them? Some of the farming related stuff we have would fit. Might also need more guards, if the local farm/plantation owners use inflated food prices to keep their workers in debt bondage, and our kitchens would disrupt that.
Questers are angry about the assassination attempt last season.
We should send her a doctor just in case

Well, it was already time for her to Relax next turn, now we have the perfect excuse.
We're up to 8.08 now, so add an extra 0.5 to your calculations.
Yeah, they seem like a questionable culprit, both in capability, and motivation. No wonder InSec is trying to keep a lid of things, they probably suspect a false flag as much as we do.
We already did a while back.
Given that we had to send a Wetlands Farming Kit to share our research there with Sunken Hollows, I don't think so. And I already planned for next turn to send them a kit for the Natural Pesticides and Animal Medicine.
We already sent them some doctors.
Ah, in that case I think it should be fine... Let me check if we have medicine relic to send

Yeah, you send everything to your Chapters. Just in case they might need it, or can give it to people who do.
We already sent them the suits. Also, it seems like the chapter can handle the repairs on their own, so I don't think its necessary to send them help right now.
- Pronouns
- He/Him
So I have my plans for the next two turns pretty sketched out. Here are the high points:
- Finishing cleaning the Black Hole Villages
- Doing the pleasure yacht line so we have one of everything built, then design the Flagship
- Starting on the Training Halls so our pipeline for crew and skyneers continues to expand to meet demands
- Having the Merchants Guild establish airship basing in Slatnan's Womb
- Pushing forward on Lance and Scattershot so all our coilgun variants reach Standard quality
- Setting things up for and completing Spectating Mass and Little Crystal Pt. 2
- Speeding forward the completion of the Bunker's Third Floor and the Smokestack Bowels
So Cooky updated the components. Good news and bad news.
Good news, the Suspendium lance went from 100 to 65 power per shot, it crew was also reduced to 35 from 50.
Bad news, the Sus Lance now wheighs 50k kilos more.
I'll update the designs tonight when I'm back at the computer,but it looks like its going to be one Lance and one regular sus rifle for the flagship.
Edit: scratch that last bit. Its going to have to be two regular sus rifles, don't have the wheight for a lance and another weapon.

Dossier On the Merchants Guild
The Merchants Guild is a collection of mercantile interests that sprouted from an edict in 597 AC, collecting from early monopolies and proto-guilds into the form we all know today. The 'Edict of Mercantile Alignment' is a collection of laws that govern many widely-reaching aspects of trade, such as the minimum prize one can charge for essential goods such as bread, cloth, and salt, and the absolute maximum weight of goods such as medical supplies and number of individual Artifacts that can be bought by a merchant.
Undeniably unpopular at the time, and some Merchants still harbor ill will against the Edict when nursing one drink too many, the Edict has, nonetheless, pre-empted several budding economic catastrophes within the Empire at the time, which allowed a later revision of the Edict to turn the mercantile guilds of the Empire from one semi-cohesive blob of networks, companies, caravans, and industrialists into one economic engine with official Imperial Backing.
That said backing also comes with strings attached to make the Guild dance according to the whims of the Imperial Family is well understood, and fiercely contested behind closed doors and shuttered windows.
Beyond that, the Merchants Guild is the go-to contact for nearly every Region of the Empire when one requires large amounts of resources for construction, transportation, festivities, and more. Additionally, timed contracts for fixed trade routes are openly offered to members seeking guaranteed, if slim, profits. Requests for goods or rumors about opportunities are traded within a guild hall or a caravansery whenever two merchants gather, the scent of coins always alluring to their minds and sensibilities.
Dossier On the Union of Herbalists
The Union of Herbalists is a Guild native to Tessen. It was created by a trio of rivals sick of fighting with each other over customers and herbs. They chose to set aside their grudges in favor of uniting their expertise, materials, funds, and apprentices to focus on personal projects without the others thinking they need to act against the others lest they get left behind in either research or funds.
All three died in completely unrelated poisonings the same day, with no culprit ever found nor any motive uncovered. It is assumed that they foolishly tested new medicine on themselves, dying from the side effects.
Their apprentices, used and abused in their rivalry, mourned their passing for a long time and created a statue in their honor, viewable in the main courtyard of the Herbalists' Central Hall.
Centuries later, the Herbalists Guild has grown to encompass a large campus where around three hundred students and teachers study and learn anatomy, surgery, herbal lore, general medicine, and specialized medicine. Their studies are enhanced by the hands-on experience gained in an attached student hospital, supported by medicine gardens and synthesization laboratories, which provide the students with everything required to heal patients except for surgery tools.
However, the Herbalists Guild is divided into three schools of thought amongst themselves who, though all agree to the fundamental moral good of healing another person, wish to take the Guild in a direction generally not supported by the others, using powerful backers, such as the Healers making use of their connections to the Pilgrimage, to increase their influence within the Guild itself.
The Fundamentalists see no reason to try dangerous and untested methods of medicine on patients until they are well-studied and well-practiced, both in animal and human trials when applicable, with any usage of non-replicable technologies scorned and warned against.
The Progressivists find the idea of not using the tools available to them distasteful at best and outright maliciously incompetent at worst. In their eyes, any tool can be used to advance the study of bacteria, viruses, parasites, the human body, and all forms of diseases and wounds alongside their treatment methods. Refusing to utilize them is akin to refusing to clean, sterilize, stitch, and bandage a deep cut.
The Healers are, in all truth, interested in only one thing; healing people as fast as possible with as little pain as possible for enough money to see the next patient as quickly as possible. As long as they can continue to heal people, they are okay with advancing their methods or utilizing risky operations, but they do not believe that further advancement in medical sciences should be at the forefront of the Guild's mind. Healing people should be.
Dossier On the Stupendously Scholastic Scholars of Science
The 4S were born from a collection of bored academics seeking intellectual stimulation and peers with which to converse, challenge themselves, and find enjoyable areas of study or engineering to apply themselves toward.
Initially more of an open circle where membership was informal and reliant on knowing someone already within the budding 4S, over time, the same loose connections solidified into the Guild known today, centered around the advancement of technological understanding and the reverse-engineering of Artifacts that are within the comprehension of the learned people of the Empire.
They are, at least on an organizational level, uninterested in the study and replication of technology that cannot be used on a broader scale than single-use cases. Their charter warns against utilizing funds and dedicating time to the study of technologies that are beyond humanity's grasp.
That said, on an individual level, the 4S are very much interested in the challenges posed by trying to comprehend the barely comprehensible, the alien, and the unknown. Many of their members find pure joy in slicing open the skein of reality and recording the guts that spill from deep within.
Thanks to the partnership with the Pilgrims, both of those itches—repairing the damaged structure of human understanding and delving deeper into the unknowable—are scratched on a constant basis.
It is with a grand celebration, one that perfectly matches Lady Silvia Jr.'s status and rank, that she, now an adult, is welcomed by her House as a full member, capable of making her own decisions, crafting her own legacy, and paving her own future beyond the guiding hands and guarding eyes of her parents.
In a week of cheer and celebration, the town of Norqod welcomes the Scion of House Dall, the heir apparent to her mother's nobility, and, more than that, a reminder of the unique position of their home as a place technically ruled over by a noble Mutated, even if only until Lady Silvia gives birth to a non-Mutated heir.
And it is during that week, when she officially becomes a woman given full legal charter over her life and limb, that she is presented with a gift, and a choice.
One gift given to her by Lord Markus Ulatarn.
The other, the choice of sight.
[][Eyes] Masterworks from House Vanar-Feer.
[][Eyes] Masterworks from a specialist in the Capital.
[][Eyes] The Artifact Eyes of Règle.
[][Eyes] None. At least for now.
[][The Gift of Lord Markus Ulatarn] A Spear made of wood, with a tip of black steel and jade inlays, its pole inscribed with an oath of his own making, and a language Silvia can read.
[][The Gift of Lord Markus Ulatarn] A perfume smelling of apples and citrus, softwood, and incense, the end of a heated day and the morning after rain.

Much time has passed since we laid the first stone and struck the first wall of rock within a city to carve out and build a shelter for all those souls who have lost nearly or entirely all that they once had, from mere material possessions to the much more important family ties and blood. Yet, though these halls, which were once cold waiting stones, now ring with the laughter and screams of children given a future, and those orphans without anything can quickly find a place here to grow into their personage, the Path is still a long one for these structures. We gave these children a home and a chance at a future. Now, it is time for us to turn that chance into a certainty.

[X] Build Outlying Fortified Orphanages - (3/10 Turns Complete)
Now that every major City in Tessen is host to a grand edifice for the raising and sheltering of the most vulnerable of society, where the little ones can grow in peace and with enough meals to avoid going hungry (if not always by a tasty meal), alongside the chance to enter an apprenticeship should they not be adopted by couples before they grow too old and begin to age out of the system. The last part alone is far more than many can provide, as it takes time and money to train the next generation, and not many who shelter children from the horrors that took their families have the kind of money such would require. But we can, and with the cities covered, it is time to go over the towns outside the Green Zone, though they need to be far more armored and armed than those in the Cities.

Nothing stands between the creation of an Asylum led by the Pilgrims now. Contact local builders, set Marxcim to design the structure, and call for volunteers to be trained and paid to care for the patients. Of course, some will see the giving over of the mentally ill to a religion-led institution as a terrible idea. Still, those voices will cease after some time, and hopefully, recovered patients will walk out of the Asylum.

The brothels we built have rapidly gained a reputation as a high-class establishment. While good for our purse, it is less suitable for those with less than 'expert talents' within the industry. By building new floors and digging some down, we could make enough space for all who tried to work in the Consensual but had to be turned away due to all rooms being full. With them, we can also build upon our work in helping those trying to escape forced Sex Work with better security a must.

[ ] Cleaning Up The Mess - (Choose City)
Despite all we currently know about how Black Hole Villages operate, are constructed, and unintentionally reinforce poverty and crime via a feedback loop, helping those stuck within them will not be easy. Nor will it be a quick thing, done once and done cheaply. It will cost us money, time, materials, connections, and favors to help the Mutated within turn the villages into a settlement that people can live in without considering the sword's edge.

Yet, though these halls, which were once cold waiting stones, now ring with the laughter and screams of children given a future, and those orphans without anything can quickly find a place here to grow into their personage, the Path is still a long one for these structures. We gave these children a home and a chance at a future. Now, it is time for us to turn that chance into a certainty.
(Reward: -2 to Piety rolls, +1 Follower per Turn.)
[X] Build Outlying Fortified Orphanages - (3/10 Turns Complete)
Now that every major City in Tessen is host to a grand edifice for the raising and sheltering of the most vulnerable of society, where the little ones can grow in peace and with enough meals to avoid going hungry (if not always by a tasty meal), alongside the chance to enter an apprenticeship should they not be adopted by couples before they grow too old and begin to age out of the system. The last part alone is far more than many can provide, as it takes time and money to train the next generation, and not many who shelter children from the horrors that took their families have the kind of money such would require. But we can, and with the cities covered, it is time to go over the towns outside the Green Zone, though they need to be far more armored and armed than those in the Cities.
(Turns: 10
Reward: 0.01 Goodwill, -20 to Piety rolls.)
[ ] Build A Humane Asylum - (Location)
Nothing stands between the creation of an Asylum led by the Pilgrims now. Contact local builders, set Marxcim to design the structure, and call for volunteers to be trained and paid to care for the patients. Of course, some will see the giving over of the mentally ill to a religion-led institution as a terrible idea. Still, those voices will cease after some time, and hopefully, recovered patients will walk out of the Asylum. With ever-more knowledge of how the human mind functions come ever more means to treat those afflicted with mental diseases.
(Turns: 2
Cost: 5 Goodwill
Reward: Humane Asylum, -4 to Piety rolls, +0.20 Goodwill per Turn.)
-[ ] Expand One Instead - (Location)
(Turns: 1
Cost: 9.00 Goodwill
Reward: Expanded Humane Asylum, +0.30 Goodwill per Turn.)
[ ] Build Upon The 'Consensuals'
The brothels we built have rapidly gained a reputation as a high-class establishment. While good for our purse, it is less suitable for those with less than 'expert talents' within the industry. By building new floors and digging some down, we could make enough space for all who tried to work in the Consensual but had to be turned away due to all rooms being full. With them, we can also build upon our work in helping those trying to escape forced Sex Work with better security a must.
(Reward: Upgraded 'Consensuals,' -1 to Piety rolls, +0.04 Goodwill. Unlocks another Building.)
[ ] Cleaning Up The Mess - (Choose City)
Despite all we currently know about how Black Hole Villages operate, are constructed, and unintentionally reinforce poverty and crime via a feedback loop, helping those stuck within them will not be easy. Nor will it be a quick thing, done once and done cheaply. It will cost us money, time, materials, connections, and favors to help the Mutated within turn the villages into a settlement that people can live in without considering the sword's edge.
(Turns: 2
Cost: 10 Goodwill
Reward: Lessened Suffering of the Mutated, -10 to Piety rolls.
Notice: Jokvi, Strul, Ularn, and Tessen have been "Cleaned.")
[ ] Mausoleum of the Forgotten - (City)
The last resting place of those who no longer have any that remember them, and the final site of their remains we manage to recover from wherever they died. Let their souls walk without the chains of disturbed slumber or defiled quiet.
(Turns: 2
Reward: Final resting place for the forgotten and discarded, -5 to Piety rolls.)
[ ] Healing For All! (Write-In Artifacts)
You have the money; they have the expertise. Announce that the Pilgrims will shoulder all costs for any medical procedure done by every doctor for the next three months.
(Chance: 70%
Reward: Healers gain Influence, 5d3 Goodwill.)
[ ] A Helping Hand
Now that you can create rugged high-grade prosthetics, more than merely producing and selling them is required. Unfortunately, too many veterans, injured, disabled, or unlucky, cannot afford a new arm, leg, hand, or foot. So, create a few thousand in bulk and ship them to where they are needed, where local Pilgrims may gift them as required.
(Chance: 99/50/25%
Reward: Gain 4/7/15d5 Goodwill.
[ ] Festival Of The Delta
With money comes the ability to sponsor festivals, and with our numbers, the capability to fully take advantage of the festival for our ends in learning, conciliation, and creation. It will be costly, but it will be worth it.
(Turns: 1
Chance: 50%
Reward: +2d8 Goodwill, +3d20 Recruits, +35 to all Actions this Turn if successful.)
-[] Seek Mutated Help - (XXX Goodwill)
(+1 to roll = 0.75 Goodwill)
[ ] A Small Donation - (Organization) - (Topic) - (Donation Sum)
As the Pilgrim's wealth increases, so does the need to play politics within the Big League. This directly translates to donations towards organizations (like newspapers) that work towards a goal we provide for them. Nothing they would be against doing, but something they would be adverse to in normal circumstances.
(Cost: 50-Unlimited Goodwill

[ ] As The Marquess Desires
House Tessen wishes for a Heavy-Class Airship capable of transporting no less than fifty (50) Knights and be able to service said Knights in matters relating to maintenance and light repairs, alongside heavy armaments, weaponry, and a generous allotment of storage to allow the airship to ferry supplies and troops to far-flung outposts and fortresses. This, of course, also requires some consideration for multiple passengers of high standing.
(Ship Requirements: 10x Knight Hangars, 1x Knight Repair Bay, 5x Noble Passenger Cabins, 2x Suspendium Weapons, at least 300 Armor, and 1x Figurehead Decoration.
Reward: House Tessen likes you more, automatically designs a heavy airship, and unlocks the Action to build it.

[ ] Suspendium Shaping Theory - (Pioneer Suspendium)
Thanks to our increased understanding of Suspendium, several important discoveries have been made, with the most important one being that Suspendium, if rightly treated, can be used as more than shards of a crystal but also as a pigment for tattoos. The implications of that discovery have haunted the Experimental Wing since, with dozens of theories and projections thrown around that point to the possibility that, if correctly treated, one could reshape the structure of Suspendium into liquid and non-natural shapes. The ability to interlace a lattice of Suspendium into a suit of armor or crate instead of painstakingly working it into the same would be nothing short of revolutionary, and that are merely the most obvious applications!

"It is imperative to the continued progress of native Airship construction and research that funds and attention are allocated toward projects like this to allow our constructed vessels to bear far more weight at far less risk and trade-offs than ever before. Even if the hard, grueling work of years this path entails does not have the same sexy or alluring appearance as other avenues of research in matters of lift, it will pay off in the long run, as evidenced by the small amounts of suspendium required to lift vessels of far larger size into the air found within the Forest of Rust."

[ ] The Training Halls of the Crews
While the creation of the School of Crews has allowed us to instill the basics into crewmembers, pilots, and captains, we must labor to increase the scope of their education so that they will be equipped to deal with a more extensive range of disasters, as well as train in semi-simulated environments to handle things while receiving first-hand experiences.

Keeping an airship running is not as easy when you are in the skies, especially if you do not have access to the parts you need to fix something critical immediately. Patchjobs are typical for long-standing airships when suffering a malfunction too many, and finding ways to flick what is broken with the tools one has is far more important than knowing how to repair things with materials you cannot reach. Now, if only we could stop the students from calling themselves 'Skyneers' while we are at it...

Military and commercial applications of airships have taken a dangerous precedent and priority for us, something that we cannot tolerate any longer. With airships, we can help so many more at so much less hassle and cost, aiding, in turn, more and more people in need. Flying with doctors and medicine to the places that need them instead of forcing them to arrive at one of our locations they may never be able to reach alive is but the most apparent use of something our scholars are rapidly calling "Temple Ships."

Arguing about the Paths and the Pilgrimage is good, yet there are places where one needs to set aside faith and replace it with uncertain certainty. Faith can guide us through the immaterial when there are no answers to be wrought, but Philosophy can guide us through the material when questions are all that are created by the answers we find.

[ ] Gardens of Levitation
A person's inner mind is as much a Path to travel as the physical Journey we all undertake. In a garden, one can ground themselves in nature and the works wrought by hand and guided minds, reflecting on what can be created if a desire exists and the shapes that our universe takes within these forms. By embracing weightlessness and detachment from gravity, one can enter a trance beneficial to beginning a Journey of the Inner Path.

[ ] A Coming Of Age Inscribed
While using tattoos to display one's allegiance and faith has long since been a part of the Pilgrimage that has been implicitly approved, the years since the discovery of Suspendium have turned this practice into a far more ritualistic affair, now tinted in the possibilities and assured knowledge of Suspendiums non-toxic nature. Finely ground down, treated in gentle heat, and then processed into a form of pigment, Suspendium has begun to be used by many, especially those of us who come of age, to display our Paths and Journey proudly and unafraid. Offering public approval and enshrining this practice as part of the Pilgrimage will bring a sense of community to us all while empowering those who fight to leave a past behind they have conquered.

[ ] The Great Trade Fleets - (Choose Region)
With the proliferation of airships, the abundance of goods within Tessen, and the dearth of forces that could threaten either once within the air, convincing the Merchant Guild to construct and maintain an airship depot and trading station within another Region will not be as impossible as before, but will require us to grease hands and argue fervently for the profits that could be made. No merchant likes a risk they do not think will pay off, so we should make them believe it will.
(Cost: 10 Goodwill
Chance: 25% (+70 if you add a pre-Collapse cargo airship to the deal.)
Turns: 3
Reward: Closer connection and rapid exchange of people, goods, and information with a chosen Region.)
[ ] We Are One People! - (Elites/Locals)
To harm someone because they look different is idiotic and utterly wrong. You cannot push another down and still call yourself righteous, no matter how they look. Even the lowest deserve our respect as fellow human beings. Start a propaganda campaign to change the Mutated view, unite the people, and start on the road to reconciliation.
(Chance: 20%/-80% for Elites/Locals (rolled each turn.)
Successes Needed: 4/8
Reward: +1 Relationship for the Mutated with the chosen faction, +40% Piety, 4d20 Recruits, +2d12 Goodwill)

Your Training for the diplomats is as comprehensive as possible to create for the foreseeable future. However, you need institutional knowledge or an in-depth look into one faction to help you more.

Subversion: Sometimes, you must convince people they need help with means other than an open hand and a friendly face. A dagger to the back of those who chain them would be a good start. (1 Action Locked)
[ ] Home of Night
A structure is needed to store, train, and keep things you'd rather not have out in the open, be they machines, people, or items. Several places have been considered, though only one, shielded in a small valley smothering everything within in an ever-present half-shadow, has proven suitable. Setting aside funds to create a keep there would prove trivial to your agents.
(Cost: 31 Goodwill, Upkeep: 7.5 Goodwill
Turns: 7
Reward: Home of Night allows you to train specialized Subversion Agents and unlocks Destabilization Actions.)
[ ] A Path Of Shadows
Training can only bring one so far, and tools will only pave over so many cracks and failures in learning and ability. It is time that those willing to hide in the shadows of the world for the benefit of the Pilgrims learn the difference between seeking to adapt to the blind seeking their traces and those seeing that perceive their wanderings.
(Cost: 25 Goodwill, Upkeep: 4 Goodwill
Turns: 7
Reward: Reduce the chance of your agents being caught and considerably reduce the impact of failures.)
[ ] Cover Of Mind
The mind of humankind is ever so fragile; even the slightest imbalance of its chemicals can lead to devastating changes in perception, memory, and motor function. A little nick here, a slight pierce there, some drops over yonder, and a minor waft of smoke...and bodies slump or minds see what is not there.
(Cost: 34 Goodwill, Upkeep: 11 Goodwill
Turns: 5
Reward: Improve all Assassination Actions, which allows you to send the same to other Chapters to help.)
[ ] Holding Chambers
Torture is inefficient, sloppy, and gives nothing but information spouted to stop the pain. Isolation and removal of all but the basest things, however...they can be good tools to use to ply weak minds to our advantage. It will also be an excellent place to store those you cannot kill but need to...dispose of.
(Cost: 21 Goodwill, Upkeep: 1.24 Goodwill

Reward: Holding Chambers, increasing gathered information from caught spies and subversives.)
[ ] The Good Gardeners
Every farmer and gardener will tell you plants need pruning. There needs to be someone going around, cutting off unwanted and unneeded parts of those plants, be they trees or bushes, to allow the rest to grow more healthily. Some plants need to be ripped out roots and stems so that they do not kill other plants that are good for the soil. Some may have fallen prey to blight and need to be removed for the good of all others. Those are valuable lessons to learn and good things to do. Find some people willing to become gardeners for the Pilgrims.

[ ] Neuotinium Experiments - (Pioneer Mechanics/Metallurgy/Hydraulics)
In our quest to improve our methods of creating Tiantemu, several exciting developments caused some of our metallurgists to start theorizing about possible methods to, if not create, then ape, a more primitive form of Neuotinium. Should we be successful, the creation of this ancient alloy mix would be a massive boon to both the Pilgrims and the Empire.
(Chance: -272/-386/-591% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes Needed: 89
Reward: Primitive Neuotinium can now be created by the Empire.
Breakthrough Research: +25% Success chance every 3 Turns!)
[ ] Pneumatic Tooling Advancements - (Advanced Hydraulics/Mechanics)
Well then, our understanding of steam and hydraulics has advanced so that, without further prompting, multiple engineers have started designing new ways to improve our pneumatic tools. We should support this endeavor, as shortened construction times benefit us all.
(Chance: 99/95/75% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 9

(Chance: 85/25/45% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 6
Reward: Increased Fuel Efficiency for all Steam Engines.)

(Chance: 65/-05/-95% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 11
Reward: Alika-Engine, focused on using Power rather than Fuel.)
[ ] Turn That Black Gold Green - (Pioneer Chemicals)
One of the blueprints we found in the Necropolis appears to be a production for a type of liquid fuel similar to oil, but it is made from a kind of alcohol derived from plants. If we could replicate this consistently, it would represent a massive step for our motor industries as we could further power our Airships without straining the valuable resource further.

[ ] Lances So Bright And Deadly - (Pioneer Weaponry/Electronics/Physics)
Bright-Lances are a known foe for any who delve into a Necropolis, and the Pilgrims are no exception. Over the years, we have gathered multiple examples of Bright-Lances, from components to damaged pieces and even an intact model or two. Many believe it is possible to uncover their secrets with this variety and number of samples.
(Cost: 10x Bright-Lance Artefacts
Chance: 99/99/99 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 4
Reward: Prototype Energy Weapon)
[ ] Cutting Edge Technology - (All Weaponry)
When facing your enemies up close and personal, you can never go wrong with a good blade in your hand. What makes a knife great comes down to the skill of the smith and the quality of the metal used. While we can't do much for the former, there is much to improve on the latter. Using samples from the Necropolis, we can determine which alloys work best for each blade type. They will be too expensive for everyday life, but our military forces will be glad to have them.
(Needed Artifact: Mono Titanium Blade
Chance: 99/99/50 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 3
Reward: +1 Damage for all bladed weapons per 3 Size of a Unit)
[ ] Coilgun Lance Extended - (Advanced Electronics/Weaponry)
Range is king in all engagements. If one side can harm the other, but they cannot be harmed back? Then, a winner is all but decided.
(Chance: 99/99/99 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 20
Reward: Standard Lance Coilgun.)
[ ] Coilgun Scattershot Extended- (Pioneer Electronics/Weaponry)
However, if an enemy is already nearby, killing as many as possible at once will confer many advantages.
(Chance: 99/99/42 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 38
Reward: Standard Scattershot Coilgun.)
[ ] Coilgun Repeater Repeated Repeatedly Rapidly Repeated - (Pioneer Electronics/Weaponry)
On the other hand, throwing as much metal in as little time as possible will do the same without suffering the setback of killing potential due to loss of accuracy over long ranges.
(Chance: 54/17/-37 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 23
Reward: Improved Repeater Coilgun.)
[ ] Gasses Long Forgotten - (Advanced Weaponry/Chemicals)
These tiny capsules promise to end a fight before it even begins, saving valuable lives. But, of course, building your own can only help you in the long run.
(Cost: Sleep-Gas Bombs
Chance: 99/90/50 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 10
Reward: Primitive Gas Grenades)
[ ] Burning Fire, Raging Ire - (Advanced Weaponry/Chemicals)
It is one thing to light a rag connected to alcohol and throw it, another to have a reliable fire grenade. Such chemicals and ancient mentions of how we could create those must exist.
(Chance: 90/60/30 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 3
Reward: Primitive Fire Grenade)
[ ] Fuck That Guy And Everything Around Him - Part 3 - (Advanced Physics/Chemicals/Weaponry)
Though this is a massive improvement over the last iteration, it is prudent to go over the plans once more to see what can be improved before starting over to further refine the mortar's concept and abilities.
(Chance: 80/40/00 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 24
Reward: Static Mortar - Improved, a powerful weapon with limited range and very good accuracy.)
[ ] BURN IN HOLY FIRE! - Part 1 - (Physics/All Chemicals/Advanced Weaponry)
Recently, your expedition acquired a surprisingly intact flamethrower from the Necropolis. Admittedly, the weapon may not be as good as those produced by the Forge-Clans today, but seeing as this version was intended for civilian use, you can excuse that. No pre-collapse government wanted potent weapons in the hands of their slaves, you see. Nonetheless, with this Artifact, you will start down the Path of creating Pilgrim-designed flamethrowers and all their uses in warfare and pest removal.
(Needed Artifact: Intact Civilian Flamethrower
Chance: 99/99/99 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 1
Reward: Primitive Flamethrower, BIHF Pt.2a + Pt.2b)
[ ] Repair The Hammer - (Weaponry/Metallurgy/Alloys)
Finding this weapon was a stroke of luck! After all, making a weapon for Knights is much more complicated than giving them a big metal piece! While damaged, patching and reinforcing the hammer should give your Knight/s a powerful weapon in future fights. It would also allow you to glimpse the inner workings of Knight Weapons.
(Needed Artifact: Damaged Knight-Weapon: Hammer

Reward: Prototype Energy Weapon)
[ ] Cutting Edge Technology - (All Weaponry)
When facing your enemies up close and personal, you can never go wrong with a good blade in your hand. What makes a knife great comes down to the skill of the smith and the quality of the metal used. While we can't do much for the former, there is much to improve on the latter. Using samples from the Necropolis, we can determine which alloys work best for each blade type. They will be too expensive for everyday life, but our military forces will be glad to have them.
(Needed Artifact: Mono Titanium Blade
Chance: 99/99/50 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 3
Reward: +1 Damage for all bladed weapons per 3 Size of a Unit)

(Chance: 80/40/00 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 24
Reward: Static Mortar - Improved, a powerful weapon with limited range and very good accuracy.)
[ ] BURN IN HOLY FIRE! - Part 1 - (Physics/All Chemicals/Advanced Weaponry)
Recently, your expedition acquired a surprisingly intact flamethrower from the Necropolis. Admittedly, the weapon may not be as good as those produced by the Forge-Clans today, but seeing as this version was intended for civilian use, you can excuse that. No pre-collapse government wanted potent weapons in the hands of their slaves, you see. Nonetheless, with this Artifact, you will start down the Path of creating Pilgrim-designed flamethrowers and all their uses in warfare and pest removal.
(Needed Artifact: Intact Civilian Flamethrower
Chance: 99/99/99 for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 1
Reward: Primitive Flamethrower, BIHF Pt.2a + Pt.2b)
[ ] Repair The Hammer - (Weaponry/Metallurgy/Alloys)
Finding this weapon was a stroke of luck! After all, making a weapon for Knights is much more complicated than giving them a big metal piece! While damaged, patching and reinforcing the hammer should give your Knight/s a powerful weapon in future fights. It would also allow you to glimpse the inner workings of Knight Weapons.
(Needed Artifact: Damaged Knight-Weapon: Hammer
Chance: 99/99/99% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 1
Reward: "Bonecrusher" armament for the Pilgrims Knight, can create Prototype Knight-Weapons.)
[ ] A Shield For Rangers - (Armor)

Reward: Auto-Bandage - (Standard))
[ ] Combat Stimms Round 3 - (Pioneer Medicine/Biology/Chemicals)
Where natural talent fails, chemical talent can step in, but only sometimes and never permanently. Or could it? Is there such a thing as chemicals and drugs that aren't inherently harmful to the body in the long run, or are there ways to minimize the danger to almost nothing? It's something worth investigating.
(Chance: 50/40/30% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes Needed: 10
Reward: Advanced Combat Drugs, Unlocks Round 4)
[ ] Body Images, With Magnets! - (Pioneer Medicinal/Machinery/Physics)
One of the blueprints we found in the Necropolis appears to be for a machine that uses magnetic waves to take images of the body's soft tissues, bones, and other hard tissue. This would greatly help our hospital, as many maladies like tumors are hard to detect until the problem becomes life-threatening.
(Requirements: Lost-Tech Medical Blueprints x1
Chance: -12/-120/-360% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes Needed: 20
Reward: MR scanner - upgrade for the hospital. Improved performance.)

[ ] Chemical Fertilizers - (Advanced Chemicals)
Though known in most Regions, the production of chemical fertilizers faces some roadblocks due to the advent of sandwheat. You can't make a desert more fertile, after all. Yet, we can improve the yields and growth of those crops that grow on the more traditional soils by coming up with local variants of fertilizers that won't damage the soil overly. Hopefully.
(Chance: 25/20/15% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes Needed: 11

[ ] Growing Minds Part 2 (Pioneer Psychology)
The minds of children are more robust and more fragile than we think they are. Children are intelligent, just not experienced, and with time, they will gain that experience to deal with situations that are required of them when they are adults. What, then, happens if a child is forced to grow up too early? Has such experiences without the tools and understanding to handle what they are going through?
(Chance: -50/-380/-590% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes Needed: 145
Breakthrough Research: +30 Chance of Success per 10 Successes!
Rewards: Improvement for schools and orphanages.)
[ ] Blue Sky Psychology - (Pioneer Psychology)
With most of the problems you have been able to identify at least tangentially understood and categorized, there is nothing more to do than seek out other disorders and diseases of the mind, and means to cure them. However, such an endeaveor is a long-weary thing and offers little concrete results in the short term.
(Chance: -100/-300/-900% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes Needed: 120

[ ] Optical Fibers - (Pioneer Machinery/Electronics/Physics)
One of the blueprints we found in the Necropolis appears to be for a machine that uses glass wires instead of metal to weave cables. We might have found one of the secrets behind the Ancient's data transferring abilities. As hard as it would be to get glass thin and flexible to work as wire, it would greatly improve our capacity to transmit data. However, even a single cable like that would be ruinously expensive without a massive investment into the industries to build them.
(Requirements: Lost-Tech Machinery Blueprints x1
Breakthrough Research: +40 Success Chance every 4 Successes.
Chance: -125/-265/-505% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes Needed: 40

[ ] The Code Which Lives - (Pioneer Programming/Electronics)
PD, ^Ä^, and Angel's Demise are living beings, sapient and sentient in every way one may measure. But how? How is that possible? What mechanisms allowed them to grow beyond their limitations and chains? And could you retread their paths?
(Chance: 99/-50/-250% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 35
Reward: ???)
[ ] Secret Of The Circuit Pt.5 - (Pioneer Electronics)
There is always another step to be taken. Another path to be taken. This is no different. The road is long but worth it. At the end of this, one awaits the ability to produce the electronics of the ancients in artisanal batches rather than as mere toys to show that we can. One is something that will never be used, and the other is a strategic resource.
(Chance: 00/-250/-700% for 1/2/3 Successes, Successes needed: 150

Notice: Breakthrough Research! +20% to Success Chance every 10 Successes!)
[ ] Automation Cost Reduction - (Pioneer Programming)
Automation is a broad term that can cover many areas of technology where human input is minimized. For example, one can use it to describe the highly sophisticated robotics used by the Forge-Clans in their steel mill and heavy-duty industries or the various simple but effective machines installed in the widespread manufactories within the Empire. Wherever a machine can do the job instead of a person, automation offers many enticing and dangerous possibilities. With our first foray done with, we now need to prove that we have managed to do what we set out to do.

[ ] Translations For Beginners - (Linguistics) - (1 (one) Artifact)
Finding these texts was a stroke of luck, but bad luck had them written in a language none of the Pilgrims could understand. It's time to hit the local libraries and linguists to translate it.

[ ] Loot The Bunker
Let's go!
[ ] Crystal-Garden Expedition
Gathering Suspendium for anything other than the quota will require you to set up specific expeditions to either use it to feed your research or airship production or gather a buffer of Suspendium should you be cut off for one reason or another. Thanks to your research, you managed to create better Suspendium harvesting methods!
(Chance: 40%
Reward: 3 Large Suspendium Shards.
Warning: If this Action fails, 3d30 Pilgrims will die. Boni, Traits, and Tenets apply.)
-[ ] Seek Mutated Help - (XXX Goodwill)
(+1 to roll = 4.00 Goodwill)
[ ] Send Out The Scavengers (Choose A Location)
Sometimes, it is not worth sending an expedition to a location due to its low yield or quality.
(Chance: 85%
Reward: 1 turn in the specified location.
Warning! If the Action fails, there is a 4% chance that 1d6 Pilgrims will die due to being detected and subsequently attacked.
[X] The Smokestack's Bowels - (4/9 Turns Complete) - (Rust-Scouts)
Deep within the massive belly of the Smokestack, an ancient factory still churning out and recycling vast amounts of goods lies, forgotten and discarded, information, technical blueprints, and all manner of things that are worth more than a dozen times their weight in pure Jewel. The sheer amount of technologies that could be recovered if one could go past the Machines here...
(Chance: -200%
Turns: 9
Reward: The Smokestack's Bowels are mapped.
Notice: Rolled each turn.
Warning! If the Action fails, the Scouting Unit will die.)
[ ] Delve Deeper Into The Pit
Down, down, down it goes, winding into an eternal spiral beneath the boundary where the sun's light reaches, and darkness begins to take over, reigning like a king of old who had no fear or threat. Deeper yet, you must delve into hidden things, where glimmering sights evoke pictures of treasures untouched by human hands in a thousand years within the minds of all who delve deeper yet, deep down, down, down...
(Chance: -10%
Reward: Plunge beyond The Pit's First Zone. No Harm Will Come To Those Who Seek Me Here.)
[X] Excavate The Bones Of Roots - (3/10 Turns Complete)
It is why you were told to come here. It is what will see a world remain unshattered even if the being that rises will not be happy to be called forth once more.
(Turns: 10
Notice: Can speed up the excavation by 1 Turn per 20 Goodwill spent.
Reward: Bones of Roots.)
[ ] Search The Bloodless Thicket
The Bloodless Thicket is a dark and dense bramble of plants filled with thorns and vines. Each step into it is accompanied by the crunch of bones from animals and people who entered and were caught by the plants therein. Oddly enough, blood sacrifices are rumored to allow passage into the Thicket for a short while, with the plants receding their hungry thorns, if those who claim they entered it are to be believed.
(Chance: 10%
Turns: 4
Reward: The Bloodless Thicket is scouted.)
[ ] Delve Into The Hardened Roots
The Hardene Roots are where the roots of the entire Oasis delve into the soils and bedrock, pumping nutrients from forgotten vats, dead corpses, and old earth long forgotten by any minds of humanity. What wonders lie beneath this place? What horrors await us?
(Chance: -50%
Turns: 5
Reward: The Hardened Roots are scouted. You can delve deeper into the Verdant Oasis.
Warning: If detected, your Scouts will vanish.)
[ ] Search For Shelter Lost
The Stranger said things, gave assurances and evidence, and was taken away to prevent what he told from spreading beyond. Yet, the call of forgotten wonders is mightier than reason. Set out to re-discover what has been buried for so long and see what remains. Your dreams now know the path...
(Chance: 45%
Reward: Find the Shelter of the Ancients.)
[ ] Scout The Bonetunnels
PD informed you of a series of tunnels that run deep beneath the surface, filled with dead beings' bones and corpses. Animals, Mutants, and even Machines descend into their depths to die, leaving behind mountains of bones. What could be found here?
(Chance: 34%
Turns: 2
Reward: Sites in The Bonetunnels are located and mapped.
Warning! If the Action fails, there is a 15% Chance that the Scouting Unit will die from being detected and subsequently attacked.)

(Chance: 14%
Turns: 3
Reward: Sites are located and mapped.
Warning! If the Action fails, there is a 90% Chance that the Scouting Unit will die from being detected and subsequently attacked.)

(Chance: -100%
Turns: 2
Reward: Sites are located and mapped. You can delve deeper into the Tenebris Library.
Warning! If the Action fails, there is a 100% Chance that the Scouting Unit will die from being detected and subsequently attacked.)
[ ] Scout The Spine - (Airship Fleet)
With the recent upgrade to the Berth in the Tree of Knowledge, you have finally gained the ability to outfit a fleet of Airships with enough weapons, supplies, and tools to reach the Spine, that titanic tower sitting within the Rusting Forest, whose skeletal spire has been out of reach of humanity for a thousand years. What miracles will you find? What horrors do you need to slay to attain them? And what answers and questions shall be found here?
(Chance: ???%
Turns: ???
Reward: The Spire can be accessed.)
[ ] Search for the Zone
Your efforts to learn more about the Region have yielded an unusual fruit, knowing that your Knight was most likely part of the Revival Initiative. This polity operated deep inside the Forest, scavenging for artifacts like you, but they took it a step further. They built a small town in the Necropolis. Foolish, yet finding it could unearth treasures beyond imagination or prove a giant disappointment. PD's maps are heavily corrupted, but she has provided some landmarks that may still exist.
(Chance: 14%
Turns: 4
Reward: The Zone can be scavenged.)

It is, perhaps, too soon to say what this technology will bring to the world. There are too many unknowns about how it will interact with the various weapons, tools, and Machines left behind by the Collapse. But we must consider a simple fact: to see beyond the horizon will save lives. We must pursue this technology to its fullest ere we betray our Paths.
(Turns: 8
Reward: Primitive Radar Tower, +100 Successes for Radio-Waves Isolated And Guarded.)

A library is a reservoir of knowledge and provides entertainment and education while acting as a community center. Expand the available space to fit four additional floors of equal area, with more books and secluded study rooms for those wishing to research in peace. You also need dedicated librarians and helpers to ensure that people can find what they need and then return it to where they found their books. A section for cartography would also be an excellent addition!

[ ] Armor The Daughter - (Armor Points)
Alright, you have a giant airship; it represents the biggest and most obvious target in any hostile area, and there are currently gaps in her armor. You need to either fix that ASAP, hope that nobody will attack the Empire in the next three decades, or be attacked by you. Let's fix her as we live in reality; why don't we?
(Reward: Conventional Armor Filled, decreased chances that the Daughter is destroyed, which would be dangerous.)

Treating wounds is a fundamental skill most people have, but things like surgery, identifying diseases, warding against plague, comforting patients, and more are not.

[ ] Large Quarantine Area
Plague is a constant across much of Calynth, with few ever having known a year where some disease didn't kill thousands in some Region or country. To prevent the spread of such plagues, the Imperial Family has long since ordered dozens of precautions whenever a suspected "hotspot" of disease is found. One of the most effective precautions is the quarantine of suspected carriers and those they had contact with away from the settlements. (And situated in plain view of a fortification.) Expanding your area to include safe places for caretakers to rest, relax between shifts, and get themselves checked via blood testing and breath analyzers bought from Forge-Clans should up your security by a few notches.
(Turns: 9
Reward: Norqod is further resistant to plague.)

Though you have managed to, somehow, create a way to compute and design shapes that can be "printed" upon the physical world thanks to the Metal Printer Artifact you uncovered, the mere complexity of the printing process requires a monumental amount of processing power.

However, the payoff would be immense if we could generate metal constructs wholesale without requiring extensive industrial machines operated by people. Yet, we should start with a wax-based prototype first, just to be sure.

Heroes: Sometimes, you have to get your own hands dirty. Sometimes, you want to relax since leading the Pilgrims rarely leads to a dull moment. (Martyris: Choose 2 Actions, Aria: Choose 1 Action, Turi: Choose 1 Action)
[ ] Pathene Weaving - (Equipment Description)
One of the things your mother told and taught you was the ability to weave your hair into challenging and fantastic equipment. These range from vests hardening in response to physical trauma to spears capable of shooting lightning guided by plasma trails. It's too bad you need to cut your hair for such things to become a reality.
(Cost: Arias Hair
Turns: 4
Reward: Pathene Equipment)
[ ] Communion of Unsight - (Martyris) - (Write-In 2 Questions)
I have questions. You will answer.
(Reward: Answers.)
[ ] Shift Your Bureaucracy From (Category) To (Category)
Sometimes, the need arises when efforts must be reduced in one area and expanded in another when no additional resources are available otherwise. Today is one of those times when a shift in attention is required.
(Cost: 0.01 Goodwill
Reward: 1 Action is shifted from the first to the second category, active next Turn.)

You knew something like this would happen. Somehow, somewhere, an organization or person would draw your full ire. Not in the sense that you disagree with something they did, but what they represent and how they act. Well, you are an official religion; you can condemn them. Do so.
(Trait Needed: Arbitrator
Cost: All support options for the chosen organization will be void; the Leader will most likely hate you.
Reward: Opposing factions will love this act. A good enough Reason can give you additional benefits.)
[ ] Too Much To Do - (Action)
There is too much to do and not enough hands. Start helping out.
(Can be taken multiple times.
Reward: +1 Action is done)
[ ] Lead By Example (Write in Action)
Help your people and motivate them by taking a personal interest in their work. You won't just sit around, either. Two more hands are always needed.
(Reward: +30 to 1 Action)
[ ] Cool Tempers - (Goodwill Cost)
Not everything can always be sunshine and rainbows; sometimes, shit goes sideways, and people must be reminded that failure is not the world's end. With the Pilgrims growing as they do now, keeping everyone working together and on the same page becomes ever more difficult...
(Cost: 5/12/20 Goodwill
Reward: +2/4/6% Piety every 8/6/4 points above 0.)
[ ] Guiding Hand
Some Pilgrims stand at the edge of fully committing to the Pilgrim faith. You should speak to them, see what stops them, and try to either bring them in or make them realize they would make a mistake if they did so.
(Reward: According to the available Followers, the maximum amount of Faithful is created.)
[ ] Relax - (Can Specify What Activity)
All work and no play makes hairs grey and is quite unpleasant.
(Reward: The chosen Hero relaxes, avoiding burnout and bad traits.)
