I am still surprised with Silvia's lack of siblings, truly the blessing of archeotech birthcontrol

So... This is a thing.
Wasn't Silvia rendered infertile after the assassination attempt on the Pilgrims so early in the quest?
As for Markus and Silvia Jr's rate of progression I attribute it to Lord Crinkle doing the heavy lifting as the royal cockblock. If not for him I'd be guessing they'd be rushing the wedding date by now.

Error Checking:
6641+110 = 6751. Not sure where the extra 46 members came from.
Unless this is where it's from? Should be 279/290 Followers/Members based on the usual turn gain.
I think you forgot to remove the 0.
16 Mediums to a Large, so it should be 1 Large and 4 Shards going off the math.
1 action should be locked to Scattershot.
Should be reduced to 36 successes due to Co-Operation.
We completed this with the last Co-Operation.
Our Doctor finished training, so this should be unchecked and reset to 0.

Presumably that should be Raising. Or maybe they are shocking the new unit as training?
We could use a donation Action with this. The current Cardinal takes his duties seriously and I think they did help out with us sending relief effort to that other Region that got hit by an earthquake.
Might be something to look into.
2 Books to boost Suspendium research, but-
I would also like to get this one into the Library. Last time we researched this book we got some invisi-text.
Hmm, another project for the Culture District.
Tempted to make another military unit and send them to Broken Crossroads. The ? on their Guarding Our People project is problematic.

Yeah, you got a bunch of folk due to inter-Region turmoil.
Also fixed the things you pointed out, thank you. :>
Hah, nope, sorry to disappoint. They are Raising them, not Tasing.
We should dig up one of the Line Ships and send that instead. We do have 24 of those and they would send one hell of a message.

Choose 1 Action only.
I think we should send one we already have, and we can refloat another one later.
We could do that as well. I just wasn't sure if it was locked into doing anything.
I assume you are starting the Flagship construction immediately?

1. It's not doing anything, just occupying a berth space.
2. Yes, might as well get started now.

Another error. You forgot to subtract the x15 spent for the Electronics Theory.

Both to boost Suspendium research? The third slot is currently filled with "Eternium" +50 to Pioneer Medicine/Chemicals/Biology/Psychology.
Which only boosts mortar research during this Turn. Still curious what happens if we put "Holy Text of the Tiny Snake God" into the library, but its not like that would boost any of the current projects either.
Hmm, the Herbalist slot during this Turn is already taken. I assume the Merchants already help her automatically. (And I just noticed the Faith to the People Action. Neat.) Maybe we could use a few Caravaners to move the relief goods?
Why this project? Fortification for the other Pilgrim Chapters? At least that's what it sounds like for static mortars. Gasses Long Forgotten and the sleep grenades might be more useful for gang wars, though.
Oh, and this new Research Project:
Doesn't this imply there is a giant plasma brain in the Machinery Cavern? One that we might be able to talk with?

Yes, but it is long since decayed and pretty much dead, if it was ever "alive" to begin with.

- He/Him
Hence, 'to open slots.' And no, it's Advanced Chemicals, so Eternium doesn't apply here.
Well, we already have our standard mortars to do the job there. My main intent is to pair it up with the power armor and coilgun projects all finished this turn, so that we can gift all the new schematics to the military for Goodwill and give them a general boost.
@HeroCooky Would the mortar and power armor research projects produce stuff that non-Forge Clans in the Empire can produce, like our coilguns?
Or would we need some form of project to simplify stuff so people without our Artisanal Quarters or Forge Clan level Electronics Manufacture can make the stuff?
Presumably, the army would want massive amounts of both and the example of power armor in use we know about are the Rabbitaurs, which are a special case due to being royal guards

Yep, that is part of your theology when researching things; if people cannot build them then you aren't done researching.

Basically, if it's not mass production-feasible level, it'll say so in the project description. At least, that's the sense I've gotten.

with how the Mutated pop up even in the one city they are not allowed in, as an example, I wonder if everyone on the planet is a Mutated.
cognitive bias is a thing. and a loss of history and culture as well. because if this is not futur Earth, humanity might of adapted itself to life on an alien world with an alien sun and biome. And I am sure inherited genemods could still undergo mutation, evolution, and degradation over thousands of years.
(I eas a little too distracted to read some of the info post, so I don't know if I am getting something very wrong here.)

They are. The difference is in if those mutations are active, noticeably, hidden, or dormant. Some Mutated are barely recognizable as humanoids, some are more weird mutants, others straight from fantasy and culture like satyrs (like Selene/Silvia Jr.) or lamias, while others have their mutations internal (hyper-active livers, multiple hearts, better healing, etc.) or dormant, waiting for the next generation.

was this something the questers asked before or theorized? as I might of missed it while working on stuff.
but I am glad I realized it in the end.
HeroCooky
Unverified Monstergirl
It was something you learned about (except the dormant mutations) way back, halfway through the first third of the Quest. The rest has been pieced together by the Questers.
Yeah, I considered them when I'm creating characters for my omakes.
For example, Wiljem and Willow are twins, but only Wiljem got any mutations.
Tahmid's mutation is actually among the weakest he could have. Unless Cooky rejects the idea, one of his ancestors was a full on shapeshifter.
And their adopted son Laz'ro is an innate swimmer becuase his family was full of fish/amphibian mutations.

Considering some Mutated are just 'H.R. Geiger's Wettest Nightmare,' a shapeshifter isn't that far from what organizations like InSec have at their disposal.
