Turn 8
Ankloks are sick of spirit shit and would rather make an attempt at contacting the Sun, or at least do what they can to prepare for it. Otherwise they want to wipe out the Orks so the other breed can start focusing on the Sun as they should.
Mosok are torn between spying on the Orks, monitoring the spirits, or taking advantage of the new Shipyard. While Abalone is not quite their capital city its an obvious step in the right direction and they are pleased.
Pterok have a lot to research, but even they are frequently occupied summoning elementals. They will be a lot happier if Sperimin is built.
Raptok have a lot to build, although they are satisfied with how much focus there has been on constructing cities and workshops.
Ork Progress roll: 74 Development has slowed slightly but still every month hundreds of thousands of Orks get weapons. A new factory workshop of a much different type is under construction. Its still early to be sure but we think it may produce vehicles when finished, however that should take the rest of the year (turn 10).
You have 8 generic AP
2x Free Successes applied to Draconic Legions.
1x Free Success applied to any one Golem Project.
3 x Exotic Stockpiles (Master Grade)
Anklok (1 AP): Zealot priests and barbaric warriors who deal with fire. Anklok inspire and lead, whether troops or religious gatherings. The Anklok elders are very concerned about being deprived of their glorious god. They are content that the future of the Dragon King race is safe behind mighty fortress walls. They are wondering what the glowing thing up in the sky is if the Sun is in another dimension. Many Anklok that are not officially soldiers have informally taken up patrol routes along the wall. Anklok are becoming concerned about the obvious efforts of Orks to equip themselves. They are just glad our workshops are producing higher quality.
[ ] Glory to the Most High!: Regular worship of the Sun has been restored and morale of the Dragon Kings has mostly neutralized. Our priests say that during their most fervent prayers they hear the glimmer of a response. The Anklok Elders want permission to take advantage of the Consecrated Geomancy of the city and enact a far more elaborate ritual with the most zealous priests inspiring the most fervent followers over grand sacrifices to call out to the Sun. We need to know he is still there. AP needed: 2. DC: 80. Success needed 1. Reward: Increase in Morale. Response from the Sun unlocks further actions. (Yes you need to commit 2 AP even though only one success is needed. Praying to a god enough to get a response across dimensional boundaries is hard.)
[ ] Temple improvements: Why shouldn't we get to use these tools to enhance the temple. We can carve prayers into every block, add sacred oils and incense and other things to improve the temple further than it is even now. AP Needed 1. DC 35. AP needed 3. Reward: Pyramid of the Sun is shined up really pretty. Reduces difficulty on Glory to the Most High.
[ ] Hlass: Well we know where to build cities and the Capital for our Breed is needed. Let's build it. This project includes the manse allowing all the support features the capital has. It will be especially difficult due to the nearness of Orks and the distance from our supply area. AP needed 2. DC: 40. Success Needed 5. Reward: Gain Hlass, Anklok Capital. Space for 4 million, +1 Anklok Action, Orichalcum Refinery and ???.
[ ] Northern Line: Build a line of forts to the North of Ork territory. Pick spots that are either really defensible or that will block the Orks from marching on planned New Rathess. Increases the risk of starting a confrontation with the orks by 5% in exchange for simplifying construction of New Rathess and acting as a defensive line for that city. AP Needed 1. DC 45. AP needed 3. Reward: Northern Defensive Line.
[ ] Southern Line: Build a line of forts to the south of Ork territory. Pick spots that are either really defensible or that will block the Orks from marching on planned Hlass. Increases the risk of starting a confrontation with the orks by 5% in exchange for simplifying construction of Hlass and acting as a defensive line for that city. AP Needed 1. DC 45. AP needed 3. Reward: Southern Defensive Line.
[ ] Chosen of the [Insert Name here]: The Anklok guide others through the rites and rituals that prompt a god to choose a Dragon King and how to find a compatible god to try to prompt. Chosen add the power and ability of the Spirit to the Dragon King making a superior being as long as the spirit decides to work with them. AP Needed: 1. DC: 45. Success needed: 10. Reward: You gain enough chosen to gain a generic AP. [You may repeat this project but the DC goes up each time though]
[ ] Draconic Legions: A large mustering to bring our forces up to 10 Legions by raising 8 and outfitting to Standard levels. AP Needed 1 (would be more but Training Grounds and Armory lab cover it), DC: 40. Success Needed 2/18. Reward: Gain 8 Legions.
[ ] Advanced Training Grounds: Dream tutors, golem dummies, "dueling" torcs that prevent damage from potentially killing, emerald orchids to provide enhance healing, elementally bound rooms for "Adverse environment training". We can push training even further now that better tools have been made available. AP Needed 3. DC 50. AP needed 9. Reward: Advanced Training Ground built. Faster training possible, elite troop quality training unlocked.
Mosok (1 AP): Amphibious creatures who excel in deception. Martial Arts, Trade, Commerce, sailing, theft, blackmail, sabotage, infiltration, assassination, anything with water. Some call them devious and selfish. They just say they are cunning and Ambitious. They are eager to get to work proving their superiority to this new race.
[ ] Luthe: Well we know where to build cities and the Capital for our Breed is needed. Let's build it. This project includes the manse allowing all the support features the capital has. It will be especially difficult due to being underwater and the distance from our supply area. AP needed 2. DC: 40. Success Needed 5. Reward: Gain Luthe, Mosok Capital. Space for 4 million, +1 Mosok Action, Tube Tunnel Nexus (much reduces the effort of connecting all cities and manses to a tube network and ???.
[ ] Spirits are always with you!!: We honestly aren't even sure WHO was exiled with us. Enemies of the Primordials may match up heavily with our allies, but there may be some that aren't or who are regretful now that the banishment has happened. First step to dealing with this spirit issue is figuring out who is here. If nothing else spirits are more likely to police themselves if you can find someone reliable and powerful enough to enforce rules. AP Needed 1. DC 40. AP needed 1. Reward: Learn some notable names, some issues on the spirit side, and if anything sticks out.
[ ] Or catch an Ork Napping: They won't be here long, its probably not worth learning that much from them. Lets just take things that would potentially be useful. We won't be much more obvious than the infiltration mission but the stolen goods and eaten Greenskins will be more useful than information. This action wis even more useful now that you know more about them. AP needed 1. DC: 30/50. Success Needed 1. Reward: Gain 3 extra generic AP next turn for basic success weakening Greenskins. Avoid notice with the greater success.
[ ] Da Plan part II: Specifically send orks to locate and spy on nobs or the so far theoretical Warboss and gain information about why the Orks are currently industrializing. AP Needed 1. DC: 30/50. Success Needed 1. Push infiltrators and spies further into Ork territory.
[ ] Spy Fleet: Considering how small it is, most would be shocked at how expensive each of these vessels are. Until they realize they are submersibles, and that these subs are equipped with even further stealth magic as well as acting as mobile safehouses and deployment points for Mosok spy actions. AP Needed 1. DC 30. AP needed 3. Reward: Sub fleet built to support spying. Auto applies "Aid the Croc-Men" effects every turn.
[ ] Fishin' Fleet: Mosok start out with a fleet of ships going fishing and returning to selling at various crystal cities. No harm in looking around while there, right? Certain cities have competitive advantages, either materials are more easily available or the ones who are best at making it happen to live there. Over time we arrange deals encouraging this and trading the goods to other cities that need it most, and eventually the fishing boats spend very little time fishing, for fish at least. AP needed 1. DC: 30. Success Needed 10. Reward: Inter-city trade established. Gain 1 extra generic AP.
[ ] Logistic Fleet: Ships far better suited for moving troops, workers, supplies and building materials are built in massive quantities, easing the process of construction or military action across the ocean. AP Needed 1. DC 35. AP needed 3. Reward: Logistic Fleet built, reduced difficulties on overseas military deployment or construction projects.
[ ] Train martial artists: The mosok concentrate on teaching the arts to new pupils. AP needed 1. DC: 35. Success Needed 0/2. Reward: Back up to 100 Martial Artists. Reduce Dojo difficulty to normal.
[ ] Dojos: Simple facilities made to concentrate the senses and focus on training. Certain dojos dedicated to certain martial arts will have imagery and special tools to aid training those Arts. Aid in the development of Martial Artists, including training new ones and developing new arts. Gain one free success in related projects every turn, new projects to train far more Martial Artists at once are possible. AP Needed 1. DC: 40. Success Needed 1/3. Reward: Dojos built.
Pterok (1 AP): Flying bureaucrats. Pterok excel in scholarly pursuits, like research in terms of looking up information in a library (or adding info to a library) rather than making a new piece of tech. They are amazing scribes and academics, having knowledge of history, mathematics, geology, geomancy, alchemy, astrology and many other thaumaturgical arts. The also deal with spirits the most, including the native ability many have to summon elementals even without sorcery. They can engage in crafting but focus on fine details like scribing tiny runes on an artifact more than building a temple manse. Between this new world and what they have learned from the Orks there is way too much research to do.
[ ] Tzali: Well we know where to build cities and the Capital for our Breed is needed. Let's build it. This project includes the manse allowing all the support features the capital has. It will be especially difficult due to the high mountains supplies must be brought up and the distance from our supply area. AP needed 2. DC: 40. Success Needed 5. Reward: Gain Tzali, Pterok Capital. Space for 4 million, +1 Pterok Action, Scriptorium (Allows mass production of Prayer Strips and higher quality prayer strips, ???).
[ ] Aid the Croc-Men: Potions, Geomantic blessings, talismans. You can do a lot to aid the Mosok in not being detected so you should. AP needed 1. DC: 30. Success Needed 1. Reward: Ork Napping or Da Plan based actions done this turn have base DC reduced by 5 and unnoticed DC reduced by 15.
[ ] Aid the Priests: Proper study of sacred Geometries may let us improve the chance of success on the "Glory to the Most High" ritual: AP Needed 1. DC 30. AP needed 1. Reward: Reduce difficulty of "Glory to the Most High"
[ ] What is that?: A giant ball of light in the sky, we have some concerns. AP needed 1. DC: 50. Success Needed 1. Reward: Confirm that that is indeed not the Daystar Dirigible Fortress.
[ ] What are those?: Stars are supposed to be representations of celestial gods whose interactions are mapped to the heavens. What in the Ignis Divine are those? AP needed 1. DC: 60. Success Needed 1. Reward: What are stars?
[ ] Did the sky fall?: Creation had a giant dome over it and air never got very thin even if you flew a thousand kilometers straight up. We have already proven that is not the case here so more investigation is required. AP needed 1. DC: 40. Success Needed 1. Reward: What is the deal with the sky.
[ ] Elemental Support: Dragon Kings in general and Pteroks in particular are adept at summoning elements which both provide general aid and have particular skills and special powers that Dragon Kings may not. Particularly with the elemental complex that aids in summoning elementals for longer or with greater power. May be taken more than once. AP needed 1. DC: 30. Success Needed 1. Reward: For every success I assign three AP dice to whatever project seems to need it the most, as long as elementals could help.
[ ] Unity of Elemental Advantage: In this action the focus is on longer duration bindings instead of general use summonings. This means the advantage elementals provide is less targeted be we may gain more total use from our elemental support per effort of summoning in the end. AP needed 1. DC: 40. Success Needed 1. Reward: For every success I assign two AP dice to whatever project seems to need it the most, as long as elementals could help to this turn AND next turn.
[ ] Supremacy of Elemental Advantage: This this project we focus on either the most powerful or most specifically chosen Elementals for a given task. When this project is chosen you must choose another project being supported by AP this turn that it is targeting. May not target things inappropriate for elementals like research, may not apply to projects over DC of 50. 1 AP DC: 40. Success Needed 1. Reward: Targeted Project gets two successes applied.
[ ] Advanced Elemental Complex: Elemental Exoskeletons, elemental scanning rings, intricately designed "comfort" yasal crystals, elementally aspect zones pleasing to the element, elaborately managed systems of hallways to prevent unfriendly elementals from encountering each other. We can make improvements now that better tools are available. AP Needed 3. DC 50. AP needed 9. Reward: Advanced Elemental Complex. Slightly Lowers DC on existing actions, unlocks new uses for elementals like scanning, stockpiling, and larger scale potential actions as exoskeletons allow King and Element to almost become chosen.
[ ] Advanced Administrative Monastery: Winged Messenger Baubles, Audient Brushes, Perfected Calculation Arrays, immobile but longer range echo jewels, and liquid memory fountains. We can improve our ability to communicate, record information and plan large scale projects even further than we currently have now that better tools are available. AP Needed 3. DC 50. AP needed 9. Reward: Advanced Administrative Monastery built. Further reduces the difficulty and successes needed on massive projects.
[ ] Basic Stockpile: Potions enhance healing, senses, reduce pain, reduce the need to sleep, poison enhanced weapons. Garda eggs filled with Ardent Embrace Resin. Enchanted walkaways for protection. Now contains poisons and special supplies to apply fungicide during battle with the ork. Nothing hard if not for needing to provide enough to supply 5000 troops for several days worth of battling. Basic Stockpiles add +2 (+3 for orks) to Might for a segment of a battle. Note that up to four such stockpiles can be consumed per segment of a battle if available. This does not prevent a botch. AP needed 1. DC: 40. Success Needed 1. Reward: Gain 1 Basic Stockpile.
[ ] Prayer-strip Stockpile: Soldiers are handed prayer strips which can be easily activated to burn away and "automatically" pray to a certain spirit on behalf of the user. Normally the effect is minimal but the Pterok Shamans have pre-arranged things with the spirits in this case. They will apply a useful combat blessing to the soldier. Using Prayer-strip stockpiles cause effected rolls to ignore botches. After losses of effected unit is calculated the number of losses is halved. There is no effect to multiple uses of this stockpile in a single battle. AP needed 1. DC: 55. Success Needed 1. Reward: Gain 1 Prayer-strip Stockpile.
[ ] Color Thaumaturgy: Inside the empowering effect of the Waaagh! items covered in predominately one bright color gain certain attributes, because apparently the Orks believe they do. Honestly we have worked with sketchier bases for mystic arts before. Although our version will probably demand paint and painting methods a bit more involved than the Orks and have some duration rather than simply being true as long as Orks are nearby. Of course being the proper color means that they will also be true when orks are nearby. AP needed 1. DC: 45 Success Needed 1. Reward: Your thaumaturgists may utilize the science and art of color magic.
[ ] Orks are Loud!: Orks are so loud and smelly that it can be a bit distracting for the keen senses of the Dragon king. Develop some tool or potion or something to help you keep from being deafened while still being able to use your senses in the battle: Develop ork oriented sensory overload Procedures. AP needed 1. DC: 25. Success needed 1. Reward: Minor resistance to a common Ork maneuver.
[ ] Fighting Behemoths: Apparently this world has massive creatures able to fight armies on their own. During the Primordial War we tended to lean on Lunar Exalted taking massive forms for opposing enemy Behemoths. Without these allies we will have to learn to fight massive monsters on our own. We need to hit the books and do the maths, luckily Minnow Sky has a plan he calls Project: Titan. AP Needed 2. DC 40. AP needed 10. Reward: Can build Prototype Warstrider.
[ ] Research Assistants: Build a batch of dedicated golems for aiding our researchers. Essentially every researcher would get a crystal golem assistant that would remember everything they did, take notes, and allow people to interact with the their notes. Plus the scientist can sacrifice the golem in the same of Science! if anything goes awry. AP Needed 1. DC 35. AP needed 3. Reward: Research Golems built. Research DCs are lowered by 5.
[ ] Thaumaturgical Work Shop: This work shop combines potions labs, enchanting workshops and geomantically aligned rooms to allow mass production of Basic Stockpiles and potentially more powerful stockpiles are made possible. You gain a single free success every turn for Basic Stockpile or similar actions (like "Aid the Croc-Men") as well as enabling mass production of such stockpiles or maybe the creation of more potent stockpiles if appropriate exotic ingredients are found. AP Needed 1. DC 35. AP needed 3. Reward: Thaumaturgical Workshop built.
[ ] Skydock: Specialized workshop for building simple airships and a dock for allowing them to load, unload and be maintained in the city. AP Needed 1. DC 35. AP needed 1/3. Reward: Skydock built
Raptok (1 AP): The most civilized of all Dragon kings. Diplomats and socializers. Best at getting along with other races. City builders and masters of vegetative and crystal technology that is the hallmark of the Dragon King mastery. Inquisitive natures allow them to explore unknown technologies and debate philosophy with aliens. There are still Dragon Kings at heart though, even if they may sip wine and discuss great literary works while polishing and adorning the skulls of their enemies with elaborate crystals to display in a battle shrine. Raptoks are also sized to be the only Dragon King able to comfortably use Human sized tools and workshops. This combined with their social skills and love of technology makes them the most likely to meet other races, and some races may think Raptoks are it when talking about Dragon Kings.
[ ] New Rathess: Well we know where to build cities and the Capital for our Breed is needed. Let's build it. This project includes the manse allowing all the support features the capital has. It will be especially difficult due to the nearness of Orks and the distance from our supply area. AP needed 2. DC: 40. Success Needed 5. Reward: Gain New Rathess, Raptok Capital. Space for 4 million, +1 Raptok Action, Biothaumaturgy labs.
[ ] Sperimin: Now that our capital is finished lets build up the Academy city properly, includes 12 academies around the central library. A city of a million, basic defenses, and a tube tunnel to Merela. AP needed 2. DC: 25. Success needed: 4. Reward. Complete the Academy City Sperimin to discount and unlock research actions.
[ ] Waaagh!tech: While we have no real interest in making and using this technology, a more thorough study may provide insights into our own magitechnology, inspiration for magitech versions of Ork devices, or at least tell us if our armor is strong enough to resist their weapons and vice versa. AP needed 1. DC: ?? Success Needed 1. Reward: May be repeated. Rolling well produces a better result.
[ ] Manse Builder: These will not be elaborate geomantic power-wells driving cities or factory cathedrals. At least not yet. This project gets them capped and twenty hearthstones available for other magitech projects as fast as possible. AP needed 2. DC: 30. Success Needed 3. Reward: Gain 20 hearthstones to power magitech gear.
[ ] New Hearths: Much of our most powerful equipment needs continual power transmitted from Geomantic power-wells like Dragon Nests and Manses via hearthstones. It seems we would be too lucky to have this new world be as rich in Dragon Nests as Creation was and even if it is we will need to build those Manses to channel the geomantic power. So we may want to consider developing alternatives. AP Needed 1. DC 60. Success Needed 2. Reward: Options for modifying some magitech designs to use non-hearthstone based power sources. Further research unlocked.
[ ] Elder Gear: There was some discussion regarding sending Elder Dragon Kings in as agents. We might not be able to mass produce our best gear but making a few dozen sets for our elders might we worth the extra cost in blood sweat and tears to making it happen. Obsidian Sheaths, Crystal Warclubs, Crystal Belts of Adaptation and equivalent Artifacts are made available in a restricted armory for our Elders. AP needed 3. DC: 65. Success Needed 6. (Burning an Elemental Stockpile on this lowers DC to 30 until complete and completes three successes) Reward: If elders forced to fight (say Merela was attacked) they can call on +3 Might as a "unit" or very small groups or individuals can reach +4 Might when they have the prep time to cherry pick preferred gear and attune and train with it properly.
[ ] Primordial Standard: Build gear for our Draconic Legions up the standards of that the troops intended to be the bulk of our Armies fought the Primordial war in. Reinforced Twinning Leaf Breastplates, Crystal Warclubs (Power Swords), Ironwood Grand Goremauls, Crystal belts of Adaptation (ignore environment, no need to breath), Dragonfly Ranging Eyes (basically DBZ Scouters but better), Fire Lances, Crystal Hearthstone Bracers, Healing Orchids, and a variety of customized gear like elemental lenses for Anklok, Essence Thrust Drives for Pteroks, Perfected Greaves for Mosok, and commanders of each Legion get a single Atlas of the Unconquered General. Soldiers often have essence manipulating artifacts like Aegis inset amulets and undergo meridian realigning thaumaturgical surgery to reduce the essence cost of attuning all this gear. AP needed 3. DC: 65. Success Needed 27. (Burning an Elemental Stockpile on this lowers DC to 30 until complete and completes three successes) Reward: One Legion upgraded to Primordial War Standard equipment. + 3 Might.
[ ] Artillery too: Light Implosion Bows mounted on golem drawn ironwood chariots for some degree of mobility. Implosion bows shoot spheres of spatially twisted essence and cause vortices of disintegrating light on impact. This project makes enough Light Implosion Bows to supply mobile artillery support for a single Dragon King Legion. AP needed 2. DC: 50. Success Needed 3. Reward: Add mobile artillery support to Remnant Legion.
[ ] Golem Workforce: Build a bunch of Basalt Golems, called Hands of the Mountain, to move around supplies and act as grunt labor for our city and manse building projects. AP Needed 1. DC 35. AP needed 3. Reward: Golem Workforce built. Difficulty on City and Manse building projects lowered by 5.
[ ] Crystalline Army: Build a Legion of crystal golems armed with spears and crystal needle projection. Their clear nature makes them fairly stealthy for an army size level. Until combat is joined and their essence channels light up glyphs along their limbs. The downside is they can only last about ten days without needing essence users to "refill" them. Good at ambushes and flanking attacks due to stealth and roughly as dangerous as the Remnant Legion was before elder got their act together. Need to be refilled means that these are normally assigned to Legions and tended to by Raptok. AP Needed 1. DC 30. AP needed 3. Reward: Crystal Golems formation.
[ ] Staran Knights: Upgraded and more sophisticated versions of Staran defenders. Despite name and appearance these are ironwood golems, not actually Starans. They are imbedded with Elementals so they can operate independently and naturally produce the fungicide as long as they operate making them especially effective against orks. A group of 10,000 Knights will be lead by four or five DK commanders and is considered an effective match for and equal number of Slugga Boyz. AP Needed 1. DC 35. AP needed 1. Reward: Order of Staran Knights.
[ ] Magitech Workshop: This workshop is focused on producing delicate powered devices that require hearthstones or hopefully a means to bypass hearthstones. Lowers difficulty on "New Hearths" "Artillery too", and follow up projects that are greater yet. Enables raising War engines and artillery as a background part of building Legions rather than needing separate projects (although one that needs more successes per Legion). One of the things that enables first rate military gear and war engines, warstriders, and skyremes as well as producing alternate powersources for them. AP needed 1. DC: 35. Success Needed 3. Reward: Magitech Workshop built.
[ ] Advanced Armory: This project includes the equipment needed to mass produce a higher level of weapons and armor and other equipment they need, it also allows greater levels of work to be done. Second rate gear would require more exotic materials but is possible. This facility provides a three free successes every turn and triples naturally earned successes in terms of building equipment sets for troops as well as enabling mass production projects for militia grade and third rate gear. With access to exotic components or a Jade mine we can mass produce second rate gear. With BOTH Exotic Stockpiles and a Jade or Orichalcum mine we could produce first rate gear at exhaustive efforts. AP Needed 3. DC 50. AP needed 9. Reward: Advanced Armory Workshop built.
[Exotic Stockpiles represent exotic components of higher quality then can be mass produced, currently. Thus they are a limited resource but this stockpile represents enough for a project calling upon them.]
[ ] Geomantic Workshop: Improves your workshops capacity to support geomantic developments and city building with thaumaturgical mass construction. When almost every tool the construction workers use is at least a talisman if not a full blown artifact we can probably achieve something amazing. AP Needed 3. DC 50. AP needed 9. Reward: Geomantic Workshop built. Improves rate of building cities and manses. Allows more impressive potential projects.
[ ] Advanced Clinics: Wound healing kits filled with jade acupuncture needles (needed to get through Dragon King Scales), entire greenhouses filled with Emerald orchids, and mass production of seven bounties paste, sweet cordial, disease warding talismans and equivalent gear. AP Needed 3. DC 50. AP needed 9. Reward: Advanced Clinics provided. Get Two re-rolls a turn.
[ ] Automatorium: Automata and constructed consciousness isn't our expertise. Plants don't tend to need brains afterall. But we have seen a few clockwork mechanisms in our time. Perhaps we can emulate them. Or at least fake it with more sophisticad use of vegetative and crystal technologies. AP Needed 3. DC 50. AP needed 9. Reward: Automata Workshop built.
[ ] Workshop – Exotic Components: We have jury rigged our way making lesser artifacts through using our powerful Paths and the Fact our blood, scales, teeth and claws are potent enough to count as lesser magical components. To work greater wonders we need more in quantity, quality, and diversity. This workshop sets up Alchemical Gardens for plant produced components, crystal growing labs, and teams that work out deals with spirits and elemental to accept either body parts or blessings as useful components. Note that they are not amazing components, but there will be a lot to fill our workshops and we don't have to literally work our hands bloody making our magical tools now. Exotic component workshop reduces the number of success a mass project like magical armories or manse building take by one per three successes, this only applies if the project needed at least three originally. This workshop does not provide free successes and there are high level artifacts that these components are not equipped to aid. This facility would enable 2nd rate arms, war engines, or golems along with Advanced versions of their workshops. AP Needed 1. DC 35. AP needed 3. Reward: Exotic Component Workshop built.
[ ] Staran Plantation: AP needed 1. DC: 35. Success Needed 3. Reward: Build Staran Plantation
General Action: Actions that you can attempt which are not focused on a given breed need generic AP to use. To confirm, generic AP can also be used on Breed specific actions.
[ ] Resource Expedition: Various Dragon Kings can effectively magic up useful equipment from rocks and trees. But that doesn't mean its not easier if they have higher quality materials to work from. Use what you learned from the Mosok Exploration last season to go on expeditions to various places across Tokat to bring back more useful raw materials, if you are lucky maybe even something with enough potency to allow more powerful artifact creation. AP Needed 1. DC: 20/80. Success Needed 1. Reward: Every base success provide TWO AP next turn, every greater success provides a free AP success that can be applied to a magitech project of at least three total successes, such as "Standard Outfitting or Manse Builder"
[ ] Jade Mine: The Jade Mine needs to be set up to be fully exploited. Setting up this mine enables us to draw out the jade for use in our artifact crafting, any artifact that is applicable has it count as an exotic component. Which means any magitech or manse project that needs at least three success can have one removed thanks to copious jade supplies. This will still benefit and unlock higher level artifact crafting as long as they use jade, some project will not use jade and cannot benefit however 3rd and second rate war gear, war engines and golems will specifically benefit. AP Needed 1. DC 35. AP needed 1/3. Reward: Mine Built.
[ ] Stables: The breeding, training, and caring for our "lesser" kin requires special facilities. Ox-Dragons, River-Dragons, Claw-Striders, Pestletails, Siege Lizards, Razorbeak Dragons, and Tyrant Lizards are all fearsome beasts that are difficult to train and control at the best of times but long practice and the use of Husbandry based Arts and Sciences has enabled us to use these terrible beasts as Mounts and war engines. Building this facility provides a single free success dedicated to setting up mounts and enables either mass projects, research into improved magical training methods, further mount using projects, and setting up standard army recruitment to include equipping with appropriate beasts. AP Needed 1. DC 35. AP needed 3. Reward: Stables built
[ ] Siege Lizards: Not!Stegosaurus herds were sent along with us when we came here. Should we be offended we are considered equal to herd animals in the eyes of Primordials? Either way, Siege Lizards are not very bright and ferociously independent but we have long experience domesticating them. And they are very very tough. We want to train some, armor them, and use firing platforms along their sides that will allow our people to use their spiny plates as cover, effectively mobile bunkers. Most of the artifact work in this project will be used to speed up the ponderous beasts so that our armies are not slowed down tactically or strategically. AP needed 2. DC: 30. Success Needed 2. Reward: Remnant Legion is equipped with a dozen Armored Siege Lizards, enough to meaningfully impact combat.
[ ] Ox-Dragons: Not!Triceratops are normally used as beasts of burden by Dragon Kings. These 12 ton monsters are surprisingly fast over the long haul and dangerously fast on a charge. We plan to take some, train them, armor them up, maybe put magical material filigree into their horns. And mount a warstrider scale Fire Lance on top. AHAHAHAHA!. Fire Lances can empower the tip during a charge, shoot streams of fire at single targets within 250 meters, or throw massive curtains of fire burning everything within a 7 meter wide and 175 meter long area. Now don't get me wrong, there are better weapons we could mount, Implosion bows, Essence cannons for anti-armor work, or larger numbers of smaller weapons for anti-infantry weaponry. But A) a fire lance can do both almost as well as dedicated weaponry and B) When you are riding a monster that will inevitably charge the enemy, a huge magical lance seems appropriate. AP needed 2. DC: 35. Success Needed 3. Reward: Remnant Legion is equipped with a dozen Fire Ox-Dragons, enough to meaningfully impact combat.
[ ] Razor-Beaks: not!Quetzalcoatlus are normally ridden by Pteroks the way humans rode horses. We can equip trained Razor-Beaks with leaf armor and self reloading fuel bolt launchers that the riders can control. The beasts can fly faster and further than Pteroks alone can, if not by a massive amount and the anti-vehicle weapons allow them to be dangerous when opposing any air craft. In situations where there is no enemy air support they can carry large fire bombs and garda eggs or other alchemical grenades (fungicides maybe?) to drop on foes. AP needed 2. DC: 35. Success Needed 3. Reward: Gain Air Force.
