This seems dangerous politically and biologically - even a nuisance bioweapon is still taking things up to a new level of criminal unpleasantness, which people will be shocked and appalled by, and what if a nuisance bioweapon mutates into something really dangerous?
Also, people will have lives ruined and will be killed even by nuisance infections - just by being the straw that broke their back. I feel this is crossing the line morally.
Maybe water is too cheap to transport like that profitably? While transport by starship in Star Wars seems to be cheap, it would still cost something.
I kinda like this, but that is my pro-CIS bias speaking.

i wish that the cis didnt get fucked to be evil by the sith. and the tv show.
Go reread the Gods and Monsters Arc, Ciaran states that after seeing Wesker's creations that bioweapons are 'too messy' to be used by her organisation. Not to mention the Clone Commandos wiped any data that could be used to manufacture them and then we had to Base Delta Zero the planet due to a sentient body possessing plague was there.
It's actually surprising how many of the CIS' complaints are actually true.
Time for another omake count! Note that, with the Chu'unthor now online and our new Oracle 'Grand Fleet' coming up in 'Results Pt. 2', we need to plan for at least one and probably two additional actions next turn. Since the cap this turn was 42, that means next turn's cap would be at 46.
Over the last thirty pages, we've added eleven more omakes, giving us a total of 16 omake bonuses toward next turn's actions.
Also note that we only spent 38 (out of 42) omake bonuses this past turn -- neither the Foundry Assault nor our 'Personal Attention' actions required omake bonuses. So that gives us +4 to the omake count for Turn 28, which means we're starting out at 5.

She's still functional and can still move last we heard, just that she isn't operating at full capacity, due to her refusing to go to our medical company for maintenance.

Guess an action for smoothing some of that may be too much for the actual importance of Darra as things stand. should that be in the autorithy of omakes or maybe something can change if Ferrus Olin joins our cause?
I mean. its kind of a loose end by this point, and she not working at 100% ...well she's one gregarious Jedi and should hang around Anakin's orbit of friendships when he's in the temple since she's...you know. not dead. Seem like there's some plot potential there.

Aha. indeed. I could try my hand at whipping up something, though less refined than the stablished omake monsters here, with our glorious QM's blessing and some more details about Darra's general situation.

I'd be interested in what you have in mind. What do you wanna know?
Apropos of nothing, I noticed something that @Dr. Snark had said about our Wookie Warrior cap:
Incidentally, @Dr. Snark, would it be possible to get a similar effect (defend Kashyyyk, remove the cap) via base upgrades? I was thinking something similar to our Kiln defenses -- with an early warning detection system and large-scale 'System Defenses'. We might also station a squadron or two for rapid response to incursion. (...Now that I think about it, those would also be useful for our Taris base as well).
Also apropos of nothing, did anyone notice our new items in The Vault:
Implicitly, if we resolve the Trandoshan raid issue, that cap will be removed. Fortunately, there's an action for that:
I'm pretty sure it's not a major priority, but it's something to consider for future Martial actions.

What I also liked in some moments people outside Abyss Watchers and Ciarans influence managed to achieve greatness, like Satine: all Ciaran did was got her attention at something and she and CNS herself did the rest. Call her puppet, but she's anything but (manipulated, lead, influenced, but never truly controlled).
Partially want an omake where this event is examined from Satines perspective, not Ciarans, that be interesting

It would cost something, naturally, but even in real life it's expensive enough to be worth transporting by truck. On planets where water creation is noted to be a vital job, in other words planets where water is in high demand and low in supply? It'll definitely be worth it, especially if we get big enough water transportation ships to take advantage of economy of scale.
I'm not advocating for bioweapons, I'm advocating for bioinconveniences.

Well it's been a couple of years since that whole thing. So really like. What she's done since then or whats her standing in the order and the republic. Does she hang around the other ex-padawans a lot?
Oh and if you'd have to describe her current "voice! How would you do it? I'm guiding myself by the wiki so the mental image of darra might not be how you had her in mind? Just to make sure to get her tone down correctly.
was thinking on starting on a recap and her thoughts about the living contradictio that ie Ciaran.

That is in fact the perfect bioweapon.
A wounded (or in this case sick) man ties down more of the enemy than a dead man.
So yes, you are advocating bioweapons.

Right, housekeeping time:
I love how Rip's fratboy antics are now suddenly a viable training method. Canon, +10.
...I can respect that. Blazing Saddles was a great movie.
Hmm...Yeah, I don't see why not, especially given the CNS military action this turn.
Well at first she was basically doing her damnedest to try and testify against Ciaran right after the Hutt fiasco, but as the years went on it's gone down to a simmering boil, especially after the Caamas Ceasefire. As for her position in the Order...it's a bit complicated. Due to her cybernetics being only partially functional and slowing her down she's not really the type of person capable of really fighting or doing very strenuous work anymore, but she's got too much sympathy to just let go. So...she's been kicked upstairs to a more administrative position.
As for her "voice..." that's a bit more complicated. She's much more prone to dark, bitter humor about her current situation, and has become far more cynical in general after everything that's happened. The Clone Wars kicking off really haven't helped either as she gets fairly constant news from her old friends about what's going on in the galaxy as they're out fighting or negotiating or whatever it is, and more often than not it's not positive news to put it mildly.
Honestly all things considered she's trying to figure out what she's going to do in the future. She had to have survived for a reason, right? Isn't that how the Force works? "In mysterious ways" and all that?

Darra can go fuck herself. We don't help people who go around calling us a criminal and generally disparaging our name.

i mean, we kinda ARE a criminal. also a terrorist? or against the state, what with us helping the cis.

Just because she's right doesn't mean we should be happy that she's calling us all these mean things, especially in public.
Oh come on,
I really doubt that Ciaran would be that mean and petty. She has been called worst by nicer people. Also, Darra is absolutely right about Ciaran being a criminal mastermind. I think Ciaran would respect that.

I mean, at least ask Anakin to pass on one care package. Some fruit, maybe a good book?
