440.M42 - Morale-Boosting Plushies
HeroCooky
Unverified Monstergirl
With the advent of a renewed war against Neon, even if the last one hadn't ever really ceased, on the horizon, the Councils of the Glimmering Federation resolved to plug a hole within their security with not merely the construction of two new flights of the Crux Missile Frigates, but also a focus on the upgrading of the military forces of the Star Child, allowing their soldiers to fight with the best they can provide them without either being unable to equip enough troops to fight nor sending out their people with less than the best.
Already equipped with the best, highly trained, and slowly gaining war-time experience that would aid their military in future conflicts, the Federation soldiers saw minor upgrades to their gear. However, 'minor' was relative here.
Already equipped with Powered Carapace Armor that carried itself, the various armorsmiths and engineers of the Federation improved upon the design to allow the inherent exoskeleton to augment the strength of the wearer by several percentage points for Humans, Ogryns, and Kil'drabi without raising production costs beyond a level that would allow the improvement to be rolled out across its forces.
Likewise, the Heavy Environmental Sealing systems of their armors was improved with a weight reduction, reducing the burden placed upon the soldiers while improving their speed and agility. In addition, several quality-of-life features were implemented to reduce the stress of constant (above 3 days) HES-wear, especially for the notoriously claustrophobic Ogryns.
With more access to Yeeni physiology and decades of reports to back them up, a new set of carapace armors was rolled out for the Yeeni Auxiliaries.
On the weapons front, Hot-Shot Laspistols were made standard for all forces capable of using them; the boost in firepower in these hold-out weapons will surely improve survival rates. Additionally, the Hotshot-Lasguns of the main fighting forces were tweaked to allow for power selectors, enabling a 'Beam' and 'Mag-Dump Melta' mode in addition to the old Single-Shot and Autofire modes. The first enables the soldier to 'walk' the Hotshot-Lasgun over a target instead of lining up new shots at the cost of increased waste heat and energy use. At the same time, the latter ensures that each soldier has access to a last-resort anti-armor weapon already in their hands. In addition, plasma grenades have been re-created and made available for squads, though they are currently too pricy and destructive in general to be used widely or in close quarters.
Last but certainly not least, the Morale-Boosting Plushies given to Ogryn have been reinforced, made tear-resistant, are now easily washable with only the use of a bowl of water large enough to hold the plushy, and were given names to improve the morale-boosting effects for the Ogryns. Reports indicate a 240% increase in our Ogryn's morale as a result.

Sabotage Units will focus on raiding and disrupting the enemy with lighting raids and plundering logistics; Assault Units will punch through the enemy in weak points and sow confusion with overwhelming firepower; Engineering Units will focus on creating fortifications and using turrets, mines, and barricades; Demolition Units will be comprised out of heavy weaponry squads with plenty of explosives, from mines to rockets; and Ogryn Units will be Ogryns armored in heavy metals and armed with shields and Beatin' Sticks led by men and women with spiffy hats that will not be disobeyed. Kil'drabi Units can go into temperature enviroments Humans would require special equipment with ease. Infantry Units consist mainly of boots on the ground, while Mechanized Units are equipped with vehicles that increase mobility and durability at the cost of logistics and all-terrain capability, with Tanks allowing a myriad of armored spearheads or operations to proceed. Light Units are better for Low-Logistic scenarios, while Medium Units rely more on regular shipments yet strike a good balance between supply consumption and effectiveness, with Heavy Units reliant on solid logistics to continue working while also offering an equal force-concentration in return. A War-Pack consists out of 15 Karnivores grouped in Packs of 3 Knights each, alongside the infrastructure/logistics to support and rebuild their Knights.
(Gain: A SAG. These contain [Four Units] chosen from the above choices. Tanks require no Classification.)
[] [Military] [Construct/Refit] A Warp Ship - [Choose a Design]
Ships are produced at these rates: Eight Scouts, Six Destroyers, Three Frigates, and One Light Cruiser per decade.

From what we can tell, thanks to our history, what information we have available, and what the Kil'drabi and the Governor of Droma III tell us, the difference between a prosperous interstellar polity and one naught but ash is the strength of their navy. At the moment, we have the beginning of a nascent Void Fleet, yet purely defending against our enemies is a great way to get ground down into dust over time; we need to be able to bring the fight to them.

[] [Faith] Cathedrals of the Star Child
Sing the Hymns, Toll the Bells, allow the masses to fill hallowed halls and raise their voices in harmonious prayer to the Five-One and One-Five, so that they can elevate themselves through pious prayer and quiet fervor! Let the teeming masses yearn for grand places of worship no longer, but let them be awed by the labors of their hands and the works of their minds.
(Gain: Build one (or several) Cathedrals to the Star Child on every world, bringing the glory and splendor of their presence to billions. Also includes figuring out how they are to look like.)
[] [Faith] Psykana Of The Outside And Unknown
Though we use the Celestial Choirs to bind and tame the powers of the Warp to minimize the risks and dangers inherent in the use of the Psykana, it is folly to believe that we are the only ones who have uncovered ways to utilize the Warp amongst the galaxy, or that there is nothing to be learned from Outsiders. Likewise, though there has been currently only one example, we must also consider what to do with the Psykers of Outsiders to the Federation and how we should go about ensuring that those individuals within our Protectorates or Kin are given over or sent to us instead of being utilized in horrific, immoral, or dangerous ways if they aren't outright killed as was the fate of all Kil'drabi Psykers before they began to send them to us to be taught control or executed should they fail and become a risk to themselves and others without sending their souls to the Great Enemy.

Very nice, very nice indeed.
Time to keep my promise and fuck EoL up!
We don't need Andromedas for hitting a system adjacent to one of our core worlds, right @HeroCooky ?

Hmm. Noted.
EoL is still equal to us after that buildup, huh?
I also note Gathin is orange again, so Neon will probably finish licking their wounds next turn, so we have to do this now

shouldn't we leave more stuff near Neo? They could stab us in the back

Unlikely, we've got fortresses on both of the borders and a few turns of being established there to have a local SDF. That's not something that they can just casually bull through, given how we're seeing how expensive a set of fortresses can be to assault.
That's why I consider taking EoL This turn to be of the utmost importance. We need to dig this knife out of our flank before we're too busy fighting for our lives. The Dream is also that it'll be worth 3 Void Infrastructure so we can field Heavy Cruisers, but the priority is removing this place from being an escalating threat.

We definitely want another Andromeda or two, having slack in our ability quickly (and consistently) ferry ships across our polity is important, but it can wait until we've taken the pirate base and repurposed it.
10th Anniversary react is also up if people want to add one to the map post. I've already done the 3.

Do we not have to formally request the Lamenters/etc join us?
Alectai

Yay! Victory!
Mostly!
Either way, it is very cool and good.
I don't know, do we @HeroCooky ? I'm not sure how this all works out. The impression I got was that the Lamenters will generally help out with things like this, and we advise them of our intentions first?

I was thinking instead that we could get Sanctification, which would get us in range where we could buy a 2 pointer for a single AP, and since Heavy Cruisers might be imminent, it'd be best to put that on Ship Designs so we could have the best one possible.
Sanctification is likely to give us some new Components, and we'll probably get some new ones with unlocking Heavy Cruisers too.
Wouldn't we rather buy sanctification and one of fighters/bombers and use the free to finish it?
Same result except we get sanctification one turn earlier.
- Pronouns
- They/Them
Sanctification first makes sense, but in this case I actually think that better Fighters or Bombers would fuck with them more than slightly better ships, because it enhances our paradigm.
Alectai
Speaks Words of Wisdom... On occasion
It's up for debate, the real fucker is that Fighters and Bombers are both 2 AP projects each, which hurts me.
The point is, Sanctification to line things up for a 1 AP 2 pointer, then we can get whichever one benefits us the most.
...
Honestly, I'd rather wait on Fighters/Bombers until we've gotten the Ion Shields researched first though, that'd be an excellent way to mitigate (Though probably not eliminate) the danger of NOVACANNON to our strike craft.
