You gave them Webway Access is what I meant :p

You know…I'm very glad we decided to bring everything we could spare to shoot down the invaders. Also…how much would the Eldars care that the Rak'Gols are now in the webway? Becuase at this point if they still don't care I'm getting mighty tempted to start poking the structure or just throwing it into End of the Line's star.

At this point if we don't want to do anything to the structure we'll have to have more military fortifications than the Imperials have at Voxx.
 
It seems that the Mashan have repelled Chaos

About the Mashan, do they know we have humans? I remember reading about what happened to them because of the Emperor crazy xenophobia so if they don't know it might be a good idea to plan for that bomb.
 
As far as it goes, obviously Investigate is the Default, and speaking of... we really, really do want to use some of the Kildrabi paths sometime soon, some of them look really fucking cool as far as Melodies go. As far as I go, I'm thinking "Investigate" and, hmm.

Psykana Institutions Not Our Own:
[] (Write-In)

I think almost I'm imagining that having the same Psykana Institution would be a quality all but required of Kin, but one that is far from necessary for Protectorates? Or does that make any sense?
 
Since Kin and Protectorate became part of the discussion, how long are the Yeeni gonna be a Protectorate? It's been a little over two hundred years already and they have been as nice to us and in general as the Kil'drabi, do they have to wait three hundred years too?

Generally the way we did it is that it takes some combination of good deeds or whatever? That question feels like a complicated one, as far as it goes. Part of me wants to wait and see what the Not Enterprise does, since I think Scouts just do stuff in the background?

Protectorate are all non-Human polities that you have taken under your wing as part of the Glimmering Federation, with Kin being treated as no different than Humans for the purpose of legal/voting weight for the undeniable services and committment they have shown to and for a better age in the galaxy.

And the Yeeni did not have the opportunity to do so. Until now. *Star Trek Intro Starts*
 
On the one hand, having a strong Psykana is one of our biggest advantages and getting non-Song disciplines will make us more versatile. On the other hand, it's partly because we do Songs that our Psykana is so strong (our Psykers aren't going insane all the time).
I think I'll vote for Investigate. We have a unique and potent Discipline, let's develop it rather than branch out into more dangerous stuff.
[X] Investigate

[X] Plan: Five Bounds of Sacred Psykery

- [X] While we recognize that our Protectorates may have Psykana Traditions and Institutions that differ from our own, and approve of this as beneficial in the variety and versatility of Psychic Disciplines that this would grant the Glimmering Federation and its Protectorates; these Traditions and Institutions must exist within bounds defined herein, for the safety and liberty of our citizens psykers and otherwise. These bounds are fivefold, as follow:
- [x] First, a Bound of Faith: because we recognize that there can be no safe use of the Warp without the protection and blessing of the Five-in-One, these Institutions and their psykers must be devoted to the Star Child.
- [x] Second, a Bound of Rights: because Psykers are equally under the light and love of the Star Child as any other of the Faithful, they must be allowed all the rights afforded to the Faithful, within reasonable limits of public safety.
- [x] Third, a Bound of Security: because souls must be kept safe from Demonic influences, Psychic Discipline practices must be safe from Chaotic interference. If, even under the light and protection of the Five-in-One, there remain a risk to the soul of the Psyker (and those around) from the use of Psychic Disciplines, then they are a threat to the Sanctity of Souls and are to be struck from the records and never to be used.
- [x] Fourth, a Bound of Totality: because Psykery is as powerful to the initiated as it is dangerous to the uniniated, the Psykana Institutions must take charge of all Psykers within their Protectorate, or else remand the remaining Psykers to the Psykana of the Federation.
- [x] Fifth, a Bound of Duty: because the Gifts of the Star Child are not to lay fallow, and because each citizen of the Federation and its Protectorates has a duty to the Faithful, it is expected of all the Psykers of the Institutions to make use of their Gift in the service of the Federation and its Protectorates.
- [x] Within these Five Bounds, may we all lift our voices into Song.

[X] Develop
(You will seek ways to look at and develop non-Song-based Psykana Disciplines. This will split your focus and be dangerous, but it could be rewarding.)

Def this one for me super intresnted in what non song based Psykana Disciplines we could make! and bet they be super reward/helpful for us too

@HeroCooky would a accetable writing in action be building a large amount of defensive station in the end of the line?

[X] Plan: A Choir is made up of many voices
-[X] Psykana Institutions not following the Choir model are allowed, but they are subject to oversight
--[X] Their Ways must abide by Candlekeeper understanding of justice.
--[X] All Psyker must be members of an approved Psykana Institutions, and no sub-polity can ban their Psykers from joining the Choirs if the Choirs accept them.
--[X] They must be safe against Chaos.
---[X] A Psykana Institution that has not yet proven to be fully immune to Chaos like the Choir system can operate in reduced capacity for examination.
----[X] Examination requires informed consent from all would be members, all actions of a Psykana Institution undergoing examination are to happen under supervision of at least one full Choir (to be sufficient, the Choirs must be confident to be able to deal with the worst case), members of a Psykana Institution under examination are to be under special scrutiny (loaylty? competence?) and be under watch after the trial ended unless it has been proven beyond a doubt that they have not been infected with any chaos-thing that could hatch once we stop looking.
---[X] Proven Psykana Institutions can have these requirements eased at the digression of the Federation Councils Choir seat to the point of only requiring reporting of the Psykana Institutions action to a to-be-founded office of the Federation Concils Choir seat and no-less-than-once-a-decade suprise checks.

Fourth, a Bound of Totality: Because Psykery is as powerful to the initiated as it is dangerous to the uniniated, the Psykana Institutions must take charge of all Psykers within their Protectorate.
Fifth, a Bound of Duty: Because the Gifts of the Star Child are not to lay fallow, and because each citizen of the Federation and its Protectorates has a duty to the Faithful, it is expected of all the Psykers of the Institution to make us of their Gifts in the service of the Federation and its Protectorates.

Within these Five Bounds, may we all lift our voices into Song.

I think that fits, honestly? It's chill.

[X] Investigate
---

Their only weaknesses are that they're absolute dogshit at hiding because of all that radiation, and their Armor sucks compared to most ships. Also, somehow through some mysterious method, everything remotely salvageable mysteriously disappears along with any survivors if they ever lose, and what's left is completely useless.
So basically, the best counter-play against them is to stay at range and snipe their ships out from under them before they close to melee range? Kite and use lances since their armor is poor and use our fighter craft to screen rather than attack.

Well, I wasn't going to advocate revisiting the Sagittarius frigates so soon (or my light lance cruiser idea), but I think this might bump it up a few notches. Perhaps after our infrastructure turn?
 
News that no one here but me gives a fuck about, but I'll share it anyway.

So far whatever the fuck's going on in Sophrian's Paradise and Orphemu hasn't spread to anywhere else yet. So we might just be able to rule out Nids (for now, given that most Genestealer infestations take literal decades to become and issue).

Still spooked by those two systems
"So, you thought the Orks were bad? How about a species of trans-Space Marine radiation filled killing machines that exist solely to brutally murder All Living Beings in the Cosmos?"

Just Edge of the Galaxy Things. And now they have apparently broke into the Webway.

Notably, doctrinally speaking, they are our Counter. Nothing like Turret Fucking Five on a Light Cruiser

Those things are supposed to stuck in the Halo Stars

Let me just rephrase that.

THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE IN THE HALO STARS!!!!!!

If that sentence doesn't put the fear of god into you, then nothing will.

Why are the Ghoul Stars coming to us?! What did we do wrong?
