Please stop memeing your way into a potentially unforced error. That's the kind of thing that would lead to a Good End. I don't think we're in the position to even dream of that.

Yeah let's not get too crazy there. At minimum we can expect the trait to deepen and/or broaden the scope of the effects it already has, and might make miracle casting available. If a god 1/5th of the way to being born could ensoul the Necrons they'd probably already be at the Tau's doorstep begging for help.
Fair enough, I just realised that is minuscule chance that we stole Silent Kings ride
To the people who wish for the 3 previous traits option. Would it be possible for you all to get some kind of consensus on the 3 traits chosen? This way everybode would have a better idea what exactly the actual voting option is.
Same for those wishing for the 25 actions, I gave a brief overview on what I would like on a previous post, which admittedly seems like a less popular opinion currently, but this way we can have a bit better discussion imo.

The Silent King is not going to be slumming it on a shit ride like the piddly little escort we have

We've solid consensus on Civilian Warp Shipping and Logistical Analytics, with me coming around to the "Healthy Food" angle. Excellent applications in war and peace alike, with the tools we need to continue growing in the turns to come.

I'd need to see that write-in, but it would be costly in terms of Actions.
No, if a Trait says "Can be Upgraded," then you need to choose it so its Upgraded Version is available in the next Milestone of that category.
No, you will get other, more powerful, ones, alongside the Upgrade Version of an "Can be Upgraded" Trait if you chose one.
They took the 25 Actions and dumped them into research.
Mandatory in the "American Christian Missionary in the Colonization Period" way. You aren't going to wholesale slaughter non-believers if they don't immediately know all the intricate rituals and secret yo-yo tricks you have, but you will gradually push your faith onto them and start reaching for the clubs when push-back occurs too strongly for too long.
What you said.
The downside is that you have to choose one of the ISCs to activate/make use of every turn, with people naturally being argumentative about why XYZ ISC is better than 123 ISC if that set of Actions is taken instead of this set of Actions.
In other words; the other Questers are the downside.
Edit: They are also more narrow than people think? Its not going to be "Half-Cost to all Dev" but "Half-Cost to this singular specific Dev" in terms of what one ISC focused on development would give you.
Yes. Because they don't have to be 95% of the time. The other five percent? Horus Heresy.
Chaos can be plenty smart, patient, and resourceful. They are just lazy most of the time.
Fun Fact: Cerberus has already taken down 17 Chaos Cults within your territory! 🎉🥳🎉
LMAO, no.

That ship the Yeeni grabbed? Yeah, that was the Silent Kings vacation ride. And now he is stranded on a moon.

Agreed. I was surprised by how few people I saw advocating for the upgrade when that very trait is the reason Chaos has not been an actual headache for us like almost everyone else in the galaxy.
And even though nothing has been confirmed yet the name of our trait going from "A Hand to Hold the Candle, A Hand to Guide the Sword, A Mouth to Sing the Hymns, Two Feet to March against the Dark, and Eyes to See the Star Child's Light" to "My Soul Has Seen The Glory Of The Coming Of Our Star..." when all previous upgrades only added to the original name shows a significant chance of added benefits besides higher immunity to Chaos Corruption.
And yes, that was my way of saying I'm voting for A Beacon Unto The Future.

Most were Slaanesh, with Nurgle being the second, Khorne the third, and Tzeentch the last of the flock.

I mean, I'd less call the Horus Heresy "Chaos being Smart" and more "Chaos throws the dice too many times and only need to get lucky once to cascade that into calamity"
Horus was a dick, but a lot of the Primarchs were dicks, what really fucked them all over was "Lorgar Exists and got dropped in precisely the right place to be groomed into being a poison that took them all down." When they actually went for Horus, it was through the opening Lorgar's inner circle created, and his consent wasn't really necessary at that point since they could just keep trying until they got him.
All of the Primarchs were dicks, but they'd have just been normal dicks if the Chaos Gods didn't roll jackpot with Lorgar landing in precisely the ideal place for their schemes.
make sense with how good people in our society have it espically compared to most of the rest of the galaxy

…honestly hearing how many cults Cerberus has taken down kinda makes me want Beacon more, if only because it feels kinda icky to hear that some of the Federation's own civilians got corrupted like that, when to my knowledge we don't really have a way of fixing that corruption? Even reducing that number from 17 down to like 4-5 would be good to hear, and I think it'd be a stronger effect than that.
Yeah if the actions seem to be losing or they are too far from the thing I had in mind, I'll vote for this too. It's pretty cool sounding atleast.

In other words; "They created the conditions that allowed them to influence the right pieces to set the boards of the coming conflict to their favor, and when shit kicked off they yanked the chains and activated their plots, neutralizing the second most dangerous entity to them right after the Silent King at the head of a United Necron Empire in a few years."
The last 10k years of the Imperium existing is just them teabagging the whole time for style points, knowing that Big E won't Come Over There to murder two of them before getting ganked by the other two due to being too invested in humanity's survival.
The reality of living in a universe with Memetic Reality Tumors.
@HeroCooky how big were the cults and well how many people roughfly died?
Alectai

Hmm, that's fair. I didn't get the impression that the Chaos Gods got to pick where the Primarchs got yanked to, but if that's the case, then it really was them being "Clever"
does make the beacon option more tempting

Combined they accounted for around 100K people, but only 5k of those were part of the "Inner Circles," meaning they knew they weren't just some divergent or esoteric/mystery cult/sect but were praying to Chaos.
And all of the Inner Circles died violently, and all Outer Circle Members will die. That's just how aging works. 😔
How could they not? They were the ones that yeeted them through the Warp.

For fuck's sake, and that's with resistance.
My despair is impressive and my dismay true.
Thing is, I don't think just raising our Trait will close that off either, it'll just encourage the Chaos Gods to try harder. We don't qualify as an enemy to them yet.
EDIT: Oh, and on that last bit. Yeesh, the Emperor really dropped the ball there. Let them bust in and completely dictate where the Primarchs went?
I think it far to say it will decrease how succesfully they are a lot though

I don't think it'll close it off, but I think it'll make their attempts more obvious and give Cerberus less targets to focus on knowing that the ones that remain are the nasty fuckers. And, sure, Chaos isn't trying as hard as it could against us, but frankly just surviving will guarantee that they'll escalate to that point eventually. We're just getting ahead of the subversion curve, calling them bitches, and forcing them to dedicate subversive forces that actually matter or to fight us head on without those advantages, which they seem to rely on.

Why? 100K is miniscule. Those 95k weren't full members, some just shot the shit and had some free-style sex parties thinking they were part of a secret hedonist club, not a Chaos Cult, or part of a fighting ring betting and beating each other for the thrill of it, not a Chaos Cult. Five Thousand Cultists over the decades of Cerberus' existence is a fucking miracle that would have Imperial Inquisitors start shooting people for hiding numbers and dropping entire regiments unto planets to root out the, no-doubt, neck-high levels of Chaos squirming around on said planets.
To be fair; that was an inside job from a person he trusted.*Alectai said:
