What should your focus for the rest of the Quest be?

So given that we are almost guaranteed to get hiveworld under control I want to make a song for cogbois so they maybe can find STC or other ancient tech:

Humanity Technology Technology Perception Perception

I think humanity should prevent discovering any Cybernetic revolt evil and double tech and double perception should help us get compass for STC

[] Plan: The Revolution Will Be Televised
-[] They are giftwrapping you an ideal FOB, and it'd be the epitome of rude to refuse, wouldn't it? We'll take over the system.
-[] Record the whole retreat, because all of this is going to go into the propaganda reels. As is what happens next... no matter what it is, it'll be, let us say, instructive.
-[] Given the utter naval dominance we hold, we should be able to secure the orbitals reasonably intact, and ship in forces capable of securing the planet to turn into our front line against the Free Duchy. Maintain a strong naval garrison here to deter any adventurism, but if we can fight our battles here instead of in Archwan, we'll have a much easier time securing food shipments to Voxx Primus. Them being able to threaten us from two directions isn't great... But the opposite is also true--they need to deploy twice the forces to this front simply to hold us in place--let alone think about pushing back, and the astrography of the Sub-Sector is such that movement from one side of the "Hexagon" to the other takes vastly longer if one link in the chain is sealed. So each force has to be independently powerful. That puts pressure on what is likely already a highly strained reserve, doubly so with their major recruiting world now behind two links of occupied territory.
-[] Offer both the SDF, PDF, and the local forces surrender using the Surrender Admiral and everything, outlining reasonable, even kindly terms... if not absurdly generous. Obviously those with slaves don't keep slaves, and so on and so forth. Be willing to provide information if it will aid surrender, as to the nature of the Federation/etc, now that the enemy cannot transmit it along anymore. If they accept, good, and if they refuse, military targets are to be attacked, surrender is to be offered, and if refused... quarter is to be given, but mercy is not. Whether it's as an example of how surrendering doesn't have to be as bad as they might fear... or of the consequences and vast might of the Federation to its diehard enemies, this is likely to make "must piss oneself TV" for the Loyalists on Voxx Primus.
 
... What would come from
Humanity Humanity Humanity Humanity Humanity?
And also Compassion Compassion Compassion Compassion Compassion?

Oh yeah, now that fighting has started on Primus, how are our Choirs stacking up to Free Duchy Psykers @HeroCooky
Equal. Which is a fucking strong endorsement of your system if there ever was one, because they need to take Gamma And Higher Psykers to reliably work, you take the shit below Gamma and punch up.
What scale of effect can we expect from symphonies? And how are they made?
Depends.

This feels like the "martyrdom song you can only sing once."

I think it will depend on the songs used for it, I wouldn't be surprised if using only songs with five melodies (for a total of 50 melodies), or Symphony made out of 55 melodies total were especially powerful, like Create a new sun powerful, or make a soul stone or wraith bone powerful.

I think that we shouldn't just put all the songs together without care; if the melody is a scene, the song is a chapter, then the symphony is a story.
 
I would not poke symphonies they have very explicit warning of bad things with pointy ears attached to them.
They do?

We already have 7. So three more songs and we can do that. Probably not soon, but still.

throwing 10 random things togehter is unlikely to have beneficial effects.

The interactions between "internstellar telecommunications", "send souls to the afterlife", "hide yourself" and "invert power" could be bad.
 
Well, an obvious combination might be: A Web of Song, Break Your Chains, Dirge for the Innocent, A Spark of Genius, and one more that fits it.

"Sing, Innocent Martyrs and Heroes of the Genius Of Liberty" or whatever.

I don't expect to be throwing all 10 into a melting pot and hoping. I'm thinking three, maybe telecoms, send souls and hiding to actually create an afterlife.
 
Hmm. Also it's about equal. With tier 1 melodies! Like this shit is wild that we are holding our own with the tier ones without the risk of turning into an equal mass of demons unlike other psykers. Like note we don't have dedicated psyker combat songs other than diverting power and are still kicking ass

Oh my god, @HeroCooky . They're fucking up because The Battleship Mafia is still strong in their brains, aren't they? They think they've only ultimately done damage to a secondary aspect of our fighting strength instead of gutted the core of our doctrine, and we effectively bluffed them into thinking that they've barely done a scratch, haven't we?

I mean, they've certainly scratched us but I'm not sure about gutted since we got all those Libras operational again. So even if they recognize how powerful our carriers are they'd still think they did didley squat due to how it seems those losses we just instantly nullified.

Hmm, I'd also add in something in regards to the planet below, like getting some War Packs ready to go when they're done in Voxx Secundus and get any loose SAGs over here. Like, 10 extra War Packs coming in could get us an opening to rotate some people out from the Hives

@Alectai can we put something in there about harrying the Van Zandt forces out of the system. They rolled 3 1's, they shouldn't be retreating in good order. I'd love a few massed fighter strikes to pick off a few ships.

I mean, apparently they straight up denied battle, we can't actually intercept that if they left before we entered even extreme weapon range.
