On the subject of "interesting picks for making Atraxas stronger," I'd like to remind everyone of an option (with 0 cost, at that!) to get +10 Atraxas Learning for 2 Actions:
Harkar, previously:
Commander Erana Harkar (Cadian): 19 Martial
Cadian Prodigy: when commanding armies acts as if Martial is Tier 3 baseline (39 to command and training rolls)
Cadian Spec Ops: +10 Martial score baseline and +10 to Martial and +20 Willpower vs Chaos Forces
Void Engineer: uses Naval Martial to build space born machines and infrastructure, allows Deep Space construction. Effectiveness scales with scale of design, designs skewed towards military usage
Gains this turn: Strange Aeons: A 40k Xeno Governor Quest
If I understand correctly, she now has 29 Martial, +10 when facing Chaos, +15 (+20?) when commanding armies. She's nigh-immortal, ignores certain types of damage, ignores weaker mind-control, ignores non-warp environment penalties, fights as Low Astartes if someone manages to duel her, is difficult to surprise, can decide to succeed rolls she failed (max 100 DC/turn), is superhumanly tough, and is very weakly antimagic.
You may compare her 50s-Martial ground-forces-vs-Chaos score with Atraxas' comparable score and think, "They're roughly equal commanders." But remember that the Exatari's big schtick is "we ignore narrative but have high enough stats to work around the issues with that" and Harkar has a narrative significantly boosting her (as a Human aka "the group that have 'stats' as their dump-stat").
Not worthwhile this turn, nor really pre-Invasion, but after we get Information 1 it'll be effectively +20 to all Learning Actions...
