That is the issue, yes.
For all we know the DE broke out all the good stuff from their city in the webway...could be facing things from the Pre-Fall Empire.
But in character, we should be planning to face regular DE forces.

If they are running on mainly Eldar Empire gear then we may need to break out the Exterminatus gear since it is unlikely we can counter it without utterly ridiculous losses. Of course if they only have some of their old stuff that can be countered by just accepting it and out fighting them.

I don't think they have much in the way of Super-Heavy. Their homebase in the webway is Commorragh, so it affords them little scope to apply it.
In the Apocalypse rulebook their Titan-Killer teams consist of trios of Ravagers tasked with nailing SH Walkers.
Yet, as always, the amount of insane archaeotech and generally unwholesome wargear that has been sitting in lonely warehouses in the dark city would pucker the arsehole of Marneus Calgar. So ... yeah. The Craftworld Eldar certainly have damned fine Titans that could ballet dance as they squished other races super-heavies and I don't think they've done much in the way of weapons research tech in their survival focus, so it probably pre-dated the fall. So it is something the Dark Eldar may have the plans for...
Astra Militarium Conclusion: "Middling-Confidence No. Shouldn't have any but you never know."
Edit:
May not be in the form of walkers though. They could also be upscaling their Ravagers now they don't have to worry about space requirements. Dark Eldar Baneblade equivs. After all, Craftworld Eldar super-heavies include things like Cobras, which are SH Skimmer Tanks.

This is very good.
Researching the armor should be pretty easy now.
Having a partial STC of the main engine, and the broken remains of the main engine means it might be possible to actually complete the STC. We hadn't had much hope of reverse engineering the main engine before this.
A naval bomber and more guns are good. Having another variant of the laser defense grid may help us understand how to adjust it for different sized ships better.
Good stuff. The Melta Macrocannon shell is very nice - that's a blatant anti-titan weapon the ground, and will probably be a horror against enemy ships and defenses.
@durin - will we be able to produce any of these Melta shells for the upcoming attack? They would probably be very useful against the Dark Eldar's defense platforms.

yes, you will
Works for me. I just wanted to know if we'd have them or not. They might make my idea of using Gerald in space work - melting the psychic wards is one way to get past them. Hell, even if that doesn't work, the resulting explosion gives him nuclear hellfire to work with. Just control it and send it against the next nearest ship or defense platform.
Even if not, this is a major find. Melta Torpedoes are one of the rarest starship weapons around, and they're second only to Vortex Torpedoes in their sheer destructive power. These rounds probably aren't quite as powerful as those, but it's still a major increase in the amount of firepower we can use against the enemy.
One other big find in the manufacturing areas...
"There are also several technologies designed for the construction of starship parts and the repair of starships that seem to be more effective then current methods."
This is big and we should reverse engineer this soon. Speeding up ship construction will be a big help in offsetting the attrition we've been dealing with regarding overall fleet size.

I never got any feedback from anyone on my ideas for possible one turn actions to prepare to fight the Dark Eldar.

Sorry fo asking, but where are the new findings in the Well´s factories posted?
Yeah I know that it will be in the Mechanicus section, but I haven´t find where exactly.

Or something of the sort.
This is hilarious because I remember Durin mentioning that in his quest the Imperium actually found a way to produce ships faster.
Hence why our fleet engagements are super fucking big compared to standard fluff.

Which explains why orks and chaos can match our fleet numbers, because no matter how quick we build they still like to pirate imperial stuff and turn it against us.
But DE should be shipbuilding at the same rate they always have.

Turn Fifty-Three
As you think back over the last year a single event stands out. The Nine Worlds will soon be marching to war on a scale so far unseen, with the vast majority of the Navy and hundreds of millions of the best soldiers in the Nine Worlds attacking a world protected by unknown and arcane technologies. You will be doing as much as possible to prepare Avernus for this campaign and know that with the forces deployed even a victory could take decades or more to recover from. This recovery will be aided greatly by what Archmagos Explorator Tranth has recently found which after a little research will most likely be able to allow you to build new warships far more powerful and tough then your navy currently has access to.
General Drago is currently beginning preparations for the campaign against the Dark Eldar and has come up with several last minute preparations that you could make. As well as several last minute training actions he has suggested bringing some of your militia AA to help counter the deadly Dark Eldar air force.
Freya has been readying the Avernite Navy for the upcoming campaign against the Dark Eldar. She tells you that a naval defeat or even a pyrrhic victory now could cripple the Imperial Trusts Navy and leave the Nine Worlds vulnerable for decades to come. On another note Freya has become a bit of a theological scholar in recent years as she has been studying the new Imperial Truth in an effort to keep ahead of Syr's questions.
Freya gains trait Aspiring Theological Scholar (+1L, +1P)- Since Syr developed an interest in theology Freya has been studying many religious texts in an attempt to stay ahead of the questions that Syr asks. This has strengthened both Freya faith and her understanding of the new Imperial Truth.
Henry is currently rather busy with his projects and does not have enough free time to come up with any more. He does tell you that while he hopes that the current factory expansion will be enough for the moment you will need to expand the factories even further to prevent mateiral shortages being an issue in the near future.
Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan is currently busy trying to locate signs of Dark Eldar infiltration in the Imperial Trust. So far he has found no signs of any which is just making him more paranoid. Despite their leaders preoccupation the diplomats are able to continue their work with no issues.
Jane tells you that Avernus is as ready for Dark Eldar infiltrators as it will get in the near future and that no more actions should be taken on that front. She also mentions that while the cults are currently under control she would like to set up more countermeasures against them before there is another flare up.
Archmagos Explorator Tranth tells you that with his recent finds he will be able to easily reverse engineer many of the components of The Well of Urd. Combined with those of the Ancient Defence Cruiser this means that new Imperial Trust warships will be far more deadly then current ships, a useful fact given the damage that the Imperial Trust Navy will most likely sustain in the coming campaign.
Saint Lin is worried by the recent news, knowing that this is an event that your break the Imperial Trust and has offered any help that he can provide. He has suggested attaching Orders Dialogous sisters to the general staff to translate Dark Eldar transmission and has offered to personally join the campaign, which would provide a much needed boost to morale but risk his life.
Both Headmaster Ridcully and Primaris Xavier are preparing for the coming campaign in which the talents of them and their people could prove to be vital. Despite this preperations however their normal duties remain and both of them have made personal breakthroughs this year, with Headmaster Ridcully developing a even greater theoretical understanding of the warp as Primaris Xavier figures out how to Blink while Phased, a skill that is likely to prove useful in the coming days.
Headmaster Ridcully's trait Scholar has been upgraded to Respected Scholar (+4L) – Headmaster Ridcully has developed a true skill for research and a theoretical understanding of psychic phenomena that few can match.
Primaris Xavier has developed the trait Phased Blinking (+2I, +1C, +2 Control)- Primaris Xavier is able to blink while Phased, a feat that requires enormous control and provides several new options in terms of stealth and combat.
You are currently rather busy preparing for the upcoming campaign against the Dark Eldar and have been getting as much of your normal work out of the way beforehand. You have actually honed your administrative skills to an even higher level doing this and can now match Henry in administrative skill again.
Trait Avernite Administrator upgraded to Expert Avernite Administrator (+3A, +1C)- In your time on Avernus you have developed both your administrative skills and combat capabilities to ever increasing levels. You have continued to developed your administrative skills as time goes on even as your combat skills start to plateau.

Upgrade Escorts: Sensors and Point Defence- One of the decisions made in the recent Emergency High Council Meeting was to equip your escorts with the more advanced sensors and point defence systems found in the Ancient Defence Cruiser STC. This will involve slowing work on the merchantmen for the rest of the year so the shipyards can be used for upgrades but there is still a chance that the merchantmen will be completed this year.

Reward: escorts equipped with Laser Defence Grid and Advanced Sensors.
Locked – Zero out of One years completed
Orbital Defences: Heavy Weapons Platforms- Freya tells you that while you have a reasonable number of orbital defences they could currently be overwhelmed by many attack forces. The next step is to build more Heavy Defence Platforms which will give your defences more stations that can exchange fire with attacking Cruisers equally.
Time: 5 years.
Cost: 315,900,000 Thrones, 115,900,000 Material, 25,650,000 Metal, 4,550,000 Promethium, 10,019 Advanced Material.

Reward: 36 Orbital Weapons Platforms added to the defences of Avernus.
Locked – Two out of Five years completed
Construct: Merchantmen – Henry suggests building even more merchantmen so that you can cut back on the number of navigators that you use even more. This would take several years but would increase the number of Merchantmen based on Avernus by 50%. Henry considers this to be of low priority.
Time: 3 years.
Cost: 17,280,000 Thrones, 2,592,000 Material, 5,184,000 Metal, 864,000 Promethium, 5,160 Advanced Material, 276 Exotic Material.

Henry is currently rather busy with his projects and does not have enough free time to come up with any more. He does tell you that while he hopes that the current factory expansion will be enough for the moment you will need to expand the factories even further to prevent mateiral shortages being an issue in the near future.
Three Locked Choose None
Build City for Quartoks- You have recently agreed to build a large city for the Quartoks in Elysium. Henry would like to get started immediately so that the Quartoks can be taken from their temporary quarters in Garden Grove before any issue crop up.

Enlarge Factories: Avernus – Henry has a plan to enlarge the factories of every city in Avernus, which would increase your total production capacity by around 50%.

Henry considers this to be of low priority.
Time: 4 years.
Cost: 1,737,000 Thrones, 347,500 Material, 347,500 Metal, 69,500 Promethium.

Locked – One out of Three years completed: Expedited
Underground Railways: Full network- Currently your underground railways mostly connect each city to two of the neighbouring cities with a single long line. Henry has plans to expand this to connecting each city to all neighbouring cities and to put a line over the north of the Azure Bay to connect Elysium to the main network. This will be time consuming and expensive but will allow for far closer links between cities and prevent there from being single points of failure in your rail networks. Henry considers this to be of high priority.
Time: 6 years

This would be far more expensive and take longer to set up but would allow for the long term storage of truly massive amount of food. Henry considers this to be of very low priority.
Time: 4 years.

Expand Promethium Refineries: Mag Mell- While the current promethium extractors provide more then enough promethium for Avernus as well as quite a bit to trade Henry has put forwards a plan to expand the Promethium Refineries at Mag Mell even further. This will around double the amount of excess Promethium that you have to trade allowing you to become one of the main exporters in the Nine Worlds. Henry considers this to be of low priority.

Reward: Huge Promethium Refinery at Mag Mell, increase base promethium efficiency to +500%, +2,000,000 (apro 125 million after bonuses) bonus promethium production.
Rapid Good Couriers: Mass- While the current number of Rapid Goods Couriers in the Azure Islands in enough to cover the current transport needs Henry has put forward a plan to increase this four-fold. This should allow for near instant transport of goods and people between the Azure Islands and neighbouring regions and drive down the transport price significantly.
Time: 4 years

Reward: Educational exchange with the rest of the Nine Worlds, +50% to base educational bonus (currently +150%), applies after turn 55.
Administratum Reorganisation: Part Four – Now that the Imperium has collapsed, other things are in the process of doing so as well. Henry wishes to reorganise the Administratum to be more efficient over small areas. This will be a long and difficult process, but Henry will continue now that he has started.

Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan is currently busy trying to locate signs of Dark Eldar infiltration in the Imperial Trust. So far he has found no signs of any which is just making him more paranoid. Despite their leaders preoccupation the diplomats are able to continue their work with no issues.
Choose Two
All diplomacy actions will have a -10 to their success chance due to the preoccupation of the Nine Worlds on preparing for the upcoming campaign this year
Request Trainers: Void Infantry Regiments- Freya suggests that you request that Vanaheim send over some of their instructors for their Void Infantry Regiments to help you develop your own. This would be relatively cheap and would give you a major leg up in developing Void Infantry Regiments.
Time: 1 year.
Cost: 40 Credits owed to Vanaheim
Reward: reduce the time Recruit: Void Infantry takes to 4 years
Lobby for Quartok (Write in target and argument)- Your proposal to make the Quartok a protectorate species under the Imperial Trust faces major opposition.

Time: 1 year
Chance of Success: Varies from 0% to 30%, can not use Inquisitorial re-roll
Cost: 128,000 Thrones
Reward: On success target High Councillor abstains from vote on Quartoks, on critical success target High Councillor supports the Quartoks.
In Depth Investigation (Alfheim, Midgard, Muspelheim, Svartalfheim, Vanaeheim, Jotunheim)- Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan is willing to spend the time conducting a far more in-depth investigating of one of the planets that he has already reinvestigate. However it is likely to lead to a minor diplomatic incident if he is caught which is rather likely unless a spy network is in place on the chosen planet.

Cost: 2,370,000 Thrones.
Reward: More information on chosen planet.
Sound Out (Colonisation)- Governor Olaf of Vanaheim has recently requested that people start considering what laws should be put in place about colonisation for the Imperial Trust. Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan suggets sounding out the other members of the High Council to determine their views.

Jane tells you that Avernus is as ready for Dark Eldar infiltrators as it will get in the near future and that no more actions should be taken on that front. She also mentions that while the cults are currently under control she would like to set up more countermeasures against them before there is another flare up.
Two Locked Choose One
Intelligence Analysts- Jane would like to set up a group of intelligence analysts to examining reports of Chaos Cults in an attempt to estimate the approximate number of Cultists that have escaped detection. This would give her a far better and more immediate indication that cult numbers are building up, allowing her to nip problems in the bud more often,
Time: 5 years.

Arbites Liaisons (Quartok)- Your agreement with First Councillor Aryz included you sending an Arbites team to observe them and offer advice. While this team is primarily there to ensure that they are not corrupted by the forces of Chaos in the short term it will also fulfil the essential duty of helping to deal with any conflicts that arise between the Quartok and the people of Garden Grove, conflicts that are likely to arise given the Xenophobic propaganda that the humans were mostly raised on and the history of the Quartok.
Time: 3 years or until Quartoks move into Capar, whichever come last.
Cost: 7,100,000 Thrones, 142,000 Material, 2,840 Promethium, 69 Advanced Material

Locked – Three out of Three years completed: Will continue until Quartok City is built
Spy Network (Planet) – Jane suggests setting up a network of Avernite agents in the Nine Worlds. Initially, this network would simply provide reports on what is happening in the given world, but you will be able to build upon this base for more detailed and focused information.

Reward: Very basic spy network on chosen planet, gain basic information on events on planet, +20 to all investigate actions on planet.
Deepen Spy Network ( Svartalfheim, Alfheim, Midgard or Vanaheim)- While you have a basic spy network in Midgard and Vanaheim it is not particularly comprehensive and does not extend much past local gossip. Jane has plans to change this by both increasing the number of agents that she has deployed and by trying to get some within medium security positions. She warns you that it would be a major diplomatic issue if her attempts to set up this network is detected

Reward: Spy network on chosen planet upgraded to basic Spy Network, +40 to all investigate actions on planet, can discover secret information.
Central Security Council- One of Jane's reposes to recent cult troubles is to create a Central Security Council that will coordinate Avernus Security forces to a greater level then is currently the case. This will take up a lot of her time and the time of her Arbitrators when it is active but should greatly increase the efficiency of your security forces.

Prepare Battle Psyker: Grand Choir- Another option for the deployment of your Battle Psykers is to form a single Grand Choir and deploy them as a mass. This would limit there effect to a single location but would allow for massive psychic workings to be used.
Time: 1 year
Cost: 6,600,000 Thrones, 6,600 Material, 3,300 Promethium, 66 Advanced Material.
Reward: Battle Psykers deployed as a single unit allow for massive psychic workings.
Last Minute Training- Given that they are about to be deployed as part of the largest campaign that the Imperial Trust has ever launched Primaris Xavier thinks that it would be a good idea to put them though an intensive training course. This would prepare them for the upcoming war but would take quite a bit of time and effort from the senior psykers.
Time: 1 year.
Cost: 6,600,000 Thrones, 6,600 Material, 3,300 Promethium, 66 Advanced Material.
Reward: +5 to Battle Psykers rolls for the upcoming campaign.
All In- Headmaster Ridcully understands the importance of the upcoming campaign and is willing to pause his current research in order to better prepare his forces for it, This will reduce his chance of succeeding with his research as well as delaying it for a year but will allow for Headmaster Ridcully to better prepare his men for the upcoming campaign.
Time: 1 year.
Cost: Free
Reward: Pause research for the year allowing you to take two other actions, free actions, -10% chance of research succeeding.
Minor Talents – Headmaster Ridcully would like to lead his Sanctionites in the hunt for minor psykers. This would greatly increase the number of minor psykers found and allow for a large group of Witch Sniffers to be built up far sooner.
Time: 1 year.
Chance of Success: 80%
Cost: 810,000 Thrones.
Reward: increased number of minor psykers found this year
Research (Trolls, Gnaw Worms) – Many of the more interesting creatures of Avernus use psychic powers in some manner and while Magos Biologis Saren has discovered as much about them as he can, there is still more to learn. Headmaster Ridcully would like to lead a team of Sanctionites to try to discover more about these species, hopefully including how to mimic their innate powers in some manner.
Time: 1 year
Chance of Success: Unknown (uses learning)
Cost: 81,000 thrones, 8,100 Material, 8.6 Advanced Material.
Reward: More information on chosen species, chance of learning new psychic power.
Research (Siren Shield)- One of the abilities that Siren Ladies display is the capacity to form a powerful Psychic Shield that protects them from harm. While this is a common power the Sirens version seems to be superior to the type used by Imperial Sanctionites. Primaris Xavier is sure that with a few years study he would be able to figure out what the difference is and how to improve on the Imperial version.
Time: 3 years
Chance of Success: Unknown, very low(uses control)
Cost: 720,000 Thrones, 72,000 Material, 86 Advanced Material.
Reward: Chance of improving Psychic Shield power.
Research: Black Crystal Items (Item)- Last year Headmaster Ridcully determined that each of the items of Black Crystal has its own unique property, though he was not able to determine what they are. He tells you it would most likely take a couple of years of study to determine exactly what the unique properties are but it would most likely be worth the time expended.
Time: 2 year
Chance of Success: Unknown (uses learning)
Cost: 355,000 thrones, 17,750 Material, 43 Advanced Material.
Reward: More information on Black Crystal Item selected

@durin couple of questions research wise.
Also sensors but those aren't on the list unless they fall under Datanet and plasma batteries.
Shouldn't these have higher chances of success since we found half finished components of them to study from the crit on internal factories?
Also sensors but those aren't on the list unless they fall under Datanet and plasma batteries.
Aren't both of these pretty much complete since we have the STCs for them from the ancient Defense Cruiser thus shouldn't need to look them over on the Well?
Should the success chance being higher on these as well since we have half finished versions we can study?

the super lance and secondary engines have gained +20 to their success chance
there are several differences in design for the laser weapons batteries
the assault shuttle and jetbikes have had their chances improved
please compare to previous turns before complaining
