yes she does, given that the main way to build up a Warp capable Navy is by repairing Hulks

If you use the merchantmen one it will end the constant production (it is possible)
That... does not make sense. When deciding between building warp capable ships and defense monitors, then obviously building warp capable ships gives you more warp capable ships.
If the choice was between building defense stations and defense monitors, then yes, building defense monitors marginally helps in releasing warp capable ships for other duty, but that was not the question.
Huh?
I'm not even sure what you are suggesting here.

He's suggesting that when we start having to hand over ships to the Nine Worlds Fleet we shouldn't give them DAoT tech ships. We should instead give them ships that the Imperium could build.

I'm pretty sure that'd ruin Avernus' reputation in the Imperial Trust. We'd be hoarding tech and power in that case.

It would
Actually what he's suggesting is that we could sell our Imperium model ships off, not that we would use them to pay the ship tithes. In fact, doing that for the tithes would break the law as the tithe requires that the paid ship be equivalent to the other one that got built. But that doesn't stop us from selling existing ships if we wanted to, either to the Navy or the system fleets.
Mind you, if we did sell our Imperium models off we would have to price them lower than DAoT ships for obvious reasons.

Apart from another Magma Wyrm attack on Dis (maybe you built it on a migration path or something) little of note has happened on Avernus last year. The biggest upcoming event is the fact that in a few years you will be able to repair and deploy some of the escorts found in the ship graveyard, which will allow you to gain large numbers of escorts more advanced then anything you currently posses. This will be your only hope of gaining a powerful fleet until Vanaheim is released from the Warp Strom and you are looking forward to it.
While General Drago remains busy with his projects the same can not be said for his immediate subordinates. To begin with Lieutenant-General Durant fell to a Dragon-Fruit attack late this year, reducing the number of veteran generals on Avernus to two. The next major change is that Lieutenant-General Khol has finally outgrown her nickname of "The Ice Princess", now being called the "Ice Queen" by her soldiers who are somewhat proud of her near-flawless emotionless mask. Lieutenant-General Agani has been working on her skills at commanding ambushes to a noticeable effect and has continued to prove why she is your best covert ops general.
Lieutenant-General Khol has trait Ice Princess upgraded to Ice Queen (+1M, +2I, +10 to morale of military forces under her command, far less likely to suffer from emotion based effects) - Samanta Khol rarely show emotions and always maintains a cold exterior demeanour despite whatever she is feeling. This trait combined with her beauty, skill and the effort she puts into keeping as many of her men alive as possible has earned her the nickname of "Ice Queen". Over her decades of command Lieutenant-General Khol has proven that she cares deeply about her men who are willing to follow her into the gate of hell despite the rumours that plagued her early career.
Lieutenant-General Agani gains trait Expert Ambusher (+1M, +2I, +5 to rolls made when ambushing for troops under her command)- Over her years as a Lieutenant-General Rebecca Agani has developed a real talent for organising and carrying out ambushes successfully.
Now that the shipyards are free Freya would like to further boost your navy, either by building more warships or by upgrading your Defence Monitors. She tells you that it will take several more decades before Avernus has access to a large enough fleet to defend itself but that this will be the next step in that direction. Another important step that needs to be taken is to expand the Naval Academy so that it can supply enough officers and crew to man the repaired ships from the ship graveyard. Admiral Parnell has recently being showing the results of his study of the Dark Eldar raiding tactics in naval exercises and can often inflict heavy damage when commanding raiders.
Admiral Parnell has gained trait Expert Raider (+1M, +2I, +10 to harassment by ships under his command) – Though a combination of his own experience and studying the techniques of the Dark Elder in the approach to Fjol IV Admiral Parnell has developed a thorough understanding of hit and run attacks and other forms of harassment.
Now that he has a bit more time, and the population has grown enough, Henry has put forward the plans to expand Mirkwood into a minor city. He strongly advises that you do this immediately as it will help shore up your largest existing weakness in the defences of Avernus. In other news Henry has yet again dusted off his plans for exploration of the neighbouring regions as your military is starting to approach full strength, hopefully this time he will be able to use them.
Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan is currently conducting negotiations with the Trolls, an experience he finds strange as the Imperium rarely bothered with primitive xenos and even when it did that was the Ordo Xenos' responsibility. He tells you that your decision to make contact with one of the native xenos species is leading to much discussion among the people of power in the Imperial Trust, both good and bad.
Jane is currently focusing on setting up various long term contingencies for the future, including situations such as her falling to Chaos and other improbabilities, showing just how routine her normal work is becoming. It really says something about Avernus, and Jane, that the leader of the Adeptus Arbites finds discovering over a hundred thousand Chaos cultists a year to be routine and boring.
Currently the Adeptus Mechanicus does not have the time to begin any more projects, though Fabricator-General Britton tells you that he has been considering several, none of which he has mentioned the details of yet.
Saint Lin continues to split his time equally between Avernus and Asgard this year. You suspect that he has travelled further since the Imperial Trust formed then anyone else in the Trust outside of the navy. He had a brush with death this year when a Gnaw Worm came out of the wall beside him, fortunately he was more then skilled enough to kill it.
Headmaster Ridcully is glad to have begun the research into Psychic Frequencies, saying that it could be the biggest breakthrough in the study of telepathy in his lifetime. Primaris Xavier on the other hand is frustrated by his efforts into Siren Shields, where he is certain that he is one small step from figuring them out. He is however willing to pause in his research for a year in order to do something else.
The last year has become slightly interesting as Syr reaches puberty and has started to act out a little bit. You are not looking forward to the next few years, particularly when she starts noticing boys and everything that comes with it. Sometimes you wish she had not inherited her mothers looks.

Five Locked Choose None
Recruiting- The assault on Fjol IV killed around half of your military, with some forces such as the Drop Troopers being nearly wiped out. It will take almost a decade for General Drago to train up enough new men to bring your forces to full strength and he would like to begin as soon as possible. It would take twenty years for normal recruiting to replace those who have fallen on Fjol IV during which some of your cities will be dangerously exposed to the wildlife of Avernus.

Locked – Six out of Nine Years completed
Vanquishers: Helltroopers- General Drago has put forward a proposal to replace half of the Helguard's and a fifth of the Helltroopers' Leman Russ Battle Tanks with Leman Russ Vanquishers. While expensive this would give all of your forces access to some very wonderful anti-tank weapons, make your armour capable of exterminating most enemy armour, and even being a major threat to the smaller Titans. This option will improve your general forces rather then provide an elite antitank force. Which option is more efficient is hard to determine but you can see how both are useful.

Locked – One out of Four years completed: Expedited
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.

Construct: Ancient Defence Cruisers- The Ancient Defence Cruiser is one of the most powerful warships its size that you have ever heard of, the most powerful human vessel. Freya would like to begin construction on seven which would severely increase the capabilities of your system defence force. The addition of a group of powerful capital ships to your Defence Monitors and stationary defences should prove to be enough to a protect your orbital industry from almost any assault.

Reward: 7 Ancient Defence Cruisers constructed
Expand Naval Academy- In a few years your shipyards will be able to begin repairing the hulked warships in the ship graveyard. This will be far quicker then building new ships from scratch and you will be able to repair warships faster then you can crew them. Freya would like to vastly expand the Naval Academy in order to provide this crew.

Reward: Navel Academy Expanded, can train three hundred thousand crew a year.
Orbital Defences: Defence Stations- The natural next step in building defences is to build more Defence Stations. These massive
constructions have the firepower and defences to exchange fire with a Grand Cruiser on an equal footing and are threats to even Battleships. Freya wants to build fourteen. This will allow you to position ten in both of your naval centers which will be enough to stop all but the most overwhelming attacks.

Reward: 14 Defence Stations added to the defences of the Avernus System.
Small Minefield: Deiphobe- One of the most effective methods of defending a naval base is the placement of a minefield. Freya would like to begin by placing a small minefield around Deiphobe, limiting the approaches that escorts can make and inflicting some damage on approaching cruisers. She has a whole collection of plans to enlarge or thicken this minefield, increasing the defence it provides.

Reward: 1 new small shipyard can build three more merchantmen at a time, increase to material production, decrease to ship upkeep.
Naval Evaluation- Freya would like to have professional Naval Officers from Vanaheim evaluate your navy so you know exactly what condition each ship's crew is in, both so you know if any ships need retraining and so you know if you have any ships with above regular levels of skill.
Time: 2 years.
Cost: 14,400,000 Thrones, 144,000 Material, 144,000 Promethium.
Reward: Gain Current Navy datasheet
Formal Education- While Freya has been taught a lot about Naval Command by her brother she lacks a formal education in these matters. She wants to spend three years going though the Naval Academy to change this. As well as increasing her abilities to command the Avernite Navy this would give her a higher level of respect from the professional Naval Officers of the Avernite Navy.
Time:3 years.
Chance of success: 50%

Reward: all 142 Defence Monitors refitted with up to date technologies.
Construct: Ancient Defence Cruisers- The Ancient Defence Cruiser is one of the most powerful warships its size that you have ever heard of, the most powerful human vessel. Freya would like to begin construction on seven which would severely increase the capabilities of your system defence force. The addition of a group of powerful capital ships to your Defence Monitors and stationary defences should prove to be enough to a protect your orbital industry from almost any assault.
Time: 8 years

Reward: 7 Ancient Defence Cruisers constructed
Expand Naval Academy- In a few years your shipyards will be able to begin repairing the hulked warships in the ship graveyard. This will be far quicker then building new ships from scratch and you will be able to repair warships faster then you can crew them. Freya would like to vastly expand the Naval Academy in order to provide this crew.
Time: 5 years
Cost: 30,500,000 Thrones, 305,000 Material, 305,000 Promethium, 8,670 Advanced Material.

Reward: Navel Academy Expanded, can train three hundred thousand crew a year.
Orbital Defences: Defence Stations- The natural next step in building defences is to build more Defence Stations. These massive
constructions have the firepower and defences to exchange fire with a Grand Cruiser on an equal footing and are threats to even Battleships. Freya wants to build fourteen. This will allow you to position ten in both of your naval centers which will be enough to stop all but the most overwhelming attacks.
Time: 6 years.
Cost: 277,800,000 Thrones, 72,580,000 Material, 21,590,000 Metal, 5,824,000 Promethium, 9,752 Advanced Material.

Reward: 14 Defence Stations added to the defences of the Avernus System.
Small Minefield: Deiphobe- One of the most effective methods of defending a naval base is the placement of a minefield. Freya would like to begin by placing a small minefield around Deiphobe, limiting the approaches that escorts can make and inflicting some damage on approaching cruisers. She has a whole collection of plans to enlarge or thicken this minefield, increasing the defence it provides.
Time: 2 years.
Cost: 64,000,000 Thrones, 12,800,000 Material, 640,000 Promethium, 8,600 Advanced Material
Upkeep per year: 1,600,000 Thrones, 320,000 Material, 16,000 Promethium, 107.5 Advanced Material
Reward: A small, light minefield around Deiphobe
Expand Shipyards- Large as your shipyards are they still are nothing compared to Vanahiem's, which themselves are insufficient to replace losses like those suffered over Midgard in a timely manner. Henry has put forward a plan to continue to increase your Naval production by building another small shipyard.
Time: 5 years. (can be taken multiple times)
Cost: 144,000,000 Thrones, 21,600,000 Material, 10,800,000 Metal, 21,600,000 Promethium, 1,032 Advanced Material, 48 Exotic Material.
Upkeep per year: 34,800,000 Thrones, 5,220,000 Material, 2,610,000 Metal, 5,220,000 Promethium
Reward: 1 new small shipyard can build three more merchantmen at a time, increase to material production, decrease to ship upkeep.
Naval Evaluation- Freya would like to have professional Naval Officers from Vanaheim evaluate your navy so you know exactly what condition each ship's crew is in, both so you know if any ships need retraining and so you know if you have any ships with above regular levels of skill.
Time: 2 years.
Cost: 14,400,000 Thrones, 144,000 Material, 144,000 Promethium.
Reward: Gain Current Navy datasheet
Formal Education- While Freya has been taught a lot about Naval Command by her brother she lacks a formal education in these matters. She wants to spend three years going though the Naval Academy to change this. As well as increasing her abilities to command the Avernite Navy this would give her a higher level of respect from the professional Naval Officers of the Avernite Navy.
Time:3 years.
Chance of success: 50%
Cost: Free
Reward: Freya attends Naval Academy, +1 Naval Morale, Freya Gains Trait Avernite Naval Academy Graduate, reduces amount of time Freya can spend with you and Syr for its duration (unless you also attend Naval Academy)
Now that he has a bit more time, and the population has grown enough, Henry has put forward the plans to expand Mirkwood into a minor city. He strongly advises that you do this immediately as it will help shore up your largest existing weakness in the defences of Avernus. In other news Henry has yet again dusted off his plans for exploration of the neighbouring regions as your military is starting to approach full strength, hopefully this time he will be able to use them.
Two Locked Choose One
Upgrade Defences: Dis and Hollin- This year Henry has put forward an plan to further upgrade the defences of both Dis and Hollin. The improvements that he has suggested are extensive and would approximately double the fire-power of these Hives' defensive weapons as well as strengthening the walls, adding more void shield generators, improving the internal defences and countless other improvements. It would be an expensive and time consuming task carrying out these upgrades, particularly if you follow Henry's plan and upgrade all the cities on Avernus, but it would greatly increase the difficulty of taking an Avernite city.
Time: 6 years

Locked – Two out of Six years completed
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 60%.

Henry considers this to be of low priority.
Time: 6 years.
Cost: 16,680,000 Thrones, 3,337,000 Material, 3,337,000 Metal, 667,400 Promethium, 340 Advanced Material.

Locked – Two out of Five years completed: Expedited
Expand City: Mirkwood- Mirkwood in Lidon is your last city that can be called regional and is therefore a defensive liability. It has had its population grow to the point where it can easily be expanded which would help reduce this liability. Henry considers this to be of high priority.

Reward: Expand Mirkwood into a Minor City.
Underground Railways: Expand- While you now have an underground railway between all of the cities of Avernus, barring The Azure Islands anyway, Henry still has plans to improve on it.

Time: 9 years.

Reward: Much larger rail network, +10% Thrones and +2% Material on the mainland, can transport more men at a time, can transport Reaver Titans.
Food Stores- While your new expanded food stores are capable of holding enough food for Avernus even in the worst case scenario Henry has put forward a suggestion to build some massive food storage areas to hold food for the rest of the Nine Worlds in case something happens to Alfheim, an idea that he has copied from Muspelheim. 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.

Administratum Reorganisation: Part Four – Now that the Imperium has collapsed, other things are in the process of doing so as well.

This is the fourth out of five planned reorganisation phases and is larger in scope then any of the previous plans.

Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan is currently conducting negotiations with the Trolls, an experience he finds strange as the Imperium rarely bothered with primitive xenos and even when it did that was the Ordo Xenos' responsibility. He tells you that your decision to make contact with one of the native xenos species is leading to much discussion among the people of power in the Imperial Trust, both good and bad.

Jane is currently focusing on setting up various long term contingencies for the future, including situations such as her falling to Chaos and other improbabilities, showing just how routine her normal work is becoming. It really says something about Avernus, and Jane, that the leader of the Adeptus Arbites finds discovering over a hundred thousand Chaos cultists a year to be routine and boring.
One Locked Choose One
Build Psyker Hunter Academies: All- This year Jane has suggested that you build more Psyker Hunter Academies, bringing the total up to one in every city on Avernus. This would massively increase the number of Psyker Hunters that can be trained allowing you to quickly reach the point where you can start sending them off world. Jane estimates that around forty thousand Psyker Hunters are needed for Avernus for maximum effect which would take decades to reach with the current training facilities.

Way of the Blade (Syr)- Given that it is currently a rather quiet time for her Jane is willing to spend a bit of time tutoring Syr in the very basics of swordsmanship. Given that Jane is both one of the best swordsmen on Avernus (and in the Nine Worlds) and a skilled teacher, she is the best possible teacher for Syr in this art. Given Syr's age it will take years for her to develop any real skills but on Avernus it is better to begin advanced combat training as soon as possible.

Time: 1 year
Chance of Success: 35%
Reward: Syr gains +1 Intrigue, on critical has a chance of gaining a trait
Hidden Watchers- One of the ways in which you can keep a close watch on the Quartok is to install hidden watchers in Malae, both human and technological. This would allow Jane to ensure that the Quartok are what they seem to be and that they are not doing anything dangerous without making it obvious that they are being watched. If detected this would lead to some major diplomatic issues with the Quartok.

She warns you that it would be a major diplomatic issue if her attempts to set up this network is detected
Time: 3 years.

Time: 1 year
Cost: Varied see below.
Reward: Varied see below
Build Psyker Hunter Academies: All- This year Jane has suggested that you build more Psyker Hunter Academies, bringing the total up to one in every city on Avernus. This would massively increase the number of Psyker Hunters that can be trained allowing you to quickly reach the point where you can start sending them off world. Jane estimates that around forty thousand Psyker Hunters are needed for Avernus for maximum effect which would take decades to reach with the current training facilities.
Time: 6 years.

Way of the Blade (Syr)- Given that it is currently a rather quiet time for her Jane is willing to spend a bit of time tutoring Syr in the very basics of swordsmanship. Given that Jane is both one of the best swordsmen on Avernus (and in the Nine Worlds) and a skilled teacher, she is the best possible teacher for Syr in this art. Given Syr's age it will take years for her to develop any real skills but on Avernus it is better to begin advanced combat training as soon as possible.

Social Policy: Decrease Surveillance – This plan involves disabling the surveillance equipment in all public spaces. It would lead to a marked decrease in the number of cultist caught while increasing the general morale of the population.
Cost: Free
Reward: -10% Chance of detecting cultists and an additional -5% to detect inner circle cultists, +1 Civilian Morale.
Social Policy: Greatly Increased Surveillance – This plan involves also putting surveillance equipment in the less personal private locations and using this data to try and catch or track cultists. It would make catching Inner Circle Cultists far easier but would be rather intrusive and moderately expensive.
Cost: 161,000 Thrones, 16,200 Material.
Upkeep per year: 17,400 Thrones, 1,740 Material.
Reward: +5% Chance of detecting cultists and an additional +10% to detect inner circle cultists, -1 Civilian Morale.

Cost: 810,000 Thrones, 81,000 Material.
Upkeep per year: 81,000 Thrones, 8,100 Material.
Reward: +15% Chance of detecting cultists and an additional +20% to detecting inner circle cultists, -2 Civilian Morale.

Build Greater Forge: All – Fabricator-General Britton has put forward a proposal to build a Greater Forge in each of your Forge-Cities. These huge Forges would be able to build massive amounts of advanced weapons and machinery and would over double your production of Advanced Material.

Detailed Survey (Hunter Frigate)- The Hunter Frigate is a variant of the Heavy Gunship that replaces the weapons batteries with a powerful lance. A group of this form of escort would be able to quickly bring down many capital ships and they most likely acted as hunter-killer teams in the larger battle, targeting heavy cruisers and battleships. There are seven intact ships of this class: eight hundred and twenty-five mostly intact, one thousand five hundred half destroyed and three thousand four hundred mostly destroyed. From what Tranth can determine these ships are very similar to the previous class except for the weapons loadout.
Reward: Search the intact and mostly intact Hunter Frigate for archeotech and get more detail on the capabilities of the Hunter Destroyer.
Locked – One out of Two years completed
Detailed Survey (Escort Destroyer)- The Escort Destroyer is an all rounder design, with a mix of fire-power, speed and defences. This class is generally armed with long range weapon batteries and was most likely the cheap, expendable escort that was tasked with engaging enemy escorts. There are fifteen intact ships of this class, one thousand, six hundred and twenty mostly intact, three thousand half destroyed and six thousand nine hundred mostly destroyed. From what Tranth can determine these ships do not have any really new technologies.

Headmaster Ridcully is glad to have begun the research into Psychic Frequencies, saying that it could be the biggest breakthrough in the study of telepathy in his lifetime. Primaris Xavier on the other hand is frustrated by his efforts into Siren Shields, where he is certain that he is one small step from figuring them out. He is however willing to pause in his research for a year in order to do something else.
One Locked Choose One
Research: Psychic Frequencies Part One- Headmaster Ridcully's investigation of the Hive Mind of Congregation Asps found that Psychic Frequencies are a rather important topic. Currently little is known about this field, on Avernus anyway, and Headmaster Ridcully would like to spend a few years investigating them. This will be the first step of a long term project that will greatly increase your understanding of Psychic Powers and the Warp.

Yeah, some of those are big actions... but the amount of time we have to do them in... not great.
well it will be awesome either way

So our only two surviving veteran luitenants are women? our fleet admirality is in our wife's capable hands... quite a lot of women in the high command on avernus

I really want to finally do this with the wife. she has been asking for it for years now. And as a bonus it counts as spending time with the family to do so
I'm also noticing that the turns are coming by a lot faster as well. At this point I imagine the most of the writing comes in from actually typing up all the little stuff such as how many people die, growth rate, psyker success/failuers, etc.
At this point we aren't really doing too many big and exciting things, just general work-work.
We need to go to void school with our wife, shore up that part of our education.

So for Void,
Academy expansion along with expediting the minefield so that we can do the attend academy next year for Freya and us?
Admin would be expand the city.
Intrigue maybe start Syr on the bladesmen path.
Personal spend time and tutor and that leaves a diplo action?

Void-
[X] Expand Naval Academy
[X] Small Minefield: Deiphobe
-[X] Expedite: Small Minefield: Deiphobe
Admin-
[X] Expand City: Mirkwood
Diplo-
[X] Request Information (Jotunheim: Internal Security Apparatus)
-[X] Double Down: Request Information (Jotunheim: Internal Security Apparatus)
Arbites-
[X] Way of the Blade (Syr)
Telpathica
[X] Mentoring
Personal
[X] Spend Time With Family
[X]Tutor Syr (Administration)
This way we have a void action next year when we finish both personal attentions so we can attend the naval academy. That let's us use our personal attention on naval actions and would let us build ships and defenses for our system, or more shipyards.
