I bet it translates into lower amounts of cults and perhaps some bonuses to leading a particular type of solider.
Again lowers the amount of cults and prevents her death in the long run.
Eh? Maybe? I'm not sure.

My gut says "awesome, dude deserves recognition".
Is there some negative here that I am not seeing?
More like, Psyker powers are abilities innate to the psyker. Sorcery is the learned science of how to manipulate warp energy, whether through rituals, symbology, or technology. Technically stuff like Warp engines and Vortex grenades are sorcery, though they don't call them that.
The difference between a psyker and a sorcerer in Warhammer is the same as that between a sorcerer and a wizard in D&D. Psykers do it by instinct, Sorcerers learn to do it through study. Many sorcerers can fake psychic powers pretty well even if they aren't psykers, though there's usually a steep cost.
Not necessarily. The problem with sorcery is that it's knowledge, and can thus be used to infer other, less benign, things. For example the Pentagrammatic ward, which the Grey Knights use to banish Daemons, is basically an inverted Daemon Summoning circle.
It's limited to only Grey Knights because any more corruptible individuals would be able to re-invert it if they fell to Chaos, turning the first signs of Corruption from "mild mutation" to "Daemons Everywhere". So the rest of the Imperium has to make do with the much less effective Hexagrammatic ward.
Not all of it though. There's one neat Sanctic spell that can be used to teleport to any planet the caster has been to before.

[X] Avernus Officers Academy
Haven't read any of the discussion, so I'm voting to send our future leader to leader school. Plus, she wants to.
In more detail, I prefer that she shapes up into someone comfortable with co-ordinating massive military actions from the backlines, rather than someone who yearns to lead the charge herself. Possibly an exaggeration of its impact, but boot camp is for people meant to go into the grinder.

Welcome to the forum, and to this thread in particular! Don't worry, you'd only get tar'd and feathered in broad strokes, with anyone else who voted with you (which would have to be the majority by definition, so...)
Plus, according to my brief read of the previous two pages, it may be a moot point anyway, barring a sudden massive shift in votes. The Officers Academy had over 20 votes at last count.
Of course, It's hardly unheard of for votes to swing back hard if enough people can be encouraged to jump ship, so it isn't guaranteed quite yet. So, vote how you want, and don't make any bets!

I think that it's either:
a) After putting some thought into it, they were persuaded by Elder Haman's dialogue into supporting boot camp.
or
b) They're bandwagoning the Elder Haman brand without thinking about it too much.
@HanEmpire probably falls into the first category, but I suspect the rest of being in the second. Mind you, I'm terribly biased against people who post only there vote, without saying anything else. Makes me think they're only following/copy-pasting the 'smart guy' rather than making their own decisions. Very annoying (especially since I can neither prove, nor dis-prove it).

Welp. That's some serious cash. I'm going to have to spend serious spreadsheet time before I have an idea/plan.
What was Parnell's preferences of the Command Ships again?
EDIT: In order of prefernce, Brute, Line, Grav-Accelerator, Hunter, Grav-Array, Carrier
@durin, how many of each of the escorts does Parnell want?

Off the cuff, selling the Einherjar Brute Command BB and Alexander Line Command BB nets +147,193.5 cred, and paying them to repair the Vajra Grav-Accelerator and Genghis Hunter Command BBs costs -216,930.4. That means owing Vanaheim -69,736 cred, which can be made up pretty quick by selling off all of the half-intact cruisers and mostly-intact Squires (+68,626 Cred). That leaves several entire escort classes untouched and clears the way to start buying or swapping mostly-intact cruisers to reinforce Avernus' fleets.

We likely won't be able to maintain a command battleship for a while due to its upkeep alone. Meanwhile, we'll likely buy up every scrap of exotic material on the market.

But if we buy the Einherjar Brute Command BB and sell the Genghis Class Command BB we get a +14785.
