Don't forget that Klovis wanted a disguised fortress in one of the major systems. He might have built one already considering that defence fortresses were kinda hard to get.

Or not?
No reason to give the Inquisition more military power.
They have investigative rights everywhere in the Trust and when things beyond their personal fighting-strenght happen it is their job to inform the council so the Trust can act together against that threat.
They are not supposed to have the individual power of the old Inquisition, mainly the internal-spying duties and privieges.

Its their main duty now and while some of their other powers such as the ability to authorise exterminatus have been revoked they are still the best body for dealing with things.
I'd give the ramillies just to store prisoners and dangerous artefacts securely.
@Durin I'm wondering about these two parts of the last turn results.
There was only one Chaotic Beta, the Diviner in Dis. Yet Jane killed a Beta Biomancer/Telepath. Was this second Beta a Rouge psyker but not Chaotic?

... maybe that one was killed before it could do anything

This. It was the Beta killed without causing major damage, which is thanks to Jane doing the killing.
On reread I now remember that once upon a time a Beta class psyker, chaotic or otherwise, was a big deal. Now they are barely even a footnote.

No they're still big deals, Jane's just good enough that now we have a chance of dealing with em before they do major damage.

I can't wait until we tell other Human powers about our problems. They'll be whining about how one beta psyker almost destroyed their world. We nod our heads and then complain about the 12 Alphas who almost did us in.

They've been worrying about bigger things for a while.
The three Ork warlords, Daemon world and Necrons.
Our issues are big, but compared to that a few Beta's are not too big.

a chaotic beta out in the wild so to speak, would likely end up either exploding into demons or becoming an extremely terrifying chaos lord. Either of those is something that would be a massive issue for someone who isn't on a fortress world with a lot of their own psyker support.

On another world maybe, here I'd give them a week or two before something eats them and if they explode into daemons remember what happened the last time and that was from giant warp gates.
If by luck they do survive they will last until the Deep One in our area casts its irritated gaze in its general direction and folds space into a pretzel... assuming it doesn't just eat em.

that's exactly my point. On most other worlds a beta or a beta sized warp rift are existential threats, here they are just a typical disaster a city can except to see every few years.

@Durin Inquisitor Varquez is known for his strong disdain for planetary law enforcement entities.
1) How does he treat Jane and the Avernite Arbites?
2) Do we know if his views have mellowed out since the Trust's founding?
3) How does Klovis-Ultan rate the Trust's regional Intelligence agencies, particularly Alfheim?

Turn Eighty-Eight
One Hundred and Sixty-six years since the Founding of Avernus
The last five years have been rather eventful, both for Avernus and the Imperial Trust as a whole. To start with there was Garkill's rather unsuccessful invasion of Avernus which ended in him dying along with his fleet to previously unknown orbital defence stations, probably creations of the Old Ones. Then there was the counter attack which has taken three of the worlds once claimed by Garkill and spent the last five four years fortifying them, as well as devastating the orbital infrastructure of the remaining five worlds. On Avernus there was Beta-level Diviner who led High Grandmaster Ridcully on a chase lasting over a year during which tens of millions were killed by the Diviners mechanisms, worryingly during this period the number of major psykers found on Avernus plummeted. Then there was the doppelganger which tried to kill Arbitrator Jane Oakheart, forcing her to push far beyond her limts in order to triumph.
General Schwarz has recently returned to Avernus with the expeditionary fore that he led. Now that he has returned he would like to wipe out the last Ork strongholds and then focus on rebuilding the army, which has suffered significant damage in recent years, especially among the Helguard. General Schwarz has proposed two new projects to follow these goals, one to increase your recruitment rate and one to add champions to your command squads.
Admiral Parnell has recently returned to Avernus with the barely damaged Avernite Fleet, which will no longer be needed to defend the recently captured worlds now that some orbital defences have been put in place. He tells you that over the last four years the Avernite fleet has played a major part in the destruction of all of the orbital industry in what was once Garkill's Domain, reducing the value of the remaining worlds to the other Ork Overlords.
Despite the continuing deficit in Thrones Edvin remains confident in the strength of the Avernite economy, though has has proposed a few projects that will strengthen it. These projects are the expansion of the underground rail network to both Duat and The Azure Islands, though the latter choice involves digging worryingly deep. One thing that Edvin mentions is that once the current projects finish your promethium and metal surpluses will sky-rocket, allowing you to trade even more to the rest of the Imperial Trust.
Chief Administrator Edvin Dieuwer gains trait Veteran (+2C)- Edvin Dieuwer has fought in more life or death struggles then many Imperial Guard Veterans, experience that has helped hone his already good combat skills.
Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan informs you that an agreement has been made by the lower council for the worlds conquered in the recent campaign to remain in Imperial Trust control for the next decade until the High council Meeting. This time will be used o bring their defences up to a sufficient level and wipe out the remaining Ork infestations.
Late last year Jane had her closest brush with death so far on Avernus when she came across what was either the Changeling or a new type of Avernite creature. The creature was disguised as one of her students when she revived a warning from High Grandmaster Ridcully. After receiving the warning she challenged the creature disguised as her student only to find it transformed into a copy of her. She describes the following fight as going up against someone with all of your skills while being faster, stronger, tireless and able to regenerate from fatal wounds. The fight pushed her beyond what she though were her limits multiple times until she finally pulled off an impossible move and decapitated her doppelganger, which then disappeared. After reporting her encounter both Saint Lin, High Grandmaster Ridcully and Grandmaster Jameson were called in to confirm her identity with help from the Black Crystal Jewellery. Jane's skill with the sword has sky-rocketed after this event and she has developed the ability to somehow cut though Warp effects.
Jane upgrades trait Grandmaster of the Blade (+3M, +1D, +1I, +8C, +80 to melee combat rolls)- to Paragon of the Blade (+5M, +2D, +2I, +12C, +80 to melee combat rolls) -Arbitrator Jane Oakheart has honed her talents with the blade against everything that the rogue psykers of Avernus can throw at her, and the daemons that they often summon as well as some of the most deadly wildlife that Avernus can produce. Combined with her drive to improve herself and her great will she has managed to push her skills beyond superhuman into the real of the impossible.
Jane combines traits True Mastery Comes from Teaching (+1C, +10 to melee combat rolls, +10 to attempts to teach Blade Master related traits) and Skilled Teacher (+3L, +3D, +2C, +20 to melee related rolls, +20 to rolls to teach, students more likely to get useful traits) into Mentor ( +20 to rolls to teach which is doubled for blade related skills, students more likely to get useful traits)- Jane is an incredible mentor, able to bring out the best of her students, allowing a surprising number of them to reach mastery themselves.
Jane gains Combat Paragon Trait Terror of the Damned (can cut Warp effects with blade, permanently wounds and kills demons, inflicts terror to Chaos)- After a lifetime of hunting down and killing psykers and daemons Jane Oakheart has somehow developed the ability to cut the Warp itself with her blade. This allows her to do anything from cutting down psychic powers to permanently wounding and even killing daemons.
Jane gains Swordsmanship Paragon Trait The Inevitable (can dodge anything totally, kills anything that isn't a paragon or colossus on crit, x50 damage on crit,, double damage)- Jane Oakheart is the creator and paragon of the Oakheart style of swordsmanship, which emphases quick kills and dodging incoming attacks. She has developed these skills to the point where she can kill almost anything with a single blow when given a good enough opportunity and can dodge attacks that should be impossible to dodge.
According to Fabricator-General Scott there is currently a fierce debate in the Adeptus Mechanicus between those who want to study the Old Ones technology that was recently revealed and those who want to destroy it. She has not taken sides in this argument instead make the eminently reasonable point that until you find the technology both ideas are impossible and it does not look like the Defence Stations are going to be found.
Saint Lin has continued to spend what time he could in the orphanages of Avernus, though the threat that the Changer of Ways has been plotting against Avernus means that he is always ready to be deployed on a moments notice. He has also been spending some time beating down those factions of the Church that want to aggressively spread the New Imperial Truth to the galaxy, which would paint a massive target on Avernus' head when the Emperor's Instructions where to survive, not spread his word.
Currently High Grandmaster Ridcully is as worked up as you have ever seen him, telling you that the missing major psykers are part of a threat to Avernus larger then any he has seen since the First Daemonic Incursion. He demands permission to investigate these matters, far more forceful then he has ever been with you. Other then Ridcully's predictions the main activity in the Adeptus Astra Telepathica is the founding of the Psyker Quarters, which now house a full fifth of the Psykers of Avernus.
High Grandmaster Ridcully combines traits Learned (+4L, +1 Control), Respected Scholar (+4L) and Cult Hunter (+2I, +1P, +1 Control) into trait Seeker of Knowledge (+2I, +10L, +1P, +1 Control)- High Grandmaster Ridcully has spent much time gathering knowledge of both the Warp and the galaxy in general.
Grandmaster Jameson gains trait Leader (+1M, +2A)- In her time as the leader of the Central Department Tamia Jameson has developed her leadership skills by a good amount.
You are very relieved that Syr came back from the recent campaign alive and mostly intact, though the promotion is not exactly unexpected. However it does open the possibility that Syr could be in a position to take a place as one of the Marshals of Avernus if there is an opening in a few decades. While it may be seen as favouritism as long as Syr has thoroughly proven herself as a Lieutenant-General there will be few complaints.

Choose Three
One Five years, One Four years, One One year
Expand Military: PDF- General Schwarz has proposed over doubling the size of the Avernite military, to over five percent of the population. This will take a great deal of time an resources but the massive increase in your combat capacity should be worth it. He has split this massive project into three separate projects in order to allow for a greater proportion of his focus to be directed where it is most needed. The PDF make up by far the largest proportion of your military but are not as well equipped, making them one of the longer but cheaper projects.
Time: 16 years.
Cost: 404,900,000 Thrones, 97,420,000 Material, 3,408,000 Promethium, 4,118,000 Advanced Material.
Upkeep per year: 29,420,006 Thrones, 6,805,087 Material, 1,703,930 Promethium, 113,147 Advanced Material.
Reward: 19,115 PDF Regiments
Locked – Fifteen out of Sixteen years completed
Recruit- Over twenty-five million Avernite soldiers were killed in Waaagh Garkill, over five percent of your military. Marshal Richards tells you that it will take six years to find and train replacements for these soldiers. She also advises you to begin recruiting immediately, as the Imperial Trust is likely to be in near constant war for the foreseeable future and it would be best to have your military at full strength.
Time: 6 years.
Cost: 741,500,000 Thrones, 67,020,000 Material, 27,790,000 Promethium, 7,000,000 Advanced Material, 5,654 Exotic Material.
Reward: replace forces lost in the recent Waaagh
Locked -Two out of Six years completed
Expand training facilities- While Avernus' constant recruitment and training facilities were more then sufficient for the time you spent trapped in the Warp storm it looks like they will not be enough for the coming years. As such General Schwarz has proposed expanding your training facilities and recruitment so that you can double recruitment rate. This will take almost a decade but the increase in recruitment will be more then worth the effort.
Time: 9 years.
Cost: 146,200,000 Thrones, 34,050,000 Material, 34,050,000 Metal, 6,608,000 Promethium, 4,648 Advanced Material.
Upkeep per year: 14,620,000 Thrones, 3,808,000 Material, 3,450,000 Metal, 177,000 Promethium, 232 Advanced Material.
Reward: increase size of training facilities, double recruitment rate
Lessons Learned: Assault- Your forces gained a good deal of experience with the aggressive side of siege warfare in the recent years. General Schwarz tells you that if she focuses on codifying the gathered knowledge he could notably improve your training in siege warfare.
Time: 1 year.
Cost: 4,000,000 Thrones, 400,000 Material, 20,000 Promethium.
Reward: +5 to all rolls when attacking in siege and +3 to combat rolls.
Champions- Among the Avernite army there are many soldiers whose skills stand out from their fellows but lack the leadership ability for promotion. General Schwarz has prosed adding the position of Champion to command squads in order to both provide a path of promotion for these soldiers and to allow them better equipment, often including more advanced power armour types for the Helguard.
Time: 10 years
Cost: 253,500,000 Thrones, 42,820,000 Material, 19,710,000 Advanced Material, 29,000 Exotic Material.
Upkeep per year: 23,290,000 Thrones, 3,564,000 Material, 746,400 Advanced Material, 1,450 Exotic Material.
Reward: add 251 Champions to every infantry regiment, each champion is given better equipment, +5 to all combat rolls by infantry
Ork Infestation: Siege (strongholds)- There are currently eleven Ork strongholds on Avernus, each with a garrison ranging from the hundreds of millions to over two billion. Marshal Richards suggests besieging some or all of them, trapping the Orks inside and weakening the defences for a later assault.
Time: 1 year (take multiple times to continue)
Chance of Success: 60% (-5% for every stronghold after the first)
Cost: 160,000,000 Thrones, 80,000,000 Material, 16,000,000 Promethium, 8,300 Advanced Material per stronghold besieged
Reward: increases military casualties, kills Orks, weakens defences of target strongholds
Ork Infestation: Assault (strongholds)- There are currently eleven Ork strongholds on Avernus, each with a garrison ranging from the hundreds of millions to over two billion. You will need to eventually destroy these strongholds. One way to do this is by taking advantage f your superior troops, technology and coordination to assault the strongholds. Given that the Orks will be defending fortifications taking strongholds will not be easy and it would be best to concentrate on assaulting only a few strongholds a year and to soften them up first.
Time: 1 year (take multiple times)
Chance of Success: 40% (-10% for every stronghold after the first)
Cost: 160,000,000 Thrones, 80,000,000 Material, 16,000,000 Promethium, 8,300 Advanced Material per stronghold besieged
Reward: significantly, increases military casualties, takes target strongholds and kill Orks inside them
Phase Infantry Battalions: Planning- In recent years the number of Phase-Tigers in the pens in Lindon has reached a high enough number that training some of them for war and creating specialised Phase Infantry Battalions is practical. To begin with Xavier, the Phase-Tigers and several of General Schwarz' best officers will need to sit down and decide how to build and train these forces.
Time: 5 years
Cost: 390,000,000 Thrones, 78,000,000 Material, 7,900,000 Promethium, 850,000 Advanced Material, 950 Exotic Material.
Reward: Force Composition for Phase Infantry Battalions
Jetbikes: Planning- One of the new technologies found by Archmagos Tranth is designs for a set of advanced jetbikes with many similarities to the Eldar designs. General Schwarz would like to mount his Helguard Rough Riders on these Jetbikes and will need to spend a few years detemining how to do this.
Time: 3 years
Cost: 44,000,000 Thrones, 8,800,000 Material, 880,000 Promethium, 85,000 Advanced Material.
Reward: Force Composition for Jetbike Regiments
Land Raider Power Helguard Regiment- One of the possible ways to use the Land Raider designs that you on have is to equip a single regiment of Mechanised Helguard with Land Raider Transports. This would be expensive, costing several million Thrones, but would give the selected regiment enough firepower to match multiple Armour Regiments and some of the toughest transports imaginable.
Time: 5 years
Cost: 1,984,000 Thrones, 311,700 Material, 49,280 Promethium, 150,500 Advanced Material, 3,059 Exotic Material.
Upkeep per year: 364,009 Thrones, 59,609 Material, 5,509 Promethium, 29,469 Advanced Material, 612 Exotic Material.
Reward: 1 Regiment of Mechanised Power Helguard replace all transports with Land Raiders, 1,4000 Hunred Land Raiders in total
Readiness Training- General Drago suggests putting his troops though combat readiness training in order to ensure that they are fully prepared if another invasion occurs. While effective this training will not have any long term effects and will need to be redone every decade. General Drago does not consider this to be urgent.
Time: 1 year.
Chance of Success: 60% (each success reduces chance of success by 5%, this recovers at a rate of one per two years)
Cost: 12,200,000 Thrones, 1,220,000 Material, 122,000 Promethium, 167 Advanced Material
Reward: +5 to all combat rolls for regular forces the next decade, can be taken multiple times
Militia Readiness Training- General Schwarz suggests putting the militia though combat readiness training in order to ensure that they are fully prepared for the incoming invasion. This would potentially provide a massive boost to your total combat power but given that you want to avoid using the militia in combat as much as possible how much effect thi will actually have is unknown.
Time: 1 year.
Chance of Success: 60% (each success reduces chance of success by 5%, this recovers at a rate of one per two years)
Cost: 880,000,000 Thrones, 88,000,000 Material, 8,800,000 Promethium, 8,500 Advanced Material
Reward: +5 to all combat rolls for militia the next decade, can be taken multiple times, -1% city productivity per attempt (for the turn)
Specialist Grenadiers (Write In): Planning- Now that you have the Elite Training Facilities General Drago would like to create elite, specialist units that take advantage of the unique skills that each region of Avernus instils in its soldiers. General Drago does not consider this to be urgent.
Time: 1 year.
Chance of Success: Variable
Cost: 7,200,000 Thrones, 14,400 Material, 1,440 Promethium, 860 Advanced Material.
Reward: Get Composition of Chosen Elite Unit. Put forward a write-in of a unit type and I will tell you if it it viable and how easy it will be (good omake will make it easier).

Admiral Parnell has recently returned to Avernus with the barely damaged Avernite Fleet, which will no longer be needed to defend the recently captured worlds now that some orbital defences have been put in place. He tells you that over the last four years the Avernite fleet has played a major part in the destruction of all of the orbital industry in what was once Garkill's Domain, reducing the value of the remaining worlds to the other Ork Overlords.

Two Five years, One One year
Expand Shipyards: Large- Now that you have a huge shipyard it is possible to build large shipyards whole. This would increase the rate at which you can build capital ships and maintain anything short of battleships more easily. Admiral Parnell advices you to focus on this until you have all four large shipyards that you plan on constructing.
Time: 18 years. (can be taken twice)

Time: 1 year.
Cost: 40,000,000 Thrones, 4,000,000 Material, 200,000 Promethium.
Reward: +5 to all rolls when attacking orbital defences and +3 to combat rolls.
Stealth Attack Craft- After seeing the use of the stealth Attack Craft by the Vanir Navy Admiral Parnell has seen how useful they could be for the Avernite Navy due to their ability for first strikes. Even with some assistance from Vanaheim it will take some time to train up your first crews due to how different their training needs to be from a normal attack craft. Admiral Parnell would prefer to have around a third of your attack craft consist of stealth variants, due to the fact that they are not as useful in an open battle.

Bombardment- There are currently eleven Ork strongholds on Avernus, each with a garrison ranging from the hundreds of millions to over two billion. Admiral Parnell suggests using your defence cruisers to conduct a sustained medium intensity bombardment on them. This should kill a decent number of Orks and damage the fortifications, making future assaults easier.
Time: 1 year (take multiple times to continue)

Construct Defence Cruisers and Escorts- Admiral Parnell has put forward several suggestions of what to make next with your shipyards. The final option would be to repair even more Defence Cruisers and build some more Monitors, strengthening Avernus' Void defences but not helping the rest of the Imperial Trust. Given the fact that Avernus is one of the better defended systems in the Imperial Trust Admiral Parnell does not believe this to be necessary for the moment.

Build Advanced Orbital Defence Stations- Now that you have the designs Admiral Parnell strongly advises that you build some Advanced Orbital Defence Stations. While he will want thirty-six in total he tells you that six is the most that his workers can work on at the moment, so he would prefer to build six at a time. Given the sheer defensive utility of these stations you see no reason to disagree with Admiral Parnell on their importance.

Despite the continuing deficit in Thrones Edvin remains confident in the strength of the Avernite economy, though has has proposed a few projects that will strengthen it. These projects are the expansion of the underground rail network to both Duat and The Azure Islands, though the latter choice involves digging worryingly deep. One thing that Edvin mentions is that once the current projects finish your promethium and metal surpluses will sky-rocket, allowing you to trade even more to the rest of the Imperial Trust.
Chief Administrator Edvin Dieuwer gains trait Veteran (+2C)- Edvin Dieuwer has fought in more life or death struggles then many Imperial Guard Veterans, experience that has helped hone his already good combat skills.

Late last year Jane had her closest brush with death so far on Avernus when she came across what was either the Changeling or a new type of Avernite creature. The creature was disguised as one of her students when she revived a warning from High Grandmaster Ridcully. After receiving the warning she challenged the creature disguised as her student only to find it transformed into a copy of her. She describes the following fight as going up against someone with all of your skills while being faster, stronger, tireless and able to regenerate from fatal wounds. The fight pushed her beyond what she though were her limits multiple times until she finally pulled off an impossible move and decapitated her doppelganger, which then disappeared. After reporting her encounter both Saint Lin, High Grandmaster Ridcully and Grandmaster Jameson were called in to confirm her identity with help from the Black Crystal Jewellery. Jane's skill with the sword has sky-rocketed after this event and she has developed the ability to somehow cut though Warp effects.
Jane upgrades trait Grandmaster of the Blade (+3M, +1D, +1I, +8C, +80 to melee combat rolls)- to Paragon of the Blade (+5M, +2D, +2I, +12C, +80 to melee combat rolls) -Arbitrator Jane Oakheart has honed her talents with the blade against everything that the rogue psykers of Avernus can throw at her, and the daemons that they often summon as well as some of the most deadly wildlife that Avernus can produce. Combined with her drive to improve herself and her great will she has managed to push her skills beyond superhuman into the real of the impossible.
Jane combines traits True Mastery Comes from Teaching (+1C, +10 to melee combat rolls, +10 to attempts to teach Blade Master related traits) and Skilled Teacher (+3L, +3D, +2C, +20 to melee related rolls, +20 to rolls to teach, students more likely to get useful traits) into Mentor ( +20 to rolls to teach which is doubled for blade related skills, students more likely to get useful traits)- Jane is an incredible mentor, able to bring out the best of her students, allowing a surprising number of them to reach mastery themselves.
Jane gains Combat Paragon Trait Terror of the Damned (can cut Warp effects with blade, permanently wounds and kills demons, inflicts terror to Chaos)- After a lifetime of hunting down and killing psykers and daemons Jane Oakheart has somehow developed the ability to cut the Warp itself with her blade. This allows her to do anything from cutting down psychic powers to permanently wounding and even killing daemons.
Jane gains Swordsmanship Paragon Trait The Inevitable (can dodge anything totally, kills anything that isn't a paragon or colossus on crit, x50 damage on crit,, double damage)- Jane Oakheart is the creator and paragon of the Oakheart style of swordsmanship, which emphases quick kills and dodging incoming attacks. She has developed these skills to the point where she can kill almost anything with a single blow when given a good enough opportunity and can dodge attacks that should be impossible to dodge.

Oakheart School of Swordsmanship- Jane Oakheart is one of the the best swordsman in the Imperial Trust, a position she earned on sheer skill and experience. She has recently suggested establishing a School of Swordsmanship in Dis where her self-created style is taught to Avernite swordsmen. This would take some time as she will not be able to teach full time, so will want to train half a dozen instructors to a high enough level that she is confident that they will be able to teach her style. Given that this style was honed against rogue psykers this will prove to be a particular boon to the Psyker and Witch Hunters whose duty it is to hunt them down.

Where are they?- The number of major Psykers found on Avernus plummeted over the last five years, while the number of minor psykers stayed the same. Jane strongly suspects that this means that almost half of the psykers that would have been found over the last five years are still alive and active somewhere. Given the existence of the Beta-level Diviner affiliated with the Changer of Ways and the doppelganger that may have been the Changeling which almost killed her she suspects that the Changer of Ways is running a plot on Avernus of some type. She is willing to delay the Oakheart School of Swordsmanship

Cost: 6,100,000 Thrones.
Reward: +5 to rolls to deal with Chaos Psykers for each success, can be taken multiple times

If detected this would lead to some major diplomatic issues with the Quartok.

According to Fabricator-General Scott there is currently a fierce debate in the Adeptus Mechanicus between those who want to study the Old Ones technology that was recently revealed and those who want to destroy it. She has not taken sides in this argument instead make the eminently reasonable point that until you find the technology both ideas are impossible and it does not look like the Defence Stations are going to be found.

Old Ones Defence Stations- Recently over a dozen incredibly powerful defence stations appeared in orbit of Avernus for a short time. Due to their power and the technology they displayed, as well as several theories a bout the nature of Avernus it has been determined that these defence stations are almost certainly creations of the near mythical Old Ones. Fabricator-General Britton has already tasked Archmagos Tranth to spend the next half decade doing everything he can to investigate them.

Examine: Graviton Weapons: Part Two- The Graviton Weapons are The Well of Urd's most deadly weapons, able to wipe out the crews of any unshielded warship in a disturbingly short period of time. Archmagos Tranth believes that with enough work he may be able to figure out how to reproduce them, giving your largest warships a deadly new weapon and putting you one step closer to figuring out how the Gravatic Array functions.

Reverse Engineer Component: Hyper Plasma Reactor: Part Three- Now that he knows how to replicate the Hyper Plasma Reactor Archmagos Tranth hopes that he can figure out how to resize it for use in other ships and settings. Given the sheer complexity and half understood nature of the Hyper Plasma Reactor this will be a long and very expansive project, with a large chance of failure. However a success will allow for the construction of Hyper Plasma Reactors in a whole new range of warships, which would allow you to significantly increase the shields, engines and firepower of portions of your fleet in exchange for making them more fragile. According to Admiral Parnell that trade off would be a massive boon to fast, agile fleets such as Vanaheim's.

Reward: learn how to make more of The Well of Urd Kinetic Weapons.
Examine: Goliath Class Factory Ship: Part Two- Currently a single Goliath Factory Ship is in the Avernus system with no way to make more.

Very Advanced Reactors: Stable- Archmagos Veneratus Tranth believes that he could redesign the stable reactors designs found in the datacores using the knowledge he gained from reverse engineering The Well of Urd's reactors. While this would allow you to get half again as much output while maintaining the stability it is also an act that is right on the edge of heretical.

Reverse Engineer Component: Hyper Plasma Reactor: Part Three- Now that he knows how to replicate the Hyper Plasma Reactor Archmagos Tranth hopes that he can figure out how to resize it for use in other ships and settings. Given the sheer complexity and half understood nature of the Hyper Plasma Reactor this will be a long and very expansive project, with a large chance of failure. However a success will allow for the construction of Hyper Plasma Reactors in a whole new range of warships, which would allow you to significantly increase the shields, engines and firepower of portions of your fleet in exchange for making them more fragile. According to Admiral Parnell that trade off would be a massive boon to fast, agile fleets such as Vanaheim's.

Cost: 254,000 Thrones, 5,400 Advanced Material, 1,210 Exotic Material, 12.7 Relic Material.
Upkeep per year: Varies
Reward: All Primaris Psykers equipped with Masterwork Force Weapons, increase force weapon bonus to +100
Simple Anti-Pyker Wards: SAM Batteries- Now that the Artisans of Nogrod are ready it is time to start adding wards to some of your key buildings and defences. One of the key defences are the SAM batteries that provide long ranged AA to your cities. Warding them will reduce the chance that an enemy psyker will be able to disable them at a key time while still being relatively cheap.
Time: 2 years.
Cost: 392,000 Thrones, 18,000 Advanced Material.
Upkeep per year: 19,600 Thrones, 900 Advanced Material

Advanced Wards: Fólkvangr- Now that the Artisans of Nogrod are ready it is time to start adding wards to some of your key buildings and defences. One option is to add advanced wards to the Fólkvangr, your flagship and by far the most powerful ship in the Avenite Navy. This will both make telaport attacks onto the ship far harder and make it harder for hostile psykers or daemons to effect the ship, as well as slightly reducing the level of danger in Warp travel.
Time: 5 years.
Cost: 9,470,000 Thrones, 544,000 Advanced Material, 6,080 Exotic Material.
Upkeep per year: 474,000 Thrones, 27,200 Advanced Material, 304 Exotic Material

Time: 8 years.
Cost: 21,300,000 Thrones, 979,000 Advanced Material, 10,940 Exotic Material.
Upkeep per year: 1,010,000 Thrones, 49,000 Advanced Material, 547 Exotic Material

Psychic Materials: Wildlife- There are some materials that channels psychic energies better then others, or in certain ways. Given the sheer variety of psychic wildlife of differing sorts on Avernus Grandmaster Jameson believes that at least some of them will be useful in this manner. She will only be able to examine a single type of creatures at a time, so will take quite some time to examine everything that Avernus has to offer.
Time: 1 year
Cost: 4,000,000 Thrones, 400,000 Material, 4,250 Advanced Materials.
Reward: Determine if any part of selected species is useful as a psychic conductor.
Songs of War- Given how useful Songweaving is for large psychic choirs Priamris Jameson suggests training a few Choirs of Battle psykers in its use and composing some powers for combat. This will take some time but the reward of five large choirs trained in songweaving could be enough to change the course of entire campaigns.
Time: 10 years
Cost: 400,000,000 Thrones, 42,500 Advanced Material, 95 Exotic Material.
Reward: 5 Songweaving Choirs formed, several powers composed for each choir
Research: Destructive Frequencies- Headmaster Ridcully and Primaris Jameson have found that as well as some frequencies strengthening each other there are some frequents that weaken others. They would like to spend a few years confirming their theories on these frequencies.
Time: 2 years (takes both Ridcully and Tamia's actions)
Chance of Success: 50% (uses average of learning)
Cost: 39,000,000 Thrones, 390,000 Material, 850 Advanced Material, 95 Exotic Material.
Reward: Information on how destructive Psychic Frequencies function
Research: Neo-Astropathic Choirs- Headmaster Ridcully believes the recent discoveries he and Tamia have made will allow for the formation of Neo-Astropathic Choirs, which will massively boost the range of your Neo-Astropaths. He plans on using a combination of Songweaving, what has been found about resonating frequencies and everything he knows about psychic frequencies to do this.
Time: 7 years (takes both Ridcully and Tamia's actions)
Chance of Success: 10% (uses average of learning)
Cost: 390,000,000 Thrones, 3,900,000 Material, 8,509 Advanced Material, 959 Exotic Material.
Reward: Allows the formation of Neo-Astropathic Choirs.
Battle Preparations- It is highly likely that you will find yourself in a war as soon as the Warpstorm ends and Primaris Xavier has suggested putting the Battle Psykers though last minute training in preparation. While this will have no long term effect in the short term it will hone the edge of their psykers abilities.
Time: 1 year
Chance of Success: 40% (uses Martial, each success reduces chance of success by 5%, this recovers at a rate of one per two years)
Cost: 22,000,000 Thrones, 11,000 Material, 1,100 Promethium, 10,625 Advanced Material, 116 Exotic Material.
Reward: +5 to all Battle Psyker Rolls for the next decade
Honing an Edge- It is highly likely that you will find yourself in a war as soon as the Warpstorm so it might be a good idea for the heroic Psykers of Avernus to focus on preparing themselves. While normally the time just before a war is not a good time for military forces leadership to spend a year meditating and training themselves when the leader is as powerful a weapons as a heroic psyker it becomes a good option.
Time: 1 year
Chance of Success: 40% (uses Control, each success reduces chance of success by 5%, this recovers at a rate of one per two years)
Cost: Free
Reward: +10 to all battle rolls by Heroic Psyker who takes the action for the next decade
Research: Immaterial Resonance- One of the most intriguing discoveries of Headmaster Ridcully and Primaris Jameson is that some patterns in the Materium resonate with the Immaterium effecting it. This is likely the bases of runes and some rituals, both Chaotic and non-Chaotic. Headmaster Ridcully would like to spend a decade studying it. He can not promise any useful results even if he is successful but given that this is a possible path to several major breakthroughs he thinks it is worth the risk.
Time: 10 years (must be taken by Ridcully)
Chance of Success: 20% (uses learning)
Cost: 39,000,000 Thrones, 390,000 Material, 850 Advanced Material, 95 Exotic Material.
Reward: Information on how some things in the Materium resonate with the Immaterium
Research: Power Melody Composition- The recent joint research project between Headmaster Ridcully and Primaris Jameson made several major discoveries, one of which is that the closer the melody of songweaving matches the required frequencies of a power the more effective the power is. While the exact mechanisms of this increase are as yet not understood Primaris Jameson thinks that she will be able to figure out how to compose melodies that match the powers used.
Time: 7 years
Chance of Success: 40% (uses learning)
Cost: 39,000,000 Thrones, 390,000 Material, 850 Advanced Material, 95 Exotic Material.
Reward: Primaris Jameson figures out how to compose a melody that matches the power better.
Mentoring: Beta- Given the high rate of failure for the more powerful psykers Headmaster Ridcully would like to have one of his best psykers mentor the next Beta-level in the year leading up to his trails. This will hopefully be enough to increase his chance of passing by a significant degree.
Time: 1 year. (can be taken once)
Chance of Success: 50%
Cost: Free
Reward: each point of success increases chance of the Beta-level psyker passing the trails by 1%
Mentoring: Gammas-Given the high rate of failure for the more powerful psykers Headmaster Ridcully has suggested having one of his best psykers mentor the next Gamma-levels in the year leading up to his trails. This will hopefully be enough to increase his chance of passing by a significant degree.
Time: 1 year. (can be taken once)
Chance of Success: 50%
Cost: Free
Reward: each 20 points of success increases chance of each Gamma-level psyker passing the trails by 1%
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
Three Five years
Where are they?- The number of major Psykers found on Avernus plummeted over the last five years, while the number of minor psykers stayed the same. Ridcully is convinced that this is a disaster waiting to happen, though he can not confirm why. He demands permission to devote all of his time to trying to uncover this plot, which until recently was hidden by the actions of his recent opponent, either intentionally or not.
Time: 1 year (can be repeated)
Chance of Success: Unknown
Cost: 4,000,000 Thrones
Reward: Information on what happened to the missing major Psykers
Divination: Attacks- Headmaster Ridcully could spend some time attempting to predict any incoming attacks on the Imperial Trust.

You are very relieved that Syr came back from the recent campaign alive and mostly intact, though the promotion is not exactly unexpected. However it does open the possibility that Syr could be in a position to take a place as one of the Marshals of Avernus if there is an opening in a few decades. While it may be seen as favouritism as long as Syr has thoroughly proven herself as a Lieutenant-General there will be few complaints.

1. hostility at first and now he seems to treat her like an Inquisitor, there is actually a few rumours going around that she is one
2. a bit due to repeated displays of competance
3. 1st: Niflheim and Muspelheim - I am sure that have Intelligence agencies but can't find any proof
2nd: Avernus- It seems that the close monitoring of the entire planet for cultists makes an incredible counter intelligence agency, though offworld Avernite intelligence is merely good
3rd: Vanaheim- the high level of political intrigue results in a large number of experienced spies
4th: Jotunheim- well trained and motivated spies but have the same problem that Averites do with starting out
Other: Asgard, Alfheim Midgard and Svartalfheim have few intelligence agencies worth the name externally and only decent internal agents.

So may I suggest post poning the Oakhart school of swordsmanship for this entire turn so that we can go all in on Ridcully and Jane finding the missing psykers to prevent another daemon invasion?

I've got 99 quests, I've finished one
Well we're obviously taking all the 'hunt the missing psykers' options.

You know, looking at the Governer's stats, I hope he gets a Paragon Combat trait to go with his Martial trait. We're only a few points away, and I have no doubt it would be as wonderfully bullshit as Jane's is.
@Durin, is that new trait for Ridiculy the reward for the omakes, or something else?
