Dawm it we get a windfall and still can't do titans. So these turn we either go with Tranth do the factory ship or macro cannon upgrade. Both be useful but the factory ship provides better logistics for the coming wars.
 
Do we have a table of the power outputs of the various reactor designs?

I'm thinking grav accellerator batteries and nova plus one of the reactors. I'd love to have very advanced overclock reactors for torpedoes.
 
Well we can do one of the Nova upgrades next turn and replace it with Sheer (they both take two years) and we need to get Jacob his sword.

I just want to have Ridcully on hand to do see em for max boni.


Oh...

@Durin
1. Is it because the code is too long/complicated for Ridcully to see it in it's entirety? (Or the more obvious answer is there be goodies on em that you don't want us cheating to get :D)
2. How does Ridcully rate his chances at diverting the Waargh towards Valinor ATM?


Oh good now to capitalise on it.

Though I get the feeling this is why you didn't want us to get our mitts on the ruins :p.
1. yes it is
2. bad, the Waaagh is coming from the North and Valinor is in the South
 
Current Mechanicus Unrest 3/10
10/10 guarantees civil war

Vanaheim - 11% support, 40% opposition
Midgard - 18% support, 5% opposition
Avernus - 63% support, 4% opposition
Alfheim - 23% support, 35% opposition
Asgard- 28% support, 13% opposition

Military - 27% support, 66% opposition
Titan Legions - 5% support, 4% opposition
Explorator -97% support, 3% opposition
Biologis - 85% support, 12% opposition
 
So only Vanaheim and Alfheim have a conservative majority, military support is still a minority but that has still shot up, we got the biologis and exploritator, I'd bet on us getting strong support from the titan legions if we repair and upgrade the Sanctus.

The reformation is looking good right now.

The galaxy fell to shit mind but the reformation is on track.
 
Here's the previous numbers for comparison

Vanaheim - 10% support, 36% opposition
Midgard - 3% support, 3% opposition
Avernus - 50% support, 3% opposition
Alfheim - 20% support, 30% opposition
Asgard- 20% support, 10% opposition

Military - 15% support, 65% opposition
Titan Legions - 3% support, 3% opposition
Explorator -90% support, 3% opposition
Biologis - 75% support, 10% opposition

That did some really weird things to the numbers. Over all net gain, but looks like a lot of the neutrals are choosing sides.
 
Turn One Hundred and Three
Holy early update, Batman!
Order of Omens has warned you that an Ork Waaagh is approaching the Imperial Trust from the north.
:o
And you know what that means?
VALINOR IS COMING
That Crusade fleet just jumped up in priority for Divination.
Well, at least Order of Omens is finally paying off.
Currently you are preparing to leave Avernus in order to travel to Midgard for an emergency High Council Meeting
Exactly what I've been belly-aching for. So there is that, too.
Signe gains trait Politician
Oh. Uh. Wow. ಠ_ಠ
Train Master Psyker Hunters
Yes, we need this.
Upkeep per year: 3,700,000 Thrones, 60,000 Material, 11,000 Promethium, 140,000 Advanced Material, 25,000 Exotic material, 2.5 Relic Material
:cry: Goodbye Relic Materials... Hello crushing Svartalfheim debt.

At least he's learning.
Also my god the time reduced for the admech actions...Ahhhhh.
I thought something was off. Nice.
If we have space I kinda want to do Sanctus now, the times have been cut in half (it takes 3 years for Tranth to Examine, and 6 for the repair and upgrade) and we now have capital to do it.
I'd bet on us getting strong support from the titan legions if we repair and upgrade the Sanctus.
You really think that's what's important now? Or that we'll have six years? More importantly, do you really think now is the time to undermine morale and bring Unrest in the House of Mechanicus?
Well, I think the trade talks are a shoe-in, Thrones alone, plus THAT BONUS?
What are you talking abo- oh, the Mycenid, right. Sure. Yes.
How come our throne income took a huge dive compared to last turn (10B compared to 36B)? The only large project finished last turn seems to be CotO and its upkeep is more than covered by Midgard trade and bonus throne income from crit economic focus.
Maybe this?
just something you should know
it costs 1,000 Thrones to make 1 Advanced Material
it costs 10,000 Thrones to make 1 Exotic Material
it costs 1,000,000 Thrones to make 1 Relic Material

yes they are
@Durin

1. Does Scott think that doing actions that will increase unrest will improve or damage the position of the progressive faction?
it depends on the action and its results, she does tell you that it will encourage more people to choose sides
 
Spoiler: Telekinesis
Like many of the psychic disciplines there are several ways to conceptualize Telekinesis. The most common view Telekinesis in the Imperial Trust is as the manipulation of matter and kinetic force. As such many Telekinetics end up becoming Artisans.

There are two common forms of Telekinesis and several rarer forms.

First is Telekinesis, where the Psyker moves objects around, either on a macro or micro scale. This can be used by psykers of any focus, with the difference being that power focused psykers generally rely on moving large objects to cause damage while control focused psykers rely on moving small objects precisely to do the same damge.

Next is Force Manipulation, where the Psyker creates regions that halt or enhance kinetic energy. This is mostly used to create Telekinetic shields to defend the Psyker and those around him but can also be used to enhance the fire of kinetic weapons, such as the Impaler. Force Manipulation is a Power depended art.

There are several forms of advanced Telekinesis that have wildly varied effects, including Transmutation and Technomancy.
 
I like how Vanaheim's opposition actually went up. Looks like some folks are butthurt.
I don't think anyone undecided chooses to become techno-conservative because of a discovery that supports techno-progressives.
Or do those numbers reflect feelings?
It depends on rolls. We lucked out last turn because of the crit.
We might crit again. We don't know if even a crit makes Abaci relatively quick to install.
@Durin
How long does Tranth estimate that it would take to produce and install Abaci?

it depends on the action and its results, she does tell you that it will encourage more people to choose sides
I really don't like the sound of a house divided right now.

he is not sure, installing will be easy, producing harder
and its more people leaning towards conservative but not all the way there going full conservative in response to others going progressive

Well, can't say this was unexpected. I'm tempted to have Ridcully divine the crusade fleet with the action he's got available this turn.

@Durin - when did the Order of Omens say that the Waaagh would actually hit whichever target it happens to hit?
