Description of Planet.
Agoria Cumulous is a planet of flying cites scattered between the skin folds of the sky whales or the baskets of shoals of balloons, often engaged in philosophically sophisticated contests of political, cultural, and economical dominance with other cities, and far ranging nomadic clans of sky skimmers, living atop and practically as one with their mounts as they herd their charges across the clouds or reave the riches of others, all living within the breathable layer of a gas giant.
This is not a normal state of affairs in the galaxy.
That might be a somewhat presumptuous thing to say given the sheer variety found the length and breadth of the Imperium, but it is the case. Gas giants often lack a breathable layer, and those that have them anyway can have serious issues with pressure and gravity. For whatever reason those problems are not crippling on Agoria, yes it is a heavyworld, and yes the low pressure and unusual atmospheric blend can cause health issues(and amusingly high pitched voices), especially among those not raised in such an environment, but these problems are inexplicably less crippling than they might be.
The human population was discovered when native astronomers experimenting with 'advanced' materials science and electrical theory in the upper cloud layers created radio signals that could be picked up and distinguished as unusual by the Mechanicus mission examining one of the formerly inhabited moons.
Agoria has two once inhabited moons, Ibixis, which was subject to an unknown form of exterminatus at some point during the Age of Strife and is now barely habitable and unsettlingly flat, and Ebraxis, which was subject to bombardment and invasion at around the same point, leaving only the strangely bent, warped, and runny looking remnants of cities and artefacts as evidence of Humanity's past on this moon.
It is unknown exactly why the inhabitants of this planetary system decided to send people to actually live inside of the gas giant, one theory at present is built around the find of a flyer advertising an 'extreme mantafwurp gliding' lodge that incidental evidence indicates might have been located in the breathable layer, indicating accidental colonisation by stranded holiday goers with the fall of the rest of the system, while a competing research group's theory indicates agricultural colonisation to take advantage of the extreme fecundity of nearly anything living under the clouds. This bitter disagreement has sparked first arguments(this indigene legend clearly references their past as the idle rich visiting for entertainment/ this half melted building was clearly a crop storage facility for the sky lanternfruit), then serious internecine violence as the techpriest sects defend their views. The gliding lodge view has become predominant following the conclusion of the most recent round of duels, but the agriculturalists looked to be making a comeback with their underhanded recruitment of Myrmidon and former dueling champion Magos Takabik Maros Pi.
While the inhabitants were able to retain or develop the use of complex and sophisticated bone tools and mechanisms the cloud layers almost completely lack the resources that would allow for the maintenance or construction of advanced technology. The natives rarely have access to anything beyond steam engines and use of simple chemical propellants in weapons where bone or shells durable enough and chemical fuel plentiful enough for either purpose can be sourced. They have fallen back on the powerful and dangerous animals of their world, exploiting their instinctive symbiosis with the smaller creatures that keep the plants that could root on them under control as often as more conventional social instincts and breeding programs to tame them. Alongside regional use of slaves, depending on the heathen culture predominating in the drift you are examining.
The population of Agoria wasn't discovered by the Imperium until less than two hundred years before the death of the Emperor, and had been resisting the efforts of Imperial missionaries and forces working towards integration, with the local cities being able to easily slot the Imperium into place as another competitor of the type of conflict they were used to, and the nomadic clans being essentially impossible to hunt down when they offended the Imperium badly enough to need to be put to death.
Shortly before the fall of the Imperium a number of sects of the Imperial Cult and Mechanicus pooled their resources to pay for a more vigorous mission. It was to be based out of a number of recently commissioned skyships, and begin with mines in the planetary ring and inhabitable satellite to supply raw materials, alongside research teams aimed at finding a suitable animal or plant to refine into Promethium. The Ecclesiarchical sects hoped that offers of living space, work, and Biologis medical aid aimed at relieving the locally difficult to treat diseases caused by airborne plants colonizing the eyes and lungs, combined with a harder to assault base of operations would allow them to make great progress on converting the impressively large native population. While the Mechanicum were driven by … something, they suspected would be found in the stygian abyss, far below the deepest that the most fearless capsule harpooners would willingly dive.
Unfortunately neither of these groups seemed to be making much progress by the fall of the Imperium. Or rather, they had, but their efforts had fallen apart into internal schism and conflict. Things getting worse as the different Ecclesiarchical sects opened violence over doctrinal squabbles and local slights, and the Mechanicus devolved into secretive internal conflict over the potential degree of heresy of their mission on this world, and far more public conflict over the correct view of the providence of the native peoples. With those seeking to avoid a seemingly inevitable loss against Myrmidon Takabik Maros Pi beginning to bypass the civilised framework of dueling to achieve satisfaction in their disputes. The only people who were living up to their initial goals and profiting off of the whole endeavor were the owners of the lunar resource extraction operations, who were beginning to bring up workers from the cloud layers en masse in the hope of exploiting resources not mined since the Age of Strife.
It is unknown whether or not the Inquisitorial team sent to resolve the issue arrived before the snuffing of the Astronomicon.

It was Nurgle's plan that had the error. Enjou's was the one that won and it doesn't have the error.

So, was contemplating the difficulty in finding good theme songs for various groups/individuals in WH40k. It's really, really hard to just stumble across anything suitably epic, to say nothing of thematic appropriateness or there being a real connection to the group/individual in question.
That said, I just rewatched Life of Brian and decided that Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life is possibly the most Avernite thing I've heard, in both the good and the bad sense. I mean, it doesn't exactly catch their martial inclination or religious faith, but in terms of attitude/mood it just seems right.

A nat 100's always a success and a nat 1 is always a fail...so would they cancel each other out or amplify one or the other...or would the psyker just vanish in a puff of smoke?

Nat 100 succeeds at giving a very large bonus to the psyker, so the psyker rolling a 1 would fail.

1. unless someone involved has a trait to negate nat 1 is always a fail the only effect that bonuses can have is making it a simple fail rather then a disaster
Nurgle's plan didn't win. It wasn't the same as the other plan, and it had less votes.

Two Hundred and Eighty-Five years since the Founding of Avernus
Over the last four years am average of three million Avernites a year have fallen to a combination of wildlife attacks and Orks. The majority of these losses were incurred beating back a Thundahead Herd in Elysium.
Lessons Learned: Siege- Your forces gained a good deal of experience with the defensive side of siege warfare in the recent wars. General Richards tells you that if she focuses on codifying the gathered knowledge she could notably improve your training in siege warfare.
Time: 1 year. (can't be taken with any other Lessons Learned)
Cost: 4,000,000 Thrones, 400,000 Material, 20,000 Promethium.
Reward: +5 to all rolls when defending in siege and +3 to combat rolls.
Complete
General Richards spent a few years codifying all of the lessons learned in the defence of Svartalfheim, ensuring that they would enter the institutional knowledge of Avernus. She tells you that there were a few significant improvements that she made to your standard operating procedures, mostly relating to the use of power armour. On that note she tells you that the new format power armoured forces proved themselves to be highly effective in the recent war and that no major changes need to be made to them. As expected.
Hellsword Regiments- A Hellsword Regiment would be one of the most powerful siege artillery regiments available to the Imperial Trust. However due to their size and expense general Richards would prefer to initially only recruit half a brigade of them, which should be enough for most campaigns.
Time: 8 years
Cost: 12,000,000 Thrones, 1,800,000 Material, 150,000 Promethium, 300,000 Advanced Material, 2,000 Exotic Material .
Upkeep per year: 2,300,000 Thrones, 350,000 Material, 76,000 Promethium, 30,000 Advanced Material, 110 Exotic Material.
Reward: Recruit 5 Hellsword Regiments
Locked- Six out of Eight years completed
For the last half dozen years General Richards has been training Avernus' first Hellsword Regiments. There have been a few issues with this due to just how different the Hellsword is to any of the other Super-Heavy Tank currently in service, acting more like a heavily armoured artillery piece, but in general the training has been going well. Ax thngs stand the Hellsword Regiments are currently fully formed and are now engaging in extended wargames to refine their Standard Operating Procedures before being commissioned.
Expand Helguard- The third expansion proposal that General Richards has put forth will greatly expand the size of your Helguard. This will give you an entire corps of soldiers able to utterly annihilate all but the strongest foes, and entire divisions of heavy armour. On the downside it will take a long time to gather and train this number of Helguard, and it will be very expensive for to maintain. General Richards considers this to be the lowest priority of the military expansions due to cost.
Time: 18 years
Cost: 1,600,000,000 Thrones, 110,000,000 Material, 5,600,000 Promethium, 42,000,000 Advanced Material, 540,000 Exotic Material .

Reward: Triple the size of your Helguard by recruiting 150 Helguard Shocktrooper Regiments, 300 Helguard Trooper Regiments Regiments, 146 Helguard Paratrooper Regiments, 147 Helguard Scout Infantry Regiments, 25 Helguard Fast Armour Regiments, 25 Helguard Armour Regiments, 24 Helguard Jetbike Regiments, 200 Helguard Deathstrike Batteries, 3 Helguard Life-Eater Deathstrike Batteries, 3 Thundabeast Brigades, 25 Helguard Phase-Tiger Rider Companies, 15 Helguard Skimmer Regiments, 5 Helguard Land Raider Trooper Regiments, 30 Crab Regiments, 100 Testudo Regiments, 30 Macharius Heavy Armour Regiments, 4 Macharius Vanquisher Heavy Armour Regiments, 50 Macharius Mega-Vanquisher Heavy Armour Regiments, 15 Magni Transporter Companies,10 Northern Sentinel Maniples, 10 Hellord Regiments and 50 Fellblade Regiments
Locked- Six out of Eighteen years completed
For the last half dozen years you have been engaged in the largest expansion of the Helguard to date. This massive project calls for no less then eleven waves of new Helguard to be trained, each wave starting several million strong, and is one of the most expensive projects in the history of Avernus. As things stand eight waves are being trained, with the first wave being expected to be commissioned in the next few months.
Expand Black Irons- General Richards is currently looking to expanding the Black Irons by adding a corps that has lower skill requirements for entry and will be effectively a Helltrooper branch of the Black Irons. This force will have the sheer discipline/suicidal courage of the Black irons but lack the same level of skill, and expansive equipment making them more expandable.
Time: 10 years
Cost: 240,000,000 Thrones, 25,000,000 Material, 630,000 Promethium, 4,000,000 Advanced Material, 3,500 Exotic Material .
Upkeep per year: 23,000,000 Thrones, 2,300,000 Material, 320,000 Promethium, 400,000 Advanced Material, 110 Exotic Material.
Reward: Recruit 50 Regiments of Helltrooper Shocktroopers, 200 Regiments of Helltrooper Troopers, 100 Regiments of Helltrooper Paratroopers, 50 Regiments of Helltrooper Scouts, 50 Regiments of Helltrooper Armour, 100 Regiments of Helltrooper Void Infnatry and 25 Regiments of Helltrooper Jetbikers for the Black Irons
Locked- Five out of Ten years completed
Over the last few years General Richards has been working to expand the Black Irons by adding on a Helltrooper Corps. So far the corps is rather skeletal, having drawn officers and senior NCOs from the existing Black Irons who are beginning to train Black irons candidates with the brutal and dehumanising training that the Black Irons are know for. General Richards tells you that while she will be able to finish setting up the Black Irons Helltrooper Corps within five years it will likely take a decade or more longer for it to reach full strength, due to there being only so many Black Iron's Candidates and the short life expectancy of a Black Iron's trooper.

Upgrade Defences (Deiphobe)- Orbital defences have proven to be one of the main advantages that your fleets have against invaders. Admrial Sarnow would like to further strengthen your orbital defences both at Diephobe and Avernus to make attacks even more challenging.
Time: 10 years
Cost: 9,500,000,000 Thrones, 3,000,000,000 Material, 860,000,000 Metal, 200,000,000 Promethium, 1,500,000 Advanced Material, 35,000 Exotic Material .

Reward: Build 21 Advanced Defence Stations, 90 Advanced Heavy Orbital Weapons Platforms and 450 Advanced Orbital Weapons Platforms around selected planet
Complete
Four years ago Admiral Sarnow finished the next set of orbital defences around the Diephobe shipyards. As things stand Deiphobes defences could now withstand an assault by the entire Avernite navy with ease, and with the support of your fleet would be able to hold of Vanaheim's Navy for an extended period.
Construct: Repair, Again- Your fleet suffered some losses above Svartalfheim though not that many. Admiral Sarnow estimates that it will take six years for these losses to be repaired along with the handful of hulks still remaining from the last war. After this work can finally begin on expanding your fleets.
Time: 6 years
Cost: 2,000,000,000 Thrones, 1,200,000,000 Material, 31,000,000 Promethium, 7,100,000 Advanced Material, 200,000 Exotic Material .

Reward: Repair all damaged ships, 1/1 Heavy Cruiser hulks, 0/2 Stealth Battlecruiser hulks, 8/8 Cruiser hulks, 12/12 Light Cruiser hulks, 100/100 Escort hulks
Complete
Over the last half dozen years Admiral Sarnow has overseen the repair of all of the ship damaged in the recent war, and the rebuilding of all but two of the hulks recovered. The two Night Stealth Battlecruisers that have yet to be rebuilt will take some time due to their complexity. This still leaves your fleet well under its strength from before the War on Two Fronts, and Admiral Sarnow estimates that it will take a decade or so to fully recover.
Upgrade Defences (Avernus)- Orbital defences have proven to be one of the main advantages that your fleets have against invaders. Admrial Sarnow would like to further strengthen your orbital defences both at Diephobe and Avernus to make attacks even more challenging.

Reward: Build 21 Advanced Defence Stations, 90 Advanced Heavy Orbital Weapons Platforms and 450 Advanced Orbital Weapons Platforms around selected planet
Locked- Six out of Ten years completed
For the last half dozen years Admiral Sarnow has been overseeing a major expansion to the orbital defences of Avernus. This expansion will increase Avernus' orbital defence by half, making it a far tougher proposition to assault. However given the sheer strength of your ground defences any force able to threaten you on the ground will still be able to brush aside your orbital defences.
Expedite: 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.

Four years ago Admiral Sarnow finished the next set of orbital defences around the Diephobe shipyards. As things stand Deiphobes defences could now withstand an assault by the entire Avernite navy with ease, and with the support of your fleet would be able to hold of Vanaheim's Navy for an extended period.
Construct: Repair, Again- Your fleet suffered some losses above Svartalfheim though not that many. Admiral Sarnow estimates that it will take six years for these losses to be repaired along with the handful of hulks still remaining from the last war. After this work can finally begin on expanding your fleets.

Over the last half dozen years Admiral Sarnow has overseen the repair of all of the ship damaged in the recent war, and the rebuilding of all but two of the hulks recovered. The two Night Stealth Battlecruisers that have yet to be rebuilt will take some time due to their complexity. This still leaves your fleet well under its strength from before the War on Two Fronts, and Admiral Sarnow estimates that it will take a decade or so to fully recover.
Upgrade Defences (Avernus)- Orbital defences have proven to be one of the main advantages that your fleets have against invaders. Admrial Sarnow would like to further strengthen your orbital defences both at Diephobe and Avernus to make attacks even more challenging.

For the last half dozen years Admiral Sarnow has been overseeing a major expansion to the orbital defences of Avernus. This expansion will increase Avernus' orbital defence by half, making it a far tougher proposition to assault. However given the sheer strength of your ground defences any force able to threaten you on the ground will still be able to brush aside your orbital defences.

Expand Advanced Juve-nat factories- Recently the use of Advanced Juve-Nat by your military has reached the point where it is digging into your reserves.

Two years ago the last of the newly expanded Advanced Juve-Nat Factories began production. With this increase in production rather then quickly depleting your reserves in order to fulfil your obligations you are now producing three times as much Advanced Juve-Nat as you need. Signe estimates that you will be able to trade away half of your total production for the next fifty years. Given that this is enough for a hundred million people you expect to make quite a profit off it.
Wildlife Export Goods- According to Signe there is a large barely tapped market in the sale of parts of Avernite wildlife to the elite of other worlds. This market includes luxury foods and furs for the nobles of the Imperial Trust, interesting materials for the Artisans of Svartalfheim and similar. Signe believes that if she throws from governmental resources into developing this trade it could be a major boon to the economy of Avernus.

Two years ago Signe finished her efforts to improve the export market for Avernite wildlife goods. She tells you that there has been a major expansion of the industry, which now accounts for almost a tenth of your tax revenue. One unexpected benefit of this industry is that it has helped integrate Avernus into the Imperial Trust, both by increased interaction and by helping offworlders actually understand parts of what living on Avernus means. Being told that montsers can come thought he walls is one thing, having a Phase-Tiger fang and being told that the create that has them can come though the walls is another.
Integrated banking Systems- Signe believes that by expanding Avernus' banking systems and more closely integrating them with the other commercial sectors that she will be able to further foster economic growth. This will take a few years but could increase your Thrones income by a third, almost fifteen billion Thrones a year.

While daemons as a whole are varied enough that you can't account for all of them they do have enough similarities to make designing defences with daemonic assault in mind viable.

Reward: Expand city to Small Hive
Locked- Eight out of Nine years completed: Expedited
Your work on expanding the city of Lorien into a Small Hive has proceeded well, with only a handful of the internal defences still being under construction. In fact the city is now operating as a Small Hive despite the few areas still under construction.
Expedite: Personal Attention: Expand (Bonud) to Small Hive- Now that the cities of Duat have all been built, or are in the final stages of construction it would be a good idea to expand one of them into a Small Hive. This would provide a centre for the administration and defence of the region and allow for a greater population to build up. It would also be possible to build more small hives in other regions, though not nearly as important.

Reward: Expand city to Small Hive
Locked- One out of Nine years completed: Expedited
With the expansion of Cassarondo into a Small Hive you turned your attention to the last major city in Elysium, Bonud. As things stand you are currently working on digging down so that the new districts of the city can be built under the current city, and the area just around it.
Sound Out (Eldar Diplomacy - talk with the Eldar through Ridcully, ask what they might want in exchange for limited webway access so we can talk with and possibly trade with other major human polities in the galaxy)- Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan has suggested that you sound out the other Governors' about any proposal that you make before the next High Council meeting. While it is rather early to start now it would give you time to attempt to convince people to change their minds before the next High Council meeting.

Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan spent a pair of years sounding out the High Council about your idea to make contact with the other major human polities in the galaxy via the Eldar Webway. He found that this idea was rather divisive, with many who support it, many who oppose it and few in between.
As thing stand your biggest supporters in this are the Adeptus Mechanicus, who wish to make contact with the Forge-Empire, the Varangain Guard who would like to make contact with Ultramar and Muspelheim, who simply want contact with other powers.
Currently Asgard, Jotunheim and Midgard would be willing to support the proposal to at least find out what the price is, and to make any decisions afterwards.
Vanaheim leads the opposition on this, partly due to the fact that you are putting it forward but mostly due to their ancient experiences with Eldar, which result in them not being willing to work with or Trust Eldar in all but the most dire of circumstances. Alfheim, Svartalfheim, the Inquisition and the Security Council agree with Vanaheim on this, in large part because they view any contact with distant polities as only increasing the chance that the Imperial Trust will come to the attention of a hostile galactic power which it can not stand against.
Niflheim does not seem to be leaning one way or the other on this topic.
Nynye Trade (Cure for Jacob's aging)- There are several bit of knowledge that the Nynye that have that could be of great use to the humans of Avernus. There are limits to how much of what they ask for in return that you would be willing to offer but what you can get will be another weapon in the hands of the heroes of Avernus.
Time: 1 year.
Cost: 490,000 Thrones.
Reward: buy Alkahestry from Lulana of the Nynye.
Complete
Your diplomats found that Lulana was more then willing to use her best Alkahestry to augment Jacob so that his body can withstand the power coursing though it. The price that she asks is easily affordable, a bit of work from some of your excavation machines and some rather hard to find reagents that would be needed including a million fresh human fetuses. You are glad that abortions are relatively common on Avernus and that you have stasis technology. Lulana tells you that it will take a decade of research and treatments to complete the augmentations, far less then it would have taken if the ancient wanderer had not volunteered to help.
Make a Request- Areatha the Ancient Wanderer, one of the most powerful beings of Avernus barring the Great Ones has recently started living among the humans of Avenrus. While you can not commander you you could request her assistance in a matter, or for her to share some of the knowledge that she has gained over the twenty thousand years she has spent on Avernus.

Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan found Areatha perfectly willing to help teach your psykers as much of her anti-chaos tricks as is possible, though not right now. As things stand Areatha has moved to Lulana's Hive where she is helping her with her efforts to use Alkahestry to augment Jacobs body to withstand the power of his soul, which she says is a fascinatingly case. It seems that in her long life Areatha has picked up quite a bit of Alkahestry along with a few other abilities that are useful. In particular she knows the Alkahestic proprieties of a large number of reagents unknown to the Nyenye, and is willing to collect them if needed.

Inquisitor Klovis-Ultan spent a year investigating the state of the relationship between Avernus and Muspelheim, your closest political ally.
Unsurprisingly the relationship is close on both sides, both on a personal and political level.
Politically Muspelheim and Avernus are considered to be the centre of the Progressive Faction of the Imperial Trust High Council, pushing for the Imperial Trust to cast off its traditions and adapt to the changing galaxy. This is in large part a result of the fact that Avernus and Muspelheim are the two fiercest meritocracies in the Imperial Trust, focusing on all levels on efficiency as a driving force.
In general the people of Avernus respect the unmatched level of education of Muspelheim and their dedication to self-improvement, as well as the fact that like on Avernus the people of Muspelheim know that any moment may be their last, though in their case it would be due to a fault in the thermal shielding rather then wildlife attack. The large number of guest students and professors from Muspelheim at Avernus' orbital universities only help in this, as does the number of Avernites to study at one of Muspelheim's universities.
In return the people of Muspelheim approve of Avernites care for each other and willingness to discard traditions that are holding them back and grow, both as individuals and as a culture. They also view the sheer speed that Avernus has grown with as inspirational, and respect the energy that it requires.

Over the last six years your security forces have located a bit over nine hundred chaos cultists, spread equally throughout Avernus.
Of the 6,453 major psykers found over the last six years 487 of them were Chaotic, a normal proportion.
481 of the Chaotic Psykers consisting of 3 Beta-levels, 37 Gamma-levels, 93 Delta-levels, 175 Epsilon-levels and 174 Zeta-levels were killed without causing any significant levels of damage over the last five years.
1 Beta level caused some damage killing ,22 million militiamen 3,280 Psyker Hunters, 464 Veteran Psyker Hunters, 32 Elite Psyker hunters and 6 Master Psyker Hunters before he was taken out by your kill teams.
Avernus' first Alpha Plus human Psyker to be found was born seven years ago, and managed to reach the age of two before forming a full blown Warp rift in Arbor. Three hours later what was left of he city was destroyed by a concentrated barrage from no less then three Island Turtles and a pair of Deep ones, sealing the rift and removing the island that Arbor once stood on. While few humans were still alive and sane when the rift was closed total losses numbered over a billion, including a full PDF corps, a Helltrooper Division, a brigade of Helguard as well as 2,570 Psyker Hunters, 2,464 Veteran Psyker Hunters, 2,436 Elite Psyker Hunters, 382 Master Psyker Hunters, 1,295 Witch Hunters, 933 Veteran Witch Hunters, 1,112 Elite Witch Hunters, 21,344 Witch Finders, 1,066 Psy Hunters, 136 Master Psy Hunters, 4 Grandmaster Psy Hunters, 13 major Psy Hunters, 1 major Master Psy Hunter and 2 Primaris Psy Hunters. This was the most casualties ever suffered in such a short period of time on Avernus by a wide margin.
Less then a year later Ridcully managed to locate another Alpha plus Psyker, this one in Dorieth. An elite strike force was immediately dispatched to either execute the child or get it behind heavy wards if sufficiently stable. It seemed that whatever dark force was interested in the child noticed the strike force inbound, and five minutes before Jane's forces arrived a Lord of Change possessed the child and set loose its hordes on the city. The presence of a large force of Avernus' best, including Arbitrator Jane Oakheart, Grandmaster Xavier and Grandmaster Aria along with two full Primaris Execution Forces was enough to keep the daemonic hordes at bay with the brave assistance of the militia and PDF. It took one hour for Jane to sneak her way to the Lord of Change and end its life for good, ending the incursion. In that time 113 million militiamen had fallen along with 120,000 PDF Troopers, 66,000 Helltroopers, 96 Psy Hunters, 48 Master Psy Hunters, 5 Grandmaster Psy Hunters, 6 major Psy Hunters, 3 major Master Psy Hunters and 1 Primaris Psy Hunter.
An Alpha-level Deamonlogist/Telekinetic in Helm's Deep killed 113 million militiamen, 23,000 Helltroopers, 3,936 Psyker Hunters, 592 Veteran Psyker Hunters, 120 Elite Psyker Hunters, 28 Master Psyker Hunters, 8,256 Witch Hunters, 1,088 Veteran Witch Hunters, 160 Elite Witch Hunters, 48 Witch Finders, 32 Psy Hunters, 16 Master Psy Hunters, 2 Grandmaster Psy Hunters, 2 major Psy Hunters and 1 major Master Psy Hunter before he was put down by a Primaris Execution Force.
A second Alpha-level was turned into a Warp gate, unleashing a horde of daemons into Hollin which killed 35 million militiamen, 270,000 PDF Troopers, 42,000 Helltroopers, 12,192 Psyker Hunters, 2,288 Veteran Psyker Hunters, 536 Elite Psyker Hunters, 220 Master Psyker Hunters, 96 Witch Finders, 64 Psy Hunters, 32 Master Psy Hunters, 3 Grandmaster Psy Hunters, 4 major Psy Hunters and 1 major Master Psy Hunter before your armies managed to wipe out the daemons.
In total over the last five years an incredible number have lost their lives to chaos psykers, including: 1,283,000,000 militiamen, 10,390,000 PDF Troopers, 1,131,000 Helltroopers, 100,000 Helguard, 21,978 Psyker Hunters, 6,808 Veteran Psyker Hunters, 3,024 Elite Psyker Hunters, 636 Master Psyker Hunters, 9,551 Witch Hunters, 2,021 Veteran Witch Hunters, 1,272 Elite Witch Hunters, 21,488 Witch Finders, 1,258 Psy Hunters, 232 Master Psy Hunters, 14 Grandmaster Psy Hunters, 25 major Psy Hunters, 6 major Master Psy Hunters and 3 Primaris Psy Hunters. Thankfully you are unlikely to get two Alpha-plus Psykers born in such a short period of time again, as at the current rate your psyker hunters would be wiped within a decade or so.
The untainted major Psykers included 1 Alpha-level, 3 Beta-levels, 80 Gamma-levels, 423 Delta-levels, 1,761 Epsilon-levels and 3,698 Zeta-levels.
645,268 minor Psykers were located by the Witch Finders over the last six years, a fraction of a percent more then the previous four years.
Double: Focused Psyker Hunting: Times Four- Jane is incredibly skilled at hunting down and killing powerful psykers.

Double Down: Titan Designing Step One: Schematics – Archmagos Tranth believes that he now understands Titans well enough to begin to work on how to create more. The first step of these would be to create a set of schematics for the Titan, integrating the advanced technology that the Imperial Trust has access to from the start. Once this has been completed he will need to work on creating the data systems and Machine Spirit, integrating the Princeps and then tying it all together.
Time: 10 years

After a full decades work Archmagos Tranth finished designing the Avernus Pattern Warlord Titan's body. He tells you that the design makes full use of the most advanced technology that he has access to including an Overcharged Plasma Reactor. The Avernus pattern Warlord is equipped with the normal arm and carapace weapons of a Titan as well as a pair of Titanic Plasma Foils for close in work and a dozen AA mounted Neutron Repeaters. When combined with its shielding, which is three times the strength of a traditional Titan and its faster then normal speed the Avernus pattern Warlord is a terror to face. This is further enhanced by some of its auxiliary system, such as inbuilt replosarlifts which can reduce its weight by 80%, allowing to to operate in a wide range of theatres normally unsuited for Titans and to leap great heights.
Double Down: Titan Designing Step Two: Machine Spirit- Once he has created the schematics for a Titan Tranth will need to work on the data systems and more importantly the powerful Machine Spirit that will be needed for a Titan. This will be a very challenging task, and Tranth fully expects that his first few attempts will fail. However once it has been completed he will have reached the halfway point in designing your first Titan pattern.

Archmagos Tranth has spent the last five years working on creating a data-system for the Avernus Pattern Warlord and the powerful Machine Spirit that will be required. So far all of his attempts on creating a powerful enough Machine Spirit have been failures, not exactly unexpectedly. However he has made some progress on this task, and believes that he should be able to finish within anoyher decade at the most.

Repair the Well of Urd- Recently Archmagos Tranth has worked out how to repair the last of the components of The Well of Urd. This means that Fabricator-General Scott can finally begin to repair it. The repairs will be carried out in the shipyards of Vanaheim at the expense of the Vanaheim Mechanicus but given the importance of The Well of Urd Fabricator-General Scott will still have to devote a large portion of her effort to this project for the next twenty-five years.

-1 Mechanicus Unrest
+1 Mechanicus Morale
Recently the Ancient Ark Mechanicus, The Well of Urd, has been fully repaired after twenty-five years of work by some of the Imperial Trust's greatest Tech-Priests. The restored ship is a work of art, with all of its systems working at full efficiency if not better. The Well of Urd will remain under the control of the Adeptus Mechanicus, and act as the heart of any exploration fleets that the Imperial Trust sends out. This is a role that the Well of Urd is highly suited to as a result of its combination of combat power, advanced sensors, speed, stealth and large amount of cargo capacity. The Adeptus Mechanicus throughout the Imperial Trust are celebrating this achievement, which is also a symbol of unity for the Adeptus Mechanicus as it was the result of extended collaboration between Fabricator-General Scott, the leader of the Progressive Faction, and Archmagos Varnek, the leader of the Conservative Faction.
Cathedral of the Omnissiah: Erecura- In four years time Annwn will have been fully expanded into a Large-Forge Hive. This will allow Fabricator-General Scott to begin building a Cathedral of the Omnissiah or a Cathedral of the Machine-God following the plans provided by the Blood Dragons. A Cathedral of the Omnissiah would massively increase your production of Advanced Materials, increasing your current production by 60%.
Time: 15 years. (can not be chosen until year 3)

Despite his best efforts Saint Lin has yet to be able to determine much about Transcendent Gods that he did not already know. He is sure that there is more out there that he can find, but has not yet made the breakthrough needed for the knowledge, though he is only a few years off it.
Cleanse World (Heavy)- There are fifteen tainted worlds recently captured from Valinor. Of these worlds five are lightly tainted, seven are moderately tainted and three are heavily tainted. Saint Lin believes that with a few decades work he could totally cleanse the worlds, or at least reduce the level of taint.

With the aid of Grandmaster Aria and her Psykers Saint Lin was able to majorly reduce the amount of chaotic taint on Valimar. This was the last of the heavily tainted worlds that you took from Valinor, so it is now theoretically possible to begin colonising all of your worlds.
Those in the Shadows- With the collapse of the Astronomican the psykers have by far the hardest time maintaining their faith. They are constantly tempted by countless daemons with only their own will and training to keep them at bay. Saint Lin has offered to spend time with those Psykers approaching the trials in order to fortify their will and prepare them for the challenges to come.

High Grandmaster Ridcully has spent some time over the recent years divining what Large Ork Waaaghs are currently active in the galaxy. He fund that there were around a hundred level three Waaaghs currently active, most of which are engaged by of of the galactic powers. There are also two tier 4 Waaaghs, Conflagrations that are currently active, a number that is liekly to increase within the next few decades.
The first and largest is almost a thousand sectors based in the galactic core between the Black Imperium and the Krok, and is currently pushing in both directions. Where its assault on the Krok has failed to make much progress the Black Imperium has not fared as well, though a Black Crusade led by Abbadon himself is currently being mustered to change this. Ridcully foresees this front turning into a bloody war though could go either way, to be honest you hope that Abbadon wins.
The second is only a hundred sectors strong and comes from the Ghoul Stars to the North-West of the Krok, and is mounting a major assault on the Krok. So far the Krok are holding their ground and even driving the Okrs back but if another major front opens against them this could change.
Greater Divination (Turoq, Attack Plans)- High Grandmaster Ridcully is more skilled at seeing the present as he is at predicting the future. This allows him to gather a good deal of information about the galaxy using his powers. Possible focuses are the condition of races or organisations, the balance of power in Segmentums or even the activity and compositions of pantheons of gods.

High Grandmaster Ridcully spent a year looking into how the Chaos Dominion of Turoq is planning to attack the Imperial Trust. He found that their plans are based around using dealing with deamons and spies to locate the Imperial Fleets and then launching medium strength on vulnerable worlds, both within the Imperial Trust and within Dragon's Nest. These attacks will be supported by a massive number of Psykers and will focus on training as much as possible, stealing technology and setting up sleeper agents and will retreat before any dangerous reinforcements arrive. As this is going one the forces of Turoq will continue to reinforce the defences of their core worlds and make pacts and deals to acquire allies for the final battle with the Imperial Trust. To be honest this is a worryingly intelligent plan that makes full use of many of the advantages of the forces of Chaos while avoiding many of the Imperial Trust's strengths, you are rather worried by what it implies.

High Grandmaster Ridcully was able to piece the shroud placed over the nature of the super-weapon that Turoq was so proud of. He tells you that the superweapon in question is actually one that is being provided to many of the forces of the Changer of Ways throughout the galaxy, and is a method to create clones of Psykers that can be linked to a Psyker to greatly magnify his power. In total up to eight clones can be linked to each Psyker, boosting his power ninefold and allowing him to act in multiple places.
There are several restrictions on this however, the first of which is that it takes nine months to grow a clone and that only one can be made at a time, the second being that the clones must all stay within a short distance, based on the Psyker, of the original and the third being that when a clone is slain the original takes some significant damage that will not heal for nine days.
Even with these restrictions the clones are a terrifying force multiplier that effectively boost the already formidable Psykers of the Changer of Ways by between one and two power levels, allowing them to deploy a truly terrifying amount of psychic power to the battlefield.
Contact Eldrad Ulthran (Give Dark Eldar and Destroyer/Ctann info - he probably knows already, but doesn't hurt to be on the safe side, and ask what they might want in exchange for helping us communicate with other major human polities far from us)- Now that High Grandmaster Ridcully has made contact with Eldrad Ulthran and formed an agreement with him it is possible for him to make contact once more. This could be either to share the result of a vision that Ridcully has had or to make a request of the Eldar, which Eldrad Ulthran will require some sort of compensation for and will require High Council backing.

Shortly after the High council meeting High Grandmaster Ridcully contacted the ancient Eldar Seer Eldrad Ulthran, both to share a few of his own visions and to inquire over what price must be paid for certain uses of the webway.
You received both an easier way to make contact with the Empire of Ashes as well as the price that you must pay for sending messages, sending messengers and setting up a meeting with distant polities. The prices consist of either Divinations from Ridcully or units being deployed to assist the Empire of Ashes, preferably elites.
Divination (Turoq)- Headmaster Ridcully is almost as skilled at seeing the present as he is at predicting the future. This allows him to gather a good deal of information about the neighbouring sectors without putting any scouts at risk.

High Grandmaster Ridcully spent two whole years divining as much about the Princedom of Turoq as he could. He found that the domain, which has grown to over eighty worlds, is set on becoming one of the regional powerhouses under the command of the recently ascended Daemon Prince Turoq. Turoq is, like many chaos dominions, sworn to the Black Imperium and has contacts with some of the Dark Mechanicus Forge Worlds which provide much of its more advanced technologies. Currently Turoq is engaged with negotiations with several Forge-Worlds for assistance dealing with the Imperial Trust, using several captured pieces of equipment as bargaining tools. Since the conquest of Valinor Turoq has been working on centralising its key industry in half a dozen worlds, each of which is being provided with formidable orbital defences, both technological and sorcerous. Nowhere is this more evident then the daemon world of Epra, which has consumed its once mighty orbital shipyards and now grows warships in crystalline chrysalises.

Hellflame Compression- The Hellflame Coral sues a power that is a mix of demonology and pyromancy to compress and store heat, and then unleash it. If reverse engineered this power could allow your best pyromancers to store up their power and then unleash it in a concentrated attack, allowing for massive burst damage with some preparation.

After much discussion with you, Ridcully and Satin Lin they eventually agreed to go for a child, and Tamia is currently pregnant.
