2. often but not always. it is also bad form to assassinate the president until the final year of his term when he is back on the campaign trail

1. Hehe
2. If if I wasn't working soon I'd do a chaos marine Jed Bartlet you mark my WORDS!
I find that fairly unlikely. Without the benefit of Chaos speeds, they're not likely to make it.
We have a fair deal of industrial STCs from the Dark Age of Technology. While they're progressive and likely have a number of developments, we're likely better off overall from a tech standpoint. But they've had a lot longer to build the biggest Forges than we have, which gives them a big industrial advantage in terms of producing advanced tech at the least.

How dramatic? I don't know where else to look to compare everyone in the Trust except the strange planet named Avernus.

I'm glad you have an ending planned out, and I hope we all get to see it.

Not really. While they could be harried a lot unless chaos can intercept while in warp they'd be able to flee...just with chaos literally right behind them.
It's very possible they've got some special manufacturing secrets though.
Hear hear!
More than fair, they can easily be "run down". I'm just trying to be hopeful we get something out of their inevitable death by Waaagh.
Are we better off tech wise? Obviously, we're the imperial trust. Do they have industry tech we don't? I'd bet my bottom dollar.
Shame, at least they have the tech advantage. Still, once Julius reaches 25k how long will it be before he founds a second Demi Legion if I may ask. And does he want a second world for said Demi legion?
Jesus durin, one out of three? This makes me a happy man!
In it for the long haul indeed. I agree with the above, whatever lies in wait for the Imperial Trust, I hope we all get to see this grand tale unfold.
Edit: Anyways back to lurkin this thing, you kids have fun blowin up heretics y'hear?!?!

Right, of course, forgot about that one. Makes everything else make sense.
Now I'm imagining that Jeb wins! meme with a star of chaos in the background.

I was going to argue about breaking the defences of the worlds they don't care as much about defending with massed steath ships hidden in their own territory to force through an exterminatus, or at least threatening to do so to force them to hold back forces to screen their worlds.
But after reading what's below I can't work up the gumption.
I am actually stupidly pleased by the way that Agoria Cumulous survived and has become actually relevant.
When I was designing it I was trying my best to create something that could act in ignorance and still survive the mass corruption immediately following the Emperor's death, then have significant growth potential later on.
The way I hoped things would play out is that whichever sects of the Mechanicus and Imperial Cults were most vulnerable would fall, but their internal conflicts would prevent the corruption from spreading and their increasingly obvious state as being backed by cosmic horrors would unite everyone else against them, hopefully causing a widespread cultural backlash against the portions of Imperial Culture most likely to cause Abomination corruption, and possibly an adoption of local religions in part or in whole.
I hoped they would pull off all of this without crippling their potential for long term growth by fully destroying the Mechanicus and infrastructure that the Imperium brought in, so long as they avoided that the population remains essentially unkillable except by virus bomb or horrific planet corrupting sorcery, and able to exploit the moons and rings to industrialize.
And then there was whatever piece of potential xenotech the Admech thought might have been in the depths, it could easily have included the weird weapons that killed the moon civilisations.
In short, I came up with what I would want to play in a post Imperial Dark Heresy game.
I'm going to re-read the omakes for Seriae and Thakomumcos, they seem interesting.
Edit: also who else had a moment of terrible regret at getting rid of the Men of Iron STC and an urge to write Omakes about it being hidden instead when they saw this list of threats.
But after reading what's below I can't work up the gumption.
So they have warp drives now? I suppose that helps explain why they haven't been eaten by Orks or less ethnic Chaos.
Quick, let's desperately avoid attacking their shipping, we're already space Germany, lets not make this matchup any worse.
I am very glad we started where we did, It is interesting that Dragon's nest is the most powerful Imperial remenant within 500 light years. Was it like this when we started, or did we fail to outreach hard enough and made everything worse?

Complete honesty, I was working on an Omake that I hoped would bring in the Yeerks from Animophs as a minor Xenos species. Because 40k doesn't have enough horror, it needed a dash of 'invasion of the body snatchers', not sure whether to continue it or not.

Actually IIRC the DAoT was mostly military based and so we don't really have DAoT industry tech. Callamus is also likely in possesion of industry tech of all kinds which would still be useful seeing as they are a forge empire rather than a mere forge world. Afterall, most of our industry actually comes from the tech we got from Atlas if I'm not mistaken.
Why do you think Space Germany?

Hey, I was reading a few pages back, and I got to thinking. We haven't seen Black Crystal Regalia in a while, but maybe their holders have been scattered across the entire planet, and I was wondering if our 'encounter rate' would go up if we expanded to other regions.

The Imperium was space Nazis, If we come after space Nazis we are clearly space Germany. Though I will admit my timeline analogy starts breaking down there.

he could try, given Avernus unknown success, he might be able to see past anything not warded to a divine level but there are wards that level on Avernus, his divination's insist that the planet only has 3 continents not 4
