@Durin, if Frederick Spends Time with the Companions of Varen, is there a chance Frederick could hit Paragon Combat? This assumes he goes down into the caverns with them.

Light Power Weapons- After a few years investigation you have decided that providing the entire Helguard and Helltroopers with Light Power Weapons along with the PDF sergeants and your PDF Rough Riders. This should provide you with a significant boost to your forces ability to deal with melee based enemies without being overly expensive

Gentlemen, we have a moral obligation to see this done.

A Power Bayonet has been the dream of uncountable Guardsmen since the thirtieth millennium.

1. You mentioned it would be possible to establish an office to automatically ask People we have diplomatic relations with if they want to go krump chaos during our chaos krumping campaigns. Which option is that?

To expound on this...

1. She made us get this as a concession. It looks bad for her if we don't follow through.
2. The military is still a bastion of conservatives, second only to Vanaheim. Getting the military to be more progressive will take an expansion. And doing so is important given the radicalization of the conservatives.

Ok technology we implement first for Rotbart is population growth since that is the most important one. Get the visor started on a hive in new region . Because of the trade we are actually good on am for the short term but will have to implement as many Am industry as we can before the next high council meeting.

The Death of Arkhan Varnek
  • Apocrypha
    • Omake: The Death of Arkhan Varnek

    The aide approached the mountain of steel, wire, and rust-red cloth that was the mortal form of Archmagos Arkhan Varnek, a thick sheaf of parchment clutched in its mechadendrites.

    "The report on the STCs from the conference, as you commanded Archmagos," the aide buzzed.

    "Bring me the index child*. I do not have time to review the STCs one by one at this juncture," the ancient cyborg thrummed.

    "This is the index honored one," the aide buzzed, its binary tinged with just the smallest hint of trepidation.

    A lightning fast mechadendriate lashed out and plucked the sheaf from the aide's grip. Optical sensors poured over tiny script, not even taking the time to turn the pages but peering through each page.

    The great hulk shifted. Robes parted and large radiator panels extended from the back. Fans whirred to life. Liquid coolant lines extended from the ceiling to attach to ports all over the Archmagos's form. Its face split, optical sensors dividing themselves into independent clusters for parallel processing.

    In a deep, basso thrum Arkhan Varnek listed off the STCs it would review first. The manuscripts were delivered.

    For a time it continued thus, STCs being demanded, delivered and devoured. Finally there came a time when the ancient seemed to slip into a state of deep contemplation.

    Then one of the aides noticed the thin line of smoke rising from the Archmagos's cranium.

    * Anything less than a quarter of its age was a child to the ancient.

    ---------------------------------

    The coroner settled back, retracting telescoping micro-sensors and withdrawing data taps.

    "Any sign of scrapcode?" one of the inquisitors demanded.

    "What? Oh, no," the coroner responded distractedly. "Poor bastard got caught up in a race condition and resource locks failed. Far as I can reconstruct from his RAM, about a dozen threads were trying to access the ecstasy grey-matter response at once while a handful more, the ones looking at the Tau stuff, were fighting over the outrage response. Maybe if he had been a bit younger he could have taken it, but with flesh as old as that? Not a chance."

    "Death of shock and natural causes then?" a second inquisitor asked.

    "Aye, but what a way to go!" the coroner buzzed cheerfully.

    Don't remember what the general reception for the idea was but remember someone mentioning instead of sending fleets that we send a ship with all the highest level Imperial tech to human worlds/minor polities to make them tougher to crack. This doesn't seem like it would actually cost much and would be a pragmatic choice by making other human polities able to hold off enemies of mankind. It also helps that our DAoT tech makes the highest level of tech available to Imperials seem weak by comparison.

    That, and the Dragon's Nest is about to enter a major upgrade cycle, resulting in tens of thousands obsolete warships needing to be retired, plus who knows how many tanks, las guns ect. We can ship those to some of the more stable petty imperiums. I also reccomened squishing the minor powers in the neighboring regions in a slow rolling campaign to remove distractions and to deal with a worrying buildup by the ork minors
     
    @Durin
    1. Were we supposed to get the next stage of our educational reforms this turn?
    Edit:
    2. Is there a source we can use for the Great Crusade, Tau, and Mechanicus military tech we got?

    The Order of Light's Salvation
  • Apocrypha
    • Omake: The Order of Light's Salvation

    Many are the psykers of the Avernite Adeptus Astra Telepathica who owe their lives and sanity to Saint Lin: the memories of his kind words and lessons bringing them the strength they needed to pass the crucible of the Trials where otherwise they would have failed. From this number a small cadre of telepaths has emerged, dedicated to the task of honoring their savior and aiding his work to the best of their abilities.
    They do this in two ways. The first is that each member seeks training into the knowledge, arts, and methods of the Ecclesiarchy; they know that they cannot be priests themselves but they seek to fill as close a role as they can among the burdened. In this capacity they serve to comfort and guide their kin, especially those who face the trials.
    In the second capacity, they seek to gather memories of the saint and the Emperor*. They interview young psykers both before and after they have met Lin, carefully preserving the impressions and emotions experienced for posterity. They conduct similar interviews with Psykers fresh from their trials. In this way they have begun to build a library of moments of faith and salvation, as well as a collage image of Lin himself.
    They use this library, combined with their priestly training and their own personal experiences, to identify and help at risk psykers facing their trails. While it is true that each psyker's experiences are different in the trials, the breadth of insight and experience that the order can share grants them unique advantages in finding and aiding those in need.

    *While they still lived the last of the true Astropaths imparted some sliver of their experience of His holy presence. These slivers are the order's most prized possessions.

    @Durin
    1. Would this be a viable psyker order?

    We may need to keep the floating admech option on fabricator actions to deal with all the implementations for the next several turns while also doing the military expansion. Also other and food for rotbart personal actions with general in the admin actions. Can we do more then one at a time of those (so say 2 general under admin and 2 other under personal attention?)

    Lin (and Avenite society in general) are trying to move past the whole "psychic talent is a curse" view. Maybe use "burdened" or something along those lines.

    So, I'm sort of on the fence about that one. I sort of like the idea that there has been some pushback against that, even among the psykers themselves, perpetuated in particular by the sheer damage that rogue psykers regularly cause. I generally prefer social change in stories to be messy rather than clean.
    Then again, he has had centuries to work on this.
