@Enjou
Don't know if you've seen it in Discord, but we can ask the Siren about the Tau tech and lakes in the same action.

Sorry if you've seen it already.
 
If people want, I don't mind taking a risk of failure and doing a different second action. I'm somewhat doubting this is a project we can crit on given how big the bonus is for a regular success, I just was trying to ensure it would succeed. (and remember folks, there are rolled actions that can just fail or succeed with no potential for a crit)

We've still got a planet with Heavy taint that needs cleansing, as well as some god actions that need doing.

So ya'll let me know what you guys think, and I'll decide based on what the people want.
In my opinion the best way of Using Lin is by tripling down, I know his time is limited but it is much better to assure that we got a good result in the first try, plus the higher the success the higher chances of getting a trait, and that is also extremely valuable.

And we still have, at least 20 turns left until Lin kicks the Bucket more than enough to research all the Gods (we only got Gork, Mork and the Eldar ones left) and doing the primordial sea, so I would triple down on everything from now on (or at least in Gork and Mork and in Isha)
 
How would the planet mind react to us investigating the Primordial Sea? Is this valuable research data for it, a massive risk to the facility or ultimately investigation into trivial things it already knows done by a minor species?
 
@Durin a few questions about the things that may help to get the primordial sea easier

1 Would the Laws of the Warp option from the Telepathica help Lin with the Primordial Sea?

2 Can Lin research Eldar gods that have been consumed by Slaanesh (like Kurnous or Asuryan)? What about those who had been horribly fragmented but not consumed (like Khaine and according to a canon omake Lileath)?

3 Since Lin cannot research the C´tan, are there any major gods, aside from what is left of the Eldar Pantheon, Gork and Mork and Malal, that Lin can research?

I support switching it out, preferably for Created Gods.

Lileath was consumed by Slaanesh but after Ynnaed cut its belly open shards of Eldar gods escaped along the Eldar souls.

Yes, I know that, but Lileath is somehow conscious, but I don't know the state in which the other gods are, for all I know they may be too weak or damaged to count for at least the next 20000 years.

I would love to see Isha reunited with her husband and daughter, but I think that it is pretty much impossible.

The Eldar have the shards of the rest of their gods except the ones that have been stolen for Khaine's ritual and the traitor god they don't talk about. We have known that we have met some of them. No god except the three are whole. Isha's husband is never coming back he is gone forever as it was.

Yes I suppose, but I don't know if by putting together enough shards of a God you can actually rebuild it, so maybe a complete Kerunos will never be a thing but a a 70% on is possible.
 
@Enjou my plan looks to not win. But I think we should leave Saint Lin second slot open. We need to start on some of the other stuff. Nature of gork and Mork, all the Eldar gods, creation of gods, and cleaning the corrupt planets. The small chance of a critical I believe not worth doing both actions.

That is what that ritual is trying to do rebuild Khaine. Whether it works or not is unknown and even if it is they are unlikely to do so. It takes too much power and resources to do so especially since they lack the knowledge of god-crafting. Their new death god only worked out because it is the reincarnation of their god's king who shattered himself to put a piece of himself into every Eldar during the fall.
 
the traitor god may have been effected by the primordial ocean (why else would a god turn on the worshipers he needs to exist ), so maybe researching the traitor god before and after he fell would help lin with the primordial ocean rolls
It's a Sea God, Manann.

The thing that makes Chaos Chaos is the Primordial Sea.

Makes perfect sense that they're the one who fell.
 
It wasn't so much that it fell or went crazy. It was that it was stupid enough to think if it gave up the other gods to Chaos it would be left alone. It didn't work.
 
Primordial Sea is just called that, it has nothing whatsoever to do with bodies of water or any related concepts.

Its like calling space the sea of stars.

1. We don't know that, it could have a lot to do with the sea, the ocean in many Mesopotamian religions was intricately linked to creation myths and the Sea is apparently where the universe sprang from so it could just be a reference to that, given the connection to the divine.
2. Even then the warp has bugger all to do with a sea either aside from the fact it is everything and anything. It was originally the sea of souls and even millennia later other civilisations like the Prosperans called it the Great Sea. Presumably the Primordial Sea as it is quite literally a force of change has similar properties. The name may not be literal, it simply be used to show the vast enormity, mystery and seperation of the sea, which is how the ocean has been for humanity for millennia.
3. As far as I can tell the original drive for people to want to look at Mathalann was because he was likely corrupted by chaos, and thus the sea, not because his domain happens to be sea and storm.

Was it said that he was corrupted though? I was under the impression that he simply betrayed the other Eldar Gods in an attempt to not get eaten which worked as well as it was excepted to.

No just that he turned traitor, although his exact motives are unclear.

However, going by his WHF lore and the Embers distinctions of chaos God if any of the Eldar pantheon were to turn to chaos than Malathaan is that God.
