I will never not believe in humanity ability to screw something up. Come on let's wait to get more details before we decide to make these hopeless. Because there are some things we can do that are well not better way of saying it will **** us over but may help. Like making a deal with the Fae, which is a bad idea but they are powerful.

What benefit do we think we would get out of having Nyne in our cities again?
(I should remind you that we had trouble the last time we put xenos in one of our cities)

I'm all for trade when it benefits us(and doesn't make us more vulnerable), and conquest instead of extermination, but trying to mesh such disparate groups seems like it would lose more than it gains.
 
Now that we have the Titan factory it is a good idea to keep expanding it I am guessing it is like the Shipyards in that we need four of the last size to upgrade. But that should be after the Temple is done so we can keep the survey ships coming.
 
ok preplan subjet to change. also if you want something explain why, and have a good reason why we should do that. not just becasue you want it

So, 3 main things I think would be useful:

1. Something that I think was suggested a while back was having Ridcully try and divine how the Blackstone Fortresses were made, so that Secundus can get theirs fixed and use that against the Destroyer. That could be something we may want to work towards. So, diplo action for that is something I think would be very useful.

2. Rather than PDF shocktroopers, perhaps Hellguard Troopers would be more useful.

3. I believe that it may be best to wait a few years on Tormod. Maybe have a write-in talking to Jane or Xavier about the issue and getting their advice, before sending Tormod a message about wanting to talk. That or wait till the turn after this one.

Per Discord:
5. With regards to Tormod, would repairing the relationship entail more Spend Time With actions over the next few turns, or should we hold off and let things cool down before we do that? I'm not sure how to approach the problem within the CK2 mechanics.

5. I would suggest holding off for a few years then spend time withs maybe including a write in
 
We got a weird answer about the ritual which was

1.With the birth of Chaos/With the rise of the Abomination/Around 20 years ago/They ahve not yet

so I am hoping we can stop or screw it up. Come one people believe in the penguins.

I think it's about time to cash in one of our Secondus favors on getting Cawl here so he can start finally getting shit done. He has a big backlog that I've outlined and the Galaxy needs him to at least finish Primaris, Rubicon and rebuild the Grey Knights. Especially given the thinning of the veil.
 
What, really?
We can't just tell the Eldar or Necrons where it is?
As pointed out literally all the big players are busy as hell dealing with major issues. The Eldar are constantly putting out fires all over the galaxy including stopping the Nids that made it past the war in the void. The Necrons are currently fighting the war in the Void against the deadliest variations of Tyranids specifically desiged to fight Necrons. And the Krork are fighting an eternal war with the Orc with Waaghs getting constantly thrown their way.
 
Cawl here so he can start finally getting shit done
The problem and the reason why one need a favor for bringing the guy that needs to study warp to improve the space marines is that is doing work for Secondus that focus on elites. So he probably is helping boosting the guys there and studying the true born SM. So they really need the guy to help in the war.

but I also think with the second conference and the trade of even more warp knowledge will probably help him get closer to where he is in canon (if I understand that correctly). So I will cross my fingers in the hope that this century is productive to him and that he can bring more of the potential of the SM to all (human) sane factions.

Our biological mars priest is already bullshit enough anyway^^. he can crit success with a 57 when study The Race of Biological mass production psykers^^.

The problem is they're still loosing the war with or without Cawl. Thankfully the Big G is having a large impact (more than Cawl I'd think) but big enough that they gave us two Honorbounds for bringing him back while Cawl is only worth one Honorbound. I'd like to *hope* he's finally making progress on Primaris thanks to our notes but nothing beats being able to work with the stuff in person.

Max is bullshit yes but he has nothing to do with Primaris.

This talk made me curious of how better the 'average' cultivation of the organs/material and the implementation are thanks for the dark age tech. If having virtual reality to train the surgery how many times they wanted and if the average score of the SM/mars priest that do the process is raising from the better understanding of science.

Because in the end of the day I don't think that all SM receive the absolute best team to create them all the time (but certainly great or amazing ones). And these guys are, biological speaking, immortals. so this is probably very frustrating for those leaders that treat (and feel) that their subordinates are their sons (specially the primarchs).
 
Aside from stuff dependent upon the Men of Iron and Men of Stone, how far below the peak of the DAoT are we exactly? Was the stuff we're looking at researching now, like the Ultimate Shield, Singularity Thrusters, Naval Neutron Guns, and upgraded Gravitic Engines, the peak of DAoT tech? Or was all of that superseded by other, more advanced tech, which is still well beyond our reach?
 
Current Mechanicus Unrest 8/10
10/10 guarantees civil war

Vanaheim - 71% support, 29% opposition
Midgard -97% support, 3% opposition
Avernus - 100% support, 0% opposition
Alfheim - 95% support, 5% opposition
Asgard- 99% support, 1% opposition
Other-96% support, 4% opposition

Military - 95% support, 5% opposition
Titan Legions - 81% support, 3% opposition
Explorator -100% support, 0% opposition
Biologis - 100% support, 0% opposition
What's the Mechanicus Unrest sitting at now? This hasn't been updated in a while it looks like. Have we done anything to reduce the Unrest recently?

We don't have anything to reduce Unrest. Short of miraculously being able to do something like build the Garguantuan Forge-Hives and their Cathedrals. The civil war is coming.

7 or 8 is the current level. And when the current temple is done the unrest goes down again because it is the largest temple possible and the first one plus the center of the Admech.
 
No Midgard and Vanaheim will be sending out psykers they are the non combat focused schools for psykers
Doesn't Avernus produce something like 99% of the trust's psykers, and is almost certainly the most active centre of psyker research among human polities across the galaxy? Seems we would have more people to spare and many who will have researched the bees.

Never forget how bullshit Avernus is.

No we do not. We have a higher percentage of higher level psykers is all. Both Vanaheim and Midgard have far larger populations and less dangers to their Psykers each makes as many if not more psykers than we do. And again our psykers are mostly battle psykers for the bees you want Sanctionites not battle psykers which the other two branches make more of.
 
Y5: Sit Down and Talk with your Grandosn ( Come up with good write in)

write in : "Grandson I am sorry I should have known better than to bring up marriage before your first century and understand it was to soon to bring the matter up after all your mother , father and grandmother all didn't marry until they were over a century old but in my defense I just really wanted grand kids to spoil as I didn't get the chance the first time around by the way if you don't want to be governor that's fine its not the kind of job you can force on the unwilling . I am gonna see if Jacob wants to be groomed for the position instead "

No. But I feel that I'm going to need a third opinion as I can't recall WoG quotes here and just saying that you're wrong is a pretty pointless argument.
 
How about we *not* go and groom Jacob without actually checking to see if he even wants the job? Really, we should just do a check to see who meets the criteria of being the Governor of Avernus. Which for the players is good Martial, Admin, Piety, and Combat. And no, Jacob only meets two out of the four. Assuming we want our governor to actually lead the military.

All that us needed for Piety is a nongarbage value.

M 30+
A 25+
I 20+
D 20+
L 20+
P 20+
C 35+

If Psyker:
Control > Power

Increase stat reqs by 5 except for Combat.

Considering that this has been stated by the QM before that Midgard and Vanaheim produce a lot of the Trust Psykers that aren't battle psykers and the doc that is used to track psyker numbers for all three also support this. You don't really have anything to support your own claims that 99% of psykers come from Avernus.
