Emperor I hope not Alpha Psyer's nowadays would go Chaosy so fast our heads would spin.
Not so, I believe.
If I recall correctly, mankind's evolution into a psychic race has increaesed both the number and the highest sane level. This was once beta, but is now alpha.
Is that not so,
@durin?
In any event, we need to research two STCs as fast as we can:
The Ancient Defence Cruiser is something that the Nine Worlds
really needs right now. We are degrading navally right now, due to losing ships faster than we rebuild them. The direct and indirect benefits of the ancient defence cruisers will go a long way towards allaying that, as it will allow us to build better ships, as well as to build cheapish defence ships that can challenge battleships 3:1 or so.
The other thing we need is Vanquisher cannons. We have just done mega vanquishers, so vanquishers should be unlocked now, and the sooner we do that, the more vanquishers we will have on everything by the time the orks come back armed to the tits with gargants.
We should probably prioritise both of these over pretty much anything not urgent, because we want them to have as much impact as they can before the orks arrive. I don't think there is anything in tranth's section that will not take multiple years to uncover that will have a bigger impact than those two.
We might also wish to consider setting Saren on doing the next level of congregation asps, if we have not yet unlocked the psychic research, as their hivemind/psychic choir ability, if we can get it, will be a major boon, given how many psykers we have.
