[X] Vote Suggestion 2
-[x] We have agreed to and currently in talks with Dragon's nest in forming a single polity. When combined and given all our technology, together we will be able to quadruple our current military strength. As well as giving them a boost they will also be able to upgrade. While we are all worrried about the Tyranids they are not the only problem we are facing. With a Waagh in the region expected to hit the chaos polities we need are allies even more and tech exchange will help them and us greatly. For those of you worrried about tech theft we do have agreements helping Dragon's nest with their spy problem.

[X] Vote Suggestion 1
-[X] Provide Dragon's Nest will all Tier 1 and 2 technology that you have access to along with Tier 3 Technology that is intended for use by Astartes.
-[X] Point out that the Blood Dragons are still dealing with significant numbers of spies from Chaos polities, possibly including agents of the Alpha Legion. Until Grandmaster Ridcully and the Inquisition can flush them out, giving the Blood Dragons higher tier technologies poses a great risk to the Trust's future security.
-[X] Argue that the higher-tier technology transfer will not help the Blood Dragons in the coming war against the Tyranids, as they will not have sufficient time necessary to upgrade the industries required to construct and maintain the high-tier technologies.
-[X] Waiting until the end of the current Tyrannic War will let us assess the future strategic situation better, as we will be certain which the local Chaos polities will continue to be security threats to the Trust.
[X] Support Autarch Amnedor Landeer (75% chance, diplomacy check (DC 70) increase chanced)-You believe that the experience at larger scale conflicts that Autarch Landeer posseses makes him the best high commander.
-[X] Amnedor's experience in coordinating sector-wide war will be the most sorely needed capability in containing the Tyranids.
[X] Deploy twenty-four Guard Armour Groups and two Elite Army Groups - These forces should provide a significant boost to the ground defences, but would lead to replacement issues if massive losses are sustained (50% of all Guard, 20% of all elites) -35% base chance
[X] Push forward- You have come this far, you are not willing to falter on the final stretch. - One DC 230 roll, one DC 160 plague roll, then retreat. On survival earn honourbound favour from Eldar, on death earn minor favour
[X] Attempt to claim the position yourself (66% chance, diplomacy check (DC 75) increase chanced )- You believe that you would be the best choice as High Commander, and are willing to devote the time that will be needed to fill this position.
[X] Deploy thirteen PDF Army Groups, twelve Guard Armour Groups and one Elite Army Group- These forces should provide a boost to the ground defences, while being replaceable even if massive losses are sustained (2% of all PDF, 25% of all Guard, 10% of all elites) -21% base chance
[X] Semi-Compromise Option 1/2
-[X] Provide Dragon's Nest will all Tier 1 and 2 technology that you have access to along with Tier 3 and Tier 4 Technology that is intended for use by Astartes.
-[X] The Blood Dragons are still dealing with significant numbers of spies from Chaos polities, possibly including agents of the Alpha Legion. Until Grandmaster Ridcully and the Inquisition can flush them out, giving the Blood Dragons higher tier technologies poses a great risk to the Trust's future security.
-[X] Higher-tier technology transfer will not significantly help the Blood Dragons in the coming war against the Tyranids, as they will not have sufficient time necessary to upgrade the industries required to construct and maintain the high-tier technologies en masse.
-[X] The higher tier technologies intended for Astartes, however, should both be implementable to great effect within the short time frame as well as being exclusive in use enough that they would be difficult to steal.
[X] Fall Back- You have mapped out almost all of the path and confirmed Isha's presence, with the plague in you pushing forward leaves to great a risk of dying and losing all that you have gained. - Retreat, earn major favour from Eldar on survival and minor favour on death.
[X] Support the third option.
-[X] A degree of aggression is likely to be required to have a suitable impact against the Tyranids, but the Trust cannot afford to gamble everything so early on. If the fleets take massive losses, then the Trust will likely be unable to defend itself once the Tyranids arrive in Sub-Sector Cobalt.
[X] Support Chapter Master Julius (75% chance, diplomacy check (DC 70) increase chanced)-You believe that the great experience of Chapter Master Julius makes him the best high commander.
[X] Prefetus Tertius Rosalinda Orlov- Prefetus Tertius Orlov is one of Edvin's proteges, a skilled architect and someone able to overseen Administratum projects if needed.

[X] Wait until Turoq lands then launch major attack- Highest chance of killing Turoq, rapid defeat of Turoq's forces, moderate ground losses and major naval losses
[X] Deploy eighteen Guard Army Groups and six Elite Army Groups - Write in for reasons explained below (37.5% of all Guard, 60% of all elites) -unknown base chance
[X] Plan Gambits:
-[X] Diplomatic Measures:
--[X] Transfer of all safe to distribute, to nearby human worlds, prioritizing those directly under threat and multi stellar polities with power projection capabilites. Safe to distribute defined her as stuff Chaos either has, or doesn't care enough to raid over. Special note for Mibu, since they actually have a name.
--[X] Approach the Necrons for aid. Offer them the honor to decapitate the head of the beast, while the Eldar handle the scraps. And take less casualties of course...
--[X] Transfer Naval Technology to the Dragon's nest. Ridicully will devote time to ensuring the Shipyards are secure.
--[X] Warn all noncorrupted polities of both threats, provide historical records and somewhat vague current estimates. If nothing else, being proven right will prove a useful long term lever. Also, it will likely immediatly leak to chaos, warning them without risking direct contact.
--[X] Attempt to gain reinforcements from nearby human and xenos polities. You doubt it will work, but it costs little to try.
---[X] Ridicully manipulates the sight of Chaos seers so they see the approaching threat, this will serve to support our own leaks.
-[X]Industrial Measures:
--[X] Conversion of Musphellim City to Forward Operating base to support offensive operations.
--[X] Fortification of Subsector Cobalt. Avernus will donate a trillion metal to the common cause. Will probably need transport though.
-[X] Initial battleplan
--[X] Focus interception fleets on as many of the 13 nondamned systems as possible, with any extra supporting orks.
--[X] Should the Nids choose not to bypass the holdouts on the second wave, we will concentrate forces to defeat some of them in detail while subjecting the others to Exterminatus.
---[X] Should the again continue after the holdouts, we divert to decimate their offensive against Amarika and leave the nids holding the bag.
[X] Support the Second Plan
-[X] It's already certain that some of the human worlds will be lost. In this way we will be able preserve our forces, which will be expected to continue warring against the Tyranids over the next decades.
[X] Support Autarch Amnedor Landeer (75% chance, diplomacy check (DC 70) increase chanced)-You believe that the experience at larger scale conflicts that Autarch Landeer posseses makes him the best high commander.
[X] Deploy sixteen Guard Armour Groups and ten Elite Army Groups - These forces should provide a massive boost to the ground defences, but major losses would be sorely felt (35% of all Guard, 100% of all elites)- 11% base chance
[X] Avernus will abstain from regular tech transfers of any kind. With the small size of the Imperial Trust, obscurity would provide a greater defence than the technology it would get from periodic advancements.
-[X] Augmentation Design x3 (1, can be taken multiple times)- One of the pinnacles of Alkahestry is the augmentation of sentients to create super-soldiers. Lulana is willing to assist with the creation of an augmentation process and teaching it to your psykers. While you will eventually be able to do the same it is most likely a century or so before your psykers reach the required skill level.
[X] Plan Kaiju Crushin' Headcrusha
-[X] Meet Headcrusha's horde with a force built around your power armoured troops - Over half a billion Power Armoured Troops are currently on Svartalfheim, allowing you to meet Headcrushas' Horde with a force entirely in power armour. This would allow you to take advantage of the poor armor penetration capacity of the majority of the Ork troops now that the Waaagh Field has weakened.
-[X] Balanced Stance- By using a mix of dug in forces, raids and sallies you would be able to greatly speed up the battle without risking to much of your forces .
-[X] Kill Headcrusha with elites- Deadly as headcrusha is even he can't stand against the full might of the Black Irons, though many lives would be lost keeping him isolated which he is worn down
--[X] They have authorization to use vortex and stasis grenades at their discretion.
-[X] Low- Continue as things are, sacrificing fighters in order to cover a campaign of harassment on the ground which would be supported by bombers.
-[X] Scry and Fry- Your Diviners could work with your other psykers to locate the most dangerous foes and take them out.
-[X] Thermonuclear Battle Tiger - Launch Deathstrikes against Headcrusha's horde, and then have Xavier lead a choir to turn the flames into a giant, fiery tiger kaiju to rampage through the Orkish lines to attack Headcrusha, as you planned to do in during the last war. No Transcendent Alpha will interfere this time!
-[X] Biomancers will provide boosts to the elites going against Headcrusha.
[x] Plan Ambush
-[x] Balanced Stance- By using a mix of dug in forces, raids and sallies you would be able to greatly speed up the battle without risking to much of your forces . -Currently selected -[x] Deploy the Last Hunters against Headcrusha- The Last Hunters equipped with the most deadly poisons of the Nyenye should be able to inflict some major wounds on Headcrusha, and may even be able to kill him. -[X] use potions to also help boost them -[x] Use space marines to lure Headcrusher into ambush -[x] Authorize vortex grenades -[x] Medium- Have your fighters move to seize control of the skies from the remaining Ork Fighter-Bombers. -
-[X] Deploy your Descents- The Decent Destroyer is designed to lay waste to armies after descending to the lower atmosphere, use them. This will also be a major benefit for your air forces as the Decents formidable AA is brought onto the field of battle.
-[X] Psyker Support - Your Diviners, Telepaths and Biomancers could support your ground and air forces, improving their impact and preserving their lives.
