1) What Magic Disciplines do we have that do not soft/hard-lock you out of our other magic disciplines?
1) most of your base diciplines
songweaving
Rune
tramnsumation
2. Has the Machine Spirit relevations changed anything with trying to combine Chamon or Technomancy?
2. not so far
but the revelations are years old at most
2) Do we have any updates on this (Technomancy-Chamon interactions in light of Machine Spirits), especially since our mastery with Chamon has advanced quite a lot since?
2) dont interact paticular much
3) Given reality is bust right now around the dragon, how viable are these as rituals?: "World of Illusions: Transforms reality into a falsehood controlled by the ritual casters. Requires: Presumably a lot of casters, likely a fay directing it, duration: unsure, casting time: A while)
4) "Invert: Reverses normal laws of reality in an area. Gravity makes you lighter, friction makes you slide faster etc. Makes technology useless. Requires: A Slann, lots of support and a lot ton of bravery, casting time: a while, duration a few hours, potentially permanent.)
5) Time's Due: Lashes out against something which has arrived faster than it should, freezing it in place until time is right again. (Caster: At least 1 Slann trained in chronomancy, duration: Not too long against the dragon, casting time fast). Based on my understanding of how Alcubierre drives work 😛
3) 4) works to an extent
1) 3) 4) works to an extent: As in 3 and 4 or just 4?
1) just 4
6) How many longships are being produced per galactic decade in the rest of the Trust excluding Helheim?
6) right now?
half a dozen
that is changing though
as you were one of the fasest to build your inital shipyards
reember its been 20 years since the Grand Concalve
and 15 since you got enough understanding of them to start building
7) How does Tallship-Longship transportation work?
7) tallships tend to traport cargo containers between systems
the cargo contariers are laoded and unoad with a mix of pullies and beastpower onto longships
which then land it at docks where they are unlaoded by modern tech
most of the time the tallship only carries a couple of longships
with the longships instead being based out of the system
8) We're debating whether the primal is viable for truly bulk goods like metal transport where we ship trillions of tons. That seems impossible without heavy machinery (not possible to use that in primal to move from longship to tallship) or magic which would likely be too expensive. Is there an effective limit on what sort of cargo they can practically move?
8) theyc an mass carry metal
mostly via a mix of good engineering including designs and the fact that avernite beasts of burdern have way more strength then normal animals
compared to laoding a macrocannon with human pulled pullies, loading a 100kt train cart with stegadon powered pullies is really effective
9) So did Clonegrim pass the rolls? I feel like he and Emps have a lot in common with how much they sort of messed up while under influence.
9) as far as you know no
3) Could we develop a psyker talent revealing chamber with psychic architecture, perhaps using true glass, that people could be run through on a large scale?
3) maybe
10) Could we do a feasibility of this to see if it's viable? Cause I imagine Tamia can do some rough math to figure out if a PA Psyker Awakening/Identifying Chamber would be cheap enough to introduce in enough places to be worth it or if it's so expensive that we could only make one that wouldn't have the throughput to be useful for an entire planet.
10) you could
11) For the Slann, does Starquake cross the line between "a kid makes a flashbang with their young chemist's kit" and "garage-assembled IED"?
11) it does
12) What's more difficult, making one primarch the way Emperor did in embers, or primarch-ifying an existing warp entity/god the way modern lore seems to suggest Emperor has done?
12) you dont know
13) I thought exalted was the maximum size a warp entity could be and be able to operate in materium directly. Is it different for incarnations or Anatolian's ka-ness allows him to subvert that restriction?
13) it is
the Anatolian is basicly restircting himself to Exalted power when incarnating
14) Is it fair to say, Anatolian's domains are a mix of specific unrestricted domains he got from archetype ascension and restricted ones he got from his worshippers?
14) yes
15) Does Nurgle technically have access to Plague-Devouring-Plague too, on the grounds that it's a subdomain of Plague, and just never uses it for obvious reasons?
15) he does
16) How did light of Astronomican reach Tyranids through the frozen warp of intergalactic void?
16) you dont know if it even did
or if theya re coming because it is the nearest galaxy to the alst one that ate
2) Is Moriana still around?
2) no
3) What's her background here? Was she really just a talented Inquisitor who got fed up with the Imperium, or is there something more to it?
3) talented inquisitor half possesed by something Old
17) Any idea what that thing was? A daemon? Some xenos thing?
17) non daemon warp being
18) What was the Ouroboros in Embers? Did it die during the destruction of Caliban?
18) did not exist
19) Is the Paragon progress for our Psyker Hunters for a single guy our for a group Paragon?
19) a single guy
20) How much more EP do the Caverns give compared to Psyker Hunting?
20) multiple times
1) You said a hypothetical god of Therapy would be good at dealing with gods but rather bad at handling mortals. Where do transcendent gods fall under this?
a) The Anatolian in particular?
1) somewhere in between
a) you dont know
1) Does Solariel also hate Mathlann as much as Be'lakor does, or did nobody tell him about the plan to save Dragonslayers and their equipment during the Fall being ruined?
1) he does
2) How in the world did the Eldar pantheon not notice the Slaanesh godseed until it was too late, when they're supposed to be paying attention to the Eldar? Was Atharti just bad at communicating that she was getting way less juice than she theoretically should've been?
2) they noticed and destoyed the first few godseeds
but eventuly ran out of power enough that they could not take it
3) Can preexisting religious gods gain or lose domains depending on new beliefs among their worshippers? Like a developing civilization insisting their god of Invention and Artisanship is now also god of Technology
3) theyc an
1) Was Atharti only the goddess of pleasure that didn't involve the suffering of nonconsenting parties, rather than all of Pleasure? Hence why her juice got cut off later on
1) sort of
2) Is there a way to make an arcane fulcrim summoned via high magic permanent?
2) no
3) Do we know where Mathalann the sunnovabitch is BTW? Given how he screwed everyone over in the past I don't want to risk him coming out with a steel chair?
3) you dont
4) Out of curiosity did Ant know about archetypes in detail when he made the primarchs? Given that he had one himself at the time I assume he had some understanding, but that he also didn't know some of their underlying mechanics when he did the thing, which resulted in unintended consequences.
4) not in detail
1) Didn't investigate it due to personal disdain for the concept?
1) pretty much
4) pretty much: If he had known would he have done things differently, or given how unlikely the primarchs were even in those circumstances is it fair to say that the only reason he wouldn't have proceeded is hindsight basically?
4) yep
2) What generated his antipathy towards gods? I assume more due to things like the need for worship and their potential to surpress the free expression of those under them, since I imagine its not a result of being strong innately?
2) a few bad early experiences (himself included)
3) a few bad early experiences (himself included): His time as Ramasses, but did like some orphan gods take up residence on earth? Since humanity shouldn't have been able to sustain a god of any level given the modern population requirements.
3) one or two
also various encounters after hummanity left earth
includeding a couple of human gods
5) Hoeth had any luck indexing the staff info, or too much risk of blowing his head out at this stage to be worth it?
5) not had the time
3) To the best of his knowledge did the shamen make him to be a way for them to survive in some fashion or was he made to protect humanity? Or just a sorta mixture, since the Shamen were presumably a fairly large group.
3) mixture
4) How long would it take to make the dragon slayers latest generation of anti-dragon weapons? Asking for the future mostly since we obviously can't make them RN.
4) its less the time to make them
which is decades
and more the time to develop the expertise to make the tools to make them
and so on
1) Yeah the only way I figured we could get around that was if Lizardmen tech could do it, but since these were specialist eldar stuff for the most part I imagine they're designed so only eldar can operate the machines to do it?
1) pretty much
5) How do those weapons compare to the high end WIH weapons? Like black stone fortresses?
5) better
2) better: That sixty million years of development time payin off I see.
2) yep
5) Pfft, I gotta ask. The primarchs all male cause they're all partially clones of him, or was he just in the sort of head space where he did not think about it at all?
5) basicly clones of him
6) Also he want Cawl and his custodes back?
6) nah
1) That's a tick, are Cawl's custodes a bit different from the norm due to having been isolated from him for a while? Bit more independent etc?
1) you dont know
2) Do Slann have Songweaving or some analogue?
2) an analogue yes
1) Plausibility of either omake?
The Kaleva Triplets
omakes
Guiding the Chances
1) triplets dont work
guiding chanes is plusable
1) Triplets don't work: In what sense, the idea itself, the individual descriptions, the feats?
1) the idea itself
2) The idea itself: What about the general idea of a Slann trio working better together than expected? To the extent that the other omake shows them?
2) that works
2) Would upgrading cogitator-using relics with soul AI tech break their relicness?
2) yes
3) Is the person who discovered the machine spirits spirit awakening principles involved in the soul AI project?
3) yes
1) Did Charles negociate with Malcador to keep his eyes out of the nine realms area or was he keeping his head down?
1) he did
well a mix of negotiate and point out that the Nine Worlds were intimitly connected to Avernus
and that it would be a really bad idea if secrets were found that required the deployment of foces that might piss of Avernus
1) "Ultimate Shield: Part Two" was listed as having 305/306 with DC 200. Wouldn't that be a Critical Success?
1) if it was something that could be critted on yes
2) Has Zahhak made any new Blackened since the old ones all died in the Storm of Judgement?
2) no
3) Does Chaos have any Planetaries?
3) not really
5) Is Fundamentals: Vortex weaponry estimated to be useful?
a) Ditto but for Psychic Creator: Vortex?
5) not the player
6) in a Sane win where Lin was still alive, would he eventually end up to be the best/only therapist for God's and other powerful beings?
6) maybe
7) how far to the next update I need my hit ?
7) a while
extra shifts
8) How much benefit would we expect to get from "Fundamentals: Antimatter Technology" for the improved antimatter reactors and antimatter enhanced engines research actions?
8) not the player
1) What happened to Moriana that got her killed in a non-resurrectable way or otherwise taken off the board?
1) chaos infighting is all you know
2) Do gods of narrower domains tend to do better at it in a narrative sense compared to gods with a broader domain of which the narrower one is a subdomain? Or would any extra skill the narrower god has come purely from mundane skill specialization?
2) usually yes
3) Was Zahhak ever white?
3) yeah, she is a white dragon now
just has black hair in human form
1) What level of major is the Emperor at?
1) low
2) What level of major would he be if he started eating the souls of all his faithful?
2) low
3) Can he eat the souls of his faithful? I've been assuming he could since that was part of his narrative for quite a while
3) unknown
4) Why don't eldar gods have daemons?
4) not in their narrative
1) Changed a few things. Still implausible or fixable? htps://docs.google.com/document/d/1Qf2WGK2YTiUMlsXBOb1QXJofdV6RTlJ0wHWVXJDRi2E/edit?usp=drivesdk
1) that works
1) From what Vlad can tell, with their main chaotic competitors in the assassins, (well aside from Tzeentch in general) gone, and Omegon dead were the alpha legion becoming more effective due to having more consolidated leadership (inspite of Alpharius's general insanity.)
1) yes
2) Out of curiosity in sparks verse is it fair to say that Horus generally being somewhat well put together was more despite emps than because of him?
2) yeh
3) Also I forgor to bring it up at the time, but has Ant been informed of the blood angel situation? I imagine he's in the same situation as...well everyone in regards to them (AKA does not know WTF is going on there), but just in case.
3) he has
and yeah had a big WTF moment
4) IIRC You said the first god Avernus would be making was one for cleaning up the warp, but as a rule of thumb is basically any god concept something Avernus can concivably make given enough time (and assuming no chaos connection?)
4) yes
5) Has colour theory lost some power in recent years due to the orks no longer being around, or has it become somewhat self reinforcing?
5) become self reinorcing
6) If God A makes a deal with God B (a death god) to host an afterlife for God A's followers, do the gods still need to be in constant contact with one another to keep the deal going, or do all souls that are supposed to go to God A automatically get rerouted to God B's afterlife even if God A is cut off from contact?
6) it varies with the narrative and why the contact was broken
7) Was Cypher and Celestine dying just...really shitty luck? Or was that narrative? Sorry I'm sure this has been asked, but I can't find it.
7) Cypher was narrative
Celestine was shitty luck
8) Is it fair to say that Ant's God-King awe aura is problematic for his desire to not reinvigorate any faiths in him, as it presumably means that anyone who touches or is touched by his power is going to get blasted with "God-King worship him" energy, whether he likes it or not?
8) yes
9) Probably a bad idea, but would it be possible to combine the power amplification of the golden throne with the power amplification of an arcane conduit? I predict big explosion, but still.
9) you could and it would either be a massive power boost
a continent shattering+ boom
or both
10) Since people have been proposing the idea of Ynnead taking in human souls I feel like there are problems with this idea? Setting aside whether such a deal would even work, but I get the impression that a large chunk of why their current system works is that Ynnead is specifically doing it to eldar souls, which cuts down on the costs, creates a stronger pull between her and the souls (even when she's in the webway) and eldar souls produce a lot more faith than humans even as souls. If she started taking in humans would the sheer mass of souls (we are rather big in terms of population) out weigh the additional costs and strain placed on her from expanding the after life, gathering the souls etc.
10) one of the big issues is that she cant take human souls
she amanged a work around for the triumvettes followers
but that is empwoered by a divine sacrifice, and then written into the fabric of the warp by the Grand Ritual
1) Is Ant using his faith stores for anything particularly interesting, or has he just been using all of it on buffing his Custodes who are fighting in the Dragon War?
1) he is saving a lot of them
hoping that he can use them to help make the anti dragon superweapon
1) Where does Ants get the humans for his Custodes 2.0?
1) Trazyns exhibits
2) If Aria's unique powers prove to be worth the hype, will she have good chances of getting an archetype due to her unique status?
2) maybe
1) How many more years galaxy time do we have before Vaul is up?
1) around a decade
2) According to the Necrons, what's their best understanding of what the C'tan are?
2) either some sort of star parisite
or soemthing that formed before stars were a thing
4) Not sure if this is answered but on what Tech Level would Great Crusade - Horus Heresy Era Imperium be in?
4) probebly around 13 on average
way higher then 40k Imperium
but not as high as 40k mech
I would say 30k mechancius would be 16ish
1) How often (if ever) do Inquisition Psykers come back to the Telepathica for remedial training/update their knowledge (with constant mega advancements in magic)/etc?
1) pretty often
2) Are the Necrons willing to tell us why stars in particular have ka, which something usually associated with living organisms?
2)they dont know
3) What time range is the Troll Orichalcum upgrade project?
3) you meant he one combining it with Wraithbone?
they hope to finish within a century, three at most
1) No, the one using the World's notes on Eternal.
1) ah
less then a century to make something
then multiple centuries to make it something that double digit numbers of trolls can make
1) How do we start looking into details about Vulkan's Constant thing? Feasibility, diplo, GD, or direct Telepathica research?
1) you dont
1) As in he's way too busy for any kind of examination?
1) as in far more advanced races have spent tens of thousands of years looking intot hem and got scraps
the chacne of you getting anything is close enough to zero to be zero
2) Are Impalers as to APA as Lasguns are to PA?
2) nah
smaller difference
1) Is the Nightbringer actually "dead" (as in its part of reality damaged), or just normally shattered?
1) shattered you think
2) Does anyone have any idea what part of reality Qah embodied that was destroyed with its death from Slaanesh?
2) no
3) Does Chaos Sorcery actually require the compliance or nonhostility of the god you are invoking?
3) to an extent
4) Is this only people like the Eldar and Necrons, or did the Old Ones themselves get stumped?
4) the OO themselves made some progress but did not solve it
5) Have the odds of a psyker-psyker couple on Avernus having a psychic child remained static (iirc 1%) or has it increased/decreased?
5) increased but by decimal places
6) Are our psykers allowed to watch Ribbit's Relay Construction?
6) yes
1) How advanced were the Rashan, TL wise?
1) 30+
1) Can Devas of the Triumvirate happen before the Grand Ritual? Like, using their current domains and all.
1) yes
2) What would happen if the Doomed One was given the Widowmaker?
2) unknown exacty what
but he would die soon
3) Hypothetical Primarchs back in time to the HH, but if they needed to get empy into time out do they think they could safely do it themselves, or would this be a "go see if that time period's AO's got some free time?" sorta situation. Then let him sit on emps.
3) if it was all the current ones they would probebly be able to do it if they could arrange to gang up on him
4) If now Russ had to intervene to stop the burning of Prospero (lets say before it happened, but the wolves are in orbit), what would he do? As I understand Magnus was waiting to be carted off, but also wasn't communicating this fact to Russ, Russ was waiting in orbit and had chaotic infiltrators in his fleet and then Ahriman did an Ahriman and shot at them. Supplex Ahriman and the infiltrators and call his past self and Magnus a pair of self obsessed cry babies? 😄
4) less call them cry babies
more idiots incapable of basic communication
1) If the Chaos gods had known it was the Emperor keeping the Void Dragon asleep, and they tried to keep the Emperor alive for as long as possible to prevent the Dragon from waking. How long would they have been able to keep that up?
1) given that the Emperor arranged his own death
not very long at all
1) Did the necrons loose a few C'tan to the nids? As in enough of a C'tan's shards that they can consider it lost (mostly relevant for the confirmed constants?)
1) yes
2) They willing to talk about the nids final mutation? Beyond what is suspected, that being it was bad.
2) no
3) If it becomes clear that the Sane are definitely going to win the Long Night, is Be'lakor likelier to switch sides (like the Everchild) or would he likely just vacate the galaxy?
3( vacate the galaxy
4) Does Chaos ever wonder if the Green Awakening due to Krork was an intended side effect for the Eldar?
4) they do sometimes
among other things it provided a major distraction fr their foes
and cover for the Krork while they built up to a level that they cant be taken
