The most optimistic hope is something like a Dune Heighliner for civilian trade that can at least relocate to safer space.
there are several TROs for that in the thread.

We have Mobile gateway FTL ships in the thread???
highliner style ships. basicly collar max ships that can contain hundreds if not thousands of passengers and hundreds of Ktons of cargo.

ah wait. Not heighliners. More like mobile Stellaris-style gateways.

Our FTL doesn't open a portal or gateway, we basically spin up the drive and input the exit coordinates before popping across space-time in an instant. If we ever got the technology to link two points in space in such a matter that would shake the foundations of power across humanity itself.

Jebus i didnt mean exactly Stellaris. I meant the possibility of ship scale gateway that uses the same mechanisms as our prototype teleporter.
Are talking mobile ftl gate or startrek Transporter?

Trek's transporter is more small scale though. More FTL gate. Basically take the current prototype, and refine it enough to make it ship scale. This essentially means sublight ships can "do FTL" as well, so to speak. Just use the FTL gate to travel to point B.
Even if Prom allows this in a future sequel, though, i dont see it as replacing jump or warp travel. At best this is more like a train that gets you from region A to region B. Still have to do some more traveling to reach specific systems.

Military Requisition And Design
You have 4 out of 4 Requisition Points to spend on upgrading Helghan's ground forces. These upgrades are given to all active armies at once, though the more armies you have the longer it'll take to roll out changes.
Requisition
[] Emergency Teleporter: Developed in secret by a team probing some of the stranger interactions between Petrusite and the rest of the universe, this wearable device allows those equipped to teleport up to 200 metres away… with no control over their landing point and a lengthy recharge period. Difficult to manufacture and terminally hostile to automata, this technology can only effectively be used by a small number of personnel who consider a random exit point less dangerous than wherever they currently are—requirements that fit Republic special forces to a T.
[] Teleport Beacons: Affectionately known as Spawn Beacons by the Republic's rather macabre special forces, teleport beacons serve as anchors for the newly developed teleporter technology, arcane and rather scary physics allowing them to attract the exit points generated by any teleporters within range of the beacon. Primarily useful for large scale teleporters, teleport beacons allow for the rapid and precise deployment of special forces personnel to the target location, though only after the fragile beacon is set up in a time-consuming process.

I think that's everything up to date, but let me know if I've messed anything up.

Aren't we down to 3 or 4 action points now?

IIRC, 4. Two were locked in with the Taurian Outback.

That would be a terrible idea. We do not want spheroids fighting spheroids right now.

Also, there is no way that we can get the FedSuns to do anything we want. Asking directly will get them to laugh in our faces and trying a false flag is only going to expose whatever agents we have to arrange such a false flag and let them know that we're trying to start a Federated Suns-Draconis Combine War when it would be way too stupid and OOC for either party to actually do that (and sparking an FS-DC War is a card we want to save for round 2 with the Fedrats in a hypothetical sequel).
i really think we should pull back our ships from the Draconis Combine as things is getting bad for them in terms of losing a massive amount of manpower, and are now throwing there civilian JumpShips as military transports. So without our ships they will suffer a bit more loses

why would we want that happen though ? , a strong Draconis Combine is good for us geo politically as it acts as major threat against the Federated Suns, keeping their army tied down on the Suns Combine boarder and thus limiting any military ambitions they might have in our direction
i am hoping for the fedsuns to attack the DC after the clan war is over as they will be weak, and with them taking a lot of worlds will come with its own problems that the fedsuns will have to deal with. And of course DC will be wanting those worlds back, so the fedsuns are gonna have to deal with a other war in a few years

I thank that would weaken the DC too much between the mauling from the clans and the LC's own willingness to fuck over the DC, they might see them never recover without some ComStar issue plot armor which is bad for us as that might give the FedSuns a free hand to fight with ORDI
if the DC can never recover, that would be a good thing, as they are the only bad guy faction left in the IS left, so if the Fedsuns and LC want to take a pieces out of them, then let them

[X] Plan: Autocrats... Assemble!
-[X] Expand FedSuns intelligence network: Having placed a large number of agents within the lower levels of FedSuns society, now would be a good time to capitalize on the effort and expand the Republic's reach.
-[X] URC Politics
--[X] Seeing the URC's own rebuilding and development efforts stonewall because of the continuing political instability in the region, the Helghan Republic sends a representative to deliver a proposition to the URC member states, that the nation be split in 2 by primary political alignment of each URC planet, with the world of Firgrove being integrated into the FAS if they agree to the transfer as it's political alignment is closer with them than any of their URC neighbors. Plebiscites will be held, with an informal expectation that the Neo-Jacobists and Maoists will focus their outreach and messaging efforts on planets that can be integrated into stable interstellar nation-states. Failure to come to a long-term agreement with each other and continued instability will make the following agreement with ORDI partners fall through / be considered reneging.
--[X] Each new state will be supported by either the Helghan Republic or Capellen Confederation (us finally calling in that extra support deal) which should allow rebuilding to continue at the same pace as before the political instability, with no sanction or acrimony from ORDI as a whole regarding the security situation or offers of continued support going forward.
--[X] However, should this proposal be refused and political instability continue to mount, make it clear that should conflict erupt in the nation that Helghan will redistribute its rebuilding and development effort in the Outback until political stability is achieved in the URC, out of concern for its highly skilled personnel coming to harm. Helghan will however continue its humanitarian efforts and aid refugees who seek assistance at locations our Peacekeepers maintain, but this is reasonably the most we can promise if conflict should break out.
-[X] Deploy Spy Ships: Though not as effective as they would be within, say, the Federated Suns, deploying Hyde-class surveillance vessels to Clan-held regions will improve the ORDI's ability to gather information substantially.
-[X] Operation Santiago Phase 9
-[X] New guidelines for the operation are three-pronged, in order of priority.
--[X] Part 1
-[X] Recognition of the Clan fleet presently based near Pomme De Terre as an existential threat-in-being. Intelligence assets must maintain sight of this fleet. Commodore Ostergaard will utilize the limitations of enemy KF drives and advantages of Warp drives to refuse battle to any naval force that ORDI captains are not confident they can defeat until sufficient forces can be gathered to destroy them, and if possible catch them out of position and eliminate them in totality before they can pose a threat to allied worlds.
--[X] Part 2
-[X] Ensuring the military readiness of the Wolf's Dragoons and the further strengthening of defenses of worlds in the invasion corridors of Clan Wolf and Clan Ghost Bear, intending to make it as difficult as possible for them to move forward and if at all possible do more than merely blunt their momentum. Build kill zones, fortifications, and depots. If they refuse battle, we stage raids and disorganize them with saboteurs in their backlines, otherwise, stop them cold.
--[X] Part 3
-[X] Diplomacy
-[X] Press the Lyrans to bring the Suns to the field.
-[X] Open negotiations with the Free Worlds League for an expeditionary military force to be sent to the FRR, prioritizing elite MechWarrior units. The value of Clanner technology salvage should be fairly obvious.
-[X] Negotiate with ComStar for assistance with the Lothan Factory Complex. Priority and access to it for supplies for completely hypothetical ComGuard units operating in the region will be baked into the agreement (we should have some parts commonality).
-[X] Ask Jamie Wolf if he has another Clanner secret weapon or miracle in his back pocket.
-[X] Intelligence sharing.
--[X] Military Requisition
-[X] Emergency Teleporter: Developed in secret by a team probing some of the stranger interactions between Petrusite and the rest of the universe, this wearable device allows those equipped to teleport up to 200 meters away… with no control over their landing point and a lengthy recharge period. Difficult to manufacture and terminally hostile to automata, this technology can only effectively be used by a small number of personnel who consider a random exit point less dangerous than wherever they currently are—requirements that fit Republic special forces to a T.
-[X] Teleport Beacons: Affectionately known as Spawn Beacons by the Republic's rather macabre special forces, teleport beacons serve as anchors for the newly developed teleporter technology, arcane and rather scary physics allowing them to attract the exit points generated by any teleporters within range of the beacon. Primarily useful for large-scale teleporters, teleport beacons allow for the rapid and precise deployment of special forces personnel to the target location, though only after the fragile beacon is set up in a time-consuming process.

Are you sure that it wouldn't be better to do Expand FedSuns intelligence network and both reduce the difficulty of NAIS Infiltration and get a better idea of what the Feds are up to?
