adding onto crazed ghost rider kesar ship idea, it becomes the Legion of the Damned, every loyal imperial soul that dies and goes into the warp is visited by kesar and asked if willing to give up afterlife to continue waging war against chaos and if yes they are merged into the ship which causes it to become ever so slightly bigger, stronger, faster, or harder, and have one more crewmate within. every daemon killed or caught by the Ship is dragged straight into the heart of the ship to be fed into its reactor where kesar purifies it into pure warp energy to fuel his never ending Crusade.
That sounds so 40k and very metal as f##k! So basically Ghost Rider Kesar is pac man.
 
So can we switch out for doing tech stuff instead of rune stuff? Because there are some really nice techs we could get that do all kinds of good things for us.

Like Void Shield Possible Mass Upgrade and Higher Order Fundamental Modeling for the Void Shield Mass Upgrade Implementation tech, which will let us see what we need to mass upgrade our Void Shields.

Or a similar set of things but for Teleportation. With the Teleportarium Range Upgrade and Teleportation Safety – Paragon : Requires Teleportarium Range Upgrade + ??? with fundamental modeling to figure out what the requirement is. We could put 8 action years into that, still do the silver and the anathema runes, and next turn get safe teleportation for us and anyone we share it with! That would be absolutely massive.

You can yes, although due to how rune research slots are, you could only switch out a max of 5 action years worth.

The rune planet would also be absolutely massive, in fact it's one of the pillars propping up our relationship with the wider IA. Skipping out on it is a bad idea. Furthermore the rune of subtlety was considered important enough to be worth spending time on back before the crusade, when most of the same projects were on the table.

The IA doesn't actually care about the rune planet, it's a money sink to them, not something that gives them benefits.

Like I mentioned in my Aldrich omake, Baldur only convinced the IA to continue because of the promise of keeping psykers off the battlefield and seeing a possible return in investment in the form of psykers with better self-control. So far the IA hasn't actually seen that yet.

Pretty much, the IA at this time is extremely results focused, and the rune planet has yet to get those results

Ironically, with Aldrich leaving soon, this ends any possible attempts at the Wardens having to issue out runes to certain individuals unless Aldrich planned on that being a contracted amount regardless of political circumstances. Granted, I'd love to see Eli continue the practice just on the grounds of "Sure, you guys are free to continue with the rune planet! Did you want some more money while you are at it?"
 
[X] Plan: Silvery Subtle Anathema Styles a new Symbol.
-[X] Rune Planet (5 action years)
-[X] Rune of Subtlety (3/8 years) (3 action years)
-[X] Rune of Silver (1 action year)
-[X] Rune of Anathema (1 action year)
-[X] Start reading the information provided by the Emperor, while you will need a dedicated sit-down, having some context is still valuable
-[X] Make a new symbol for the Wardens to commemorate the victory over the Maelstrom
-[X] Look into the Vigilance's machine spirit, after the Maelstrom War it's likely grown

How many years left are there for the Rune Planet... and for the Monument planet? Also, is this the same time-block we have for the last time we did infrastructure? I admit my understanding of time in this quest has... kinda gone warpy.

The rune planet has quite a few years on it as its essentially made of several stages once you reach a closer point to the end I'll share exactly how long it is, but right now it's more than 10 years out at minimum. The monument world's next stage finishes year 62. This is the same time block as infrastructure I just spread them out far more than I should have making things feel later.

and this is the same time-block where we skipped tech for socials?
 
Perhaps it might be illuminating to also see what the other Primarchs are up too for projects/socials/tech/whatever this year as well.
 
Right. Okay, what kind of action year benefit would we get from not sending Kesar out to combat for a year, and instead doing tech/runes/socials? Because we might want to do that if the benefit is big enough, because there are some really really good techs to grab if we just found the time.
When/if our psyker powers awake Kesar will be cripple for a turn so we planned to use that turn to just research.

Due to how the turn system works with 5 years, not crusading for the turn would give you 3 extra action years. However, as I kind of borked the order of things, Kesar has already crusaded this turn and so can't do it this turn for runic research.

Just finished binging this after 2 days, great quest happy to join.

Always happy to have new viewers.
