Hey, so as per request I made a thread:

http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=151256.0

It's a really ugly and bad prototype, but it's something.

Bug/QoL(?)  Clicking on "All Vehicles" then "Load" straight away ends up not showing any available ships. You have to click on and select (not deselect) an individual vehicle first as far as I can tell.
This has been fixed in the upcoming patch.

Hey, Duke, nice to see the new update. I don't know if it is a bug but sometimes my ships stay stuck in star system and I won't be able to select any longer. I can deploy the troops on the planets but it is extremely annoying to lose a strike cruiser with the 1st group in it. Also, the fleet screen stop showing the battle barge in it after a few turns.

Thanks for the game.
I'm still not sure what is causing this but if you send another ship to that system, and the two merge into a new fleet, it unfreezes that first vessel.  You are welcome.

I found that demo quite amusing- it's a good proof-of-concept for trading vessels.  In the past people have suggested raiding trade vessels as a way to make income, as Chaos or Renegade, so I may end up doing something similar down the line.  People have also suggested making planets more communicative/interactive with one another, and that would be a good way to do it.  Hives requiring trade vessels from agri worlds and so on.  Time will tell.

Would be interesting to see the Imperium full on at work. Black Ships traveling from sector to sector picking up psykers, Imperial ships picking up Tithes of goods, men, or otherwise.

Thanks Duke, that one has actually been bugging me for a while.

The only way I can see that being worth adding is if it somehow affected the strategic situation of the sector. Such as causing bureaucratic snafu's in the middle of a siege, or shipping 100 baneblades away from the Imperial Guard garrison.

Flavor text.  As Chaos/Renegade, you loot any and all 'merchant' fleets and sell that loot to invisible Black Market.  Then it can be fleshed out later.

Requests to protect Black Ships by helping Inquisitorial demands to help act as a retinue for them for a while.
Protecting various ships that send goods to Forgeworlds, if you fail to protect them they may not be able to resupply your monastery or ships.
Playing nice by helping governors deal with problems messing with their major ships, gaining favor.

One doesn't need to go Chaos in order to see how they could be the backbone of a sector if they aren't helped out a bit and start failing enmass. Though of course how useful that is to the game itself is hard to know.

There is heresy, there is extra heresy, and then there is this.



I'm guessing this means there are over 7 heretics per person on the planet. Or were, because it reset to 99% once a demonic incursion happened. The maw of the Warp has yawned wide three times already. Chaos forces are clashing against Necrons.

On the subjects of ships and logistics, introducing that kind of thing would require a sufficient amount of certain planet types to be created with every sector, so Hive Worlds don't start starving on turn 1 with nothing to do about that. It might fix the issue of sectors without Forge Worlds. Needs and production could be partially tied to population size, to create more incentive to defend planets without bombarding everything into oblivion and to make war-torn areas a bit more distinct.

Yeah, I meantioned it in the other thread, but it's actually a really complicated problem to solve.  Cheating would definently be involved.

- Hi, we're conducting a census for the Imperium. Are you currently the head of this household?
- Yes.
- How many others live here?
- Let's see, there's me, the wife, and our daughter Jane.
- Great. How would you rate the heresy level in your household?
- Well, emps, I don't know... what do people say?
- Your neighbor, Bill reported being 48% heretic.
- I see. Well, we're 148% heretic.
- Sir, that is mathematically impossible.
- Nonsesnse! In fact, I forgot to count grandma, so we're 300% cultist.
- ... so she's what? 744% heretic?
- That's right. We all are! Mark it down on your holopad.
