ooc: the way the game calculates stealth rolls, 10 camo does not guarantee invisibility. I remember they fixed it in Nova by giving them something like 100 camo. As it stands, you do get to see stealth ships every now and then. Not always, to be sure, but the more ship traffic is around, the better chance to see them.
They're not as much 'stealth ships' as they are 'stealthier ships'.

ooc: I have changed the camo for the next Emperor Wars update.

No all of them will have 100 camo, Imperial Eye, Decados Mantis, and built Stealth Ships all will be invisible.

I'm surprised nobody commented on Li Halan's cohabitation with Symbiotes on Midian.  Especially with all the secrecy that Duke Favius has been imposing lately...

Turn Sent
...
Firstly, this is an unfortunate announcement since I promised our Lady Regent free passage of Ministries within the Garden Worlds, this edict will remain as it regards to the Imperial Fleet, h..o..w..e..v..e..r, the Imperial Eye is forever forbidden from operating within Li Halan territories or traversing Li Halan jumpgates indefinitely.
...

Unfortunate indeed.

SCANDAL!

That pun gave me space plague. And not the good kind either.

He did mention that the Ministry created specifically to root out corruption and investigate horrific tech-heresy was no longer welcome on his worlds...
Most peculiar.

Just how much are the Symbiots paying you Flavius? The jig is up!

That Ministry is not welcome on the Garden Worlds as long the Decados oversee its operation, and the Symbiots infestation serves as leisurely target practice for the Li Halan Royal Navy.

Dearest Assembled Lords:

First off: the lies in the tabloids are libelous slander.  I was merely...taking a short vacation is all.

Now to business.  As you might expect, I have been busy planning for the upcoming elections.  Specifically, I am interested in the thoughts of the Assembly on the position of High Admiral at Stigmata.  I believe I have a path forward for the Fleet and the Eye, but I find myself uncertain in light of recent events as to a proper leader of the Garrison.

Would any of the respected Ambassadors to the Great Houses care to make a statement?

Yours,
Lady Santiago, &c.

Splendid Regent

What recent events are you alluding to that would make you question the current ministerial designation? Was it the string of successes in the offensive against the Symbiots? Was it the expansion of the Garrison fleet?
I'd say the Garrison currently has the best commander it had in ages, if you know what I mean.

Dearest Donald,

I certainly do not question your success in the Symbiot worlds.  You understand of course that I am bombarded with letters from lobbyists for the position every day, however, and not all of them share the positive outlook that you do.  In fairness to all Great Houses, I feel obliged to open the floor to discussion.

Respectfully,
Lady Santiago, &c.

Dearest Lady Regent,

My master, Duke Flavius is on a pilgrimage to Icon to visit the holy site where Cardano Li Halan was converted to the one true faith of the Celestial Sun.  Since, he no longer interests himself in Imperial Elections, he did instruct me to share this haiku with you to hopefully provide some guidance in your daunting decision in regards to Stigmata.

Wisdom is not learned.
It is given (and taken)
by the grace of the Pancreator.

Talent is a friend,
having been trained by wisdom
and kind genetics.

Skill is what wisdom,
talent and sheer willingness
create together.

Folks are divided
in those who can contribute
and abject failures.

Most Humbly,

Wei Lan - Li Halan Emissary to the Five Great Royal Houses

To the ever vivacious Regent and illustrious assembly of Noble Senators, Greetings

As representative of House Hawkwood I applaud the achievements of House al-Malik in fighting back the encroaching darkness that is the vile Symbiot hordes. In my lords tragically brief tenure as Fleet Commander, he witnessed firsthand through other people the terror and deadliness of the alien menace that waits just beyond the battlefields of Stigmata. I have not seen one corrupted pod ship pass the blockade, and this is all due to Ibn Donald's vigilance.

However, Emissary Wei Lan, your master has made a compelling case here. His service as the Minister of the Eye was both a turbulent but ultimately beneficial appointment that propelled the Empire past the tyranny of the League. Here you write:

"Skill is what wisdom,
talent and sheer willingness
create together."

Duke Flavius' achievement in securing the scepters from the fumbling hands of the Patriarch showcases his combination of wisdom, talent and most of all willingness turned into skill in handling those who menace the peace.

It is Lord Protector Alvarex's opinion, after weighing the merits of these two candidates and especially the accomplishments as Minister of the Eye, that he would support the offer of Emissary Wei Lan to appoint Duke Flavius to become Garrison Commander and High Admiral of Stigmata.

-Elector Faustus Hawkwood
