Just feeiling like we don't have enough defence in Hotel, and they get to a system several days before us so not sending anything now means we don't have extra there even next turn.

Progress on Foxtrot
The notes continue to progress steadily, securing strategic locations across the planet and gaining you 4 dominion.


Progress on Hotel
The notes continue to progress steadily, securing strategic locations across the planet and gaining you 4 dominion.

Landing On Juliett
The Gaians, true to their word, have evacuated the Juliett system- leaving a silent journey for the Matriarch to deposit her strange children across Juliett's fertile surface.

Initial survey data is highly favorable, and the notes communicate a lush world of organic life for them to thrive upon.  However, the Notes also communicate that the Gaians have not entirely left the planet. There is a small group of them that remain, though they take pains to stay out of the Note's way and seem to be keeping to a strictly observational capacity. Any time they are approached they pack up their equipment, collapse whatever bases they have, and move backward.

While the limited number of Notes currently fielded probably won't be forced to encroach on their territory for some time, it doesn't seem like they want to fight or put up any sort of resistance. They are, however, uncannily good at knowing when the notes are approaching, and there's thus precious little information gained on them other than the fact that they have roughly equivalent numbers.

I'd like to start a burrower mite project, precognition project or an organics production project. It was noted that we can tweak the pp multipliers for different resources so we might want to do that. Or we could make straight pp production infrastructure.

I would want to find a use for our huge stacks of Non organics, my thought is to go with something which isn't directly related to combat so in time of need we still need to worry about one resource, my prefernce is some sort of infrastrature project to increase pp or organic.

In any case it would be a battle of critical thinking and I refuse to fight an unarmed individual.

Var’gra was rather irritated.
If one was lacking in the ability to detect psionic phenomena, they might notice his whisker-like tendrils moving at a rather agitated pace, or even the currents of water that circle his body.

If one did in fact posses such an ability, they would be easily able to pick up on the roiling mass of annoyance and outrage that was currently spewing forth from the captain even as telekinetic power  created a maelstrom of currents around his body that would by enough to sheer through most ramshackle armor that the liir aboard his vessel were clad in.

Var’Gra was a rather old Liir, having survived aboard various pirate and raider vessels ever since the Liir had decided to dedicate their time to restoring the biosphere of Vaal’Lara.

Such a dicition hadn’t sat well with the former adjutant/stress toy of a high-ranking suul’kan admiral. He had been Invaluable to the Liirs attempts to evacuate some of their number, and had taken advantage of the [Horror] to steal the admirals old battleship in order to aid the evacuation.

As such, when his people had decided to dedicate all their energy towards fixing the dead world, Var’Gra had search for other like-minded liir, who had also been rather… disgruntled by the weakness such a thing would bring to his people.
As such, during a rather simple patrol mission, Var’Gra took his crew of malcontents and his twice stolen battleship away from the home of the Liir.

Over the years he had spent plenty of time fighting, and his first ship had barely lasted more then a year before a lack of suffienct maintenance finally caught up with it.

For over a thousand years, Val’Gra had prowled the stars. He had fought other pirates, splinter colonies that had managed to field a corvette system patrol and even had thrown down with a rampant Nano swarm once.

As a Liir, he had only grown larger and more psionicaly powerful over the years.
As it was, Var’Gra was the undisputed terror of the stars, the strongest pirate lord of the era.
At least he was.

His spies would be doing a poor job if he hadn’t have heard of the other two “Nations” that the Liir of his old home had contacted.
He had known about these threats even before then. Pirates, outlaws and malcontents always have a habit to outpace FTL communications when it came to space travel.

As it was, the criminal space of the galaxy was shifting.
More AI had shown up in the past few years the all of his other 1012 years combined. Always a threat to those without a nation at their back, rouge AI would serve as a formidable threat by themselves, even with their drones and Hoomen helpers.
Add unto the annoying pests represented by the rouge sapient of the hivers and its certainly was a tremulous time to be a pirate lord.

And so the Pirate Lord Val’Gra was rather annoyed with the new threats that had made themselves known to his iron fisted rule over the seedy underworld rule.
But if the Iron swarm of Tarking-7 had failed to kill him, then The old pirate lord was damn well sure that these new comers wouldn’t have any more luck.

Ygg'Dra'Saal Devourer module
[Time: 3 Progress: 4 Cost: 5]
With the architecture already primarily in place, the costs of the weaving are kept considerably lower than would otherwise be possible. Safety concerns over the release of dangerous elements into the bio-sphere, so close to the homes of many Liir, is the primary braking force on the project's progress. A necessity, and a price gladly respecting by the Liiran scientists.

Ygg'Dra'Saal Devourer module: 0/12 [3] | 125T + 125O + 50M + 0E + 0S | Rushed 0 Times | Nothing invested

Prototype
[Efficacy: 5]
The completed Devourer upgrades are a striking upgrade from the existing biological processing facilities, adding a pulsing nuclear heart to the great sunken trees. While the initial price to start the beat is high, the Devourer module allows the Ygg'Dra'Saal to not merely grow biological matter, but to transmute base chemicals into organic slurry which can then be repurposed almost anywhere.

Ygg'Dra'Saal (Devourer): | 250T 150O 25M 50E 0S * Planet Size per rank. 5 Ranks | A grand tree-like structure that typically rests far beneath the waves, its roots pumping nutrients and base matter into its core, where a nuclear heart provides the energy to recombine the base materials into a rich organic slurry that acts as a suitable base for further operations. Increases Organic accessibility of a planet by 7.5% per rank. If upgrading from basic Ygg'Dra'Saal, then only the difference cost must be paid.

Telepathic data banks
The telepathic nexus is the centerpiece of our fleet, enabling our deployment of drone ships without the reliance on the animal-esque minds that have been given to them for times of peace.
Right now, the nexus is capable of Providing orders to both manned and drone craft, However, the limited tools that it provides to the fleet admiral and his aid within the Nexus choir limit its abilities to command.
AS such this project has been proposed to fix this issue via adding a series of small computers and telepathic brains to the structure. These computers and brains work together in order to aid the fleet admiral, giving them tools to improve their ability to command as well as serving as data storage for the admiral to shunt excessive feedback into.

The computers are programmed with many of the required tools that the admiral will need in order to effectively command his fleet, and through the use of telepathic organs and a translator are capable of both inputting and receiving information from the psionic song that the nexus creates. The purpose of this is in order to increase the number of ships that the Admiral and his choir will be able to effectively manage through the Telepathic nexus.

The primary goal of the project is to increase the amount of CNC we are able to produce from a singular telepathic nexus, without increasing the power drain or the device size more then (2) capacity at maximum.

I support but I think a fleet of 3 cruisers is probably an underestimating of the power of fighters.
