"ITS BETTER TO DIE FOR THE EMPEROR, THAN TO LIFE FOR YOURSELF!"

All... My... Yes.

@Legion02

Well. My guys are rather pro-Imperium for now. So of course, their knowledgable Grandmaster would want to make his Order look good.

Here is a propaganda vid for the EoM. Expect the Order to do the same on the ground.

@NecroKnight kek

The militia will suffer for their incompetence.

I also expect the Hercules to begin fire mission alongisde the bombers.

WHICH STRANGELY DIDN'T DEFRND THE EOM DEFENSIVE PERIMITER. Their heads shall be removed from their shoulders presently.

@6slyboy6

Orbital bombardment is most welcome against those xeno heretics - who caused this. Collapse the tunnels beneath them.

As for incompetence - imagine it like this. Your army and police force, just got overrun by man-eating bugs and about 60% of your city was just overrun. Citadel-One is like...hmm the downtown district. Most richest sector yet also the original site of the colonization - which is why it has only one entrance to it. (It's surrounded by very sturdy metal walls - that go under the city aswell, to prevent any burrowing Vespen to get through - nasty critters during the initial arrival)

As for the Order - imagine that they are like a ceremonial guard. Most people see them only hang-around their 'Temple' and occasionally keep the hungry Vespen away from the mines. =P

Now imagine the Administrator having to write to the EoM bureaucracy - that the planet, lost its police force, its army forces were overrun and xeno' heretics managed to disable the Repulsor Fields - and the only reason the planet didn't fall was because the ceremonial guard held the man-eating beasts at bay.

(Although, none will likely know - that the Order has daily training regimes, are shuffled around the mines to have them gain experience, go on occasional hunting trips into Vespen-filled jungles and engage in full-contact dueling with live weapons)

(In reality, the Order IS the most qualified to fight the Vespen. The EoM has likely forgotten in three centuries - since they haven't seen the Order to anything that looks militaristic and forgot the ranged weapons aren't much used against armored beasts)

@NecroKnight The EOM Milotia that was deployed had advanced weapons and air support. That means bombing the shit out of the Vespen before they can even reach the blockade.

But no sweat broken, I dont really mind. I have a few billion more Militia to go around.

Im thinking of joining as cybernetic semi-insectoid organisms who are confused by censuses because they are not sure whether to count biotechnic tools within the population and they have living buildings and are not sure if they are to be included in census. in order to meet the human population quota they create organ farms that they claim are humans.

@Lucidnonsense Confused cybernetic insects who are rather unsure if they should count their living buildings seem okay. However, there is no real "human population quota". It's more like the overabbundance of humans settled on your planet. The 20% minimum human population rule is a GM-rule only. Not an Imperial quota.

I generally like the idea of a xeno-race with living buildings and such but one thing is a big no-no. Organ farms. Swift way to get the human Imperial Navy to knock on your door with several mega-newton worth of force. Known that the humans on your planet basically own you. Either they installed a shadow goverment or they rule directly (I think shadow goverment is the prefered way simply because they need to manipulate a few 100 and not an entire population). You can do it in secret (harvesting their humans, that is), but know that if the Imperium catches a whiff of this, you'll be in trouble.

@Lucidnonsense This seems weird.

I do still like the idea of an argument between several people if the roaming office buildings should be considered for the population.

Yeah it sounds funny.

Come on guys, where's your war face? Lemme see your warface!

I can't show it yet, I'm working on a colab with Wernher, so I may not be able to post in a while until we finish that up.

@6slyboy6@Legion02

I am awaiting my reply. Don't tease me. Reply plz =3.

I'm starting up a collab with Rainbow.

@6slyboy6 Double post because mentions don't work in edits.

So, I'm assuming that the Emperor himself is a powerful psintegrat/psion/psyker/whatever-you-want-to-call-it. What I'm not sure of is the presence or use of psintegrae in the Emporium in general. Do they have a lot of them? Do they use them as soldiers, spies, secret police?

@Ozerath You'll see it in time. I really don't want to spoil the fun unless you really need it for a post or something.

But no, the Militia has no psykers among them.

@6slyboy6@Legion02

Y'llo?

@NecroKnight Easy now, easy. The Empire is an efficient machine that answers the many posts at the same time...
