Council Chambers, Mkobe - July, 38 NS (estimated 3226 AD)
Progress Report
[9, <45%] Construction and Engineering
- 200 m -
( 36 = 9+27 >>> ) - FeDoRA (with Team Scyer), 15%
Redesign of the business cards and repainting their corporate headquarters to a different shade of beige takes up much of the agency's focus until Team Scryer arrive on scene and begin to whip things into shape. After that solid progress is made on understanding the scope of work required and the details required for implementation.
You will need a minimum of a further 800m invested into FeDoRA, but will receive a +12 if this is invested in a single budget line next turn, or +3 otherwise until complete
- 350 m -
( 12 =-60+27+45) - Space Tactical School (based on Historic Datavaults), 10%
Endless debate and argument into the subject matter derail the site selection and initial construction, with funds being wasted on several abortive attempts
- 300 m -
(100 = 73+27) - Repair
FSS Valencia and Scavenge Site E3 & E4
Your newly commissioned submarine performs preliminary surveys of both sites. At E3 the
FSS Valencia is able to make several passes of the
UTF Järkkymätön, what appears to be a escort class hull. It is broken into several pieces along the edge of the shelf, but those sections of it remain relatively intact. Several smaller hull sections are recovered and delivered to the Fisabee Incubator. At E4, perched on some kind of shelf several hundred metres into a deep trench, the
RCV Verhuis is largely intact. At first it is difficult to make out what kind of vessel the boxy cube might be, but the datavaults aboard the
RCV Mbal Msafiri confirm it is a mobile dock of some form. You could easily return to E3, but salvage at (or of) E4 will be complicated given the depths.
You should treat analysis of the materials and salvage of either site as separate budget lines in the next budget cycle, with a one-off +8 to one Exodus engineering project from the salvaged parts
- 400 m -
( 71 = 44+27) - Bureau of Astronautical Design and Innovation (BADI), 40%
Establishing the Bureau in Port Cartegena is initially seen as a bad decision, especially with the awkward travel required to Sietcee, but solid progress is made from the wealth of naval engineering expertise and the nearby university
- 350 m -
(112 = 25+27+60) - Convert the old Astronaut Training Wing to a Starflight School (based on Engineering Datavaults), 100%
Building on the existing excellent facilities and infrastructure at Sietcee, the newly commissioned Starflight School is equipped with the best new ATLAS-enabled terminals and refurbished Exodus datavaults.
Each turn any one project related to starflight or navigation receives a +10, for an ongoing maintenance cost of 20 million
- 90 m -
(101 = 39+27+30+5) - Reverse Engineer Exodus Fusion Powersystems (based on Engineering Datavaults), 20%
Strong initial progress is made.
- 25 m -
(131 = 74+27+30) - Feasibility: Exodus Sensor Systems (based on Engineering Datavaults under the aegis of SMARTIE)
Preliminary study of the RCV Mbal Msafiri's systems isolate a handful of sensor technologies that would bear further investigation: Improved RADAR, LIDAR, Phased Antennas, Temporal-Corrective Sensors and Sensor Fusion Algorithms. At the Acero Cathedral facility one bright wag points out some of these techniques would show considerable improvement with Ansible enhancements.
Research Available
- 25 m -
( 47 =-10+27+30) - Feasibility: Exodus Hydroponics (based on Engineering Datavaults)
Conflicting theories from the existing kelp aquaculture techniques make it impossible for the team to come up with a costing for this research, or a clear elucidation of the benefits.
Research Available, but cost unknown
- 25 m -
(120 = 93+27) -Feasibility: Federation Transport Network
Given a wealth of options - from the existing roads and sea trade routes to the new roadtrains and the potential of Gravionics - this is clearly an area of rich study.
Research Available
- 450 m -
(185 = 158+27) - Construction of a Recycling Plant, 100%
Building a new facility in Mkobe integrated within the transport system is a stroke of genius and the engineers are able to improve the basic blueprint as well as generate significant positive publicity.
Economy++, Morale++
= 2225m, 31%
[8, <40%] Research and Development
- 280 m -
(147 = 64+24+60) - Gravionics (based on Engineering Datavaults), 100%
Completing this research sparks a slew of articles about flying cars and rocketpacks, but the implications will be far more subtle and take longer to embed themselves in Federation culture. You have some control over both the magnitude and direction that gravity may be applied in, though it is limited to vehicles or equipment the size of a small car inside a planetary gravity well. Outside it will likely prove far more interesting. It does however, with the Blitzkrieg research, unlock the final Fisabee unit.
You will need to research specific applications or blueprints, but there will be clear benefits to the Shock and Striker divisions together with any research into Powered Armour
- 100*m -
(106 = 77+24+5) - Further study: Comorian Crystals: Psychoactive Properties (at Twin Shards), 70%
Approaching the completion of their research, the team have begun to isolate which factors - in the subject or dust - trigger what kind of response from the subjects. They implore the Council to fully fund the final stage of research required
- 120 m -
( 85 = 61+24) - Satellite-Coordinated Anti-Aircraft Platform (under the aegis of SMARTIE), 100%
General Kumbe of the Nezem presents the test data from the new platform to the Council, struggling not to come across as a man with a very effective new toy. He is especially delighted that the Acero Cathedral team managed to build in several enhancements to the Eleventh Hour System at the same time.
You have a platform to provide this cover and may choose to raise the requisite Scraager Mobile Defence Guns, five divisions of which would provide cover over the existing Federation territory (or three focused on the Seihai border or twelve planetwide)
- 160*m -
(UM100 = 110+24+3+30) - Solar Efficiency (in conjunction with Rafiki Brotherhood), 100%
Working together in excellent harmony for the first time, the joint Federation-Rafiki team power through the remaining theorectical and engineering problems. Off the back of several months of such intense work, they produce improvements in manufacturing cost and operational efficiency to existing Solar Plant blueprints together with a miniturised version that would be especially suitable for high-altitude, low-orbital or deep space craft. Off the back of these improvements the Rafiki embark upon a significant expansion programme of their green energy capability.
You may redeploy Team Helios on other Clean Tech research, engineering or economic projects so long as they align with Rafiki interests. They provide a +12 bonus
- 150*m -
(123 = 29+24+5+5+60) - Self-Sustaining Closed Ecosystems (in conjunction with Hishu Gardeners and based on Engineering Datavaults, helmed by Kate Johnson), 60%
Breakthroughs continue apace, with studies of several existing Federation settlements within the badlands and deserts close to Buna being critical to applying Comorian-specific solutions to the problem
- 270 m -
( 67 = 43+24) - Improved Educational Systems, 100%
Consisting of a strong behavioural psychology bent and a reliance on novel technologies, the proposals from the research think-tank on education are quite radical - encouraging a combination of home-schooling and traditional campuses, flipping the focus of lessons to problem exploration and increasing the prominence of homework for exercises and tests.
It will take some time for these methods to be adopted into the mainstream, however the Council may accelerate that with construction of LaPlante Hackschools - blueprints for which are available - or through retooling the Atlas Kiosk manufactory (or both). Morale-
- 55 m -
( 58 = 29+24+5) - Blitzkrieg, 100%
With the clear marriage of Rim Confererature manuals and those techniques employed by Djerboa and Habub divisions, the field officers of Fort Mkobe unlock these tactics and strategies.
You may choose to apply this when utilising combined arms ground forces. Further study will be required to apply this to other spheres of operation.
- 200 m -
( 43 = 14+24+5) - Smart Ballistics, 10%
Progress continues at a snail's pace
- 200 m -
( 89 = 65+24) - (Corrected) Cryptography, 100%
Your errors are clear and advances in other related technology makes this relatively simple to complete. Your cryptanalysts scoff at whether these will be any better than your existing cryptofloriconology or steganography techniques however.
- 25 m -
(111 = 27+24+60) - Feasibility: Basic of Exodus Engineering Techniques (based on Engineering Datavaults)
You clearly indentify a set of techniques that will provide bonuses to subsequent Exodus reserve engineering projects.
Research Available
- 275 m -
(100 = 76+24) - Remote Augmented Missions, 100%
You may now conduct surveying and scouting missions with basic remotes, with a far finer-grained interaction than your existing probes if within a sufficient lag range or the unit is equipped with Ansibles. Your ability for these remotes to sense and act is clearly limited by your knowledge of sensor techniques and robotics, however. Your science team begs to be able to use these techniques for further exploration of the RCV Mbal Msafiri and the other crash sites, with the understanding that such remotes will be throwaway prototypes.
Any remote-enabled mission receives a +8 and reduces or eliminates the risk of personal loss, but such missions must be funded to a minimum of 200m and you cannot use more than two remotes per budget cycle. Both restrictions will lift once you have sufficient expertise or some kind of specialised manufactory
- 100 m -
(-79 =-90+24) - Review Logs Sent to Seihai (under the aegis of SMARTIE), 0%
Despite diligence and a multi-layered review process, operator error manages to replay a significant swathe of recent data and resend it to the Seihai coordinates. Only the comparatively narrow window overflying their territory prevents it being much much worse.
Morale------
- 300 m -
( 84 = 60+24) - Feasibility (and Study): Efficient Allocation and Application of Compulsory Federal Service, 100%
Experts from many fields come together in a five-day plenarium to debate and discuss the topic, with the gamble of full media coverage throughout. Beginning with a resounding keynote and several poignant calls to service throughout, there is a clear response from the people - who demand the Council put this at the forefront of their agenda next session.
You may treat the enactment of Compulsory Federal Service as a special budget item (or set of up to four budget lines) outside of normal category limits, with a +25 bonus and a 100% matched budget from seized Satyata assets. It requires a clear plan from the Council however, which will be tracked as a Motion. Unity+++
- 100 m -
(209 =177+24+3+5) - Feasibility (and Study): Armour Augmentation (including Powered Armour and Material Variants), 10%*
Pulling together the team for the study, Council science advisors stumble over Private Mac Gyver - who has worked on Nezem State equipment for close to forty years. He quickly rises to command the study and, whilst a little loose in his military doctrine, his results speak for themselves.
You have progressed on three studies, which you may combine if you choose, and Private Gyver may continue to work on all three providing his +8 bonus
- 25 m -
( 71 = 17+24+30) - Feasibility: Insystem Ion Drives (based on Engineering Datavaults)
Debate rages within the study team regarding the implications of some of the vault material, but that should not prevent research commencing.
Research Available
- 25 m -
( 99 = 75+24) - Feasibility: Combat Simulators, 0%
Clear interest from the military in increasing the efficacy of training makes this a relatively cheap piece of research, though limited by existing simulation technologies.
Research Available
- 25 m -
( 95 = 71+24) - Feasibility: Em Drives, 0%
Championed by one of the less-reputable scientists at the University of Buna, there is enough data here to substaniate a fully-fledged project. It will clearly be expensive, but the potential benefits are huge .
Research Available
- 25 m -
(105 = 21+24+60) - Feasibility: Exodus Computers (based on Engineering Datavaults), 0%
Despite a degree of divergence between Federation and Exodus computing technology, especially in networking technology, there are still several areas that would see a clear benefit from this technology and it is an area the Federation has begun to excel in.
Research Available, with a +3 to the first turn
= 2310 m, 33%
[6, <40%] Economy and Trade
- 9 m -
( 93 = 75+18) - Deposit into Sovereign Wealth Fund
You make the deposit and see some small gains, though these are wiped out by overall poor performance in the secondary markets. Your advisors strongly recommend investigating this economic theory in earnest, rather than playing with Federation funds with these half-hearted investments. Basic simulations performed at the Dhajafala Institute suggest that the Federation would likely receive extra income from a Sovereign Wealth Fund whose balance it remained over 15% of the Council budget.

- 100 m -
( 40 = 17+18+5) - Negotiated Technology Purchase Charter with Polities (at Dhajafada Institute)
Several conferences later there is no agreement on increasing the bureaucratic burden on either Polities or the Federation. Experts at the Institute suggest this is a matter better suited to Council-level negotiations.
Unity--
- 100 m -
( 78 = 60+18) - Establish Veterans After-Service Programme
With most existing veterans coming from law enforcement, the Cartel Wars, or with experience only in handling bandits at the edges of Federation territory, this initiative is well-received but the structure and purpose of the programme remains unclear.
You receive a +5 next turn if you build on this

( 80 = 68+ 9+3) - Propose to Rafiki Counterintelligence and Security Amendments to Roadtrains (led by Martha Dunn)
With the clear benefits of working with the Federation in their research programme, the Rafiki agree to supply units of their Peacekeepers on any roadtrain whose route passes through their territory. They further offer to train Federation an infantry division in their technqiues at each of their Ksar el-Kebir or Ksar es-Seghir each Council session.
You can now refit Polity Infantry Divisions to Peacekeepers, who have the same stats but provide a +15 to civil missions (or +5 over a wider area if Decentralised)

[Eyes Only!] Forensic Investigation into Prior Cryptographic Research
Nothing further is uncovered, nor is it likely to be with key records removed. Your investigative team is somewhat blase in their report, "It is clearly the Satyata"

( 79 = 55+24) -
[Eyes Only!] Investigate: Suspiciously Effective Military Recruitment
Your team tread carefully in what could be otherwise a powderkeg, though this hampers their effectiveness somewhat. At the end of several months of performance reviews, interviews and undercover placements they are comfortable that it is most likely related to the undercurrent of Unity and a reaction to Motion 13

( 72 = 51+24+8) -
[Eyes Only!] Investigate: Continued Probes into Satyata (led by Tänzer)
Delving into the seized corporate assets and records of the Seihai sympathisers, Tänzer manages to add to their profile of the Satyata. They uncover a tantalising passage concerning the Seihai founder and their relationship with the Satyata, which suggests that the
RCV Mrefu Kiweo made planetfall in Seihai territory and contains the original Satyata Council in cryostasis, mostly.

Total Expenditure:
= 7081 million credits, 100%
Policies:- (00) Private Militaries - Public reaction to the rise of militias and, in particular, their prominence on the Council, raises concerns on the path the Federation is taking and whether the concerns over the Seihai - who have remained steadfastly isolationist - are being over-egged by the Council. Next turn one line item will receive support and interest from political Hawks and two similarly from Doves, which will influence their outcome. Council may choose which items or let them be selected randomly
- (77) Retribution - Attempts at retribution towards the Council and it's member polities by the Satyata proves ineffectual, with several terrorist events - economic and paramilitary - foiled by the efforts of the CIA and FIA. You receive a +6 bonus to one counter-intelligence operation next turn

Events:

- (12) Within the banking sector however there are rumblings and rumours of a build-up of systemic risk caused by complex bundling of debt and credit instruments together with the influence wielded by Satyata supporters. Given the opaque nature of these instruments it is difficult for the Council to predict where the risk may lie
- (16) Following his resignation from the Council, Takala Dahajafada is subject of a new expose that reveals the secret work that the Progress Made Manifest Coalition had conducted to siphon off Federation resources for the construction of of an hardened Ansible-controlled lunar tunneller.
