Theosophs+EoT+6

These stats take into account the 8 random growth with the no more then ++ per stat. I already sent you a copy but it was not updated IC.

MIL: ++ Mutual defense pact. ++ Protection against monsters. ++ Redirect the military budget and assign Shardplate equipped troops for support of the big econ project. This isn't burning Mil, this is using it for other things besides smiting.

ECON: ++++ Joint Project with Bulgaria. Incidentally, my part of the developments are a bit selfishly linked to my big project for this turn. My part of the network that deals with the big project should be ready to be isolated from the rest of it in an emergency.

++ Continue advancement of the floating platforms in cooperation with Loki's Brigade (Are they still doing that? Also, I believe I am still owed +- from the deal I think. Do you have the record?)

+++++ ++ Using the properties of Infusion, (especially the increase in strength coupled with a reduction in mass) it now possible to construct a cable with sufficient tensile strength to attach to Earth an orbital body.

As part of another of my "change things completely" projects, I want to use the automated mining and power technology as well as the floating platforms system to separate my nation.

The Mining system will be expanded to specifically deal with Imperium, with harmonic resonance system built in to prevent the system itself from being consumed and being constructed out of the gold/iron alloy.

Once that is done, the Imperium will be released to run free, with the mining system growing with it. Since both of these are natural processes, I shouldn't have to mind them.

In order to prevent a war, the system will stop the Imperium growth at the borders of my lands. Shardplate derived protection systems will cover the sub crustal portions of the network to prevent the Imperium from growing free in the Earth's mantel.

Massive elevators to low orbit will connect the key nodes in the network to my cities in orbit. The capital elevator will encompass the central lake and the three capitals, making it many miles in diameter. Lesser cities will have lesser elevators. These structures will be mostly hollow, and constructed primarily of infused silica crystal constructed in large sections by Theosophic crystal technology.

In low earth orbit (LEO) cities will be constructed of a similar silica material. With the obscene weight to strength ratios it is possible to produce structures of sufficient thickness to absorb cosmic rays, and a sufficiently thick clear crystal window can be tuned to screen UV. These cities will include large parks to avoid claustrophobia and cabin fever. They will also include low to zero g manufacturing which is excellent for crystals and metals. Due to the nature of living in space electricity (Or rather the Vril energy equivalent), plumbing, and urbanization will be ubiquitous.

Jobs will be primarily in the manufacturing sector and each city will be built around a manufacturing core. The elevators will bring air, water, materials, and Imperium up and take waste down. As I said, they are huge and have multiple redundancies. Also, the outer layers will be so heavily infused as to be nearly indestructible, and the elevators themselves will have a treeroot like foundation in the mining network.

I will have further expansions from there such as a trade system between the cities that does not rely on the mining system so as to add an extra layer of redundancy. Also, this should be great for Esp since I can literally point telescopes down and see their stuff.

Also, I think this should make me more or less immune to monsters forever. The ground will be a ruinous wasteland, mutants produced by the wasteland would be killed by the mining network if they tried to damage it due to its resonance tech, and the elevators are so massive and strong that it would take a major military operation to even damage them.

OOC: If it would be cheaper to develop more advanced gravity technology to produce grav lifts or simple cargo systems, please let me know.

Also, OBSCENE levels of care are being taken to prevent any kind of destopian situation from developing. Lady Catherin, who is a Social Science Spk, is developing the basic plans and social system to turn the residents of the space cities into super loyal, patriotic, and efficient workers. (Hey, who says mad science is all deathrays and zeplins?)

MOR: ++- Get people behind

SPK: ++ Floating platform project with Loki.

+++++ +++ See the largest Econ Project.

ESPD: ++++ Keep any news of the new project from getting out.

ESPO: - Continue routing out spies and internal corruption.

WO: ++ Continue the recruitment campaign for Spks and scholars. Oh, the urban poor could work also, since factory jobs are menial.

 * No its not strong enough for that yet.
 * It'd be easier to just make flying cities, and more in line with the setting
 * No need to worry about citizens, as long as morale is up they'll follow you no matter what. Only if morale low will they start complaining or rebelling.
 * They've had other things on their mind
 * Yes another +-
