So my next post is just gonna be enlarging my armed forces?

**admiral9**

A little question About how many people would be aboard a mechanicus cruiser?

I guess maybe 1000 or something?

**Castiel**

Right, are we all sorted and ready to go?

**admiral9**

I think so.

**Castiel**

Ok, Magnus, its over to you!

**admiral9**

Is joker still online or is he offline again?

**Lord Magnus**

Done. Admiral, you probably have around 650 Servitors, 200 Skiitari, and then just like 75 or so Tech Priests, and a few higher up Mechanicus members.

**admiral9**

So its BlabBlabBlab's turn now. Right?

**Deadshot**

His name is Blap, the Train Man!

**p_gray99**

I thought it was my turn!
Also, sorry if I sound stupid but what's a Skiitari?
Finally, I think there's a bit too much tension between the chaos gods: they worked together in the horus heresy, should I start trying to bring them together, or should I just leave it?

**admiral9**

Yeah i was thinking about that because if i have an estimate of like 1000 actual personnel. That means around 600-700 menials. 100 Skitarii and another 100 skirarii reserve.

Only thing is i would guess that there also is a small legio cybernetica detachment. With like 20-30 robots. And of those 1000 humans 400 would be techpriests and 75 is a good estimate because they also need to be completely loyal to me. uum of the normal humans i think around 200 cultists because they are easier to control but maybe im guessing to high with the normal humans.

About the high ranking members. I have the head electro-priest a high ranking genetor and 2 magos explorator's.

And that is considered not huge because i need to control the whole ship thank god for ''conversion''.

You don't sound stupid. A skitarii is a servitor that is fitted for battle. He is equipped with an improved version of a guards weaponary along with targetting array's and such also he is beter in cqc and can be fitted with chain saws and stuff. Its the main military and bodyguard force of the mechanicum along with knights and titans.

Oh and now that you are online i think it is.

You actually no longer need to actively control any of them now because they are just following you by reprogramming of their minds.

**Castiel**

P gray is up!

**admiral9**

No i mean convert them to chaos a techpriest is indoctrated a normal human can easily be swayed over to chaos.

yep, writing now.
Do you think it's too drastic to call all the daemons into discussion over whether they can join sides?

**admiral9**

Uum you mean in your dreams because castiel did it too only he refused all of them.

**p_gray99**

admiral9 wrote:Uum you mean in your dreams because castiel did it too only he refused all of them.

fine. It was just an idea. Anyway, I thought that he was refusing for any of them to possess him, rather than the individual powers refusing to join sides.
Anyway, I've got a good enough post without that, so I don't mind.

**admiral9**

Oh you meant like that uum yeah that is a huge development i though you meant your own possession.

**Castiel**

Maybe do that next time round so that everyone konws what is going to happen.

**p_gray99**

cool. This post will be a good buildup to that then.

**admiral9**

That is gonna be awesome but my fire lord is as neutral as ever. As he has ultimate loyalty to the forge of souls he isn't allowed to take sides when the gods war against each other.
But convincing him to work with your daemons is gonna be cool though.

**admiral9**

So deadshot is up because BlabBlabBlab is offline acording to the site.

**Deadshot**

Am busy. Can't post for a few hours.

**Lord Magnus**

Blap is online, he is up.

**admiral9**

Okay then its blab and then I'm gonna do my army post.

**BlapBlapBlap**

Hey! I'm back!

**admiral9**

Well good now you can make your post.

**BlapBlapBlap**

Done!

**Castiel**

Has returned.
