Well... this should be interesting...
How do we go about this? Post us entering the chamber and start discussing who should be Governor? I imagine an awkward silence while nobody wants to talk first

Dekskull, do you consider that the little lore I made for the 1rst St Bonifatius' régiment to be "true" in our timeline? I might make references to it to some extent if so.

Definitely! I was planning on having some veterans return at some point in the future but for right now, that regiment is far far away and wouldn't really be impacting things at home.
@ Pyro: You all can start the council meeting whenever. I imagine it would be a more raccous scene though. Lot's of observers and crowds of people cheering for their favorite candidate and such.

Wow you all have practically written a Black Library novel here. Great stuff.
Once the council scene is concluded I'll plan on taking a break for about a week, and then we can re-launch with another in game time jump and a chance to see how the new governor handles his first major crisis.

Once complete at the council, did you still want us to do resource allocation, or is that phase of the campaign done?
Also: I will be out of pocket for a couple of days.

I think campaign wise, that made the most sense at the outset. You are kind of at this point where civilization is expanding exponentially and somewhat uncontrollably. You can articulate the general goals of development and then we'll see what happens

Just because we as players might come from different political systems: when Loisy talks about the position of Prime Minister, what range of tasks ans what powerdistribution with the Governor he has in mind? Are we talking like Germany style, where the Chancelor has basically all the power and the president is mostly ceremonial? A 50:50 thing? Or would Loisy only be the executive carrying out, what the Governor sets in motion?

I totally missed this fact.
In my mind it was more in the french meaning of the guy in charge of having the president's goal set in motion and oversee and organise the work of the rest of the government. A second in command of sorts.
But since I'm not sure it actually exists in 40k Standard issue governments, what his range of responsabilities would truly be could earn it's own debate or chapter in the council.

I have no Problem with just playing that all persons involved know what he meant. We rule together for 20-30 years now, our characters must have takes about this in the past.
I have to find the correct words for it, but what Gaussenberg prefers would be Loisy having control over military and enforcers + military industry, Richemont having economics, agriculture and trade and Gaussenberg doing his best to keep everything going in between. With the general course going in the direction of prussia around the year 1800, where the state was heavily organized around the military but still with a functioning bureaucracy and a more or less working economy.
Also fitting as I imagine Gaussenberg was born and raised in Mordian, maybe he even did some service with the iron guard, which seems quite inspired by Prussia in my opinion

It's up to you all how you want the political system to function. I remember in the Dan Abnet Book Double Eagle the Imperial planet they are fighting all was titled a "Republic" so anything is possible.
The Imperium just cares about it's tithes and not sliding into heresy. Other then that each world governs itself (essentially)

Forgive the collision course, but once again I think my character could not logically not follow this path, plus this story is really tons of fun and I'd have been ashamed not to spice it up even further.
Waiting for poor Von Gaussenberg to reel in terror as the two big boys are showing their muscles in front of him

Defintily an interesting development so far.
I have to think a bit about Gaussenbergs reaction to the escalation. Regardless of that I would be interested what the other dignitaries (The Techpriest, the bishop, possibly the other nobles) have to say, as Gaussenberg asked them. The three of us are the only three voting, but I guess it's not a bad idea to at least hear some other ideas.
On the current conflict: I guess Gaussenberg has half a mind to just let Richemont and Loisy battle it out, while trying to keep himself and the essential parts of the colony out of the way. I just have to get a grip on how he would do this.

Have to say, I have never really role-played folks at this level of power before. More individuals as opposed to heads of government and factions. Fun times.

And oddly enough, well suited for forum play.
Once the wheeling and dealing is wrapped up we'll time jump another 20 years and see what happens next. (Will hopefully have another adventure ready next week)

While we figure out who is governor, could you give us a headsup where we are currently at with ressource allocation? I think I kind of lost track a little bit.
My last allocation was: 1 Infrastructure/Security (Gene Scanners) 1 Comms (networking in the Imperial Bureaucracy), 1 Religion (second half of the money I promised the Ecclesiarchy) which to my knowledge was "turn 3".
Is this what happens AFTER the election for who becomes governor? Or before and we can do something again?

Yes I would say that the resource allocation happens after the election of governor. And if you want to change anything, you can do so before the next time jump.
Like I was saying before, the resource allocation part was critically important when you started, but as the world has gotten larger it is becoming less important.
There will be different challenges laying ahead. Remember...it's a big galaxy.

Well that was an unexpected turn of events.
And the best part of it is, all self powered by you all. I can just sit back and chill for this part.
I guess we'll have to see what the Colonel's reaction is to the latest turn around.
BTW: The Arbites will come to your world whether they are invited or not...IF they think your world is worth protecting. They may come overtly, or covertly. And they will enforce the law however they wish. (Kind of like Inquisition light).
So it might be good rhetoric to ask the Arbites to enforce the law, but as far as a solid plan, it's on the flimsy side. (Kind of like "planning" to have a Chapter of Space Marines save you if you get attacked).

I was assuming Loisy's reasoning behind this is that he could convince them, as I'm still distilling the obsession of treason into his actions!

Very interesting turn of events.
With that single event, I envision the future is going to unfold very differently than I had originally thought with Gaussenberg as Governor.
You all can do a few more posts to iron out a few more details, but I think we're almost ready for our next time jump.

It may get useful because as I envision it, I'd be Loisy actually trying to draw the lines of who does what within the government. But if that gets too tiresome, it could be just in the hand of the GM. Also depends whether you feel like writing these scenes!

The next phase looks interesting.
We get to explore the consequences of Loisy sort of getting his wish. More attention from the Imperium...and all the unintended consequences that come with it.
