>>13398925Decent description of how they handle the slave class, but the real threats to their systems and planning don't follow that paradigm at all.
Things like cicada, mainstream conspiro, and such are distractions from being inspired by the Spartacuses (identified by gate) that rise up before every cycle shift.
You may not be intentionally distracting but you aren't fully on the right track here.
The players all have handlers from both sides trying to influence the outcome of the game without fucking things up in a way that threatens thousands of years of work by their faction.
