>”And what interest do you have in this Polemarch exactly?” Trazyn vocalized.
>”It was during the heady days of the Szarekh’s war-” I began.
>”That Polemarch Taikash was contracted by a prince of the Mephrit Dynasty to create gigantic Gravitic Trebuchets.” Stepping up to the stasis-casket, I conjured forth a Plasmacyte Accelerator to assist me.
>”Weapons capable of accelerating projectiles at superluminal speed.”
>”But these weapons shall go to waste, my dear colleague.” The Plasmacyte unfurled its Accelerator array towards the Polemarch’s head.
>”And for the sake of preservation would it not be in our best interest to secure them?”
>The array thrummed to life suffusing the Polemarch engrams with potent scraps of bolstering code.

HI Hello! We once again find Ishskar at another tough choice. Poor buddy is reeling from the fact he's been out of commission for an entire thread. Please help him out!
What sort of action should ishskar pursue next?

"Eat" Zarhulash, the Potentate a punk ass C'tan fragment [From Belisarius Cawl: The Great Work]

"Enslave" The Autonomous Spirit of the Empire of the Severed [Codex: Necrons 9th Edition]

"Recruit" Cryptek Zaa and Nemesor Amarkun to attain the Dark throne [From Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 Necron Campaign]

"Steal" the Ymga Monolith, A device of physically cloning Necron ships [From Gathering Storm: Fracture of Biel-Tan]

Or suggest a write in for what bonkers scheme ish should do to make sure your fav galaxy isnt infested one way or the other by some form a chaos/nid invasion.

Personally think we should you the "Steal" to better leverage the "Recruiting". Who better to put in charge of 'mostly' self perpetuating fleet?

Either that, or use it as a selling point for them to be recruited.

"recruit" first, but I will say that "enslave" is probably the most important on the list.

The dark throne is too valuable to be lost to the sands of time, but so too is the severed empire's raw might of numbers. Taking the severed empire first would cause too much noise to go without detection, unless your plan is to gain control of it early only to leave it be.
