Upon arrival TalOS saw that each and every one of the Forge Worlds present were also the ones participating with the Siege. Checking identification markers the Primarch determined that these were the highest of their respective forces and had likely placed the battle in the hands of their lower ranking Magi and Domini.
Already the Primarch knew each of their names thanks to his built up data base. He had the names of each and every Tech Priest attending this operation stored within his systems so that he would always know it. Skitarii were easy enough reading off their identification and TalOS had his son’s names by heart.
+Magos Dominus Tempest, High Dominus Lokire.+ TalOS called out the two who seemed to be leading the sides with a hint of wonder, +What is it that is being debated?+
The two of them went silent for a moment as they generated their words, TalOS taking a moment to look around and found the Lucian Dux Dominus standing nearby. TalOS sent a ping to the man to give him his story, which resulted in TalOS giving a solemn understanding nod.
In addition to this operation being a mix of about everyone, it had minimal Mars and Lucian personnel among it. One would think such a thing stupid, but TalOS wanted to make sure no one was butting heads against one another during the training. When battle happens in earnest TalOS or his right hands will be commanding this force, meaning there would be little chance for power politics to happen. As for the Dux Dominus, TalOS placed a humble man in charge who made sure everyone knew the meaning for this event. As an event like this happened, he handled it perfectly in TalOS’s opinion.
+Sanctus Dominus.+ Declared the Priest from Columnus, +I apologize that we are speaking of this now but I wanted to make my Forge World’s stance clear. The integration of personally untested technology will not be permitted until I have confirmation from Columnus.+
+My Lord.+ Bowed the High Dominus from Xana, +I find such things trivial and against operational integrity. We are operating at suboptimal ability between both ourselves and our troops. Warfare is won through communication and we must employ it.+
So keeping in line with principles against practicality. Authorization for new Technologies will not arrive during the War, TalOS knew, so there was no chance of asking each and every Forge World their individual opinion. Ultimately TalOS was in charge in lieu of their authority and what he says goes. Doing either choice might anger the other side of such a worthy debate.
>Each Forge World does what they choose. No need to force them against their wills.
>Efficiency matters! Force them.
>In the future, best if we do not make such a liberal blend of forces.
