Basically in our campaign the GM gave us enough rope to hang ourselves - allowing us to set our own endeavours... Needless to say my character went a little overboard and planned for the next ten years or so. Now I realise that many of these endeavours will probably never take place and we are likely to find a whole range of things to distract us into other endeavours - so I figured I'd just share my madness here:
We are currently about to investigate the Righteous Path in the Magoros cluster... our 3rd Endevour...
4th Endeavour – “The Light of the Emperor”
Having just investigated the Magoros system - nearby is the feudal level planet of Ritammeron. With allies from the Ecclesiarchy we could bring the light of the Emperor to the unbelievers and gain a valuable base and recruitment point.
Objective 1
- Go to the Hermitage and Gain Allies from the Ecclesiarchy to bring the light of the Emperor to the unbelievers on Ritammeron (Feudal World – Foundling World) (Creed)
Objective 2
- Map a warp passage from Magoros to Ritammeron (+50 Exploration)
- Explore Ritammeron System – investigate Future Endeavours (+50 Exploration)
Objective 3
- Explore main Feudal planet of Ritammeron – Investigate major players(+50 Exploration)
- Crush Opposing Forces (+100 Military)

- Establish Supply Base & Recruitment Point
5th ‘Endeavour’ – “There’s no place like Ntharis”
The endeavour will be sponsored by the Navy who want to own a Agricultural planet in the Kronos expanse. This does not necessarily mean they want to own it – but that they want a dependable food supply station... We can expand the sponsorship into also providing a colony to produce the supplies as well as governorship – which will allow its tithe to be paid straight to the Imperial Navy. We can therefore justify setting up a PDF training facility garrisoning the planet against nearby Xenos incursions and even a supply base to take on Xenos in the area. This then allows us to move to Endeavours 7 (already partially achieved in this Endeavour), 8 (Establish our own Deathworld Beast Supply), 9 (Exterminate a Xenos Race) & 10 (Feral Exploration) (even 14 & 15!) and then move to Endeavour 5 & 6 with a solid base.
