Activities

Station IX

Formerly the University Cricket Field

At Station IX (Provisional), you can take actions to increase the Disposition of the Air Fleet. Some options cost resources, one costs a favour, and some just cost actions, but they all reward Service to London. They also all increase your Contributions to the Fleet, which allows you to Take on a Command at 10, unlocking Reconnaissance Flights.

Station IX

Option	Cost	Reward	Net Service	World Quality Changes	Requirements
Help the Admiralty Prepare	N/A	50-612 Service (Scaling)
Help the Horticultural Society donate an indispensable amount to the war effort	1 x The Coffers of the Horticultural Society	50-646 Service (Scaling)	-
Supply the Admiralty with provisions	1 x Crate of Incorruptible Biscuits	932 Service	692 Service
Provide the Admiralty with powder and ballast	1 x Perfumed Gunpowder	646 Service	396 Service
Call in favours from the Docks	1 x Favours: The Docks	1000 Service	313 Service

Reconnaissance Flights

Once you have a Command, you can choose an Airship. Your choice of airships determines your Aerial Prowess and Aerial Armament, which will be used for challenges on flights.

At the Command of an Airship

Once you have chosen your airship, you can launch it at station IX with Engage in a Reconnaissance Flight and take to the air to scout out the roof.

There are two states to manage: No Danger, and 'Under Attack, and two menaces to watch out for:

• Fuel Depletion of your Airship - Most actions increase this
• Damage to your Airship - Getting attacked will increase this.

If either of these hits 8, you will have to make an emergency landing, and may take wounds. Turning back ends the excursion immediately, but cannot be done while you are under attack.

The difficulty for the various checks will increase the further away from the station you go.

Once you return back, you will need to turn in your surveys with Report your observations before you are allowed to fly again. This will gain you (10 * Surveys + 1250 * Sightings) x Service to London.

Strategy

The Sparrow-class is the best airship option, as outside of combat there are only Aerial Prowess checks and in combat the available Prowess and Armament checks are of equal difficulty (and harder than the non-combat checks, so it's better to avoid combat).

When traveling, for all but early game characters with low Shadowy, the best option (regardless of airship class) is always Employ stealth, since the Prowess check is easier. The optimal strategy with the Sparrow-class, with any values of Shadowy and Watchful, is to keep going until you hit the third Sighting of a Landmark on the Roof and then turn back, since at that point the chance of entering combat becomes significant, and combat has harder checks, with greater likelihood of failing and making less progress per action. For characters flying non-Sparrow-class airships, it generally makes sense to turn back after the second Landmark instead, though Vigilant pilots with 250+ Shadowy may reasonably go for 3.

If you do enter combat, with the Sparrow-class the best option is to Evade their attacks until you get out of combat.

Previous Activities

Previous activities can be done as long as the player does not advance their war effort past the required stage.

Plant Growing

Come grow plants in the greenhouse and raise your Horticultural Prestige.

In the Glasshouse is where the plant-growing activities are located. First you select a plant from options with varying levels of Horticultural Difficulty. This determines the challenge difficulty as well as the payout at the end. Each action will increase Growing a Prized Plant, until it reaches 8, at which point you Present your plant to the judges, which will reward you with Horticultural Prestige, which will be used to turn in for rewards. As well as growing your plant, each action will also increase Advancing the Horticultural Arts, which will unlock a new plant and a plant-growing option.

Your choice of plant determines your Horticultural Difficulty, but it also determines your Growing in your Care, Light Preference: and Growing in your Care, Classification:, which unlock certain growing options.

Plant Choices

Option	Requirements	Light Preference	Classification	Difficulty	Prestige
'Purple Maiden' lily-caps		Dark	Fungi	20	491
A cutting from your Singular Plant	Attending to the Needs of a Singular Plant 10	Shaded	Plantae	50	1617
'Marigold Madness' lily-caps		Dark	Fungi	70	2504
Peppercaps, hopefully prize-winning	Hand-picked Peppercaps 1	Dark	Fungi	100	3981
'Violant wing' lily-caps	Advancing the Horticultural Arts 100000	Dark	Fungi	150	6744
'Golden screamer' mandrakes		Direct Sunlight	Plantae	200	9803
Cautionary Orchids	Advancing the Horticultural Arts 1000000

The Horticultural Prestige given when you present your plant scales with its Horticultural Difficulty, with the formula $Prestige=10\times (Difficulty^{1.3})$.

Different options are available based on your level of Growing a Prized Plant, and they have their own requirements and challenges, but they all give 2 CP of Growing a Prized Plant on success.

Analysis

The Rubbery Skull can be sold for 125 x Nightsoil of the Bazaar to the Tentacled Servant, making that option worth playing at least once. Starstone Demark and Nodule of Fecund Amber are rare items that are otherwise difficult to acquire; however, they also have limited uses and are available in the Rat Market on occasion.

Other good options for cash-out are, in descending order of profit, Claim the box from Hell, as long as The Eyes Have Them will allow, followed by Claim the crate of Polythremean ammunition, and ultimately to Claim the crate of surplus Khaganian materiel. Both Khaganian and Polythremean options take full advantage of the Rat Market to maximise their output, so be sure to hold onto them until they can be sold, preferably in bulk, see analysis below.

The options that give bones are fairly unremarkable for a player with a Railway, but they are a good source for midgame players who otherwise have difficulty accessing most of them.

Rejected Ordinance most notably gives Book of Hidden Bodies, an item otherwise fairly annoying to acquire and so is highly recommended for early and midgame players who still have yet to do most of their PoSI Item Crafting. Players past that point might still want to grab one or two anyway, just in case. Unlawful Device can be profitably offloaded at The Rat Market as well. The Lost Research Assistant is not saleable normally, but can be redeemed during A War in Spite. Overall this option is quite profitable, especially if you still haven't done a lot of Sidestreets crafting, but it requires a bit of patience for World Qualities to redeem optimally.

Aside from these, for players without access to Balmoral, the best cash-out option was Tinned Ham, which sells to the Bazaar for one echo more than it costs to acquire. For those who do have access to Balmoral, the Bottle of Fourth City Airag: Year of the Tortoise is worth quite a bit more when arbitraged as Crackling Device in the Khanate and sold to the Rat Market. Also the Bottle of Greyfields 1882 that comes with the Airag is useful for The Demi-Monde: Bohemians and A Presumptuous Little Opportunity, making this a decent cash-out even pre-Balmoral.

Other than the one-time Rubbery Skull, there is currently no efficient way to exchange Service to London for Hinterland Scrip. Players waiting for such may wish to conserve their Service in case one becomes available.

The latest cash-out options are far more profitable than the older ones:

1) Claim the box from Hell is limited to 10 uses per character. However, it is also the most profitable by far.

• 1.7915 pennies / Service: (31250 + 5*100*10 - 420) / (5 * 4000) = 35830 pennies / 20000 Service = 1.7915.
• Optimal conversion requires cashing out the skulls 5 at a time via a fair exchange .
• Action cost for optimal cashing-in: 2 actions per 20000 service = 0.1 actions/1000 service.

2) Claim the crate of Polythremean ammunition is apparently unlimited and second best in profitability. Uniquely, it has two different calculations, because the optimal way to cash it out depends on if your actions are worth more or less than 3.75 Echoes.

If your actions are worth less than 3.75 Echoes apiece, you should sell the Storm-Threnodies 1 at a time, for 200 Rat-Shillings each.

• 1.46875 pennies / Service: (500 * 1 + 5 * 2000 + 25 * 50) / 8000 = 11750 pennies / 8000 Service = 1.46875
• 10000 / 11750 = 85% of those pennies are cashed in as Rat-Shillings.
• Action cost for optimal cashing-in: 5 actions per 8000 service = 0.625 actions / 1000 Service.

If your actions are worth more than 3.75 Echoes apiece, you should sell them 5 at a time, for 850 Rat-Shillings per 5.

• 1.28125 pennies / Service: (500 * 1 + 1 * 8500 + 25 * 50) / 8000 = 10250 pennies / 8000 Service = 1.28125
• 8500 / 10250 = 82% of those pennies are cashed in as Rat-Shillings.
• Action cost for optimal cashing-in: 1 action per 8000 service = 0.125 actions / 1000 Service.

3) Claim the crate of surplus Khaganian materiel is less profitable but more action-efficient than Polythremean ammunition.

• At most 1.277 pennies / Service: (40000 + 375*1250/100) / 35000 = 44687.5 pennies / 35000 Service = 1.277 pennies / Service.
• 40000/44687.5 = 89.5% of those pennies are converted into Rat-Shillings.
• Action cost for optimal cashing-in: 4.75 actions / 35000 Service = 0.135 actions / 1000 Service.

The London Horticultural Show Awards Ceremony

This is where you finally get your rewards for the plants you spent time producing. This is nominally valued at 1 / 100 x Horticultural Prestige. All of these will award Honorary Membership in the London Horticultural Society

Permanent Game Additions

The Horticultural Show has left a few permanent changes to London.

The Starved Embassy

A Cultural Exchange becomes available in Watchmaker's Hill. Once per week--reset with Time, the Healer--you may accompany a delegation of Londoners to the new Starved Embassy. You choose an offering to present to the Starved Men, who will give you something in return. The less valuable your offering is, the more likely you are to gain Scandal. After exchanging enough gifts, the Starved Men will present you with an Amber Ambassador's Seal.

Activity Additions

These activities became available during the clue-gathering phase, and closed after that completed, but after the conclusion of the event they have remained as permanent additions to their respective activities.

• Test the elastic limits of flesh and bone, a new Lab Experiment
• Stonefall Copse, a new Forgotten Quarter Expedition
• Saint Stalactite, a new Godfall Pilgrimage ending
