Start with 3-Arsenal. When you go all-out on an enemy, you may spend 1-Arsenal to:
+Pick Culture and one other.
+ +When your Family starts cultivating a new product, erase Surplus: Progress, Land, or Barter Goods. After a few months, harvest the product: get the surplus back, plus:
+At the start of each age you can skip the months of cultivation and go straight to the harvest.
+When an abnormal life form is brought back to your Family’s farm and reshaped to suit your needs, choose one:
+When your character dissects the body of unnatural creature, they can improvise a Device from its organs or fluids. In addition, your Family can sacrifice Surplus: Medicine, Crops or Livestock to activate Culture to make one of the other two surpluses.
+Whenever a Family you've traded with gains a Surplus in Land, Progress, Barter Goods or anything organic or medical, they may give you 1-Stake. If this takes you to 3-Stake, give them Surplus: Medicine, Crops or Livestock as if you had used Culture - with your Family gaining the side benefits as normal - and set Stake to 0.
+ +When you use Culture, characters gain one of these bonuses the next time they Tool Up according to the Surplus produced:
+In addition, your Family improves themselves over generations. Every time The Age Turns, pick one physical trait they’ve encountered sometime this Age (night vision, flight, photosynthesis, etc.) with the GM providing a downside. Your Family members will all exhibit that trait from then on.
+Pick two:
+ +Your Family has retained access to some of the wonders of the World Before. Choose one:
+It comes with 3-Power.
+When you activate it, roll +Power spent (minimum 1). On a 10+ it works perfectly, exactly as desired. On a 7-9 it does what you wanted, but it’s either out of action for the near future or there are weird anomalies (you choose). On a miss, it erupts with chaotic power and bizarre side effects.
+Choose how Power is regained:
+Your Family has a well-curated and extensive store of records on certain fields. Choose one:
+When your Character encounters a creature, item or situation covered by this field, tell everyone a fact about it and gain fleeting advantage acting on that information. The GM will also tell you something you can do to gain 1 Tech from the subject. You can erase a Surplus of knowledge (e.g. Progress, Scouts, Lore, etc) to pick an additional field of knowledge.
+Your Family sees hidden relevance in stories that others overlook. When they use Diplomacy you can ask a follow-up question, and when you Uncover Secrets you always get to ask a second question.
+When your Family puts together a device powerful enough to shape the local area for generations, say what they want it to do. The GM will give one to three of the following conditions:
+When you use Power Up, you can spend extra points of Tech. For each point past the first, roll an extra die. You still take the two highest.
+Take Stock in Trade and one other:
+ +Your Family has a particular product range they trade in, and you can expect to have those wares around unless your Family is deeply in need and Mood is at -3. Once per session, you can draw on one of your Stocks in Trade to boost a roll's results by one category: 6- to 7-9, 7-9 to 10+.
+Choose one to three, depending on whether you want to sell one boutique stock or have a wide array of wares:
+When your Family brings goods to market, roll +Reach. On a hit you’re able to sell them for a fair price. On a 7-9 pick 1, 10+ pick 2:
+When you delve deep into your Family’s reserves in search of something useful, describe what it is and what you want it for. It should fit with your Stock in Trade or a Surplus of yours. The GM will give you 1-3 downsides, and then you can decide whether you still want to take it:
+When your Family tries to work out the worth of a new acquisition, roll +Reach. On a hit you have a good idea how much you could get for it, as well as some details on its past owner(s). On a 7-9 choose one:
+When you would use Diplomacy to meet someone who's bought from you before, instead automatically get an audience. They will always be willing to at least hear you out.
+Whenever you lose a Surplus for any reason, hold 1; spend 1 hold to get advantage on an action that surplus could help.
+Take Laying Down the Law and one other:
+ +Everything you do is motivated by a strict moral code, held by all the Family. Answer these questions:
+Who always deserves protection?
+Your Family and Character have advantage while protecting them.
+ + +Who always deserves your justice? +
You have advantage while pursuing them.
+ + +What does your Family’s code prevent you from doing in the name of justice? +
Your Family and Character roll with disadvantage on all moves if you go further, until the GM thinks you’ve made amends.
+ + +When your Family goes into a community looking for information on a target, roll +Reach. On a 7-9 learn 1, on a 10+ learn 3. Tell us how you find this out.
+As long as your Family patrols a region and keeps its citizens safe, they’ll know through rumours and whispers when someone breaks their laws. Its people will gradually start behaving according to your principles over time.
+When you brandish your Family’s authority in a non-hostile land, you can recruit a gang of locals to fight at your side. As long as you work towards bringing that target to justice you can use them as a group of Followers (Quality +1, Expertise: vigilante justice), and when they fight alongside you they reduce the harm you take by 1.
+When you arm up your Family and move out en masse to bring justice to your quarry, get 1 hold for each point of Grasp. You can spend Tech to get extra hold, 1-for-1. While you hunt, you may spend 1 hold to:

+ +Your Family is dedicated to hunting Behemoths – titanic creatures that stalk the land and are hostile to human life. Each has unique strengths, hungers and capabilities, but they share a common origin. As a group, work out what sort of form your world’s Behemoths take – are they organic, robotic, elemental, ephemeral?
+ +When you scout for signs of behemoth attack, pick a danger in the world as an omen of an incoming assault. Say how it threatens Families of your choice, who become Alerted. You can spend Treaty you have on one Alerted group on any other.
+When you first find out about a specific Behemoth, name one Hostile Ground condition it surrounds itself with. Your Vehicles and Outfits automatically avoid disadvantage in that environment, and can augment other's gear to resist it at the cost of 1 Tech each.
+ +Your vehicles are the edge that allow you to bloody the nose of the Behemoth, and wipe the floor with regular foes. When you take one of your special vehicles out of storage, choose 2:
+Every time the you use it pick one:
+If a Behemoth is killed and you get access to its remains, you gain Surplus: Behemoth Tech. When used in a Wonder this replaces any two of its regular requirements. Tell us how the project was warped in alien ways.
+When you issue a Kaiju Threat Alert, gain 6 hold. When you act against the threat, spend 1 hold to roll with advantage. If your character is directly confronting the threat, spend all remaining hold after rolling to set one of their dice to the hold spent.
++
When you lure a Behemoth to rampage over a faction or Family under Kaiju Threat Alert, spend up to 3 points of Data and roll +Sleight. On a hit the Behemoth destroys one of their Surpluses per point of data spent; on a 7-9 it also destroys one of your Surpluses. On a 6- it unleashes great power and massive collateral damage, creating a new Hostile Ground. Don’t miss.
+Take two:
+ +The water cycle and the life cycle are one, and your Family understands them better than any other. When you erase a Surplus, recover 1 Tech from the depths.
+When you Claim by Force in a marine environment, assistance from creatures of the deep gives you Advantage to the roll. Spend 1 tech to call a hulking beast onto land, gaining advantage on all Claim by Force rolls as long as it survives.
+You are free from the hope that the sea will ever rest. Instead, you’ve learned to sail through the tempest. When your Family hits -2 Mood, you can roll +Grasp: on a hit gain 2 of Surplus: Barter Goods, Trade, and Progress, and erase a Need. Say how the sea provides for you in your moment of need. On a miss, the GM can make as hard a move as they like.
+Sometimes we must discard the old, embrace the new, and run headlong down an unwavering course. When your Family faces a Trial during the Turning of Ages, gain Surplus: Motivation and 1 hold per Trial faced. Spend 1 hold to give a Family move advantage.
+The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever. You can spend 1-Tech and work a special ritual to let a Family's characters ignore Disadvantage from underwater hostile grounds. This lasts until the next Age. If you do this for another Family or faction, you have advantage on Conduct Diplomacy or Find Common Ground rolls with them for the rest of time.
+Take Faith of the Fallen and one other:
+ +Your Family has a faith they cling to more ardently than life. Choose one tenet:
+++The restoration and healing of humanity.
+The protection of the unfortunate.
+The renunciation of the Before.
+Transformation into gods.
+Travel to a pristine and unspoiled land.
+
At the start of each Age past the first, count those who are in line with your tenet as Righteous and everyone else as Corrupt.
+When your Family gains something that furthers their tenet, hold 1. When an emissary of your Family – including your Character – draws on this vision of future perfection, spend 1 hold to:
+When your Family makes an example out of a member of a Corrupt Family or Faction, hold 1. Spend hold 1-for-1 to force someone, Righteous or Corrupt, to choose one of the following:
+When you whip your Family into a frenzy then send them into battle, you can gain Need: Recruits, Need: Medicine and/or Need: Leadership. For each you take, choose one:
+When your Family condemns a powerful figure or organisation in a public place, roll +Grasp. On a hit, they're now counted as Corrupt. On a 7-9, choose one; on a 10+ choose two.
+If you have 5 Treaty or more on a Corrupt Family or Faction, you can denounce their wicked ways. At some point of this Age the GM will unleash a natural disaster upon them, devastating their holdings.
+The Corrupt Family or Faction is now considered Righteous. Lose 1-Treaty with every other Family or Faction; deep inside they know all that pain and loss came from your decrees.
+Take two moves:
+ +When you attack from orbit, raze a terrain feature or a Surplus belonging to another Family or Faction. Then roll +Grasp. On a 7-9 choose 2, on a 10+ choose 1:
+When you march upon an opponent, bringing to bear all your advanced arms and ships, roll +Reach. On a 7-9 choose 1, on a 10+ choose 2:
+When you roll a 7+ on Subterfuge, you may declare that some members of the targeted Family or faction have been replaced with duplicates loyal to you.
+When you activate the sleeper cell, roll +Sleight. On a hit, choose one:
+On a 10+ you are given access to a safe house you can use while you’re in that Family or Faction’s territory.
+Spend 1 Tech to instantly relocate your Character or one of your assets to the safety of one of your bases.
+When you use your grasping lights to abduct someone mentally or bodily,
+You’re perfectly adapted to environments lethal to humans. Pick 1-3 tags all your characters have from now on:
+For each you take, add an extra penalty to one of their harm boxes - damage to life support reveals how poorly adapted you are to the Homeland.
+Take Living Machines and one more:
+ +By default, all your Family members are synthetic. They do not need to eat, drink or breathe, but can only use Professional Care when they have access to technological surpluses: Progress, Research, Engineers, etc.
+You alone control the miraculous nanotechnology. When you use your foundries to break down resources and reassemble them, pick one:
+You may spend Tech to boost your follower's Quality, 1-for-1. When Claiming by Force, add this to the availabel options:
+Whenever you gain Tech outside of the Hive, you also gain 1 Data.
+Machines need very little to go on. Your Mood is locked at +2, regardless of Surplus and Needs. You still have limits: if you would ever gain a sixth Need, trigger Fall into Crisis instead.
+When working together with another Family, the effect of one of their long term moves (such as Weird Science, This is a Civilised Land, etc.) will be implemented on a new scale of magnitude - either a much broader scale, or a far longer duration.
+Take two moves:
+ +Choose what gives your Family a ferocious edge in battle:
+Start with 3-Arsenal.
+When you go all-out on an enemy, you may spend 1-Arsenal to:
Conscription: - When you show a group of outsiders that you have the power to bring them pain, ruin or glory, - your Family can gain Surplus: recruits but choose one:
+When you show a group of outsiders that you have the power to bring them pain, ruin or glory, your Family can gain Surplus: Recruits but choose one:
