ok, i go through the number, too early to chart optimal routes, but there are some fact and info from 0.39.2

Research: the only researches that matter are "orc diversification" and "sex - purity", the first grant a +1 Hester score (the priest orc during the 'ivalan succubi' vote), the latter depend by the route take/pursuit, if the ivalan succubi are let join the church the research done grant a +5 motion score in the last vote, a research started, but not completed gives +3 motion score, in the case the succubi are rejected the research let ask Kerannii her vote for diverge the church or let the succubi build a new religion, in this case don't be a difference from the research done or only started.

Disturbance - Church: in the aftermath of the fucklord assault to yhilin there is a choice to prioritize one group above the rest. Helping the church grant a +2 Nabith score and a +1 Hester Score. For now the bonus are unnecessary for Nabith if you have the best in her first dialogue (Religion >= 25), adress her one time in the first three votes, propose light reform or moderate reform and having done at least 10 Orcent Bar Talk (there are 11 bar talks, this mean for reach the 10 you need fund the warrior rings in the second house of petitions in Yhilini or funded the booze shack in Tarran'Kan Slum), well if you want only light reform the first Nabith adressing can be replaced with orcent bar talk. for Hester her thresholds are very low and can matter in ivalan succubi joined last vote, but it's not required.

Jhenno Target: If you make a deal with Esmera OR Kerannii there is a path to reach the best threshold in the third vote without his help and he can be used to gain two influence point and one Hester Score point.

Esmera Deal: It's possibile reach all the best threshold whitout strike a deal with Esmera, it's very hard, but doable. in this scenario the lustlord temple expansion investment is required and for the "succubi join" vote is required complete the sex-purity research OR the ivalan bank investment, for Passing Moderate Reform it's needed override Hester Vote (Hester Score 0/-3)

Kerannii Deal: The deal is required if refused Esmera Deal and take the +3 Hester Score for being blunt ("Shape the World").

Double Deal: Alwasy counterproductive.

Lustlord temple expansion: required only if you don't strike a deal with Esmera.

Hester first dialogue: ATM be blunt (shape the world) is the best option, "acceptance" for the succubi can be used for subpar o peculiar playthrough for reach a better threshold in the third vote.

this are my "trial run", they are not the only to achive the threshold, obviously. [Esmera Deal] On -> https://pastebin.com/VWkN26Cy [Kerannii Deal] On -> https://pastebin.com/RfQZvjSn Both [Esmera Deal] and [Kerannii Deal] Off -> https://pastebin.com/p996RXuS
