This excellent post should be moved to the War Room [:)]

Let's fill in the missing details first and, once that's done, start a new Cult post with the relevant info in post #1 in the war room.

I've updated post #6 to this point. Keep the info coming.

Here some confirmation Data that I am gathering from 1.03Beta10. No Data or lack of effect mention does not means there is nothing, just I did not find it

Is there any way to make a cult more attractive? Or is it just inverse to your Ethics? It would make sense if the more you went in one direction, the more attractive an opposite cult would be.

I'm asking because in my current run (Hardcore Autocracy/Enforcement/Fist, actually have gotten to 90 Autocracy a few times), I am suppressing every other cult, and supporting the Shadow Sect. (I don't have the Apochryphal Order sadly, they sound good too). But the Shadow sect languishes with a few % of the population and attractiveness in the 70s. Are they just not edgy and countercultural enough?

You did the "Discuss Policy regarding this cult" thing and "change Policy in favor of the cult"?
And you also put the other cults onto "Supressed" to "Outlawed", right?

You can find hte cards for it under Nation.

Yes

What is the "Natural Follower Point" for them and the others?

Pretty sure that one only grows if you hit the Maximum, until eventually you hit 100% (and in the beta, it can not actually go past 100%).

Well, the most important Cult is still missing... where's the Cult of LIS?!

What do you mean?
LIS is here. There. And everywhere.
It reaches most places, but there is never enough of it at any one place.

Here are the appeal, relationships and percentages of the cults, and the national ethic. Where can I find Natural Follower Point?

I think someone wanted to make a post in the War Room out of that, once more information had been gathered?
