Eden Prime is a fairly powerful colony, but the real target is Terra Nova, the crown jewel of the Aliance's colonial program. The Alliance naval assets in the area are a major second target. I figure that if I grab that, I'll have Humanity by the balls and will be able to grab a very nice peace.

Even an offensive is a victory in and of itself, but a successful one will be deeply powerful.


Not if I can help it, give me half an hour so I can grab breakfast and have a morning shower then I'll kick ya from ma cluster.


What are ya doing in mah swamp!

Something is broken in your archive. Why do you have random upgrades copied into it? Also, your special upgrades were never approved as gameplay elements. They should not be there.

Built stuff won't appear until next month. I have 50 posts to destroy you.

Also, your Second Fleet has two dreadnoughts. I have eight. You have three corvette packs. I have a carrier and 26 frigates. You have one sapper division. I have fourteen divisions, including one fully upgraded infantry and several artillery units.

This assault was precisely timed to coincide with the Alliance elections. Political tension was high, and any race would have been deeply contested, leaving Humanity fragmented regardless of who won. The fact that the xenophobic nationalist third party beat everyone else out was simply a lucky break, leaving the Council ambivalent towards you and your population divided.

You are trapped with your forces deeply spread out, protecting a massive empire. As Sun Tzu said, he who protects everything protects nothing. Less than a quarter of your fleet is on station, and as such it will be shredded with minimal losses. Counterattacks will face a numerically and psychologically superior foe.

After mopping up anything you have in sector, I leave you paralyzed. You could attempt a counter, but that would be risky. Additionally, it would require all of your forces to participate and as such would leave Earth, Mars, Arcturus Prime, and Grissom Academy open to destruction.

You are trapped. Accept my gracious offer of surrender or perish.

Those upgrades are for when my new special program is finished written up... still have a fair amount of editing to do so they are just there for the purpose of waiting for that project to finish.

And like hell we will, unless you just mean for Terra Nova to surrender we will never give human space to slavers.

Oh, and Gam, please get your butt over to the IC and get a response up. If it's godmod, then I will unleash my hammer. Not a ban-hammer, of course, but the Lesser Hammer of Disapproval. There's no way you could mass your entire navy over Eden Prime immediately. Use what ships you actually have there.

I haven't the faintest idea. Not the Batarian Expert. Though you can't flank him.. or by pass that fleet he has there. That system is the only one that leads to the Batarian held cluster.

Yes, but all of my fleets can jump into that system, none of them are cut off besides the second fleet who is there.

It would take time for word of the attack to spread. Time to coordinate your fleets from various places, and then time to actually make the fleets go to that system. In that time the Batarians could have already taken the planets.

All I would need to is get my fleets there... and quite sure they would just be able to use the Extranet to alert HQ of the attack, if not send a runner.
