      • Chapter 20.5
        Balance of Power

        Here is something to think about
        You can't win a war any more than you can win an earthquake.
        While Mr. Y had survived both a shield impact and a rogue attack, it was not a clean war. Indeed, the quagmire had weakened his forces by 25%, erasing most of his edge against the Socialist bloc. With Kit's comrades ahead in the production race, the military edge would be lost in just a few more years.

        Furthermore, Vetko was baseless, armed, and dangerous. Things looked bleak.

        --------------

        Still, the capitalists were living large compared to most of the galaxy. Three powers had been reduced to refugees, while a fourth hung onto a single captured base. Whereas previously the two superpowers controlled 2/3rds of the galaxy's firepower, that number had since climbed to almost 75%.

        • I think we should make randomly sitting out in space for more than one turn count as death. This is just getting stupid.

            • GO2 rules seem to have removed this problem quite sufficiently. People are dropping like flies in that.

              • I'm the only one who went baseless sofar, Skanky.
                And you know how I solved that.

                  • Hmmm...I'd say it's no longer possible for the little guys to band together against the giants; the differences are just too big. The only hope is a big battle between the superpowers.

                      Yeah, 50% attrition the first turn, eliminated by JEBUS the second turn or something

                      • I think that you should get three tries to get some bases back, else your tanks run out of fuel and you have to walk back to Germany.

                        • I think we go with GO2 rules rather than try to tinker with GO1.n rules again.

                          • I'm not totally sure I like all of the Go2.0 rules yet, we seem to have lost the 24 bp for bases 7-12.

                            And the strangeness of having to always leave the base at home means 2 on 1 attacks can sometimes even be won by the defender, but at the expense of making a single attack less successful.

                            • I'm not a fan of GO2. Jettison M, D and seperate defensive OoBs, and tweak the attrition rules, and GO1 is just fine, thanks.

                              • Attrition rules need not exist. In GO1 baseless fleets were eliminated. Why not return to that?
