People are saying that the New Orions come out and kick everyone's ass? I don't know. I've seen them come out, yeah, but they didn't do much ass kicking.
I was in the middle of conquering the evon (and by the way, I never saw them build one troop ship ever), and all of a sudden, boom, the new orions show up at my doorstep with 120 ships. I'm scared ****less, but they don't attack at all. Instead, they march through my territory, get to the front I've opened with the evon, and just SIT there in system doing nothing. It's pretty stupid. For some reason I can't invade the planets in that system now (I guess the NO are blockading). It's been about fifty turns now, and I've stripped all my defenses away from that system because they're just not doing anything. They've had plenty of opportunity to decimate either me or the remnants of the evon (who stay alive on four planets in that system because I can't invade), and they've done nothing.
So why are they here? My guess is that they got pissed because I started using NBC weapons in my ground invasions. But it seems ridiculous that their response to me violating a treaty is to march to a half-conquered system and just SIT there. If nothing else, it makes the "Space Comnbat" screen pop up every turn, which is annoying.
