I'd be okay with Colonials if they were in snubs or bombers, but if I see a Zephyr I'm going to throw myself out of a window.

People keep seeming to miss the fact that this is a Liberty Navy Operation. Not some drunks going out for pot shots on the old backyard fence.

In other questions: Can Corsairs help GRN?

Would make a better preliminary target for a push on the Oubli and also focuses the event into an attack/defend parameter, which will garner a lot more attention.

Also, another interesting thing to note about the Oubli is that lore-wise, it's said that the entire command staff that's overseeing and coordinating the ground offensive on Leeds is sat safe in there. Would blowing the ship up with those staff inside then be a factor in the storyline?

Did you even, uh, you know, attend the last event? Just because there aren't many GRN|, doesn't mean there aren't any GRN. NPC battleship spawns will also be used to support the smaller side.

In addition, seeing as people keep getting confused about what counts as an infocard ally, I'll run through what they say right now to clear everything up once and for all:

TEAM A:

BAF - BPA, Bretonian Corporations,
LN - LSF, LPI, Liberty Corporations (Leeds not in ZoI).

Strange factions: BHG and Exiles (alliances noted in their infocards, but not on the other faction's).

TEAM B:

GRN - GRP, Gallic Corporations.

---

Which means technically, other local groups which specifically are not invited (unless the admins want to specifically invite them) include:

CR, Council, SCRA, Outcasts, Corsairs, Gaians, Mollys, Freelancer, Bretonian Privateers. Anyone else not specifically mentioned above.

May I ask why Council ended up in the "not invited" category while Exiles, and a semi-generic faction such as BHG could make it into the "invited" category? I believe Council is on par with Exiles regarding the relevant aspects and beats BHG at them:

1. Allied with Bretonia as per lore (BHG is technically employed by all houses, lawful entites, so nothing special here)
   
2. At war with Gallia: Council is the most ancient enemy of GRN (afaik BHG can't do crap against lawfuls, not even as part of a bounty contract, that might have been changed though, but they are still just bounty hunters)
   
3. Close proximity and ZoI allowance (BHG is Sirius-wide and so are their bases spread throughout Sirius, but we aren't inviting Freelancers, Zoners, Junkers either, are we?)

In short: I'd rather not categorize participants merely on infocards, and would rather look at lore behind their potential involvement.

(I also wonder what Bretonian corporations would do in a battle, but I can only guess that you listing them as invited while also being a corporate leader yourself is just a coincidence.)
