RE: BAF, GRN, LNS and Leeds and Magellan. - sindroms - 10-23-2013
Sooo....that is where the current raid hotspots are?
RE: BAF, GRN, LNS and Leeds and Magellan. - Sabru - 10-23-2013
Is Magellan actually in GRN's zone of influence?
the ID doesnt seem to include it, despite the actions of GRN indies.
Admins, an answer please?
RE: BAF, GRN, LNS and Leeds and Magellan. - SummerMcLovin - 10-23-2013
Check your LN ID, Spazzy. Northern Bretonia has been added to their ZoI to assist in the defence against Gallia.
RP reasons were covered by Fallen, although it seems his usual exaggeration and heavy bias
Going by my opinion here, the 'free' LN and GRN fleets are roughly equal, but the GRN have significant forces in reserve that need to be repaired in Leeds.
Leeds isn't some massive stronghold of BAF, anything above ground would be Valored to pieces pretty soon. The vast complex of mine shafts, quarries and bunkers underground house a significant resistance force to slow the repurposing of Leeds to the GRN's needs (and they do need it).
The GRN are currently trying to cut off Bretonia from Liberty given their main invasion routes have been severed. Manchester and Magellan are the most significant targets, although the former has some difficulty given the asteroid fields (their main invasion corridor to Edinburgh through Lewis was clear, Tau-23 had no significant forces to stop them, then they had gates for T-31 and Leeds).
BAF fleets are the majority of strength in Dublin and Cambridge, while they also have a presence in Manchester, New London and Newcastle where Liberty likely has more ships (along with the other various allies).
Lastly for ship quality, Liberty does have the most advanced because of DK research or something, while Gallia would come afterwards since it's been a big focus of their entire existence. Bretonian ships tend to be pretty old but sturdy, and most of those not in Cambridge have suffered lots of damage over the years.

Dear Summer McAdmin, could you please answer my next questions, possibly in bolded green, please? How come Magellan isn't in the Zone of Influence of the Gallic Royal Navy if the system suddenly became the next warfront? How come admins aren't doing anything with the ones breaking the ID rules in Magellan if it didn't?

Im kinda feeling lost in disco lore.
Gallia info page says (exact text):" Gallia's technology advances have focused extensively on military research, and even the most venerable of its centuries-old battleships can stand toe-to-toe with some of the modern warships employed by Sirian forces."
It means, that pre-Valor, assembled, let's say in 600's AS, can hold it own against most of ships being made in the end of 700's and early 800's AS? In same time, watching, how great is Gallia's suxes' in war, I can say, the got pre-Valors of 500's AS.
On the other hand, does Sirius even had chances against those, who has technological advantage in many centuries? They could have engines, which could throttle massive ship easely as fighter. Sheild, which could be barely penetrated, weapon, which could work on complete different principles. Im not even talking about "non shooting warfire devices" like scanner jamers, (alright, I'll say it ) CLOAKS, dunno what else... gravity beam, which could throw asteroids into enemy ships.
Would we now much our own forces in 2213 year? I doubt...
So, don't you even think, that Gallia could have complete other way and principles of fighting war? With high-end technology, would their strategy be more elegant and effective, than just stupid massive armada deployment?
May be, let's remove part, about Gallia's tech advantage, leaving part, only about numbers, so it could feat story better.

Quote:Liberty is in the process of the biggest mobilisation in its history...leadership of Liberty focus on the greater foe: a great portion of the Liberty Navy fleet is now on the move to Magellan to catch the advancing Royal Navy of Gallia in a pinch.Its expected that a huge armada of LN west fleet will soon clash with GRN invading forces, going straight for their borders. Considering the gates were destroyed (those that connected Liberty with Rheinland and those between Bretonia and Leeds) -the only real enemy for Liberty remains to be GRN invaders.
Quote:The house Gallia begins their assault on Sirius in earnest by brushing aside the Bretonian Armed Forces and seizing the Leeds system, changing the political landscape of Sirius forever. Governments and regional powers far and wide now seek to respond to the situation, either by launching themselves toward a desperate united front against a seemingly unstoppable enemy, or seeking to use the resulting chaos for their own benefit.Leeds is not lost entirely - the planet is still in Bretonian control. Years of mobilisation, building of bunkers and planetary shields, delivery of milions of troops - have turned this planet in to one of the most protected in the sector. GRN are currently fighting with these forces on the surface while Bretonian smugglers are delivering more goods to maintain their troops.
While the remaining part of the area is not "bretonian"- all allies to the Queen and enemies of Gallia can freely fly and fight the invaders, do guerilla warfare or whatever they find necessary to disrupt the movement of the gallic forces and possibly - to slow them down a little.
Magellan and Manchester are possibly the two new "Leeds" - battlefields. Considering the alliance between Liberty and Bretonia remains strong and that Liberty are now turning their gaze on west(gallia), instead east (rheinland) - its logical and fully in RP to see LN/LNS and etc in Magellan, Bretonia space and even Leeds. (Ofcourse going in Leeds would be suicide but still its ingame possibility)
dude where can i get the plot for 4.87
Link will help

Magellan is actually listed as GRN ZoI...

There is a readme File in your Discovery Folder, which has the current story in it Vasuv.
And even if Magellan wasn't listed as ZoI for Gallia, a little logical thinking and general RP background should also give you a good guess where it's alright to engage and where not.
It's not all black and white all the time, even if the ZoI are listed, there should still be flexibility with those issues.
RE: BAF, GRN, LNS and Leeds and Magellan. - EisenSeele - 11-15-2013
Apparently Liberty was only using a tiny portion of its ships to fight Rheinland. They currently have PLOT amounts of ships currently deployed in Bretonia, while having at least two PLOT worth of fleets still fighting to keep the front lines in Rheinland :|
You'd think that by now, they would have run out of... well, everything.
Ah well, only unpopular houses get hit with pesky things called rp consequences
