SCRA is fearful that Gallia will come for them once they are done with Bretonia, so they hatch evil plan with Bretonia to fight Gallia to stave off destruction that was sure to come in the future.
Bretonia agrees and both sides attack Gallia due to it being bigger, meaner and incredibly powerful in an effort to preserve their own, with SCRA sending token forces to help manage the situation while the majority of their forces either combating the Corsairs for dominance in the Omegas and against Rheinland.
SCRA having forces fighting Gallia serves several purposes, it shows the civilians of Bretonia that the Coalition does care for them and is willing to shed it's own blood for their freedom, it allows them to monitor Bretonia's own fleet strengths and once Gallia is defeated they will have intelligence on how strong Bretonia is and how much it would take to finish the already-weakened house off and also it allows the Coalition to prepare to plant the seeds of the Coalition in Gallia once it's transformed into a Democratic Republic and have agents working from the inside to topple it and install either a puppet government or a fully Coalition Government.
true but the fact of the matter is that you could have conjured up a similar but opposing plotline, scra cohorting with gallia to thwart their shared next-door neighbour, an imperialistic monarchy in the immediate vicinty of SCRA-land, in the return for the scra keeping their little system and pewing annoying pirats in the omegas. besides grn cant hold all that territory if they are still on the offence, scra would know that and take advantage of it, inciting communist revolts in weaked bretland and planting seeds of discords in the gallic populace.
its easy to make up some story line or grand idea to rationalize your actions, problem is when you can easily substitute that grand idea for another and it would make just as much/little sense.

Yes, that was also something we considered, Anaximander, but we certainly don't deserve ridicule because we chose one course of action instead of another.
So many assumptions and accusations were made toward us in this thread and it's really quite ridiculous.
As outsiders/nonmembers, the fact is, you guys don't -know- what's going on behind the scenes, you may not know the RP background, but that doesn't merit ridicule.

SCRA going to shot GRN,because GRN are infected? How you know about this by the story?
The SCRA isn't shooting the GRN because of them being infected, I was making other points wheN I mentioned that bit.
If the SCRA shouldn't fly to Leeds to shoot GRN in defense of their own long term interests, than the RNC shouldn't be flying to California and Magellan, or even Texas, when they have LWB and RHA to fight right inside Rheinland.
LOL.
Do you get how ridiculous this is?
If Bretonia falls, the Coalition would have absolutely zero hope of survival -IF- the GRN chose to invade their territory, THAT is the RP reason behind the SCRA seeking a Non Aggression Pact with Bretonia. The RISK of potential Gallic invasion is too strong for the Coalition to simply ignore them and continue to weaken the Bretonian military.
It's all about survival ultimately.
So you are saying the Coalition should defend its enemy of Bretonia for their long term interest of trying to make a fruitless revolution in Bretonia.
And the RM shouldnt try to win the war vs Liberty because they have the LWB.

but a year ago/two years ago GRN declared SCRA hostile to the crown and terrorists.
Quote:You forget about Corsair big fleet in omegas and going to shot GRN.In this time by the story,if you would like so to do,Corsairs can capture your home because you fighting somewhere in Leeds.
So this is normal ye? That you can fly in Leeds and shot GRN,and stupid Corsairs cant find JH in Omega 5 to Omega 52 and kill you all?
damn.
There is no point in installing communist regime in Bretonia if it is going to fall next day to Gallic incursion and have even worse monarchy in place. Don't you think it is waste of resources? After Gallia threat is gone, you will have weakened Bretonia - then SCRA can do their revolution.
Also, why SCRA should believe GRN they are going to leave them alone? Just because they say so?

Do you have any idea how ridiculous YOU sound?
The Coalition is defending itself, not Bretonia. Good lord, I'd hate to have you as a general in a war.
