This is my pure SPECULATION. Gallia starts steamrollering both Bretonia & Kusari. They form an alliance, but still get steamrolled. Liberty & Rheinland (the ones with more technological and militaristic builds, rsepectivly) deploy a joint all-out offensive against Gallia. After a long drawn out war Gallia gets pushed back by L & R, undercutted by the Council, and crushed by the Gallic version of the Das Wilde (Because they allow importation of artifacts, they become "hypnotized" by them, and the nomads infect them)
I think it's a brillant storyline. I mean, everybody knew the Gallic invasion would come one day, so I guess all the compaints were about timing.
I don't play any Gallic char for the moment, but I might try it, since I fear everybody will wanna play BAF fighter just to save the day, which is great.
I'm eager to read the next chapters of the .86 background.
( PS : We didn't just invent Croissants. Think about it. Where do you think the words "chef", "cuisine" come from. I could say we have the best food but it'd be presomptuous. But we have the best wine, that's a fact. But again, we have "four hundred battleships" only in video games...)
I think that the conquest is interesting. It would definitely force Rheinland's hand in dealing with the threat. Gallia would want Rheinland's resources, and perhaps launch an attack through Kusari to various Rheinland systems. Then the war would really heat up. Rheinland would fight to the last.
' Wrote:I understand that Gallia forces are more powerful than the other four houses but they aren't 'OMGZ R SUPER HUMANZ' they can be defeated and IF Kusari/Bretonia fight together I can see Gallia being quite easily being pushed back, and also Liberty/Rhienland way also see this and assist Kusari/Bretonia. Gallia is the same size house as the other four and they have a larger pirate situation. I don't see how they could pull this off for long.
Just me.
Story (post 1) says how Gallia has both massive population advantages as well as huge resource pools. RTFA.

Doesn't Sirius have both that deadly bacteria from that planet in Newcastle as well as cardamine? Just think if either were to contaminate the population centers of Gallia?
The actual storyline may actually find a way to incorporate the Phantoms into it! Or some really not nice Cryer types.
Well... Ummm... Yeah. Not sure if I like it. If Bretonia, Kusari and the IMG are pretty much done for, Gallians own a good third of Sirius, it seems. Who's going to be able to stop them? Maybe the Corsairs, Order, and Zoners together? I can't really see it working that well, but I'm gonna be really ticked off if Bretonia ends up completely dead, or if Kusari never gets it's naval forces back.
You know what 400 GRN battleship means guys? It's a prefect reason for anyone to get a GRN BS and fly around. It's totally supported by the story line too;)
And that gives any Bret bombah pilots just drools.
I agree with the first comments about steamrolling everything over. I just wonder, when there is about 5% of all players in Gallia why they get to run over rest of the server population?
And also, why do we bother ingame playing while this is obviously browser game? No matter how many GRN ships we shoot down, it will just be stated they run us over.
Uuh?
