Quote:EDIT: And Laddie, as I said above sometimes you just need to accept that you are too late to join the battle without imbalancing it. "First come first serve"?
Whilst true, that's not at all fun. I would rather try to be inclusive to everyone who wants to join in on the fun (because big group fights ARE A LOT OF FUN....until the server lags out, anyways). It's simply a matter of folks who want to join in showing a bit of sportsmanship and common sense, and not try to make the battle OVERLY lop-sided.
Sure...it could be easy to just jump into a running battle with an extra Bomber/Capship and blow the enemy straight to eternity. But, ...much more interesting if you come in an HF/LF or something that, while giving you a numerical advantage, might not translate into overwhelming force in the fight. Thus...everyone gets to participate, no one has to feel like they missed out, and nobody is gonna have solid reason to run and cry, "waaaa...you ganked us!"

Why not? The Rheinland "front" is much less so since the JGs are destroyed, and the Rheinland fleet isn't strong enough to make a direct push anyways, especially since they should be focused on cleaning things up back home with the Hessians.
Liberty, on the other hand, still has a booming economy, and a strong Navy. In this instance, it's simply not beneficial to them to continue fighting Rheinland, especially with the GRN so close and Bretonia needing all that help.
So, I wouldn't say that Liberty couldn't afford a war on 2 fronts...it's just not directly beneficial for them at this point.
