[Official Event] Operation Pesticide

[Valdorel]

we all knew from the beggining that liberty had to win no matter what,

Oh I know Liberty had to win from an inRP perspective. The Penn Zoners cannot hold off the LibNavy if they want to take the system, but un-rigging some of the fine details, such as the LNS-Alma being lost in the process could have made it feel like the Zoners at least made LibNavy pay a decent price for the system, rather than just waiting to lose. And ultimately the loss of one battleship and other assets is a drop in the bucket for Liberty.

Of course this could all be moot depending on what exactly Part 2 looks like.
