Rheinland and Liberty

[Lucend]

In conclusion, Rheinland probably needs more forces. Numerical superiority allows Liberty to stay on the offensive, even if they take high losses. They might need to quell unrest at home with marshal law though.

Good point, Sonja. Humanity can hold out against impossible odds, you can rain fire down on cities and town, and the populace will eat dirt and live in caves as long as the barbarians are at the gate. But, when the war is on another front popular unrest will start to turn into civil disobedience.

Especially if that populace is deprived of household appliances, or more applicable, raw materials to keep the manufacturing going. I can see this war turning into a war for the Liberty populace, more than for planets or stations, and that might be interesting.

"The thirteen saloons that had lined the one street of Seney had not left a trace. The foundations of the Mansion House hotel stuck up above the ground. The stone was chipped and split by the fire. It was all that was left of the town of Seney. Even the surface had been burned off the ground.
Nick looked at the burned-over stretch of hillside, where he had expected to find the scattered houses of the town and then walked down the railroad track to the bridge over the river. The river was there."
