If the LN were to suddenly say "We know where Buffalo is, it's over there, we are blowing it up now" - people would jump on them.
Not only because of the RP regarding it being hidden but also because it kinda shafts the Rogues.
H-Fuel as a commodity is bloody critical to the survival of humanity in space.
It can't be thrown into the same arguements as others simply because of the sheer scale of it.
No H-fuel means entire planets could starve to death.
Cutting off H-fuel to Liberty seriously screws over the nation so bloody much that it ought to be something that is jumped on, much like the LN attacking Buffalo.
Liberty could attack Bretonia tomorrow.
It would result in some great activity, a really non-static mod and some fun.
It would also be completely and utterly retarded in terms of roleplay. It could probably cripple both Houses at a time when neither need such a thing.
People would create an uproar if the LN were to try.
Yet here is a similar thing.
Only instead of invading with a navy, the bloodflow to the heart is stopping.
