Invasion Discussion

[Moira Skaldi]

If organics were efficient, I would not have to process them.

Objectives are still being hashed out it seems. I imagine fleeters will get to blast an OP fleet.

 

[Akio Kahoshi]

I need more solid objective ideas. Something I can copy and paste and send to OP. Lots of ideas floating about, but they need to be converted into an actual written objective.

 

[Moira Skaldi]

Possible objective:

TGE has to capture a high-ranking OP NPC official, such as a Planetary Governor, both to maintain the illusion of normalcy by making him collaborate and to later use him for PR by claiming that he appealed to the Empire for aid.

What OP wants to do is up to them. However, if one side kills the official it will lose the point (if OP were to hypothetically decide on asset denial by terminating him, TGE could replace him and still exploit it PR-wise since OP definitely does not look stable then).

 

[Akio Kahoshi]

I like it. That's one for each side with mine. One more for each side would be sufficient I think.

With respect to the work that's been done, Moira hit the nail on the head when she said that virtually all invasions become PVP slugfests. In my opinion, a centralized group with involved leaders (ie, TGE) probably has an advantage in an objective-less PVP 'brawl' over some arbitrary key strategic point.

 

[Akio Kahoshi]

That's actually one reason I set up the invasion like I did, small skirmishes that can be 1v1 battles.

 

[Rexus Drath]

When is this going down?

SoonTM

As far as objectives, I like the idea of racing for control of the local holonet hub. Imperials want to secure it to lockdown their stranglehold on communications, OP wants it to find a way to boost the signal past the jamming the fleet has put in place.

 

[Ryan Slade]

I will definitely be there. As for what I will be doing, I know not.

 

[Akio Kahoshi]

Change in plans, we're invading the Sith planet of Liana, taking the shipyard, and claiming anything else we find there as ours. The OP invasion is still planned, but with the Sith Empire crumbling this might be our last chance to reach out and hit them.

 

[Rexus Drath]

Will be there then as one of my Czars and Rex I need to kill one off anyway

 

[Moira Skaldi]

I shall be there either as Moira or Siobhan. Well, the latter does need to do some actual work for a change.
