But neutral powers don't have to deal with losses, and can do some peaceful expansion of unoccupied systems as well over this time...

They wont fall behind like a third-world nation, but they wont stay on par with the victors in the war. The Neutrals will be powerful, but nowhere near the most powerful.

A newly colonized unoccupied system requires effort to be made productive, and even then, they'll be far less productive than a developed system which has just been annexed. Which German gains in the period of 1870-1914 do you think were more useful: German East Africa or Alsace-Lorraine?

No. But it's not like they're going to suddenly expand and advance much faster than far more aggressive powers.

Darksider, kindly explain why your navy's not in your OOB. Or I intend to tell you that you can't attack us with nothing.

Right now our people are looking at the Ousters and saying 'We know the pain' and then we're looking at you trying to protect the guilty party and saying, 'Those absolute bastards! That's as bad as what the Arcanists did, if not worse!'
That's one of the reasons why were going into this, not to mention the Alliance's history of having shady charecters that seemed to go out of their way to piss off Monacora (well, to be granted it was just two nations but still) and you can understand why were doing this.

He did what? Oh, for fuck's sake... Darksider, you will run (not walk) to the relevant thread and post your fleet Order of Battle before you do anything else in the game.

it's larger than that though, I went through two major fleet build-ups

I'll draw up a comprehensive fleet-based OOB as quick as I can

Darksider, prepare to be short one battle fleet. Should have read Frigid's defense setup in his OOB. :twisted:

So Darksider, tell me, at what point did you stop and construct an early warning net reporting to you around the system? And damn, that's some fast organization for the jump to lightspeed. Your entire fleet cleared the system in a few minutes with enough time to spare so that the UP reinforcements never even made contact? Not to get into calling shots and calling the destruction of a large battle station...

Alright, i'll edit the jump to lightspeed, but the battlestation is a forgone conclusion.

It's taking fire from my entire fleet. There's no way it can hold out for more than a few minutes.

By the way, Darksider, what is your AIM SN? Because you never seem to answer the one you have listed in your profile.

But, I never answer it.

all I ever get Im's from are a bunch of porn bots, so you'll have to tell me whatever AIM SN you go by so I don't click no

Great. Now why couldn't I do that when Bugsby was coming after me? He didn't even have interdictors.

I was already in position to run when you showed up, and I wasn't in the middle of extracting troops from a planet.

And I had four interdictors in the system. You shouldn't have been able to jump. And I have your last known trajectory, so don't tell me what I do and do not know about which way you were going. And somehow you get to call hits and destruction on my ships, yet yours just merrily shoot down the vast majority of an entire fleet's worth of missiles, dictate my targeting to ships that the remaining ones can't effectively damage, and escape without a scratch. You damned powergamer.
