Re: New war plan on the House Davion Thread

One of the things we operate on is a "Made To Order" contract system.
Meaning, if you don't see a posted contract that you like. You can contact a staff member, and work out what you'd like to be doing, we can create that contract and post it.
Sometimes that just means the general essence of an idea or concept. Sometimes MUCO's have sent me the entire contract, word-for-word, what they want. If it doesn't raise any red flags, we usually run with it. It has to go through at least 2 staff members before the contract goes live and can be bid on.
There's absolutely room to play in the "liberation of Terra" department. But based on our staff planning, I recommend you see that as a long term goal. There's no great march into the FWL's "Duchy of Terra" planned in the near future. The FWL has pushed outward and the lines have solidified a bit. The mobile war has ground to a halt. All parties have become frustrated by the lack of progress on the front line. What we're in now is an era of heavy raiding in that war. Attacks on factories, supply lines and so on. Even deep strikes way behind the front lines with large armies, like the raid on Irian (see the House Marik news forum). So that's an angle you could work with. Weakening the enemy.
We have toted the IC fact that there's resistance out there. People on the Terran worlds fighting back. That's another angle you could work with.
All the contracts toward this goal are going to be Great House as an employer, or ComStar. A few might be nobility (opportunity here to pick up an NPC benefactor of some sort, like a Terran expatriate. His Charlie to your Angels if you will).
In terms of actively fighting the FWL, the Lyrans and Combine are the most active. The Capellans have been forced to focus on defense. Davion is facing CSoT more than they are the FWL, and seeing opportunity to strike at vulnerable Capellans. So the Lyrans, Combine and ComStar are really the big merc employers for efforts against the FWL.
