Here's to hoping for a fair and challenging FP event for both sides.

Have it so that only IS side can have mercs and you might make it an even contest.

Very true, since in the lore Clanners hated Mercs.

Why not...anything like this would be welcome

I saw Thomas Marik and I stopped actually reading, but, I totally support giving this game flavor!

FP? Nice, I can skip that.

[The Zohan]

Anything FP related does sound unfun to me so theres that. I appreciate the time and effort you (OP) put into this though.

I broke contract 2 days ago (before event was discovered) so I will play clan side (scouting if that is sufficient). I only play on a side until I'm bored though, so IS for no more than 3 months or so and keep rotating.

For the IS folks who fear a thrashing even with a 45 ton drop deck advantage, how much do you think is needed to make it fair? 60? 100?

IMHO its not about tonnage its about effective fire power

in its most simplistic application we would have

effective = heat (less is better)
fire power = alpha number (higher is better)

from these one would generate a combat effectiveness rating for each strike team

then the game maker would match the drops based on these
that would leave player skill/tactics as more of a deciding factor during drops
