For future: I think that every debate in this room should end with the poll (with the exception of this one, becuase it was already polled).

Suggestion (after DBTS' recent unit requests):

Our military should place more emphasis on individual unit quality than overall numbers.

Or, is it a good idea to have best-1-1 units defended by 1-best-1 units, or should we have best-best-1 units, etc?

For our offensive forces, before we gain air control, I'd only to build best-1-2s to attack bases with speed and surprise, to make sure the defenders can't attack us before we attack them, and send some 1-best-1s along to defend the newly captured bases.

Wouldn't it be a good idea to bring along some 1-best-2s as well, to accompany the rovers in case they got surprised?

Well first of all we need to define what the mistakes of old Earth are, since until we have something concrete to work with its really a moot point.

Balance in this regard is crucial, a well trained advanced military force can withstand the assault of large numbers, but such a force would most likely be small in number. We should focus on units 1-best-1 for defense, since from the looks of it, the sentiment in our faction is that we do not want war, but we do need to be prepared to defend ourselves.

Build 1 best 1 for defense in our core homeland and some 1 best 2 for defense at the front line that can then accompany our rovers when the time comes to attack

I think when available, we should have a 1-best+t-1 (ECM and trance) and a 1-t-1 (AAA and trance) in each vulnerable base. This guards against all forms of enemy attack, and against worm rape. Having a couple of 1-best+t-2 for defending attack units, and a few Best-Best-Best, air to air flying needlejets for airial support is also usuful IMO.

So, I believe we can add the manufacture of banned equipment and conspiracy to violate the UN Charter to the list of charges.

Uh, you mean we're not supposed to have stuff like that?

Oh, but of course you realize that "nervestaplers, X-Gas and portable Mini-Busters" is just code for "Compassionate, safe, non-lethal riot gear"?

Do we have to come and play here? Its nice and warm over at the CCCP. I have my browser set to open with that page.

Help I'm being repressed (remembers something from above and buys a gas mask)

OK - now I'm safe from the X-Gas, and I've been nerve stapled so many times its lost its effectivness. I just have to worry about the mini-busters
