This is just something I came up with today. We take our forces and split them up into two groups. One has Jim and Ravage in it, as well as one of the ships, probably you, Chan. The other has the rest of us.
Basically, the idea is to have the Zaku MPSET scatter enough particles to trick Blex into thinking the Dren fleet is attacking and have Ravage act as sort of a spotter for the ship. (Basically, the gunners on the bridge would look to see where he's firing and do the same or something) Additionally, two MS supports would be with this group to compensate.
Meanwhile, the rest of us blindside the fleet from behind or below or from the sides. If Blex is smart, he'll have kept some MS behind, but at the same time will have sent some to fight off what he thinks to be the Dren Fleet, or part of it. In any case, if this works, we'll have split the fleet's attention between two seperate forces, allowing our superior number of mobile suits to overwhelm the fleet.
I'm posting it here first to get some input from the rest of the officers before I open the floor to the others. Ground pounders, feel free to chip in with ideas too. Every opinion is welcome, especially since I know we have some good planners here.

One thing I'll like to see is a tactical strike on the STS-14 (holds 10x GM-E) from the Braw-Bro. In my imagination, this will be our opening move followed by an all-out assault.
We might as well use this thread to start planning to attack the 1st Experimental Disco Fleet. They just put some GMs and Balls onto the Kira Yamato and are moving it up into Earth Orbit.
It is my opinion that they are going to finish off the Earth Orbital patrols, then if they are confident enough, attack the ZMF Resupply Fleet on its way up. This gives us maybe a week or more if they decide to go to Luna II/Green Noah to repair. Less time if they avoid targets and repair for their ships.

Any suggestions on how we'll make Disco dead (again)?
Though the obvious targets for elimination are the Kira Yamato and the Shinji Ikari. The Kira especially since it could cause trouble for the TAF if they ever send it earthside again. But if we attack it, chances are good that the AA coverage is weak on the underside of most, if not all, ships.
But we really can't afford to let them keep grinding the orbital patrols since that cuts into our side RP. I'm inclined to go after them before Blex to ensure that they don't get ahead of us in VP and bleed our side RP dry.

The problem, as I mention in the other planning thread, is that they have three fighting ships to our two. As of right now, our VPs are fairly even. Destroying Blex at +2DE will attract their attention towards us. Also, taking Texas Colony may have alarmed them already.
We can try our original strategy with the EFSF Resupply Fleet: Braw Bro lying in wait below and attack them when they try to engage our ships. Except this time we'll use Jim's Zaku I MPSET to hide him and a support service of Zaku II Fs to keep missiles away.

 Alot of this came from Frenzy's idea but I think it's a good time to start planning this.

An alternative positive outcome could also be simply doing enough damage to force the Blex Fleet to disband.

I think that you can fire missiles to do that, but make sure you do it really early so Blex doesn't catch on.

The idea is that I would add the dummy balloons to the big Minovsky Particle storm around my ship and the Pazock. It will also help out the Pazock if random fire heads in its direction.
Good thing PC ships with missile launchers have dummy balloon missiles.

Okay, so we may not have Ravage around to help us attack Blex Fleet on Monday... A little more riskier for me since we don't have a real Magellan smasher (though 10 Zaku II Fs are pretty convincing).
