Also, well, we should start working out a plan for confronting Tianem.

Unlike the other fleets we mauled (Blex, Wyatt, and the EFSF Resupply Fleet), we can't take out Tianem by sheer number of ships. Ive been also criticized for "planning like an old fashion EFSF officer".

So for Tianem, I'm thinking of three things:

1) Using my logistics spec to produce four complete dummy balloon reproductions of the Zeon Expeditionary Force. We will then scatter Minovsky Particles at maximum density and send a dummy fleet to attack Tianem Fleet from the front, above, below, and the right. Our real ZEF will attack from the left. Hopefully this will allow us to get SUPER close to Tianem before he finds out.

2) This one is more traditional MS warfare. Our MS split up into assault groups and charge at Tianem Fleet while the ZEF ships provide covering fire. Everyone is on the move here with each player in charge with a squad of MS. Hopefully this will overwhelm the EFSF ships so they will focus on anti-MS long enough for our ships to move in and finish the job.

3) This one is a combination of #1 or #2 but send in a massive swarm of dummy balloons with our ships/MS mixed and dispersed among them. This way we can maximize confusion until we are literally on the Tianem Fleet.

We can easily out number them in terms of MS, and we need to make the most of that.

They "might" patrol against us but so long as one of us Overwatchs as we move back into +2DE, we should be fine. Frenzy, can you take care of that?
