Some stuff from AF intercepts that comes through
« on: July 12, 2004, 02:02:28 pm »
1. Absolute Fed conviction they were going to win

2. They were going to win and didn't want it to be a win over just the minnows  Kzin/Lyrans, they wanted to take out a major player too.

3. When faced with "cheese" MDC fleets, the response was all we need is 2 pilots to "clean them up"

4. Morale was skyhigh despite reverses

5. If bases and planets were lost, they could be recovered, no biggy they were gonna win ;)

6. We really want to be killing Klinks and Rommies, but will deal with minor irritants first

7. We could just go for 600 econ, but hell lets do the two HW thing.

8. spotting strategic choke points, supply difficulties, others strategies and getting them mostly right.

9. Utter confidence in ultimate victory :)

10. Lets make treaties then break 'em, very "real politik"

Loved Slugs maps, hellish difficult to put together accurately as you had to take around 8 screenies to do it then paste em all together accurately.

Did I mention the Feds were gonna win, that's a given  ;D ;D ;D ;D

There was no way the Feds could lose.  All they had to do was unleash the Blue Plague!

I thank God I grew up in an age when a kid could still play with things that could put his eye out.

After reading your intercepted messages, this was the point that struck home most strongly with me.  They didn't want a "cheap" win over two underpopulated races; they wanted to take on the races they saw as contenders.

That speaks rather well of the Fed leadership.
