Optimally. We could do just 4, but 6 is better.

May I tag a couple players?

A surprise to be sure...

Perhaps just make the rule 400 points of ships max, and any amount of fighters.

That would lead to 1000+ point fleets of fighters protecting planets while the ships go and conquer.

I shall change the rules to reflect the restriction of 400 and 100, since we have a majority agreement on that.

Naturally.

I meant up to 500 max. So you could have 400 of fighters and 100 of ships.

Ah, OK. So 400/100, or 0/500 as a maximum? I think that that is reasonable, only I want there to always be a ship in the garrison, since it is not thematic to leave the defence force entirely to fighters. I will make it 400/400 caps, as that way if you want the full 500 you are forced to have both.

@Npmartian @Ling27 @LordCola

I'm under the impression you are all Clone Wars fans. Would any of you be interested in joining us?

@GhostofNobodyInParticular I’m happy that squadrons will be required but I urge you to find a way to ensure that they are not just the automatic casualties - it can be tempting as GM to just take squads before damaging or destroying ships.

Whats happening? Im down for it causr I heard Clone Wars... just need to read.

I would be down for either faction. This sounds like great game of risk! I've been wanting to do something like this for a while.

Casualties are determined randomly.

Great! Glad to have you on board! You'll be CIS, as Forty is Republic. That makes our minimum of 3 a side to start, however I'll give it another day to see if anybody else wants in.

@The Jabbawookie I vote not myself as GA of the CIS.

Welcome to the revolution!

I'm happy to take the role, though I'll be traveling a bit. My vote goes for @LTD , unless he doesn't want it.
