An actual battle that influences politics. Or perhaps a friendly wargame between powers...
Just a total dry run. I don't want anyone to have to expose the capabilities of newer ships so it is a simple Fed vs Klingon scenario. Just need one more person to issue orders.

The whole thing is designed to be done in 5-7 rounds so it moves quickly within the broader framework of things.

Deep should play as the Klingons, obviously. That way, they both get a chance to use their own ship types in battle without risk.

FWIW the Klingon's are pretty much a stand in for the Romulans in that they both rely to a great degree on beam weapons rather than torpedoes. No one else it quite like the Breen. I think your battle tactics should almost be the exact opposite of the Klingons and Romulans.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

We can run both. You both have the data so we will just run two at once for testing.

Okay with me. Whenever you're ready just make the "Battle Thread" and we'll get going.

I will send you both the map in a few to place your units. Still need a list of how you want to split them up Deep. You can PM me that.
