Go Xan, land 2/3 fakes out of protection and play Sim-Tarion the rest of the round like I do?
**** if I know what the answer is, but stop trying to re-invent the wheel on stats.
Everyone just go Cath and problem sovled...r2 Theives and Pirates...r3 Ghost/Warfrig/Cargoship...numbers win, EOD. At that point, stats are "balanced", and the "Alliance" or "block" issue is all that remains.
Play a round like that, then complain about stats. Or "politics". Or Tag size.
