Bretonia have barely any capital shp to fight with inRP, Colonials are not that big and the conflict with GMG is not an open war rather the occasional skirmish. Is Kusari capable to handle that? I think so, pretty much sure that it is.
If Kusari was not able to handle it, they would be breaking under the pressure already. Doesn't seem like they are power wise, but there are other forces at work that will ensure a paradigm shift in Kusari anyway come the next mod version.
Kusari's ability to handle its present fronts is not disputed here. It's just that, some fronts are "handled better" than others. The Bretonian front is for example handled in a way that would give Kusari the ability to launch a ground assault on Leeds in the next few ingame months or so, would it not be for the surprise GRN attack that will come. The GMG situation is not even a fighting front, it's more shaking fists at each other. This is reflected both ingame and in forum RP. They don't need forces to really cover that, so they could easily employ just a paltry force to keep the system in check, especially since the GMG carry on protecting it from the Outcasts. Hokkaido is a system however that would need complete lock down, sweeping patrols and a heavy navy presence around all transports in order to be kept relatively in check. According to the lore this is not happening, so the only conclusion is that's one of the places that are slightly suffering due to Kusari's commitment on the Bretonian front.
