You still question the pro-Gallia bias here? For whatever tasteless reason, it was obviously decided all this was going to happen years ago. I'm not sure what held them back honestly. i'm not sure why they didnt do Leeds, were they afraid of player reaction? Why? Everything with Gallia is bulldozed through so they might as well just end it, give the end result and fill us in with an infocard as usual. But i think the leadership here is INSANE for having a game like this, and not wanting to do anything with it, just to protect their personal choice. Just think of all the activity that would have been needed to justify placing all those lanes, docking rings, jumpgates, and how it could have been something to fight over. Only place I ever heard of that removes your ability to counter an established enemy force because the staff can't possibly tolerate them losing. In my case, its the lack of commensurate events or in game activity (leading to fixed story) that is the worst part. I always could have handled Gallia winning, if they had a faction siege every base in Bretonia and get past the battles that ensued around them all. All this fixed storyline is doing is keeping people afraid to do what they'd actually like to be doing, because they fear the devs and player cliques that unquestionably side with them.
