GenCon 2023 Diorama Discussion

Nope. Not only are none of those League worlds on either EA map (they're all held by the Wolf Empire), but none of them are between the Capellans and New Earth (they're off to the side). The Cappies can make a jump right from Procyon, Sirius or even Liberty/Carver V to New Earth, as all of them are in CapCon hands and well within JumpShip range.

You're right. The map had made me think that the Capellans were basically cut of from that "Empire stretch" Though I wonder if the Capellans also decided to capture more then just New Earth. After all all those worlds are basically free real estate at this point despite the Empire flag flying over them.

In between the empire and terra, we don’t know the June 3152 owners of:

Thorin
Rigil Kentaurus
New Earth
Sirius
Ghara

Any of these are fair game to be held by Capellans, Wolves, or other by June 3152

EA map shows the Empire holding
Lipton
Zavijava
Xi Ursae
Graham.

So if the Capellans did drive a wedge, it isn’t a large one

Sirius was taken by the Capellans in February 3151. They also took Caph in March of that year, which indicates to me that you were right before and they are indeed trying to encircle Terra.

Alaric fiddles until Snow Ravens and Ghost Bears come to bail him out lol  ?

I sort of figure the opposite. Alaric won’t be cruel (by clan standards), crazy, or just incompetent. Since Alaric has seen success by leading from the front. I think if he’s set up for a big failure, it’ll be because he was too hands on instead of stepping away from the front lines

Caph had Jade Falcons on it I  December 3152 (same month as the diorama) per the fiction in the AS Box set.

Doesn't mean they own it, just that they're on it.

If said Ghost Bears will be free at that point because they just started a war with the Combine. And if Yori needs something right now it's someone to beat with a very heavy stick to distract from the fact she (or rather her former Gunji no Kanrei) lost New Avalon and most of their Fedsuns conquests. And lo and behold along come the Bears the only enemy the Combine could never defeat so far. If Yori could break that curse she might be counted as "the best coordinator of all times"

On another note by 3152 is the remaining wall down at that point? Or running on it's last legs? From what I remember is that Stone told Alaric that the wall has bascially 1 or 2 years left before it's resources run out. If they now fight against the Capellans they might use the same tactic the Republic used: raids against enemies to keep them disorghanized on the borders. Or in this case saving memebrs of a resurrected Clan

I believe it’s “less than a year” unless Alaric wants to ruin the economy in the area or destroy his own Jumpships while being cut off from his industrial base.
