You want to honestly know my prediction for this RP?
Okay, here's how it breaks down:
If combined, the bugs may stand a chance against Balatu OR Ad, but if both come for them at once, they are stuffed. Not too many preds in this either, so Alpha Draconis has the weight of numbers, cuz I am betting that Vevlaa and Fletcher'll join as well, not to mention Peterson and the rest. That's a lot of marines.
Bugs have the advantage when it comes to setting. Air vents and all the like give them awesome ambush capabilities, the other teams will have to watch thier trackers to stay safe.
A big problem for the bugs is that ttoo often they ignore tactics. If they can co-ordniate a basic force together and some tactics, they may just overcome Alpha Draconis's strength in numbers and win.
However, Balatu has the advantage of experience. With Kidd and Myself gone, AD is fresh out of vets, and the bugs have lost Dave, Crow and all the others. If the Balatu vets join, things might get pretty ugly.
If you ask me, the sides are balanced. Balatu has experience, AD has numbers and bugs have the terrain.
This one will hinge on the independents.
For example: Kidd. If he joins the forces of Alpha Draconis, then the other teams are in the shit. Same goes if I decide to help out, though they'll more likely than not shoot me on sight.
The main threat is if the independants form thier own side in this conflict. That will seriously shake things up.
My suggestion to all sides: Get your tactics together, and TRY AND GET AS MANY INDEPENDENTS AS YOU CAN ON YOUR SIDE!
And as for why I left Alpha Draconis.
To be honest, it was because I felt betrayed. Even though its been a bumpy ride, I've stuck with AD for the better part of 3 years and I've done my best to make them into the best clan I could. When Peterson gets put in charge, I take a drop straight from co-Sub to private.
I think anyone'd feel insulted, yes? Especially given the effort I've put into AD. And as for when I left last time with Peterson, I didn't. He kicked me out. One can imagine that I hold a grudge, yes?
SO:
If the Xenomorphs need assistance with organizing thier troops and tactics, I am willing to assist them in this. I will not help them in the RP itself of course, as I am human to the bone, but I will help them prepare for it.
