Re: Planetary Invasion/Defense

as i said, one of those 'facts' must change...one possibility would be that there was a fight for the orbitals, and both fleets where seriously mauled, so the logieri troop transports are just fine but the entire escort needs a shipyard, badly....and there ain't one available right here... bingo, no...
