It could be the rachini halted a citadel offensiveI'm alarmed by the Citadel admiral's exact words: "Rachni halted major offensive". Not "we beat back Rachni's major offensive".
wouldn't this be the default option?[X] Go. Pull the 3rd out. [Assault the Nubian Expanse and attempt to clear a path for the 3rd RWF.]
-[X] Go with Raiding doctrine; Namal is to insert Beshkar and 1st Raiding fleet into Nubian Expanse. Subsequently 1st battle fleet is to hold and fortify the relay (bring the stations stationed at that Relay along), and the 1st Raiding fleet is to strike high-value targets.
Was just about to ask the same. It sounded very suspicious.
Yes.
So it's genuineOh, look, you found what was going on behind the curtain. Y'know, what with me rolling that 93 and everything.
I'm going out on a limb here, but judging from the fact you said 'three clusters they cut off', I think you might have mistaken Hades Gamma for Hades Nexus. Hades Gamma is next to Attican Beta and is not involved in this. Hades Nexus is next to the Expanse, and if the three relevant systems are taken (Expanse, Hades Nexus and Phoenix Massing), then the number of fronts is not increased. It's actually decreased in a certain sense.They are assaulting the Hades Nexus so I assumed that they wanted to meet up in the Nexus.
Having reread the wording it looks like they are talking about punching through the Nexus and grouping up with us to hit the Expanse which honestly dosen't make sense to me.
Shouldn't they be planning to clear out the three clusters they cut off? Unless they think they're not worth their time and would prefer to hit the systems connected to the main force of the rachni or know about the Quarians.
As we just got a snap-shot of where their ships are and they had zero advanced warring that we would be doing this… yes. We are very sure.
It's interesting that Terminus Joint Fleets are trying to break through to the Hades Nexus.This is President Banari Su'val of Omega, sitting Joint Commander of the Terminus Joint Fleets. As of three weeks ago, we began an offensive with the aim of punching through to to the Hades Nexus. If Virmirean forces are in position to strike at the Nubian Expanse, we might be able to link up."
