Another thing to consider is the fact that any tech captured could be used by Amrika and others in the way of the Nids to bribe the other local chaos polities to gain their help like Turoq did meaning the tech could spread further than we realize. This doesn't seem that unlikely since again Turoq did it and the chaos planets in their path would likely realize how screwed they would be if they didn't get any more help.
Turoq is a bad example. Literally had a paragon trait that made him less chaos minded.
Not that bad an example considering it's been noted by Durin himself that Chaos is a lot more willing to work together if their backs are pushed against the wall and considering how screwed every single chaos aligned planet in the path of the Nids are I expect a lot of desperation.
This is really what makes giving them more tech right now useless. The time it takes to implement new tech is dependent on the amount of new tech. No one gets a static time implement all new tech action. They're going to be decades implementing our T1 and T2 techs alone. Giving them T3 and T4 techs on top of that doesn't mean they get them all implemented in the same time.
Kind of annoyed that people seem to be completely ignoring the fact it would take the Dragon's Nest decades just to implement the lower tiers by the time the Nids get here anyway at which point we could have spent that time rooting out spies before they were ready to implement the next level. Giving them the tech now just shoots ourselves in the foot long term.

Your opponent must subtract 1 from any hit rolls made for INFANTRY units that have suffered any hits from this weapon until the end of the turn |
Everything is politics. Also never underestimate humans ability to push something stupid through when things are bad.
Considering that it is my plan and you are complaining about people not reading things is kind of ironic to me
As the argument in the thread shows, there are perfectly legitimate reasons to vote 1, not just "let's not simply give away tech".
Meant the plan that he makes and votes for. Because looking at the posts after he posted a lot more people started voting for said plan.
To chime in on this, I am quite literally the person Enjou was talking about. I went to bed, woke up read the arguments decided I liked option 2 better, voted and went back to bed again, because the light burns mine troglodyte eyes.
Again, you seem to be underestimaing how difficult it would be to immediately gather all the spies considering that freaking Ridcully stated that the area was way too big for him to search for thousands of spies and he needed to focus on just the ones who were the most likely to cause the most damage and doubt we got all of them. There were also a number of other flaws pointed out. Your plan is literally give them a lot of tech without considering the issues it could lead to down the line.
My issue is not with you but bandwagoning in general when people start pointing out flaws in a plan that gets a lot of votes from someone that tends to get bandwagoned. What's really annoying though is when it seems like people tend to ignore other people's points since they don't add their reasoning for voting for a plan that a lot of people are criticising and pointing out flaws to.
Aye, but as he said the ring leaders and most highly placed people have already been eliminated, the Inquisition and their own internal forces are ferreting out people as fast as they can and we're going to have to do it eventually, starting now when the situation can be described as "o ****" doesn't seem unreasonable.
I am not obligated to write out my reasoning for every (albeit few) votes I give, to say nothing of the fact that other people frequently give the rational in various forms.
