Subject: [GZG] Update on the Midgard Herding 2194
_______________________________________________ Gzg-l mailing list Gzg-l@lists.csua.berkeley.edu http://lists.csua.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gzg-lthis is a follow-up to the listing placed here http://www.warpfish.com/jhan/ft/gzgpedia/nationsm2z/nation-mih.shtml Looking for feedback, before it submits to being formally updated. Update on the Midgard Herding. * Political Power: 3 * Military Power: 5 * Economic Power: 5 * Size: 4 During the past 10 years the Midgrad Herding attempt to have both a Strong Military and a Strong Economy has broken both sides of the plan. Given the current crisis with the Kraâvak, it has caused the Economy to slow down. In turn the ecomony slowing down has limited the Fleet upgrading ships as well as replacement has also slowed down, so older ships are being kept in service longer then planned for. Yet the fleet still maintains what it has at the current highest readiness state. The pride of the Fleet is the first of the new Viking class Heavy Battleship which entered service in 2192. Parts of the Midgard Herding Fleet has taken part in UN actions against the Kraâvak. Including 1 encounter where a Mjornir Heavy Cruiser MHN Oalf Haraldsson managed to take down 2 Koâtek Strike Cruisers with limited return damage. Most times they have try to avoid being placed in with FSE forces, do to â issuesâ between the two states. And while the FSC âfreebootersâ have made some raids within the Midgard Herding, increasing the tension between the 2 minor powers. So far there have been no open declared war, but there have been a few cases where shots have been exchanged in Neutral Space. The Mining operation in the LTT 11262 Star System is still being worked and is protected by a small fleet to guard against raiders. The outpost in the BD-05'642 Star System has only had some limited growth, but was was hard hit in a raid by now what is beleived to be Phalons forces.
