As if the Republic even means anything. I can make up worlds too. Slimy's profile mentions that its species has ended innumerable civilisations and has always existed. Can you guess how, and whether or not, the octillions of resulting horrors have continued to thrive? Technically I don't even need to give Higan's world the dignity of a chance to combat a gradual invasion. But, all that does not matter in the least. It's just a pissing contest. Literally anyone can simply draw up a stickman and say, "This fucker is all powerful, end of story."

Cautious style my ass. Slimy has no other means to get Higan aside from waiting him out. It's easy to point an accusing little finger from within the safety of an impregnable iron hull fitted with bunker busters. I tried being nice and using skill, but in the end you simply have a character that mine can't beat by traditional means. That was to be expected, but I wanted to give it a try. Nope, the mech totally no-sold Slimy. Well, now yours can't beat mine because it has countered Hogan's unstoppable armor with its unstoppable stalking. 

I can play the same cards as you. I got the same deck.

So, when I start pissing too, you cry foul. When I start complaining OOC, you pitch a fit. Poor me, suffering so when someone gives me a taste of my own medicine. Go eat a monkey.
