Who will have the 'surprise'
Ok people, time to vote for the most hated faction on Chiron.
I'll do my best to give them a nasty surprise 
The plan is to attack with 2 transports full of marines and probes, a major city, perhaps even a capital if possible of the Drones or Hive.
I include in this poll as well if we continue to gather as much energy as possible or start a researching again full speed. It takes 5 or so turns to finish a tech if we go full lab output.

I favor sending a transport with 4 Probe Teams through the Sea of Indesision to one of captured Uni Bases and infiltrating the Drones first, then stealing as many Drone Tecs as we Can, then infiltrating the Hive if we have anything left and stealing tecs from them as well. We might just get the Citizens Defense Force!! 
On the other side of the planet we should send all the troops that beat up PEACE in an Amphibius attack againts the Hive, but not on the obvious New Moscow target, sail further north for a turn or 2 and attack a base thats likly to be unguarded like HongHu KongHu. Infiltration will help imensly in that effort if we can get at a base the Hive took in Uni territory.
We should stike to Credits as we arn't likly to discover any realy usefull tecs at this point, ware as the 1200 Credits we could have instead are much better for us right now.

Yes, Impaler. That's a good plan. My only worry is pacification drones if we stay FM and sail with 10 combat units out our territory. Perhaps a change to Planned when the task force leaves our territory?

No probes don't count, the transport perhaps?
But I did say combat units as well, and those will cause riots.

Drones should be easier to Probe at this point as we know they have Uni bases we can get at.
That said who ever Captures Cairns would also be easy to Probe, by the time we get the Probes up their that base will probly have fallen.
As for a military strike the Drones are a complete unknown. And our last inteligence on the Hive is rather out of date now. We dont know how much in the way of defensive military they built. I would suspect their are 2-3 Plasma Garrisons in their Coastal Bases (which arnt very many) their inland bases probly only scout patrols and aircraft.

I just didn't scroll up that far when doing my reply.
I'm for whatever hurts them the most. I would be reluctant to give AI tech that the Drones/Hive don't yet have, but if that is offset by extra units of ours churned out to bring some ass-whipping to the Hive...

Whoops, didn't vote. Frankly the game seems dead to me, although I am still watching, although I'm not sure what I'm waiting for.
