i understand the reluctance to believe that there are people who have $1.7B defended by 300k turrets, but there are
not as many as there used to be
but if you hit someone while you are fully teched and they have $1.7B you get $100M plus food plus tech plus land
that buys a lot of jets, gas and $1000 tech

threads about pillage attacks go back long before i found EE
detmer, w, gregg and a host of others have all written in favor of such attacks
