Yah, right - you're forgetting about my Starbase with at least 2 Meteor Control points! I think you'll need more than 2 Marza's... [e digicons]:hrmph:[/e]
@Mippy: Tell me how many ships you lose with that strategy - can you do it without losing a single ship? Any race can perform the first part where the defending ships are destroyed without losing any ships if you bring in an appropriate fleet and it is not too late in the game.

Wow. I hadn't realized that they had beefed up the Pirates so much - I now realize what you all are saying. I guess, with respect to the Pirates, is what should their role in Diplomacy be?
