Invasion Logistics (Dzarrgh invasion of Corridor)[edit]

Curiously, the Dzarrgh Federate has managed to take over the Corridor sector, with hundreds of ships - most of which are only jump-2 capable. However, the federate has a J3 rift between the Coreward worlds and the Corridor. There is no way that they can support such an influx without passage through the Windhorn Pact of Two and United Followers of Augurgh, or the Irrgh Manifest. Anyone got any ideas regarding the politics that allowed these units through these routes? Is the split of the Corridor sub-sector a side effect of such an agreement?

Invasion Logistics (Virus invasion of the Federate)[edit]

Similarly, the J3 gulf means that a Virus invasion from Corridor flowing into the Coreward parts of the Federate was probably different to the strains that invaded the Rimward parts. It suggests that the Virus flowed through the Irrgh Manifest in 1137-1140; entered the Dzarrgh holdings in Corridor from Coreward and met the virus having come from the rimward routes through Corridor around Overlook. This seems supported by the early strikes (rimward route) in Khouth in 1137/1138/1139 and the later group in 1140 on the Provence border. It also suggests that the central worlds of the Federate itself (e.g the capital) probably survived into 1141/2/3). Is this a working hypothesis? BackworldTraveller (talk) 14:41, 13 May 2020 (EDT)
