Quote:Would there be interest in a revision to the scenario, where instead of the USA/CSA from TL-191 getting transported to Fenspace the whole TL-191 Earth gets transported to Fenspace? I ask because I'm having trouble figuring out where to take the plot that doesn't have "get upstaged by the 'Danelaw powers" butt in at some point.Swapping Fen|USA and TL-191|USA+CSA was almost enough for Noah to implement Contingency Plan #3. Swapping out the entire planet would convince Noah that the Sol system wasn't a safe place for Helen to live in anymore, and he would implement Contingency Plan #3, modified to include any refugees who want to come along and not include any Stellvians who wanted to stay and help (including Yayoi and Kagome). He'd drop a line of interwave relay boosters between Sol and (spoiler) for future use, so he wouldn't be completely out of the loop... but odds are Noah wouldn't be very popular with the Fen who stayed behind to fight.
Besides, what's wrong with forming a Fen/'Dane alliance against the TL-191 folks? While most of the military power would come from the 'Danes, most of the intelligence regarding the opposition sits inside the brains of the Fen. (Besides, it isn't as if this is "real" Fenspace, after all...)
