Re: The Golden Host

I must stress that all that follows assumes that Zeus’s praetorian unit keeps to its current pattern of slow, open, unconcealed travel.  There is no reason for them to do so.

Nonetheless, you asked for the odds on various methods of intervention, and we’ve run the numbers, with SPARTACUS backup.

*********************************************************************************

The enemy are estimated at a thousand Ultrahuman combatants, with approximately two thirds of them rated at high Rank 2’s, and the remainder, we must assume, able to function as Rank 3 Ultrahuman combatants.

We have gamed out the following scenarios.  The confidence measures are included in the attached, report, but suffice to say they are low, and stacked against us.  The reality is likely considerably worse than these estimates, owing to our lack of knowledge as far as Pantheon military assets is concerned.

Details are attached, but I’ve taken the liberty of summarizing outcomes into a number, between one and a hundred.  Anything above 80 would be an acceptable military operation.

All scenarios assume full drone backup.

1: Kinetic Intervention by several thousand human personnel : 1

2: Covert Kinetic Intervention by several dozen human personnel : 5

3: Kinetic Intervention by several thousand Ultrahuman personnel : 15

4: Covert Kinetic Intervention by several dozen Ultrahuman personnel : 10

5: Kinetic Intervention by the Gauntlet. : 15

6: Covert Kinetic Intervention by the Gauntlet : 35

7: Kinetic Intervention by human, Ultrahuman and Gauntlet forces. : 25

8: Covert Kinetic Intervention by Gauntlet, Ultrahuman and Human forces, assuming total surprise achieved. : 40

10: Strategic intervention by fission weaponry. 5

11: Strategic intervention by full suite of Classified weaponry. 8

Summary:

No unit or combination of units, no assets at our disposal, so far as this board is aware, have any likelihood of defeating this Pantheon deployment.  I urge you to consult with the intelligence services, with technical experts, and with any other individuals you believe have the potential for a game changing assertion..

*********************************************************************************

Absent any unknown factors, or a stroke of fortune never before seen within human memory, our Union will be forced to surrender before the year’s end.

It has been an honor.
