Fiction:The Lareth Plan

The Lareth Plan is an extremely detailed plan for the likely scenario that The Scions of Lareth and other rebel groups were to link up with numerous Montalette and Capague nations and attempt to bring and end to the Shillite Empire. The plan was written by a coalition of military,economic,and political experts, the plan is supposed to be modular enough to be easily adapted while being easy to follow. While not yet employed the plan has served as a template for smaller scale manuevers.

'''Premise

'''The plan is to be used in the case of The Scions of Lareth or any large group of rebels joining forces with any large group of nations, with the manpower and sympathy generated by rebels and the capital and capacity to wage war of numerous empires this would create a perfect storm that could very well result in the end of The Shillite Empire, the plan was written to prevent this.

'''The Plan

'''The plan itself is thousands of pages long and intended to be managed by hundreds of Shillite beaurecrats, the following is a summary. If the an alliance were to form against the Shillites the tactic used by this coalition would most likely be to quickly mobilize a massive force of units and seize many border colonies, strangling the empire and blockading any trade routes, the alliance would suffer extremely high losses in the beggining and fortify its gains, digging in until the bulk of allied forces can be mobilized, meanwhile digging in for a "trench war" against the Shillites. The SHillites would leave token forces on planets nearby worlds occupied by the allies, meanwhile using their space fleet to cut into their northwest colonies, regaining valuable mining worlds and cutting a path for the fleet to raid allied worlds, many of the smaller allied nations would be forced to withdraw their forces to their homeworlds to prevent them from being razed. The Shillites would use this time to negotiate with criminal organizations and the more corrupt of the allied powers, once the threat of an invasion of some of the smaller allied powers by Shillites has passed many key allied figures will have been killed by the Shillite Inquisitorius or left the alliance due to fear, corruption or threats. The already demoralized and understaffed allied forces occupying Shillite worlds will see their trickle of reinforcements dry up. During this time the Shillite Space Navy will skirmish with allied fleets, slowing and disorienting their movements. Once this is done and the allies will not see reinforcements for a long time the Shillites will send large forces of soldiers to liberate allied worlds and the threat the allied powers pose will end within a decade.
