@Zilla - I don't even know enough words to describe that fucking cow worshiper.

Anyway what I think about the Zarbanian thing is this: the warlord beats Gridlock's armies, but really isn't interested in destroying or owning the Powers. He doesn't trust them due to hearing of their former connection to the Darklings, but doesn't want to bog his armies down in a giant war.

So he has a hologram chat with Gridlock. He basically says "I'm not interested in fighting you. I have better things to do. But I can't trust you not to attack me again, so either give me 15% of your empire (which is what Germany lost after WWI) or I will kill you right now and make the Shattered Princeling a puppet leader."

Gridlock, not wanting his people to die for nothing, says fine, take it, and fuck off. He does. As for the protectorates and colonies they give up, that's up to you.
