This single sentence describes everything i hate about sci-fi nation rp's.

I mostly do this because I tend to run nations that don't have the capacity to ship millions of soldiers across galaxies to invade one planet. Plus, people tend to wank their land forces to an unbelievable echelon. 

Hence, why I throw rocks at them. That giant mecha you praise just got slammed by 600,000 pounds of ice and iron. 

Though, I stopped warring in sci-fi NRPs a long time ago on account of the sheer stupidity of the entire concept. I mean for fuck's sake, you're in space. There are free asteroids, planets, moons, and gas giants all over the place to exploit for resources. Why do I need to take planets from another nation when there is literally free shit everywhere? 

Wars in general are normally fought on account of economics, which translates to resources. Those issues cease once you acquire FTL technology.
