Each small territory can be assimilated into a larger territory.

@Etcetera

Aren't territories dimensions?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Mhm, I did.

@Fractured

Well, I was trying to tank before I was actually a tank, and Ruby stuck with me and healed me. I developed... well, the Tier Four equivalent of calluses. From head to toe.

Territories are often large because they can be defended by capable parties. Small territories can be overtaken in pieces.

@Etcetera

Overtaken in pieces? I thought one territory is one territory.

Dane:
Ah, the Chaos being. Is Ruby nearby then, as well? You two arent usually that far apart.

@souleaterfan320

Not usually. She's out with her friends at home. I'm safe here, so she doesn't have to come around.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

I've never seen anything like that.

@Fractured

Oh. Well. *Waves one of my dark green hands* Now you have. You heard how I told Dane I was a tank in battle?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

It can discourage conquering parties from targeting your territory due to its size.

@Etcetera

But if they could get it in one fell swoop, since they only have to challenge two Tier Fours, wouldn't they want to go for big territories owned by two beings?

How you handle internal affairs is outside of the scope of this agreement.

@Etcetera

I dunno. It just doesn’t make a lot of sense to me to have more than one territory. What arrangements of dimensions are strategic in this way you’ve said?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

No.

@Fractured

Oh, I guess you never really needed it. You can train up your body as far as you want to to go, once you hit Tier Four, biological restrictions or no, I think.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Many territories remain unclaimed. You can decrease the likelihood of conflict by changing the strategic layout of territories around your dimension.

@Etcetera

Hmm, well, I can see some benefit in a kind of spoke-wheel pattern. But if those crazies with the inter dimensional missiles gun for one of my territories, especially one that’s not as advanced as my own, all those people are now my responsibility. I guess that’s the hero life, but why risk lives by claiming territories as a small party and expose them to the fire of larger parties?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Balance>

I'll listen to that too.

@Fractured

It’s the same reason my hands are all green. You know how, once you’re Tier Four, you get that unlimited cap on strength?
