Another useless Tier 1 fyi I believe this makes 4. Figured I'd share the intel before I refuse his invitation anyways
Alias/Name: High Marshal Sir James Poole
Tier: 1
Skill level: 1
[spoiler]How they came to be: OBE, MBE, PhD, BsC, Ms, VC.
Captain of the British X-304 (HMS Britannia) High Marshal Poole has been assigned overall command of Earths fleet which met with much controversy when the IOA ordered the appointment.
At the age of 62 he is also the oldest serving officer in the SG programme. He has experience to match his age though and as such has served in no less than five different conflicts (2x
Gulf Wars, Cold War, Falken Islands, Afghanistan). Poole is noted for being an excellent commander and created a manoeuvre whereby he engages hyperdirve momentarily to jump behind a target and surprise it but is also noted for having a cynical and anti-social character. He is also acknowledged for having many titles being a Member of the British Empire and a holder
of a knighthood, Order of the British Empire, Victoria Cross, a Masters in astrophysics and a Bachelors degree in physics and an honorary doctorate of military grand aviation strategy
from St Andrews University. Poole is particularly distrustful of aliens and has had noted difficulties with the Jaffa and Vaala Maldoran. Although he has not tried to ascend, Poole is no short
of being a Demi-god[/spoiler]
Ability:
Increased attack--2.89%

This was from a somewhat sloppy 15 At HA spam neutral/neutral versus a higher expanse 5b VS 7b.

Even though I was spam happy my total strike did not exceed 105% of their defense. Important to note they have no CS at all and mine was intentionally low balled to 199k (300T added strike).
A shame too I was massing 20Q defs all night and calcing each strike to be within 100.5%-101% of their def lol. The moment you become lazy you get a tier 1 instead of a tier 5. Virtual reality is very cruel. Live by the Sol die by the Sol.
