"Are those guys crazy?!"
"No." Jovy replied over the communication channel. "The Rubarthans are not crazy. Perhaps their strategic direction sounds reckless when you only take the Battle of Philaster Crestia into account. What you are overlooking is the wider strategic outlook of the Rubarthan Pact. The newly independent colonial empire will inevitably encounter more Incubators over the course of the Voribug War. If the Incubator spawns a high-level Goliath, then the intelligence gathered from it is more valuable than preserving the lives of every soldier. Even the loss of the star system can be excused."
"..."
When Jovy put it like that, Ves basically understood what was going through the minds of the Rubarthan leaders.
The Voribug War was destined to unfold into a lengthy multi-year marathon.
