An endless stream of resources flowed to the Legion's headquarters through the Regulators' transport network. There, the Legion's formidable industrial base turned those abundant resources into various series of war machines, then dispatched them to battlefields across the front. Through this cycle, the Legion's strength snowballed.
Of course, all of this was built on draining Balchik dry. The Legion had utterly crippled Balchik's logistics, but the fact remained: a giant of the Star Sea was still a giant. Resistance across Balchik's star sectors remained fierce, even suppressing the Legion's offensive on most battlefields, to say nothing of Bennett moving from one front to another.
The Legion could still easily defeat Balchik's conventional forces, but whenever Bennett appeared, the outcome of the battle was all but settled.
