Terminus, Rachni, Geth and Quarian fleets. Ok.
As i said earlier, even by adding the Krogan that barely goes past minimum EMS.
Attempting to conquer council space? Really? Against the Palaven armada? That's suicide and spells certain death for the galaxy. Besides, that would unite the council races even more than the Reaper threat. Except against you.
Re-read that part of the codex/wiki that talks about the geth fleets. Then add the quarians. Then the Terminus. You're already unbeatable by any other faction. The rachni are a bonus. So yeah, turians have nothing. Remember how the geth roflstomped the Citadel fleets in the first game? Yeah and that was just the Heretics which are only a small fraction of the geth. And no, it wasn't just because of Sovereign. There's a reason no one ****s with the geth.
Samara and Aria can't get you an Asari alliance. Sure Aria can phone the councillor and skip bureaucracy but there's an ocean between that and mobilizing Thessia.
Justicars are trusted as.... justicars, but couldn't be more external to political matters. Plus a majority of the Asari themselves see them as dangerous weirdos.
Asari never question a justicar's orders. The game
tells you this. When Shepard asks what gives a justicar her authority the asari port worker just looks at him like he sprouted a second head. Normal law-abiding asari can't even conceptualize not trusting a justicar's judgement. If Samara says Shepard is ok, the asari
will believe her.
You're also underestimating what skipping bureaucracy means.
Mordin is a revered secret agent but hardly important on a political level. The Dalatrass is more than ready to sacrifice him to you. Much like M wouldn't think twice about sacrificing Bond for England's sake.
The dalatrass can be bypassed. And should've been if they had any time to really plan this **** out. Mordin would give you the low-down on who you do need to talk to.
Garrus does indeed become a respected and commanding figure within the Turian army.... but only if he parts ways with you AFTER you turn himself in. Otherwise he remains stuck being vice-Shepard.
The Turian are definitely able to see the best path to take, but still they can't follow you if their allies see you as a criminal.
And....Tuchanka bomb? Seriously? The Krogan can find out about it on their own, and then either DIE or disarm it and then go to war against the Turians. The consequences of which would be apocalyptic.
(also, remember that, even if you end up with that **** Wreav in charge, you STILL have to go through a diplomatic meeting with Turian and Salarian forces, none of which would ever deal with a terrorist criminal, in order to get the Krogan alliance).
I was thinking more of his dad. The real pull Garrus achieved was due to his father. He doesn't need to go anywhere to talk to good ol' dad. And even if he does need to leave, that has nothing to do with Shepard's situation. Maybe calibrations will get a little behind but hey, what can you do.
The turians can be blackmailed with the bomb's discovery. Victus refused to talk about it in front of Wrex. Why's that you think? Because it would cause an incident. An incident they'd rather avoid. In exchange for what? Oh nothing much. Just stop dicking around and arm up. That's all Shepard's message. Arm yourselves and be ready. Oh and pro tip: even if all turians absolutely hate Shepard, if they think he's going to invade, guess what they're going to do? Arm the **** up. Then when the Reapers show up they won't get caught with their pants down. Like they did. All Shepard needs to do then is go "I told you so" and then point to where they should shoot.
Finally, the Shadow Broker might get you a few ships, but they'll never truly be a match for government navies. She can 'spark a war', but that can only mean a very minor conflict. Superpowers will always prefer negotiation and require more than misinformation to declare war against each other. Now THAT would be retarded if they did.
You really dont get how political tensions work do you? You make it seem as if A is hinting at war with B, B gets wind of this and arms up for war with A, they're all arming up and getting prepared... and then the Reapers hit.
Better to already have a gun in your hand than to scramble for it while your buddies are already getting melted.
Bottom line: no. Any major action by an unlawful Shepard would only achieve plunging the galaxy into further disarray. Even going as far as triggering a major war between your assets and those who would preemptively attack you, or at least demand you stop doing what you're doing, because they see your massing armada as a potential threat.
Bottom line, you're severely misinformed and under entirely wrong presumptions.
Oh, and final bomb drop- all this massing and preparing and sparking tensions to force preparations? No one even neeeds to know Shepard's behind it. :bandit:Boom.
