Against the Core Fleet, which would almost certainly be all about the
brass and the chrome. While it's not up with Vland (let alone the
Solomani Rim), Ilelish has quite a few hi-pop worlds. That said, the
only really large and effective fleets are probably the Solomani Rim
fleets (the Marches, Corridor, coreward Vland, and Daibei will have
experienced fleets, but probably not super-large ones), because it's the
heavily developed sector with a hostile peer just over the border.

Looking at sector populations, the Rebellion probably only lasted
because the Solomani jumped in and thus pinned the Solomani Rim fleet
down. Then everything fragments, because the new Emperor not only has a
dodgy claim (survivable) but has just shown himself to be ineffective
(not survivable), so the fence-sitters go independent.

Of course the core problem was Dulinor's lack of guts. If he'd stayed in
Capital, sitting on the throne, he might've sold his coup. As it was, he
admitted he'd failed when he fled.

Works for me.
