However if an empire had no large outfits all the midsized ones would still mainly attack the same targets forming a zerg the leetfits could work around. Leetfits and the organized midsized outfits are what mainly moved the maps in PS, zergfits were for the most part rather useless.
OT - As for a cap, its not necessary, if someone wants to herd all the noobs let em.

While I sort've agree with this sentiment, you cannot last that charge at robo's door. GotR were the single most consistently effective, large-scale Outfit in the history of PS and, particularly under his leadership, the VS on Emerald relied upon them. That aside however, I do believe most large Outfits are too big to be anything but less than the sum of their parts. I'd rather play to my full capability than feel like I was being held back because I was worried that I needed superior numbers in order to win...
