OOC: Dude, they only just started setting a perimeter.

IC: While the ships were traveling through slipspace, Flt. Adm. Harmon looks over his map of the EO star system and realizes that if Prometheus discovers that the USNiE had taken the entire belt, all out war could occur. So Harmon walks to a computer and sends a message to the fleet to read once out of cryosleep:

"Attention Resistance forces, change of plans. I want only one fourth of the belt to be annexed by us. It's the best way to prevent us from going to war with Neo-Earth, which we'll probably cause if all of it is taken."

The message is received as soon as the fleet splits off, so the fleet's commanding officer orders the perimeter to take up 25% of the belt.
