Well, usually the bigger army are the invaders. Defence tends to have an edge

Hrmm...guess Miéville failed to follow the script then *NM*

and a lot of others. But there's a rumour somewhere that it's not the size that matters... *NM*

It's still a valid point, even if one author doesn't "follow the script." *NM*

Oops, sorry. Probably a thoughtcrime to put a space in. Rebellious waste of... pixels? Space? *NM*

I agree. 1984 is not SF-F. *NM*

It's a novel which heavily relies upon futuristic technology. How is it not Science Fiction? *NM*

I would say that if a story uses that sort of thing, it has a science fiction element.
