the Kilrathi Grand Fleet
You have to understand something about the end of WC3 and the Bombing of Kilhra. From a milatary stand point, the destruction of the Kilrathi Planet meant nothing. The Kilrathi were in control of a massive empire and could call upon billions of solders and hundreads of ships. IN that scheme, the destruction of one planet means nothing. The Temblor bomb was dropped for the exact same reason that the Atomic Bombs were dropped on Heroshima and Nagaski. To break the enemies will.
And Someone touched on it somewhere in this thread, in sheer numbers the Kilrathi Grand fleet that was parked in orbit when the planet blew outmatched the entire ConFed navy. The Kilrathi had attacked earth once before too (I don't have the manual at my finger tips but it was sometime before WC1) they attacked, launched a volley of ship to planet missiles at major earth cities and then retreated. So it's not like there was only a chance the Kilrathi would attack.
