there are formulas for how skynet assigns targets based on a number of factors. This ranges from number of wars the enemy is in, staggering, tech, infra, and other variables.

Personally I don't really like this.
IMO it is a good system for assigning targets for the NPO of 2007, however we now live in 2010 and target assignments should be based on availability of the attacker the number of attackers available and other factors that would be difficult to model in an algorithm.
An alliance should use Skynet as a decision support tool instead of an operational tool it is presented here.
I'm not saying this is awful, but in the WotC MK proved the side with the best assignments could do some serious damage instead of the side with just the most nations.
