How do I assault an Alien Landing?
Posted: Wed Nov 23, 2022 4:48 pm
Validation build 0.3.39 (patch 0.40 does not seem to be available as yet).
I had the Xeno's land in part of the EU, and despite everything I tried it was simply not possible to assault it.
I could not declare war on the EU even though we had rivalry and I ran the mission (National Policy) I could not declare war.
The EU armies tried but fled, and Lisbon region became an Alien Nation.
Okey Dokey - just attack that then, but no. Not possible.
I even tried to declare a war on them, but there was simply no option to do so under any faction, including 'Unaligned'.
The EU was under control of The Academy, but not the Alien Nation (obs) and I could neither invade Lisbon with my massed forces and neither could I nuke it - 'no valid target' was the message that kept appearing.
If there was a hidden way to declare war then I certainly could not find it, no matter where I looked, and it strikes me as a bit weird having to declare a war against an invading army, given they have already declared open hostilities at this point (Late 2034 game time) which seemed early to me hence why I am asking if there is something I have missed?
Any suggestions gratefully recieved as this is a dead game now and I have no idea what I did wrong or why I could not assault the invaders.
It's time to start again - but will wait until I see version 0.4 now as the Research Campus has been dramatically nerfed I see, and that alone would have caused my extinction because the sheer number of research Campus I had built will immediately tip me from barely held hate from the Xenos into open hostility & I had not built fleets to defend myself as it is so early in the game.....I thought I had more time!
