How To Invade Space
As the Federation, how do you end the war once you have defeated Zeon on Earth? There doesn't seem to be a clear way to attack and invade the space colonies. No battle of Solomon or A Baoa Qu, for example.

As Zeon it also seems strange that you are perfectly safe in space, and can focus entirely on the war on Earth. I've managed to capitulate the Federation in 3 months.

thx. You are right. I have yet to properly create a battle in space or a battle to end the war.
I've prepared some decisions, like Operation Cemballo, but they're not yet fully built in.

Ok, that's fine. I was just wondering if I had missed a way to interact with Space. Maybe you could make a special terrain modifier for the space colonies that means only mobile suits can attack them. Tanks and infantry get -100% attack or something. Then the Federation could eventually launch an invasion of the colonies once they start production of Mobile suits, and Zeon would have a reason to leave some forces there.

Or you could make a more drastic decision, and eliminate naval combat entirely, and replace all water-based techs with space techs. Then both Federation and Zeon could produce cruisers and fight over control of "space" around earth. Just some ideas, you can choose whatever you like best.

Hi Ritter, thanks for the suggestions. It's something we've been discussing a lot in our dev talks. The problem with that is there is a portion of Gundam that revolves around the naval combat but rest assured Kaznoko is working on it!

Something I realized after I couldn't move ships in for naval invasions is it is VERY easy to invade space via paradrop operations from Chile and Argentina if you lose Luna II. Something that may be able to help you guys with the space based assets is maybe converting the missile sites into spaceship construction yards. That way when they are done they can be launched into space from earth or space. Replace the missiles with ship classes maybe or something along those lines. I am not sure what the technicals on that are but just a thought.

Also Zeon normally surrenders if you take both Solomon and A Baoa Qu so if you are in a jam spam a ton of aircraft and get green air. Zeon makes little to no aircraft from the dozen or so Fed runs I have done so paradrops go almost unopposed.

Love the work on the mod so far and am looking forward to what you guys have in store next!

How dose one invade earth?

After declaring war, select a decision "Organize Earth Attack Force".
then, you can select a decision "Earth Invasion".

ジオンでプレイしているのですが、ディシジョンの「第一次地球降下作戦」実施前に地球降下作戦の国家精神が消えてしまったのですが、再度取り直す事は出来ないでしょうか?
