    Meeting the Aliens.

    in Roleplay & Lore

    Update

    Aliens have long been a subject of speculation and a pillar of science-fiction, so I set to wondering, if the game-makers finally decide to bring them what would we like them to be?

    EDIT!!: Do not post any pictures videos or information from the pre-alpha(as proof or otherwise) according to the NDA. 

     

    Invasions

    "Good day, MechMerchant. Conquering another planet is going to be in many ways a military campaign. For instance, let's say MechCorp decides to invade DuckNation's planet.

     

    For the sake of this example, we'll assume DuckNation owns the entire planet. Now, DuckNation was smart and affluent enough to place Territory Control Units in a large fraction of tiles (and if the developers include it, a planetary Control Unit.) 

     

    Now, MechCorp can decide to invade DuckNation's planet and conquer the Planetary Control Unit first, to weaken morale and then proceed to search and destroy each individual Territory Control Unit. But, MechCorp knows that the war will take too long and the cost of the military expenditure is too much to handle, so they switch tactics. 

     

    Instead of launching a prolonged campaign, they either send spies into DuckNation to sabotage the RDMS (which will take time as the spies need to earn the trust of DuckNation's administrators) or they decide to bribe some of the people in charge of the RDMS. 

     

    If MechCorp has the money, influence and manpower, they can even "coerce" DuckNation to pay for security, or give up certain parts of the planet to MechCorp. They could even convince one of DuckNation's allies to help in "coercing" them. Be wary of the friends you keep.

     

     From there, I leave the rest up to your imagination.

    Are TCUs and PCUs physical?
