Hi There,



first of all I’m a real fan of games in this genre and similar ones. But there is one key feature that annoys me on nearly all of them!



You conquer planets without ground troops. It would not only give broader tactical depts., but would also add a huge gain in game fun.



There are several ways one could include such a feature, some ideas below:



1. Give a simulated battle that runs in a small screen, e.g. like in Hearts of iron, but with less tactical math’s in the background.

2. Run map war like in Empire at War, Star Wars.

3. Run given generated Wars like the space wars implemented so far.

Either way, troop research would have to be included, several types of units (e.g. Close combat, ranged and artillery). A separate research tree, scoping the size of the other four might be appropriate.



If this feature was included in a spectacular enough way, you would have the stuff for a real DLC or Add-on that would generate more income to that producing company and result in an even better game!

I believe this has been discussed a fair number of times, including posts from developers.



It will happen, eventually.

... and that will be great!!!!!!!!

oh yes, damn straight, I am so looking forward to this...
