I was wondering, if SOASE had Land Based Combat. Like in Star Wars Empire at War or planterary invasion like Galactic Civilizations you can do that. While fighting the enemy in space, you can pause and focus on the land battle or both .So here is what i think.
Colony ships can be upgraded with assault pods to send troops along with colonists to go to the planet. Your Colony Battleships can send vehicles.
Land Based Abilities and Orbital Bombardment. Each side gets new abilities and one unique abilities. Normal abilities are Invasion and Bombardment
TEC
Tractor Beams: Attach these on Krosov(can only tractor 5 asteroids) and Marza(can tractor 15) and bombard with asteroids causing planet damge
Robotic Soldiers: Send Robotic Soldiers along with Human Soldiers to invade.
Advent
Join the Advent
Infiltratos promising them a better life under our rule, unhappy citizens are likely to join our side. Must have allegiance at 50 percent.
Planet Tremor: By scattering gravity-altering satellites into orbit around inhabited planets, we'll be able to cause earthquakes. May reduce life and irreplaceable planet damage.
Vasari
Gas Warfare; Viral Clouds are release on enemies reducing defensive strength but may cause irreversible organic life damage meaning less population less health and maybe even changing the planet.
Massarce: Kill all populace and send broadcast to enemy. May cause rebellions
What do think, should it be RTS style or Turn based
What about "optional" mini-games that some of us might enjoy? You would use your ships to control the space around the star then the battle for the planets begin. You could choose to bombard from orbit as we do now or drop marines/missionaries. If you take the planet from space then there would be some kind of penalty like 5 turns without building or income.
If you slug it out on the ground and drop marines or missionaries (to convert the heathens) each turn you would get a chance to ask for the inhabitants to surrender. Every turn they don't surrender their infrastructure is degraded. Eventually their ability to resist is withered away. Taking a planet this way would allow you to take direct control of all structures and a bonus +5% to everything produced population/culture/crystal/metal etc... So it would be a strategic choice not just tactical.
As I play Advent I will be dropping missionaries. Now if I can just find enough zealots who prefer the missionary position.
