T67: Even with comparatively few cities compared with Civ, late-game turns in Planetfall take ages to play. I spend the turn mostly trying to move our scattered armies to where they’ll be most useful for claiming sectors via conquest and defending cities. I also try to get most of our cities on a positive happiness balance, for beneficial events.
T68: I begin priming our doomsday op, 3 turns until ready. I also destroy a 12-unit Automoton army, losing a single Trencher who ate a crit.
T69: I eliminate some random NPCs for the Growth and clear a lair.
T70:
One of our opponents teleports three stacks of mostly T1 infantry and Automoton units with basic mods onto our southern continent. I have a powerful army nearby, but not close enough to counter before they can do some temporary damage.
T71:
Okay, this might be a problem. The Vanguard easily take one of our cities, and then teleport in two more armies; there’s now about 30 units invading our south. Granted, we could lose the whole continent and it wouldn’t delay our victory, but I’d rather keep it intact regardless.
In happier news, I cast our game-winning spell. 10 turns to victory. Unfortunately, it doesn’t actually do much, as game-winning techs go.
I also realize that we have like a half-dozen defensive ops primed for some reason, so I start unleashing them.
IBT: The Vanguard advance all of their forces, in three battle groups of two stacks each. One attacks a production district where we have a cosmite node; they win, but I’m able to kill one full stack using the local militia.
T72:
I recapture our cosmite-carrying district and wipe the remainder of the units who took it.
I then use our best stack in the area to eliminate two more of the enemy’s; only two Vanguard stacks remain, each led by an hero unit.
T73:
Last Vanguard troops removed from our land. I recapture our city without further incident.
Scouting reveals of ton of enemies, mostly Automaton, on one of the other continents. I don’t think they’ll all attack us at once, though.
T74:
Not much happening.
T75 (I think, this might actually be T74, lost count):
At this point I’ll hand things over to MJW to finish our SG off. Things are currently fairly quiet, the Vanguard are gassed and everyone else is marching huge armies against each other. We have three full armies in the south in case you want to have some fun getting revenge on the Vanguard, and close to four on our starting continent. Just be alert for final attacks warping in, and it should be a fairly simple set.
