What Moscow desperately wanted to keep out of the public eye was the fat that it took Vostok-1 over three months to survey Luna. To ensure this, the shuttle was not allowed to return to Earth. It's nine-man crew, haggard and starving, finally landed at Baikonur on 5th September and were rushed to receive medical care and badly needed haircuts before the inevitable public parades would begin.
In November, Moscow announced that Luna held all 11 TN-minerals and that they were all easily accessible albeit in much smaller numbers that on Earth. This seemed to confirm the hypothesis of some planetary scientists that the Moon, larger as it was than most moons in the system, was a fragment of Earth itself and had been formed in a gigantic collision between proto-Earth and some other, unknown planetoid.

In November, NASA gained Mercury Two and the two shuttles were sent together to survey their namesake planet, completed by 20th November.
This campaign will be either a triumph of the modern era or a monument to man's hubris in the face of overwhelming micromanagement, either way I am here for it! ;D
And yes, multiple geological survey ships can work together in the same Fleet to combine their points when surveying a single body. If you're using standing orders, the surveyors avoid each other, I guess to avoid wasteful traveling between bodies.

Have no fear, the hubris will inflate and expand once 2.5.1 is here as Steve confirmed that the fighter cargo bug will be fixed with just an exe change. So this campaign will resume then!

It is the first time that Stalin had left the Soviet Union since the Potsdam Conference of 1945 and CIA analysts are shocked to see that the Generalissimus looked healthy and spry instead of the near-death ghoul that they were expecting based on the rumours that they had collected from Moscow the last two years. In fact, many had thought that Stalin had died at some point in 1953. Yet here he was, doing his best to crush Eisenhower's hand at the press meeting as if he wasn't 12 years the American's senior. Peculiarly, Molotov looked and acted his age as did every other senior member of the Soviet delegation.
((In other words, I do not want to create OOBs for USA and USSR on Earth nor simulate ground war on Earth either. Sorry, Red Dawn is not going to happen.))
NASA added the asteroid Magellan to its list of surveyed rocks while the Soviet Union built ten Krivak-M class gunships, making a total of twenty. The M version incorporated the new Glushko RD-104 engine, increasing the gunships speed from 600 km/sec to 700 km/sec, though this cut its range down to 2.6 billion kilometres from the 3.8 billion that the older version had. Kreml saw this as an acceptable price as the class was meant for Cislunar operations only.
How'd you manage to get the 5,000-ton army regiments up to Luna? Last time I used fighter shuttles to move some Xeno equipment I ended up having to break the unit down into individual trucks - the 10 shuttle squad couldn't pick up the 10 trucks all at once; it could only pick up 10 individual trucks.I created five different 250-ton formations, built a bunch of each, then used the shuttles to move them over and finally merged them together into those five regiments you see. Because the numbers did not match perfectly, I did not use the replacement template system but I think I'll try it with the Americans.
This seems ominous as it hints to some darker force behind Stalin's apparent good health...Oh dear, what could it be? 8)
But then how will the Chinese get screwed over again, as is tradition?I'm not sure if this campaign will last long enough for China to join in but we can hope that the tradition continues ;D
And what is the US doing to counter this threat? Pretty soon it will not matter if the Soviets keep their agreement not to engage in ground combat if they can just kinetic-strike the West into dust unopposed! :oAsk and ye shall receive!
