New Kurt campaign? Hooray! Reading right now.

Its been a while, I know.  I should have more time these, days, though, and I've been spending some  of my new-found time on Aurora.  Steve tells me that it will be a while before the new version of Aurora is out, so I decided to do a campaign in the current version.  I'll be posting fairly regularly for a while, as I'm nine years out in the campaign timeline so far.

I predict an independence movement on Mars. Only question is, when?

I'm glad you guys are enjoying this campaign!  It's been a while since I've written anything, and I thought I'd start a nice little - simple - campaign to get back into the swing of things.  This one kind of sucked me in though.  I never intended for it to go as far as its gone.  More to come!

Update comment

Sorry for the lack of updates lately.  I've gone down a Hearts of Iron IV rathole, and just came up for air.  On the bright side, I might be able to use some of the HOI 4 campaigns I just fought out as background for new Aurora or Starfire campaigns, so its not a complete waste of time. 

I should have another update for this campaign shortly.

It seems someone was a bit over confident.  I deny that it was me.  It was all Admiral Law!

Poor ol' Earth can't catch a break!  And Luna can't stop surrendering to aliens (who couldn't care less). . . .

So even with the improved AMMs they're still getting through.   Is the new design still not fast enough, or is it a problem of not enough missiles getting launched in time? 

Would trying to build a bunch of cheap emergency PDC's with meson turrets for final fire defense be worthwhile?  Related, how's Earth's industry doing?

Thanks again for the LP!

The primary problem in the latest attack was that there were very few AMM's left after the last several battles, and so the defenders couldn't saturate the incoming missile waves with enough defensive missiles.  The defenders are doing their best, and with full production turned to producing more and better AMM's the situation should improve steadily.  Earth is in for a tough time, though...

Yeah, you can say that again! Many would have abandoned and restarted the game, kudos for sticking with it Kurt.

To be honest, when the situation turned sour I seriously considered abandoning this campaign, saying something along the lines of "Humanity lost, and will spend eternity toiling in the Dregluk Empire's spice mines", and just move on to a new campaign.  But then I thought about how interesting it would be to actually play out the fall of humanity's civilization, and then I saw a potential way forward.  Several of the Dregluk attacks have been tedious, but I'm finding it interesting, and I hope everyone else is too!
