Hi,
2 years ago I asked Steve if Alien landed on planets with ground forces. He told me no, they don't, they always glasses in fact.
Now, I don't see anything in the changelog regarding that, so I guess that's already true? You'll never get invaded by alien ground forces, unless someone had a different experience?

On one occasion i've been attacked on the ground, but I think it was a messed up Spoiler.
if you want defensive Ground combat you'll have to run the enemy faction yourself.. xD

Ruins can spawn robotic guardians which will attack.

It was a Precursor troopship, but it dropped a battalion on Earth for some reason. O_o

Did you eyeball them funny? :)

I have been invaded in the same fashion as TheDeadlyShoe, just not on earth and slightly different conditions.
I took over a precursor base on a moon and next thing I know a troop ship showed up with what I think was the equivalent of 10 divisions and landed on what I just took. Annilated my ground forces and so I turned my guns on them since there was no air to stop me and blasted away with Gauss cannons and rail guns.
It took nearly a month to kill them all.
Also, precursor troop ships dont appear to actually be ships. When they landed the ship dissapeared, its like the ship itself turns into the troops.

I was attacked on the ground by one of these spoilers, too. The planet in question had alien ruins on it, but I had not yet landed a construction battalion, only an initial garrison. My landing ships didn't have active sensors, but passive sensors saw momentary signals of a ship (or ships, can't remember). There were also two missiles, bouys I suppose, sitting in orbit of the planet. Those sat there until I shot them down much later.
