Re: Feature Request: Pickup from enemy planet
Well that's the thing, I thought I had enough forces - the enemy isn't defending his worlds.
It seems that the militia calculation isn't handled in any combat, it's just some "under the hood" thing whereby every turn the occupying force either takes the planet or reduces its population by a small amount. Effectively this has my forces stuck on the planet. I can't even kill off a few billion from orbit to make things easier, nor will it let me drop additional troops on the planet.
So yeah, a retreat option would be nice. Besides, I've given the AI plenty of chances to surrender. I figure if you threaten to wipe out the enemy 5 times in a row and each time he says "go ahead", eventually you're going to have to make good on your promise.
