Any way I find it interesting how in the THDF universe most space to planet wars where just slash and burn operations. Moving in fast to take out the most vital targets in orbit and on land to cripple the enemies military and economy. This left very little room for sea battles as sea battles only take place in a planetary invasion during long term combat which was usually avoided to reduce casualties waiting around for both side to have reinforcements constantly arrive and in attempt to have already ran after a hit so their is no risk of retaliation.

Due to this, most vital facilities that where build under a planets ocean or deep underground where usually never found, and thus planets such as Gaeto where never truly able to be defeated as with their most well hidden quality locations they could always rebuild.

This changed during the post war rebirth of the war, when Gaeto was finally defeated. Originally it wasn't meant to have lost but I had promised weather or not Gaeto wins would be up to the community, and at the time the participation was small enough to end it with "Where was the NGRs loyal supporters then?" A epic story plot.

After this the Sirens had become involved in the war, and this gave way to a new battle field. The sea, which had then become a much more common battlefield. Sea battles became the new norm due to the fact that no matter how conquered a planet was if the enemy are still at sea they can use naval might and marine landing squadrons to retake the coast and then launch a sea to land air strike to support dropships that can quickly retake entire islands/contenents. Most naval power included anti ship classes, anti air classes, sea to land combat classes, and sea to orbit interceptors. With Siren allies the chat stood no chance in direct combat at sea.

To try to adapt to where the chat now stood no chance they had tried to begin the use of a new branch of the military elite. http://thdf.wikia.com/wiki/Naval_Infantry_Marine_Super_Shock_Trooper

I am making this thread blog documentary to say that I am disappointed that we did not have a chance to use them, this is due to the community having become far to small to make enough progress to have their part in the story happen before I find a opening chance to bring in the Ptranosaurian age.

At this point however the age of opertunity reopened, as the community had returned and decided "We don't like that we missed out and aren't ready for the Ptranosaurian age, first we want to expand apon stories of late and post war aside from the elite wet naval battles." Which, I agree 120% your right to do, good call. But I request that if your ever in the mood for some amphibious action, try to find that opportunity to not let that go to waste.

On the bright side, Ptranosaurians usually try to avoid combat at sea them selves without their amphibious allies who are currently still in their own galaxy, so the opportunity in the future may not be lost.
