So I was thinking. If the only reason the armies of the world alone cant fight the alien invasion is because of how outgunned they are compared to the alien technology, why not arm them with weapons designed by phalanx? What would happen if you donated laser rifles and d-f cartridges to the various armies of the world? or donated advanced interceptors? or other technologies like nano-suits? wouldnt that make defending earth easier?
It also raises the question of what happens when you sell alien weapons you dont need. where do those weapons go?
This gives me an idea for a possible alternate winning condition. Have a meter for how effective the worlds armies are at defending themselves (starting at 0). Everytime you produce new weapons and equipment, you have an option for donating it to an army of your choice, which causes the meter to go up a small percentage. This could be a way of earning better relationships with the various funding nations. Eventually the meter would start going up by itself at various small percentages at a time. when it reaches 100% over time youd get an alternate ending, where the armies of the world join with you to fight off the invasion.
I feel like it would be a good idea if you wanted to show how much of an impact PHALANX is having on the world
