TheRedfront then responds with guilt tactics through diplomacy, trying to settle for peace. Which then sparks outrage among populations of both sides with conflicting opinions. The Redfront is then forced to lower the size limit on the base due to it creating space-time anomalies known as “lag”.

Due to rising tensions, on the date 4/18/2320. The United Void Colonies, Tanc Industries, Outer Rim Trade, and Intergalactic Vanguard come to a vote and determine that total victory is the only option and there will be no peace with the communist. Soon Following this Decision, ORT, UVC, and IVA launch an invasion of Red front territory and engaged all communist flagged vessels withing the area. In hopes that the Red Front Fleet would be present. The Flagship Eclipse was dispatched to the home base. The Eclipse actually had the opposite effect and acted as a deterrent.
