titanic life gone wrong - cant take planet back

[Omniburg]

I have never had a negative titanic life study, i didnt even know it was possible. but it is and they took over one of my colonies. so i tried to bombard it and send in troops but for some reason its stuck 100 reinforcements over the limit. its so annoying and i am completely unable to do anything. help. or is this a bug?

[Terijian]

I understand everything except "its stuck 100 reinforcements over the limit." can you clarify pls

[Ihateeverybody]

I take it to mean he has sent in all the troops he can. Last time I did this event was 1.3 or so. I cannot even begin to recall with centainty.

Is there an active battle going on?
Have troops actually landed and can you see them on the army screen?

At the end of the day it could be a bug that needs reported. Any mods installed?

No i mean the reinforcement says 1574/1400. I cant even bomb it either. I have some graphical mods installed but that is it.

uhhhg always people complaining and THEN mentioning they have mods active. I mean it's still possible that it's a game bug but like 90% of the time it's because of a mod

This may very well be an issue about not being able to bombard own planets. Happened to me a long time ago.

Well last time I had that (mind you it was some patches ago) you couldnt bombard your own planet but the planetary defenses arent working for event-armies like those titanic beasts or the mutants on tomb worlds, so you could just invade.
BUT Titanic Beasts are REALLY powerfull, you need a big numerical advantage to put them down.

Nothing to do with mods and not even a bug, they just not affected by planetary fortifications like rebels don't have to bombard your planet to be efficient. As for the number exceeding maximum value that is likely because monsters don't have any shield tech so the cap is lower)

Gotcha. I recall that happening to me a few patches back. I just had to end up making like 15-50 (cant recall) armies and invading

[RandomDude]

Yeah I had this happen to me in my last game too. Was a bit worried when I couldnt bombard and then figured they weren't able to use my planetary defences anyway.

[Ihateeverybody]

Sorry, thought reinvading (with ground troops) would be the default answer. Yeah bombing wouldn't be the answer in that situation. Try invading with armies and be prepared for a tough fight (depending on your army).

When all else fails use overwhelming force.

Well excuse me for seeing how a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ graphical mod can make a difference. Because I am sure my universe background replaces changes mechanics.
