Introduction[]
During the temporary opening into 8-3 Aonohara, suspicious movements of the HRA were found, leading to the discovery of an amassing army of HRA. In response to this, the Time Government ordered the Saniwa to prepare for a Great Invasion.
To aid in this, the Time Government launched the three-part Counter-Invasion Strengthening Programme, with the mechanics for the actual Great Invasion event introduced bit by bit until the opening of the Great Invasion event itself. All Citadels have been fending off the Great Invasion on the Time Government in the raid-like Resistance against the Great Invasion event.
