In the context of the story, I have never seen any viable third parties aside from the Belter League being a mutual foe of both ANR and IDC. Though if I were to include the ANZCF it would have to be on a provisional basis and they would have to be a separatist faction that is no longer associated with TransOrbital/Australia. The military strength of ANR and IDC is numbered in the tens of thousands, so ANZCF being over 100k would already make it more powerful than the two of them and that would negate the entire ANR-IDC Feud. The death of a single member of the ANZCF seems fairly small reason to initiate a conflict with IDC, I am thinking something bigger, something like a ANZCF freighter disaster being tied back to IDC sabotage but really something of a false flag. New Cairns would also be exceptionally large for an orbital outpost, even the largest space station in Space Warfare is an O'Neill cylinder only a few km across. Terraforming is largely impossible on Mars and Venus at this point in time, however, Project Gaia can be seen as a sort of re-terraforming project for Earth. If ANZCF is included though, it would have to be in a later installment as in the beginning I can only see the conflict being between ANR and IDC. Are you willing to loosen a bit of your ideas?
