The Templin Institute investigates the nations, organizations and factions of alternate worlds,
but starting next month, we’ll be documenting an interstellar society of our own creation.
Stellaris Invicta is a new mini-series from the Templin Institute in which we’ll guide
a future version of humanity from their first fledging steps past the edge of the Solar
System, to perhaps, the domination of the entire galaxy.
Every week we’ll live-stream a grand campaign of Stellaris on our Twitch channel, and then,
depending on the events of the game, produce a series of episodes detailing the history
of our nation, its successes and failures.
Our viewers will have the opportunity to name cities, admirals, planets and even star systems,
as well as influence our nation’s course of action and forever alter the fate of the
galaxy.
But the first choice you’ll have to make is which nation we’ll be leading in Stellaris
Invicta.
Will it be the United Federation of Nations, a vast democratic union of Earth’s most
powerful governments dedicated to human achievement in all things and the liberation of the oppressed.
Or the Soviet Union, fresh from its victory over the last capitalist bastions on Earth
and now marching forward under the red banner of Lenin to establish communism across the
galaxy.
It’s soldiers bringing the might of the workers to bear against whatever alien tyrants
dare stand against the glory of the revolution.
Or the Holy Solar Empire, greatest of the warrior clans that fought across Earth’s
atomic wastelands, catapulted onto the galactic stage by the discovery of an intact colony
ship and who now seek to pillage and burn all those who defy the divine lights of the
cosmos.
Or finally, the Greater Terran Union, once an emergency military coalition formed to
repell an alien invasion, now a powerful world government.
One that demands complete loyalty to the state, mandatory military service and the domination
of humanity across the galaxy, now and forever.
But those brief descriptions are just the tip of the iceberg.
Starting right now, detailed summaries of each nation, their government, society, military
and history will be released daily on our Facebook and Twitter pages.
Once each nation has been fully revealed, it will be up to all our Patrons to decide
which is chosen.
A pledge of just $1 a month gets you a vote, so if you’re able, check us out on Patreon.
But we’re not quite done yet, humanity will be encountering perhaps dozens of alien races
as they expand across the stars, and we want your creations to be among them.
We’ve included in this video’s description a template you can fill out with your alien
empire’s name, government, ethics and history.
Email your completed empire to templininstitute@gmail.com for the chance to have your race appear in
the galactic community.
When the voting ends, we’ll release the first episode of Stellaris Invictus detailing
the background of our nation prior to their discovery of interstellar travel, and then
begin streaming our progress on Twitch soon after.
If you miss a stream, don’t worry!
Each session will be available on the Templin Archives channel, now fully operational here
on Youtube.
You’ll find a link to that in the description as well.
We hope you’re excited for Stellaris Invicta, if you’d like to know more, be sure to check
out our Facebook, Twitter and Patreon pages over the next few days for more details and
faction summaries.
The countdown has now started for humanity to take its rightful place amongst the stars.
Which nation do you want to see leading the way?
The United Federation of Nations, Soviet Union, Holy Solar Empire, or Greater Terran Union?
Let us know in the comments!
The Choice Is Yours
