About Terra Invicta
Terra Invicta thrusts you into a covert struggle as an alien probe approaches Earth. Seven ideologically‑driven factions vie for influence, each proposing a different response to the looming extraterrestrial threat. Your role is to guide one hidden organization, shaping geopolitics, research, and space expansion while the alien mystery unfolds across crash sites, megafauna, and robotic armies.
01 / THE GUIDE
Faction Ideologies
Seven distinct factions—Resistance, Humanity First, Servants, Protectorate, Academy, Initiative, and Project Exodus—each pursue a unique agenda, from forming alliances to profiting from chaos or fleeing the Solar System.
You lead a shadowy organization rather than a nation, using councilors and covert actions to spread your ideology and compete with the other six groups for global sway.
- Align early moves with your faction’s core belief.
- Watch events that shift public opinion toward or against your ideology.
02 / THE GUIDE
Global Research System
A shared scientific network creates both competition and cooperation; advances unlock private engineering projects that can boost your faction’s capabilities.
Focusing heavily on private projects may weaken Earth’s overall progress, allowing other factions to steer research toward their own priorities.
- Balance private engineering with shared research to keep influence.
- Monitor rivals’ research focus to anticipate strategic shifts.
03 / THE GUIDE
Space Expansion & Ship Design
Beyond Earth you can build space stations that serve as shipyards, fuel depots, mining hubs, and research facilities, extending your reach across the moving Solar System.
Ship design lets you mix weapons, drives, and modules on various hulls, shaping fuel capacity, maneuverability, and combat effectiveness within a Newtonian physics model.
- Plan station locations with orbital movement in mind.
- Design ships with a balanced mix of fuel, armor, and weapons.
04 / THE GUIDE
Control Points & Geopolitics
Influence is measured by control points that represent a region’s military, economic, and political leadership, allowing you to direct proxy wars and shape national policies.
Securing wealthy or militarily strong regions accelerates your ability to fund projects, sway councilors, and project power both on Earth and in space.
- Target high‑GDP regions for faster resource gain.
- Use experienced councilors to strengthen proxy actions.
05 / THE GUIDE
