This is well written and constructed, but you're really not making good use if the visual part of the medium. I could use screenshots or art depicting all those alien races, because otherwise they're all just "friendly aliens" and "hostile aliens". More importantly, I'd like to see an actual map of space to know what the hell is going on where and whose empire is bigger and more resourceful.

I really love this series! It would be amazing to explore more of the "lore" of this universe. I mean to learn more about the neighboring empires or maybe dossiers on Admirals or other important leaders. There is so much potential here, so much to discover! (albeit it will be a shitload of work to craft all that from almost scratch, but it would be so amazing!) Keep up the good work! One little request: Would it be somehow possible to show galaxy maps in the video? I know it might be difficult to integrate a boring map into the video but it would provide context for people who didn't watch the live stream.... or maybe upload the galaxy map at crucial points of the story. (Beginning of Wars, Ending of wars, etc.)

I have an idea. I can understand that the showing the actual UI or alien portray of the game might break the atmosphere, so how about when introducing new alien, showing their starbase, ships and homeworld? That can help us have a brief idea of how alien looks, maybe some birds from a cold arctic world, or intellectual flowers living on the islands of an ocean world.

"I hope my design proposal for the Maus Mk. II goes through. Though it was designed by a dark empire from our divisive past, I see potential in the behemoth. The weapons will need to be upgraded and the hull needs a redesign, but our latest discoveries in both human and xenos science could make this beast a reality. Lighter and stronger alloys, stronger engines, better weapons, and wider treads to spread out the load-this will make this vehicle succeed where its ancestor failed. It will be the iron chariot for a new generation of crewmen which will grind our foes under it's treads. I just hope the higher brass, bean counters, bureaucrats, and commissariat will agree to the initial testing."-Capt. Killian McMurty of The 42'nd Terran Hussars.
