Rodina Planetary System | Stellaris Invicta

[@TemplinInstitute]

Hey folks! What did you think of this episode? Would you like to see us cover more elements of Stellaris Invicta in the manner of our regular episodes? Let us know! And don't forget, our next live stream starts in an hour! www.twitch.tv/templininstitute

[@SleightCreative]

As someone who has a race in Invicta, my answer is YES YES YES

[@jebediah8504]

MORE!

[@novaexplorer2397]

All of the YES!

[@JohnnyElRed]

Yes, please! More of this.More backstory and lore from the GTU.

You need more tracksuits because you get less showers. Resource rationing has never applied to high fashion.

Yes! Please! More worlds from Invicta. There is a lot of potential storytelling here.

This is truly a greatly built universe, heck, we could even get video-games happening within such universe... Or RPGs. And movies. With Hans Zimmer's music.

[@jlassijlali290]

i love this spin off series! GTU my favourit story!

[@Radonatorr]

Russian named star system, with New Moscow as its capital and heavy industry as a key part of its economy. With Polish named neighbour (Vistula System), which has a Fleet Station named after Tadeusz Kościuszko, Polish national hero and leader of an anti-Russian uprising. Sweet xD

Rodina is Russian for Motherland.

In czech and slovak language it means family.

Aw man. I made up a faction of late-WWII USSR based imperial militia for my warhammer army and their home planet is named Rodina (meaning motherland in Russian). Now I feel like I plagiarized.

The GTU is the master of terraforming planets to suit their needs, there isn't a single planet with atmosphere that hasn't been colonized across the entire Union. Even as we speak, human and Wessari citizens are colonising the Tropical worlds taken from the Vol Hive in the previous war. With so many planets and systems. With so much history in Stellaris Invicta, I would love to see you cover more about it. Though, with so much of it, I don't know if you'll be able to keep up. But hey, I've been wrong before ;)

[@aerilum]

Your Stellaris Invicta series is just pure awesomeness, thank you. Great example of how you can build a great story based on gameplay, it really inspires me to write down some stories based on my plays, or start a new one and notice all the small details and build upon them. Althought, you could work on pronounciation of Russian-based names. It's generally OK, but you tend to put stress on the wrong syllables. For example, in word Rodina there should be stress on the first syllable - ROdina (Homeland). Same for NOvaya MoskVA (New Moscow). It's a minor thing, really, yet I do believe that you strife for perfection.

[@undead9999]

we are all here talking like this is some very distant future, while we don't realize our grandchildren (my generation's grandchildren, at least, I'm 28) might very well experience the first extrasolar colony, same as the ww1 veterans' grandchildren went to the moon. If you think about it it is not a stretch by any means. I surely hope to be still alive to see the beginnings of space exploration.

[@gaspardduclos5203]

Sorry but this is unrealistic. Interstellar travel requires a large space infrastructure and large quantities of energy. It also needs a large ship with thousands of people and robots. Any attempt at extrasolar colonization is a strain of ressources and technology. The space infrastructure required certainly won't exist until the beginning of the 22th century, and even then it would take decades for the ship to travel to the nearest stars and decades to build the colony. So at best the first extrasolar colony will exist in the 23th century.

[@nayandusoruth2468]

Whilst I can understand your general optimism, I doubt extra solar colonisation will occur within the next few centuries at least (assuming FTL isn't found to be possible). I say this, because our solar system is already a massive resource rich place, with vast amounts of energy (I remember seeing a rough estimate, that with the energy output of the sun, we could sustain 10^20 people in a Dyson swarm). Even whilst we may get the technology for viable interstellar travel in the next century (hell, if we're willing to use nukes, we can achieve a few % light speed with modern tech), other star systems are VERY far away, and due to sub light speed limitations, extrasolar colonies will be practically impossible to administer, or extract economic value from beyond scientific data, making extrasolar colonisation a low profitability high risk (extremely long term) endeavour. Thus, I can only see us beginning interstellar colonisation once we start approaching the carrying capacity of the solar system (taking current 1.05% world population growth, we'll get there in 1500 years assuming exponential growth). Before we reach the carrying capacity of the solar system, the only things that we'd send out might be scientific probes, or the odd filthy rich cult or religious group deciding they want to try their luck in interstellar space.

[@Nomenius1]

I'm waiting for the day when video games themselves generate stories with the level of detail and wonder that this gives me. Great job you guys

[@TheIfifi]

"Novia moskva" I can only wonder which one of out favorite Templin-Institute operative named that... I wonder if we have any such operatives with a notorious fascination for the soviet union...

[@marcbartuschka6372]

Well at first Moskva/Moscow is of course not just the capital of the USSR as you surely know - it was russian capital, too before Peter the Great build St. Petersburg, and remained important even after that. There is a reason why the capital stayed there also after the fall of the USSR. And I think a futuristic human society would be not wrong to pay as done in this case respect to many different cultures/nations - among them of course on a prominent place the nation who at first put an unmanned and later a manned artifical object into Earth Orbit etc.

[@doom7ish]

well, lets start. Rodina. Emphasis on 1st vowel, means Home World aka Motherland Volga. River, used by vikings and slavs in trade with Byzantium. Volgagrad=Stalingrad Novaya Moskva (Novaya, emphasis on O; Moskva, emphasis on A)=New Moscow (maybe reference to Moscow City) Prokophyev. See 1st, 5th and 7th symphonies, if you want to be more educated in classic music of 20th century (very powerful, easy to understand, a bit repetitive).

Are we getting more about the hard-boiled detective Larissa in her hunt for Water criminals?

[@marcinmarszaek3813]

Fleshing out the lore of Stellaris Invicta is super cool, and I am very curious to see what you will cover next. The Algan Republic and their allies in the Compact, The Florian Matriarchy and their subsequent Invasion, or honestly literally anything from the campaign would be interesting to find out. Whatever it is, I cant wait to see how everything will go, and what the coming crisis's will bring, but in the end Humanity will make it through. Terra Invicta, Glory to Mankind!!!

[@musafawundu6718]

Why are there so many anti Russian comments? The Greater Terran Union is obviously vast enough to permit there being many highly socio economically and technologically developed sub-national entities within it that that are predominantly based on just about any presently existing country or ethnicity on Earth today. I love the fact that Stellaris Invicta is not American or European centric, but allows for much featuring of all regions of Earth. The GTU while retaining unity, still has its citizens retain conciousness and pride of Earth borne historic origins and positive aspects of such cultures.

[@mrsaltyauthor5992]

could there be a compilation of all the stellaris invicta art? Love that you guys put up the artists who designed it but I always struggle to find the ones you use for invicta. Also yes please more of these!

Rodina = Family in Czech, Poland and Slovakia

[@ImperativeGames]

It's the common root, "rod" (roughly "bloodline") what makes it happen, because slavic people were basically one people - "narod" - a thousand year ago or so. In Russian "rodnya" means "relatives", "rodstvennyiy" - "related", and so on.

[@dubuyajay9964]

It is said that at the Capital Square of Rodina is a statue of the famed Shashlik King of the ancient Life of Boris channel. And upon its plaque reads the commissariat sector's motto. The rough translation from the Russian being, "Keep it cheeki breeki."

I'd go with the Unbidden. They're the most powerful of the End Game Crisis and can seriously threaten everything the GTU has worked hard for. It could also challenge the GTU's pride by forcing it to work with the rest of the galaxy, and that means cooperating with former and current enemies.
