Terra Invicta Guide – Alien threat level (and how to avoid total war)

For many players of Terra Invicta – the 2020s end in a positive fashion. You probably have a few good nations under control, you’ve got a space economy running, and your technological development should be proceeding well.

Then, sometime in the late ’20s or ’30s, the aliens start changing their behaviour, they start launching retaliation attacks, and from there many players struggle to out-build the damage.

The trick behind this, which the game explains (but not loudly or well enough) is that the aliens are willing to tolerate some actions by humanity, but more than that invites measured retaliation – and if you provoke them too heavily, they will continue to strike back in response.

In this video, I talk through the alien threat/hate mechanic and how you can manage it in order to stay (mostly) under their radar until you’re prepared to challenge them openly.
