See you in the ‘verse, pilot! THE PROUD HISTORY OF INVICTUS LAUNCH WEEKInvictus marks the beginning of the new year for UEE Navy recruits and celebrates the graduation of the latest crew members and officers. The event’s origins date back to 2541 and the First Tevarin War, when locals would gather to celebrate new recruits leaving to defend Humanity. Today, Invictus Launch Week is celebrated in most UEE systems with high-flying public demonstrations from the Naval fleet. As an added attraction, the galaxy’s top shipbuilders showcase the vehicles they supply to the military and make their civilian counterparts available to rent and purchase. The UEEN is aware that many citizens also attend Drake DefenseCon, a shadow event strategically hosted in the same week as Invictus. This year, the UEE has made the firm decision not to allow events and propaganda that mock the brave members of our Navy and our long-standing traditions that celebrate our efforts to protect civilized space. As such, we inform all attendees that we have placed a ban on Drake Interplanetary exhibiting solo in Area18; however, some Drake ships will still be available to rent at the Invictus showroom as a compromise. Invictus Launch Week has more than enough excitement, technology, and comradery for all. |
