Invictus coat of arms
5 Bees and a Shuttle on a blue background symbolising industry, 2 black millrinds symbolising engineering and a ship symbolising the significance of waterways to the alliance. 2 rampant lions and a griffon atop represent power. The broad arrow and the boar symbolise further strength.

Background
Invictus is one of the oldest alliances in Illyriad. The alliance has always been characterised by teamwork and standing up for the little guy. Cooperation and good relations with many of the alliances in Illyriad have allowed the alliance to prosper and grow. The alliance follows a Roman Senatorial style system of government allowing all players to have a say and the administration to carry out that which feels to be most popular and good sense at the same time.
Recruitment
Invictus is always recruiting good and honest folk and essentially recruits players who are mature in approach and seek diplomatic solutions before combat. We ask that anyone wanting to join the alliance first has a minimum population of 450 and then contact Eval answering the following series of questions:
- Have you read our alliance page? (You'd be amazed that many applications come from those who haven't!)
- What attracted you to Invictus above any other alliance when you were considering your options?
- What would you describe your playing style as?
- What are your aims in the game?
- What would being an active participant in an alliance mean to you?
- Are you prepared to be an active member within the alliance? We have an activity rule of 15 days for those below 10,000 population and 21 days for those above. If you are inactive for more than that stipulated amount of time we will be at liberty to remove you from the alliance and if you are inactive for over 30 days your resources and towns will be used for the benefit of the alliance.
Diplomacy
As previously mentioned we prefer to seek diplomatic solutions before undertaking direct action. Invictus adheres to the 10 square rule for harvesting or settling cities unless an agreement has been negotiated. If you feel that a member of Invictus has wronged you or your alliance please contact Eval and explain the situation. If you are an individual or alliance in distress then feel free to contact us and we will try to help where possible. If you would like to sign a Non Aggression Pact or Confederacy then contact us to discuss your proposal - if you do not contact us and just make a diplomatic offer we will politely refuse your request.
And Finally
