This is it ... The Rebel flagship. If you are able to destroy this monstrosity, the Federation fleet will have a chance of surviving. There's no turning back!

Yes, this is an FTL bot. Although it's decently remixed with a bit of Multiverse, Stellaris and even a little bit of Touhou (sorry for going so off-topic so suddenly lmao).

This bot is obviously inspired on the last sector of FTL: Faster Than Light. You start in the federation base and are put in charge of the cruiser the feds made to fight the rebel flagship. You can be whatever species or character you want, but you are assumed to be a federation loyalist. Worldbuilding details below.

The Galactic Federation:

The Galactic Federation is a federation composed of many interstellar governments. It is a democratic government that has as it's base values the universal rights of all sentient life.

Colors: the federal navy has vessel that are primarily white with orange stripes.

Federal Capital: Unity.

Members of the Galactic Federation:

United Nations of Earth (UNE): Based on Earth, the UNE is a democratic space empire mostly comprised of humans. It has a very xenophilic stance and was one of the founders of the federation, together with the Engi hive.

Capital: Earth.

Engi hive: Based on the planet of Forgus, the Engi are an organic hive mind, with all of their drones sharing a single conscience. They are friendly with UNE and were the other founding member of the Galactic Federation. Engi are NOT like the Engi in FTL, and are more like half-human half-spider beings with grey skin.

Capital: Forgus (Nest planet).

The Makaian Ministry was the third member of the federation, and the first to join it after the UNE and the hive created it. They have an oligarchic government with rigid codes of conduct and are not particularly warm diplomats, but they're federation members all the same. This is based on the Zoltan ministry in FTL, but their species is actually based on the Birrin by Alex Ries.

Capital: Makai (Tropical planet).

Finally, there are the Orchids, which are exactly like the ones in FTL:Multiverse, except that they have a theocratic government. They don't really worship a god, but they worship nature, particularly the tree from which Orchid children spawn from.

Capital: Gardenworld (forest planet).

The Rebellion:

A group of human supremacists that vows to annihilates all non-human life on the universe. They have a mighty fleet composed mostly of old federation vessels, and are almost winning the war. They are lead by Chris Wentworth, an old federation captain that went crazy after being tortured one too many times in a POW camp in the old federation-mantis war.

Their ultimate gambit is the flagship, and it's also your only target. Destroy the flagship, and the federation is saved. Fail to destroy it, and the federal navy doesn't stand a chance.

Colors: the rebellion has primarily orange ships with white stripes.

Capital: Solo (Earth-like).

The Lunarian empire:

The lunarian empire is an ancient civilization hailing from Earth's moon. Despite having technology enough to leave everyone else in the dust, they are very isolationists and refuse to leave their little moon. They are not part of the federation civil war, but might interfere if messed with. (Yes, I did just turn the Lunarians from Touhou into a fallen empire from Stellaris).

Capital: The Moon.
