But it would propably had been in vain!

Hard to say... the Kilrah empire is somewhat large, and even altough Roanon had already build some warp line "highways", it would have taken him some time to react to the attack. So with enough initial combat victories you *might* have been able to send enough planets into riot to severely hurt his economy - this would have affected the whole Alliance. Eg my empire was totally dependend on the trade incomes from Kilrah. Major cutbacks would have sent my empire into chaos, and would have hurt my military strength *very* badly...

On the other hand, Roanon was producing 30 *baseships* and 40 battleships *per turn*! According to your words, it would have taken at least 3 more turns until the first strikes, maybe more (3-8 turns you said IIRC). Let's assume 5 turns, that would have been 150 baseships and 200 battleships, in addition to his already immense armada.

Not to count my own fleet, and of course several hundred talisman-equipped battlecruisers and battleships of Nyxian.

Well, you're probably right. Chances for the Alliance of Free Worlds would have been slim anyway...
