I know.... I was being pretty silly about the idea of there not being a war on the horizon either. It's just, especially with human players, doesn't it make sense to an ally you can count on when the chips are down i.e. you're getting your butt kicked major-style by some guy who opened a warp point on your system and just poured his entire fleet through.

I also don't like the idea of wasting time researching stuff when an ally has it much higher and we can trade for it

I guess it's just me, I'm not that bloodthirsty...
