Very true. I'm playing a TDM Modpack game. I'm the Ukra-Tal, and the Aquilaeians took an instant dislike to me. Same atmosphere. I've got my core systems fortified, and I raided their territory, conquering two systems and then losing them again, twice. At the same time I've gained, lost and now regained two fringe systems. And so it goes.

They are a dying race. I will let them be. I must prepare for the coming storm. The Vikings refuse all treatys, and the Cue Cappa and Albion have dreadnoughts everywhere. I don't have the mineral resources for master computer ships. Yet.
