5. No. They're intended to replace treaties, and the alliance is suppose to act as a single "empire" for diplomatic purposes as far as I can tell.

6. Yes and yes. See the Balance Mod for an example of how to do this. The display is a bit buggy though (the plants clip in and out of each other)

7. There's a text file that determines it. In stock, pretty much like it did in SEIV.

8. No. Go figure.

9. No idea.

The default fleet experience effects are much smaller in SE5.
No more +50% legendary.
It maxxes out at +10% in stock SE5

But you can, in theory, throw any ability you like in there, not just to-hit modifiers.

Hmmm. Checked out that text file; experience only improves ability to hit.

You should take a look at the SFTC (or SFTC-Lite they are the same file) if you are looking for a few ideas.

10) This is just silly, but how do you get a ship with a Beta Displacement Pulser (storm killer) to move into a sector with a damaging storm? I turned off all the "don't move into xxx" options I could find but it seems my ship won't go into that storm no matter what I do.

11) Are there any effects of using a captured ship with respect to the crew being of a different race?

12) Is it possible to change the crew to a different race, assuming I have different races in my empire?
