Hmm... I see. That sounds unfortunate. [s]Time to go edit the Alarai to have hundreds of thousands of massive dreadnought ships. [/s]

Although I will say this: the Alarai will never become the aggressor in any conflict. Conflict just isn't in their nature, and in all practicality they have very little reason to fight over anyone. They're pretty much fine with people setting up cities on Atlantis if they want, considering that to them the surface is desolate wasteland on which none of their kind can live. Even if there is a planet dispute over colonies, they can just agree that they get the oceans and the other party gets the land.
