[quote=@Hael] [@Ozerath] The Commonwealth has made a huge mistake if they attempt to "nab Xim space". As my N.S. (which is coming in a few hours, everyone) will show, the Xim have the [b]weakest[/b] invasion forces in the entire galaxy (hence why they couldn't hurt the Federation and probably never will), but the strongest defense. Of all the nations, I would daresay that the Xim are the most difficult to invade. Don't get me wrong, you could wipe out a Xim offensive like it was a mosquito, but you would get crushed if you approached one of their planets. Their ships are pathetic in every way, but more than ships defend them. If it doesn't sound to OP of me to say this, your ships wouldn't stand a chance the moment they entered Xim space. Now, stay OUT of Xim space and you could utterly destroy anything they send at the Federation, but the moment you're on the Xim's turf, you're going to start losing badly. [hr] Of course, I don't blame you for making that mistake, as I don't have an NS up yet. Sorry :lol [/quote] So, basically, it's like fighting Russia. Fight them off their turf and win, fight them on their turf and you've done goofed. [quote=@Queen Raidne] Done. Updated based on current answers.

Refer to form HC-HU65 for further displays of affection. Yes. Well. No. There are custom-made rules for each member state to keep them in check, but each member state was appropriately satiated before the edicts went into effect through Adjustment Teams. Furthermore, there are three general laws: 1. Don't be unreasonable. 2. Don't destroy the Coalition without proper approval. 3. Don't attack fellow Coalition members. The third law has been interpreted to mean that no Coalition member may be captured for the purposes of enslavement within Coalition space unless local law says otherwise.

If the Coalition has contact with the civilization in question, most people can see past that sort of thing.
