So long as you're prepared for the complications that'll bring storywise I'm all for it

Sweet, lol. But yeah, I’m expecting the Malevolence’s appearance in Republic Space to be something of a brown pants moment for [i]both[/i] sides of equation. Depending on where in the timeline this universe is (pre or post Malevolence), things could be more or less simple. Probably the biggest thing that can help quell potential hostilities is the fact that letting the Replicators go free os hardly in the Separatists’ favor either, and if this is post-Malevolence, people will know that ship shouldn’t exist still, so that will be a good way to sell that, yeah, this isn’t business as usual.

But overall, yes, I expect complications will be inherent and probably funny. I especially look forward to the Jedi reaction to a Sith that isn't pathologically obsessed with killing them... not that the Sith will probably receive the same courtesy without some level heads acting as first contact. To say nothing of Grevious's presence and his entire cargo bay of issues. XD
