Even if the empire is large I never use that for my advantage nor do I try to push other people around because of it.... if it's OP then at this point I say so be it.... I really don't care about the power off a faction as long as you don't abuse it.

On another note I planned to have the empire be like the old Russian empire which even though the largest power of it's time with the same unstoppable numbers was beat all the time by smaller nations for a variety of reasons. I'm not saying I will allow a small one planet nation to defeat the empire but I'm saying a small nation can in essences take on the empire with varied success.

I have also been asking for a long time for the empire to have more enemies to balance things out and have been working on a rebellion within the empire to further help to weaken it. Of course none of this will make the empire unbelievable weak and a pushover (I could never do that to any of my factions) but it will not be the most powerful in many, many sectors.

And a note on the scourge, yes they could have been driven out swiftly but they where a dedicated and rather large assault force in one specific spot in an empire that is spread out thin so the scourge actually if they moved around at least a little could have been a major problem for years while the empire was frantically trying to amass a fleet to fight them. It's not just OP. The Precursors were OP. This is something an a whole new scale. To give you an idea, I am fairly certain that mankind has not invented a name for a number high enough to describe the population of the Rin Empire at this size.

You can't compare the two in any real shape or form. That was old earth, this is a sci do scenario, with loads of advancements. You can't apply the same principles of thought here.

That doesn't really change much. For example, I have the Razorbird Empire mostly surrounded by folks that hate them, yet Edacnik still constantly gives me crap. Being surrounded by enemies does not change the fact that you are immense and seemingly almighty. Nobody could ever beat the Rin. It is impossible.

Unless you're small enough, or they are at the time large enough, that is what the Scourge do, moving from sector to sector, assimilating the populous and gaining momentum as they go. 1. noted

2. I am trying to show a point.

3. I have been trying to give the Rin more enemies.... no one seems to pay attention to the updates that nerf the empire.

4. Which is everyone's factions for the most part.

Everyone else could you please leave, not trying to be rude or anything but this is between me and Eureka. Please and thank you.
