Remember how the Quannies were divided into the green and black? That's how the Axiom and Alliance should be -- however, imagine some member races being "brown" Ur-Quan... lending ships to the faction that does the battling as well as participating in the diplomatic aspects. Such races would be members of both the Axiom and Alliance. I figure that this would appeal to the Spathi, who'd rather not battle, as well as races such as the Ilwrath, who'd prefer ONLY to battle.
What does such a peaceful sector need a battle fleet for? Who knows? But there's obviously races which feel it does. The Axiom actually proposes to be in charge of advancing the "civilization" of the member species -- focusing on the arts, sciences, and philosophy. As this shows, there are obviously charges other than just the Military and Political types, and I believe they should be discussed and divided.
This is an OOC post, by the way, meant merely to explain the concept -- even to those damned stubborn Shofixti
Also, excellent job everyone, I'm having a blast (though I probably won't be posting later today and early tomorrow as I'll be out of town). Keep up the good work! I'm really interested to see where this Orz thing goes... where are you Azolero?!
