Of course, I am so busy blasting pirates out of the sky that I might have missed them...

I am sort of looking forward to them being a menace...

All I've seen of them are the abandoned ships found in the graveyards.

Now that is absolutely true...
And since I set those guys up with Romulan ships... I am finding Romulan ships all over the galaxy.    Which reminds me, I found a bunch of older, but cool looking Romulan ships that I will have to upload when I get back to a fast computer.
 
Well Elliot, if you are perusing the boards, can you let us know?

When I was exploring the galaxy on my personal exploration ship, when, i've discovered a great secret: The Shakturi Alliance

In the text it says that long ago, that the Freedom Alliance where being overwhelmed, and that they where developing a Virus to destroy the Shakturi. And in in a fierce battle, they launched the virus in the space, killing hundreads of Shakturis and they'r allies, and mutating more hundreads.

The Virus was powerful enought to kill even the Freedom alliance crew members, making all these ship graveyard that all of us seen. Also the Giant Kaltors where originated by this virus.

But I think something is missing in DW.....Radiation.

So in essence, we will never see these guys.
I was rather hoping that they were sort of like the Borg and whatever the SW equivalent is... what are they Yuzzen Vorn or some such thing.

I also had this impression when I first started playing. Perhaps it is planned for the expansion or a future expansion.

Some obvious questions: do you have those events turned on?

I have not encountered them yet either, but I figured I was not far enough along in the game. Right now, the Republic under Chancellor Palpatine and the CIS under Count Dooku are making me fight for my life.

But they have a nice high war weariness.

Yeah, I thought as much. I have my sciences set WAY longer than most people, so I though that would slow them up a bit.

My biggest challenge is the fuel situation... I do not need any crazed homocidal manaical Shakturi to make things challenging at the moment.
