Thanks!

I completely agree.

However, the problem is that the Clanden Admiralty will never really be able to match up to the scale of other empires (unless they build a plethora of gigantic death-star like space-stations, which is really unrealistic). The armada can only support a fraction of a planet's worth of individuals due to the lack of space and resources (food, water, etc), while the ships themselves are not exactly in prime condition.

Essentially, unless they settle down and expand, they will almost always remain a little annoying bleep on the occasional outpost's radar.

Do you have any ideas as to how I could do differently?

More importantly, do you want to collaborate on a fiction?
