Ah, I get that idea. The Second Great War should be one of heroic stands against the empire, not a quick, victory for a republic. Perhaps though a small fleet led by the alternate Carandial could be forced to flee, and joins the Republic against the empire after it is attacked. However, the alternate empire eventually drives the invaders away. I would like the alternate empire to meet the New Republic eventually, though it would be in the aftermath of the 2nd Great War. That would give me time to develop the alternate empire into a unique empire instead of just shoehorning it into the main universe. Perhaps they could join the Mou'Cyran Accords after discovering the recovering Republic and fight the Great Star Dominion or serve as a neutral force in the post-war gigaquadrant. Maybe even a short but deadly conflict, where the Republic, fearing the alternate empire is the same as the one they fought in the SGCW, and attacks them out of fear of a repeat of a Third Great Cyrannus War? As to the reason I am having trouble adding to the Dilanian Interstellar Empire is I am having difficulty coming up with unique traits of my Empire. However, I would like to enter the SGCW. My idea is that the Dilanian Interstellar Empire would send a fleet to evacuate Republic refugees. However, they are attacked by Admiral Tector Decimius, and are forced to retreat. The Serapis counterattack with the majority of their fleet, leading to a Verdun or Somme style battle where both sides fight a long quagmire until the Serapis finally retreat to preserve their fleet. That is my plan atleast. When it is completed, could I post it to the main story?
