Also, when they were good guys, they were extremely powerful, and helped the UAE out of many a jam. I have no intention of downplaying their power now. At this point in the story, the Scythe have defeated and absorbed their former empire, making them entirely the equal of their foes the ACC. The Pseudopath has rejoined with all of its splinter groups, turning it into a very powerful, but very hate-filled empire.

What keeps them from being overpowered is the fact that this Covenant you describe seems quite powerful as well. I do believe that even if the Scythe and Pseudopath could not defeat them entirely, they certainly could do a good job of humbling the Covenant a bit. Also, both empires do still like the Zarbania Powers and UPD. It should also be noted that the Scythe was originally a supporter of the Triumvirate, but abandoned it because they thought their interests were not being properly represented.

The good guys have won every single story set in Mirus. Maybe the bad guys should have a shot at victory.

Not true. The Mirusian Conflicts were defenitely a win for the bad guys. Sure, the Imperium of War has been crushed, but at what cost? The Alliance has been set into decay, Zaraturai is gone, Eternal War has more or less been realized and the Brotherhood of Darklings has come out as the big victor (just as planned).

The Covenant is like...what...the unification of half of the galaxy? That's more than the Alliance, the Tyranny or even the Tralor, who only managed to get a quarter of it.

Half of the galaxy against two empires, no matter how powerful, is not going to go very well in the end. However their weapons do sound crazily powerful and that might give them a headstart, especially if the former Alliance wasn't aware of them.

Plus, Patriot's new empire, the Bacaanian Eternal Empire, seems like a very good ally. They're pretty much a pretty much an Scythian-Yeniseian-Turco-Mongol nomadic empire but then with aliens and opposed to both the Covenant of Mirus and the Avalôtur Covenant. They're quite powerfull as well, so if the three of them ally together, then the chances will turn in their favor for even longer. (What is mean with that is MOAR DAKKA!)
