Never have been a big fan of "status" anyways. If you're going to have rules, they shoud count for everyone.

Abbout page length, that really differs from person to person. I shouldn't worry too much about it if I were you.

Lastly, the power. While it is indeed true no one can make an ultra-powerful fiction (aside from temporarily making a fiction ultra-powerful before killing them off), that does not mean you cannot build up your strength. It's one of the things I like about Zsark - he's all alone in a totally unknown new universe, without any Kashuthil aid, or indeed, with barely any active Kashuthil technology - like you tend to be after shipwrecking on an abandonned island. So it speaks for itself that Zsark needs to do with inferior, low-rate technology for the moment while building up his forces up from a scratch. After forging alliances with other, powerfull empires, he can borrow/buy their technology - thus he becomes stronger. Then, for exemple, he gets involved in a collaborative project and makes off with additional technology - like the remains of a superweapon the enemy was building. Again, that would make him stronger, little by little, until him being technologically advanced isn't a problem anymore. It's not that you can't have technologically advanced empires - you have to build them up (and that can sometimes go really fast - just llok at the Troodontid Empire).
