@Crimson: Interesting concept, though the "Undead Empire" is very generic. Also, Morphlings aren't really "dead", and ACC assimilated are kept from dying of old age/the assimilation process by their cybernetics.

Though it probably won't happen, I was also things of reworking the GMC War of Three-style and shuffeling events around a bit.
 * Year 1: The Scythe invade, targetting the Waptoria due to the rich genetic diversity in their territories plus their original motivation. Perhaps they're more a bit like the Kett (seem evil on the surface, actually have good intentions, assimilate others into Scythans). On the way, they awaken the Pseudopath, who target the Federation. In this version, the Scythe are actually running from the Scelus Horde, who were drawn to the Scythe's original home galaxy by the viral pulse Dread used to shut down the Stryptospondilus. The Scythe are defeated, the Scelus show up, tearing trough Waptorian space to reach the Persan. The Waptoria and Federation suffer badly, explaining why the Imperium could conquer them so easily. Then the ACC shows up and targets the GMSC, explaning their easy conquest too. The ones to draw the Scythe in are (of course) the Imperium of War. Caligustus told Dread of the genetic bounty that would await him once he conquered the Waptoria, though Dread privately nullifies the alliance by the end of the year.
 * Year 2: There is great unrest in the wake of the quadruple invasions. Hence the Proditkar Movement make their move, Blood Knight, Glacier ect. They get cracked down on, Anthil dies, Pridar blames Glacier, Aeba Shuka formation.
 * Year 3: War agains the Hegemony, the Darkling Brotherhood begin their corruption of the Olympians, Iyoka wakes up the Convents and the Blood Brotherhood forms proper.
 * Year 4: Caligustus contacts the Blood Brotherhood and uses them to soften up both the Proditkar and the Alliance. He then turns on them, the Olympians he giften them are revealed to be Darkling-corrupted, the Waptoria, Federation and GMSC fall. The Imperium is stopped above Kodalore, Festival and Zarbania.
 * Imperium gets pushed back, Rebel Consuls, Draekar and Troodontids show up, Cali dies and the Imperium collapses. The end.
