If I may insert my perspective here, I think one of the problems with our map is that we don't have many if any NPC factions on it. We should probably have several NPC factions that are in a constant state of turmoil and war around Yamatai. Places that provide a world of adventure. I think that by absorbing them into the larger factions, we loose the spice that they give us. I've mentioned this before, but we should have an 'independents' FM. While they would not have a responsibility for promoting independent RP in the same way the other FMs would. They would have responsibility for the NPC factions and everything not covered by another faction. We could then spin off from the main factions groups like the Phods and other minor races. Putting them on the map so they get seen and hopefully used. Looking at the map, I think we've absorbed too much into our main groups.
What would this mean for the ASE? They become a NPC faction, put into the portfolio of the 'independents' FM, and perhaps given a bigger splash of color on the map. Then they lay dormant but present until someone wants to do something with them.
Regardless, I think they should stay a separate faction.
