Actually, that's a question I've been meaning to ask... in early (IE, before my joining... early to me!) star army, the SMX had translators (wierd humanoid pink things with funny accents) who asked for the surrender of the star army. YOu also refer to them as a "slaver" race. Do the SMX have any races under their control as slaves, warriors, food etc? Or is that a bit too forward to ask, as we haven't discovered any yet?
