Problem is how to tell such a story using the framing devices given by FS gameplay.
Something that I feel has yet to be explored in regards to Terran unification is the effect this will have on the Vasudans. In most scenarios they are doing much better than the Terran militarily and economically. How will they react to becoming, almost overnight, a minority power within the alliance? Would the Vasudans want a reunited Terran race seen as this would put them at a massive disadvantage in the event of the Terrans becoming more Xenophobic (a strong possibility given recent history).
Some of my personal ideas have the voting block being split 3 ways between Earth, the Assembly and the Imperium but with special voting privileges being granted to the Vasudans as well as a priority given to finding worlds suited to Vasudan habitation in order to appease disgruntled the Terrans disgruntled Vasudans but this could also be a vehicle for introducing a conflict storyline in to reunification.
(sorry if this post is a mess but I am getting ready for work and had to type this quick)
Good points. Hadn't considered how the Vasudans would take this sudden shift in power. It's a dynamic worth at least mentioning.
