Well, only on the simulator and in one or two missions.
They could have been the terran's allies.
I would have loved to fly a Klrathi ship.
BTW will you fly something 'different' in WC: Saga?
It was a bit strange, yeah, since a large part of the game actually took place in Kilrathi space. But it makes sense in the context of the universe. The Kilrathi empire lies in ruins at that time. Much of the Kilrathi navy got destroyed when Kilrah got nuked, and a large part of the remaining forces was scrapped according to the peace treaty between the Empire and the Confederation. The rest of the forces is owned by various clans mostly; and now that there's no emperor for the empire, many clan leader claims the throne leading to a low level civil war, while other clans don't want anythin to do with the other more powerful clans and keep for themselves.
And humans and Kilrathi aren't friends by that ime by any stretch of imagination. There are warlords with raid the bordering terran colonies, Kilrathi pirates and crazy cults which aren't exactly nice to humans either.
I had the impression that the Kilrathi were only helping the Midway in WCP because they had something to gain with it.
