I think with the context of other faction mods Diable needs a buff. Not a ship buff but a colony numbers buff. I tried Tahlan Shipworks boss faction Legio and Diable got wipe off the map like it's nothing. Even before that they never stand a chance against Hegemony. And while yes, if a player intervene they can win in Diable's name, I just feel like two to three more starter colonies could help out.
What are others' thoughts on this?
Started a new game relatively recently and within a cycle Diable had lost every single system except Outer Terminus, and within 2-3 cycles they had lost that too, being completely wiped out. They need either more land or maybe a rejig on their Nexerelin AI to maybe be less aggressive cause Scalar Tech only has one system and they're doing just fine, probably cause they don't pick fights with the Hegemony and the Persean League in my games.
