Further on the Miscellaneous feature front, might you consider adding a quest line that allows for the restoration of The Great Houses of Kassadar as a fully fledged faction?
It'd be a really cool thing to be able to do, and would make the Kassadar start option more rewarding in the long run.

As far as I'm aware, it would just need to transfer the current independent world to them and removed the 'claimed by Kassadar' debuff from the worlds in the system when completed.

People have been asking for that for quite a while (literal years, if I'm not wrong), to the point where there's a section of the FAQ specifically dedicated to respond to that. One of the main reasons Nia hasn't done it (and most probably won't ever do it) iirc is because it doesn't make sense lore wise (it's a dying polity, isolated far from a dying core worlds with precious little industry to get back on their feet after all).

Only answer you'll get from that suggestion won't be a positive one, I'm afraid.

That's fair. I'd missed that one.

I'd argue that the constraints given simply make the quest chain longer and more complex, possibly involving re-colonising the system, building out industries, establishing self-sufficiency, warding of threats, recovering lost ships, blueprints, and the like.
A single upstart with good ideas and someone, the player, to do the massive amount of grunt work required, could potentially achieve something.

I'm not saying that it should be done, only that there are ways to make it work if you wanted to, even given the core lore of Kassadari as a failing polity.

Yeah, but that seems to be the point really: Nia doesn't want to. And since they haven't budged on that since the beginning, I don't think there's much to be done here.

Yeah. And that's totally okay.

I responded as such before addressing the other point you made about lore reasons, to which I was again saying it could be worked around, not it should.

Since you brought up "Miscellaneous Features"
Curious if you would be interested in adding a start option for the Jagdregallia ship thing that unlocks those.
Mainly cuz even knowing it's found in Black Holes I've still only found the damn thing once >.<

So as another little hint: the Halbmond will, in my experience, spawn around a gravity well/major landmark in the black hole systems. This can include asteroid fields and stable points, however, and might even be (I think?) at points inside an asteroid belt or ring system. So you don't even need the Neutrino Scanner, you just need to thoroughly check every point of interest in a BH system to be sure the Halb isn't there.

Also remember that, especially if the generated sector is short on black holes, the Halbmond can spawn in any pre-existing black hole systems added by other mods. I've had it appear in the Prester John system generated by HMI Supervillains and the Alicia system generated by HMI Brighton before. So make sure to investigate those too!

I still miss our glorious king, the Great Houses Dun Scaith. Only on a single playthrough did I realize that what I thought was an okay ship (there's a lot of capital competition in the modisphere) could be turned into a missile gunboat. It was my favorite, by far, capital out of anything in the game.

The Dun Scaith is still available as a bounty target (one-of-a-kind, sure; but what can ya do)... but getting it requires defeating a Legio Infernalis fleet stuffed to the gills with Daemons (that scale accordingly to your own fleet, at least in terms of s-mods).
