OOC: The Sskiss have very good plasma based weaponary. Basically fires a beam of plasma for several seconds which rapidly becomes hotter until it is a beam of pure bluish/white super heated gas.

Our WMD technologies (pathogens etc...) are also very advanced.

Sskiss are expansionistic. They have already colonized a large number of worlds in 21 starsystems including their home system. Home starsystem Riiss' Sslash A, B, C & D ("Ancient Creche") - Multiple starsystem Distance from Sol: 289.7LY Riiss' Sslash A G9V primary Riiss' Sslash A II.1 ...

Fealzanthia, does it have any defensive (anti missile/fighter weaponary)?

If not, you'd better consider such measures.

My species may consider exchanging services or resources for a few eventually however.

Tithia, most spiral or barred spiral galaxies are between 25,000 to about 200,000 or so light years across. So your figure is way of the mark.

The Sskiss agree to the "visual words"* ["writing"] of the posture of "neutrality/non-aggressiveness" ["non-agreesion pact"]. * - Because the Sskiss language is partialy somantic, the Sskiss never developed a writen form of their language until the development...
