The Kzin Wars writeup is taking longer than I'd like, but it occurred to me that there's a question that I should ask at some point, so it may as well be now:

TGLS pointed out that the Gormelites and the Nausicaans fit the same narrative niche, so I'm wondering if they should both be in this setting, or only one of them. If both, some work is needed to distinguish them, like the Gormelites maybe still being stuck on their own planet, and/or perhaps being a subject race of the Kzin, or a 'client' race of the Orions or Kaa. What do you think?
