I'm fine with that, as long as the rest of whomever is reading this doesn't mind.

The Kzin result seems slightly less likely; a total rollback seems like it would need a longer war that had a degree of occupation. Disarmament is plausible as written, but the protectorate status is questionable.
Hmm. Good point. I was going with the idea of 'short shooty periods and longer periods of political tension,' but I may have gone too far.

So, the question is:
Should I make the war that started in 2179 longer (which also helps with the Orions), or should I reduce the penalties that the Kzin are under?

EDIT: OK, I'll make the war longer.
