Cidi first contact, question 1

When did the Solar Cooperative or United Space Authority first encounter the Cidi?

1. Quite early on, around the 2120s to 2140s.

2. Circa the 2150s, possibly during the Romulan War.

3. In the 2160s.

4. In the 2170s, before the Unification Wars.

5. Not until the Unification Wars began (which narrows the question of how that contact went).


Please include the number of your preferred option when you vote, and the date if there's an exact year you find appropriate.


I'm currently thinking that they first met Cidi in roughly human-scale (SM+0, or at least, somewhere between SM-1 and SM+1) encounter-mechs, and thought that they were either an AI race or a vaguely normal sized organic race that breathed a different atmosphere, only discovering what the Cidi really looked like later on. Does this look like a good idea? Please answer either YES in all-caps or NO in all-caps.

Answer: The Cidi were first encountered by the Solar Cooperative in the 2150s, specifically *rolls 2d-2* 2158, so part-way through the Romulan War. Since YES clearly won, they were met while they were using their encounter mechs, and their true form was only discovered later.
