Sorry if I didn't go in greater details about the rebellion, but the way I saw it was a surprising development and a dangerous one as people would rarely hatch a plot like this if they didn't think they could win. The local forces are overwhelmed and it isn't Konev who jumps at the chance but he is called to hold the line while a real battlegroup, made of humans of course, is able to be assembled. Basically, Konev's xeno troops were supposed to be an expendable speed bump. Only the Crayvens were good enough to actually deal with the mutiny by themselves before the main force arrived.

I'd imagine this would make for an awkward situation since Konev was technically assigned to deal with the rebellions, its just that his superiors assumed that the cheap Crayven troops would fail spectacularly against a real trained human force. As such I'd think afterward his situation would be weird within high command, but they couldn't just call it treason or a mistake from him.

Btw, it would be worth considering what the nature of the mutiny was, I think maybe we could work together on that [@Liotrent] ? Democrats or what not. It could also be worth considering, since my Xeno General Lucretia is plotting her own things that maybe the leadership of the rebellion or some of their forces could have been spared in an obvious manner. Escape shuttles that could have easily been destroyed but Craven ships are ordered to hold their fire in the middle of the battle, just to make sure they could rebuild later.

And further more, the opinion of Konev on xenos: Every race has its place, its just that the place of humans happens to be on top in leadership roles while xenos work better in other fields. Extremely racist, probably more than others even, but who would accept making concessions to xenos in order to rally them under his cause, which is to become emperor and is driven only by personal ambitions and little else.
