Drop the longing to make humans juggernauts in the RP and simply go with the idea that every faction is more or less capable of great destruction. Unless you have someone in this RP trying to waltz in here with cannons that fire singularities and starship armor comprised of pure neutron star matter, everyone is more or less going to be on the same playing field.Once a civilization achieves FTL technology and has the ability to traverse planetary systems with relative simplicity, you're looking at a species that can throw around firepower in excess of the teraton range.War with care is all I say.

why assume FTL means actual movement? What if the FTL doesn't even move anything at all in terms of activation? (Speed I. FTL not correlating to speed in Real space) Sure it's still a nice way to deliver a warhead super quick in theory (I find it amusing how in a RP with honorable warrior races there's also space bound bomb everything from orbit folks like you or me), but why the teraton talk?
