    The Kilrathi, of COURSE!  Take a look at the operating proced's of
Starfleet.  They wait until their shields are at 5% before they start
firing, at which point they have about 2 shots before their "phaser
relays" burn out.  They also have that stupid prime directive.  That
means they wouldn't even consider destroying an ENTIRE PLANET to win a
war!  I think that the WC book "Fleet Action" shows what the UFP would
have happen to them.  They would be more than happy to go for peace,
then get toasted when the new "ally" attacked. Confed all the way!
