Speaking of long term technological projects- you inherited the long term empire goal founded by Eoba II- the creation of a <span class="mu-i"><span class="mu-s">Threemind</span></span>. The Threemind is a secret project to combine Jaxtian, Haazar, and Baalathi computing to create an ultimate, unbreakable AI computer base for your entire empire.
The Threemind is <span class="mu-i"><span class="mu-s">two thirds complete</span></span>. With the work of Ingar I and Ingar II, two thirds of the computing base has been constructed. The only missing piece is Baalathi technology. Eoba II and his brother and right hand, Kimnan II made great strides to secure a Baalathi computing core- but there is the matter of the homeworld.
Even now- taking a look at your neighboring sectors of space, the Baalathi homeworld seems to remain independent. Due to the nature of their expansion, their technology has probably not advanced much... but this is the homeworld we are talking about. There is a good chance you could complete the Threemind project by stealing whatever computing technology you find there. Plus, taking over the Baalathi cluster of space would be a tempting prize. It remains about 80 light years away, or 80 months with FTL travel.
There is also the matter of <span class="mu-i"><span class="mu-s">Haazar space</span></span>. The Haazar refugees that came to your system did so to flee the Baalathi expansion- the Haazar in their own systems have probably been extinct for centuries. As such, their space is likely controlled by Baalathi. It remains 50 light years away.
Eoba II did great work in expanding your empire- but with such small and regional powers up for the taking nearby, it may be a good idea to expand into nearby local clusters that you can; considering all your other neighbors are so much larger. The Consortium and Esaal especially!
With your newfound Crusiers, you could probably destroy any opposition remaining in these systems with a single warfleet- given the Baalathi's technological stagnation. But, would it be worth it? These two clusters remain far enough away to be isolated from your core worlds. Years long space flight, even with FTL, really limits your options for colonization and expansion even with the suspension gene. Plus, your military would be weakened and slow to respond in the event of a surprise attack by the mysterious Cyte... not that you know where they are, or even what they are.
