I Was just wondering... what is the diffrence between Khaark and Xenon.. are they on the same side...? are they both the same race...? do they know that they are both enemys of us...? and if so why dont they form an alliance...? are they enemys to each other...? and if so do they ever fight each other...? i just dont realy know mutch info on them please help me out...

But if they are working together... ooh boy... imagine a full raid of both them put together....

Xenon are enemies from the first couple of games. The Kha'ak made their entrance in X2. They aren't the same species and are enemies of each other, as well. Kha'ak, Xenon and Pirates are the three badguy factions, and will generally shoot anything that moves that isn't one of their own kind. It can be amusing to sit back and watch the three go at each other upon occasion. And often, it's also a bit lucrative in dropped cargo.

Now a full raid would be fun... Creditssss

And just think of the action.

I don't think, they are on the same side. Especially since those are two different races and the Xenon aren't really known for their talkativeness. They are programmed machines.
I don't know any part of the plot where anyone actually managed to communicate with the Xenon.
It definetely would be interesting, since Xenon and Khaak seem to be commanded by pretty much the same: A major CPU and a "Brain Bug".

I've never actually seen a Xenon attacking a Khaak or vice versa.

what about useing one of your ships as bait.. for example make Khaark follow it but not destroy it then lead it into a Xenon sector let it get destroyed and leave the Khaark in the Xenon sector to see what happens lol

Except for the fact that they won't follow you through a gate, a good idea.

You could lead a xenon taxi mission into a sector with a kha'ak invasion, I guess.

In one of my games, i think it was Z'rt's Dominion, Xenon had a convoy traveling there. I was scouting with my M7 Hyberion and some Vanguards at the Unknown Sector. Unfortunately, Kha'ak had a armada there. I just jumped back to Z'rt's Dominion and saw 2 Kha'aks scouts and 1 Figher. Eventually they did a little skirmish with the Xenon which both after brought their armies there. After a half of hour Split joined in and so did reinforcements from Xenon and Kha'ak. Somehow Terran rapid response forces jumped to there too, doing nothing in the beginning. After a Kha'ak Destroyer decides to attack a Valhalla, all hell went loose. Me with my Vanguards were retreating near to the gate. After the skirmish lasted for 2 hour total (both Xenon and Kha'ak were boring forces out from their sectors while other races brought small fleets to action too) i decided i go rampage. Just in case i damage Split, i brought some modified bombers (not really bombers) to nearby Split sector and to my owned nearby Split sectors which had nukes loaded. After the attack force jumped to Z'rt's Dominion, only thing left was my Hyberion. Luck i say, but the money i gained, i managed to buy a fleet with it.

Personally my main reason for killing Khaak invasion fleets is the vague hope that maybe the next one will happen in a sector where I can get a XI...

i was just useing the ingame script thingy.. and i created about 5 of them M1 Unknown ships and made 100s of khaark and Xenon ships and i made 100s of em in the unknown sector and they actualy do fight each other just um.. its kinda slow since i just kept spaming them everytime one died for a laugh lol i dont use it anymore but i just wanted to know if they did fight each other and they do the battle was great though =D

Wow. Is that with the Race Response Fleet script?

Yes it its. But i still wonder why did the Terran jump there. There is even some of their ships in Avarice and Last Frontier. Just sitting there. I think i just should use the Destroy cheat on them.

i've seen a very small kha'ak/xenon/pirate battle going on once

was only 1 cluster, a few xenon Ms and an L and 2 pirate falcons... lol

not sure how it started but my enemy detection satalite went mental in the wall, or the hole (i cant remember)
so i checked and behold, they'd somehow got in each others way and started killing each other.

then i jumped in and just killed them all.. lol
since i turned off RRF, i've never seen 2 hostile races in the same sector again.
but with it on, pirates kept invading argon prime, which was just annoying. lol
also running XTM btw.

Doesn't RRF have an option to set Argon & Terran to friends? I bet that makes the Terran ships jump to help Argon.

That could not be the reason as there were no Aron in Z'rt's Dominion when the battle was going on nor neither in my sector where did the Terran jump.

Let's keep the discussion about vanilla X3 in this forum, please, or we'll have to split and move this discussion over to S&M. Thanks.
