Buchanan appears to be thinking.
"Yes...yes...that would work. We have fleets to spare, so I know that we can put them to good use. I could send a mixed fleet to protect your homeworld if you wanted, and other smaller defense fleets can do patrols (under your jurisdiction) to ensure your security. If you have a shortage of materials, we can send you a good amount to help you recover, as we have vast surpluses. We can also exchange technologies. For example, since I'm not sure if you use this technology, but our newer ship models utilize plasma weapons, as well as engines and antigraves, the latter being a room that can move a ship using no engines. (note: that's Archon's Plasma Mod, I upgraded it.) So yes, I think that a formal alliance would allow for great economical prospering for both our civilizations. He takes a deep breath. Wow, I'm out of breath."
