I don't know. I don't have that much experience
with Sa'Vasku to know what contributes to the 
sense of doom you get when you see those shadow-
lookalikes setup on the other side of the board.
Perhaps it's just that there are more than the
usual number of min-max exploitations available.
When points increase, the Sa'Vasku seem to 
increase in power faster than other races. In
one small game I played in which my ally was 
Sa'Vasku the points seemed to balance ok (I
came out on top with one small ship left with
4 boxes of hull remaining and almost no systems
capable of operation), but any larger game
we've played has been a rout.
