About the Klingon Civil War. The starbases aren't producing cultural boundaries. The ones at the start of the game never produce any and any that I build lose there boundries after one turn. Over than that it's not a bad scenario.

Yeah, any scenario with the missiles removed will have that issue (this one, both Federation/Klingon war scenarios, both Delta Quadrant scenarios). I think the ST Enterprise mod still has them working even though it has the missile removed (scary thought actually as it is the only one that seems to have crash problems).
