MarVin, according to the game and documentation it's Voinians , not Voinans, the Igazra is a vessel that belongs to the Igadzra , And it's Azdgari , not Azgari or Azdara or whatever. It's also Zidagar , not Zidara.

If in doubt, do what the smart set do - abbreviate, and avoid looking like a fool.
Refer to the strand civilisations as the Iggies, Ziddies and Aggies.
Refer to the belligerent race to the galactic west as the Voinies.
(Note - this probably annoys the hell out of them.)
All I need now is a name for the UE folks. Humies? Ach, all you Earthlings look the same to me...

hmmmm........ why should you care how people spell the damn races? As long as everyone knows what they're talking about, it doens't matter. I had no idea how to spell the races until very recently, but I don't recall any ******* yelling at me about it.

My mother always said computer people were impolite and crass. I should send this post to her as proof. She always was right, the dear lady. It's too bad my father killed her in that drunken stupor of his...
So as I was saying I think a lot of thought went into the names of the Strands. I think it's so clever that they are all anagrams of each other, essentially, and that they all seem related in some way. Wow....
(just a little sarcasm)
------------------
Okay, just so you know, each of the strands has a unique ship with a name based on the name of the race. For the Zidagar, it's the Zidara. For the Igadzra, it's the Igazra. For the Adzgari, it's the Azdara. (I know the strands have other ships too, but these ships are totaly unique: not based on any other ship class.)
