If I dominate a planet, will I expreience any adverse effects in regard to space bar missions? More specifically, I mean if I dominated a planet before ever visiting the space bar where there would have been a mission waiting for me, would it then become unavailable. Also, do other things affect the potential of receiving missions such as rating, choice of ship, and etc?
Thanks.

They become hostile when you dominate them, so quite possibly. And there's always hunters...
...but why Voinians hire Crescent Warships to hunt you down when you dominate one of their systems is beyond me.

Nope. Generally, if you dominate a planet, it's less likely to give you special missions.
Elmalgha hire CWs too.... strange.. I thought for sure they'd hire UE...

They should, but the engine used in Escape Velocity and EV Override doesn't support having more than one type of bounty hunter.

I'm not much for dominating, but I know a bit. Less missions (especially crucial threads) and, of course, you get a price on your head. But I'm just repeating what others have said...

You should still be able to get them, but your legal status is quite down the drain at that point. You can still run missions with those stellars as your destination, however.

Nope; as David Aurthur said, the engine doesn't support multiple bounty hunters, and simply turning the bounty hunter "off" isn't an option on a system-by-system basis. I believe that it is possible to edit the bounty hunter into being something completely worthless (ie: shuttle) so that it isn't a problem.

If you have bounty hunter problems then just take the time to capture some to take out future hunters so you dont have to.

Everyone thinks I'm psychotic except for my imaginary friend who lives in my finger...
Is there any special way of fending off large masses of fighters when being attacked by a bounty hunter? So far, every time I encounter a bounty hunter, there seems to be a bunch of renegade crescent warships nearby and they all launch crescent fighters my way. Are there an effective weapons or techniques against this type of attack or do I simply need escorts?

You can have an ship that is faster than the other so you can kill them one by one. Just watch out for those deadly krait swarms

Those damn swarms of cresent fighters were always my biggest problem. I remember this one particularly annoying mission for the Zachit. I could take out the capital ships fine, but so many fighters came at me at once. Needless to say, I was eventually saved by the Incontrovertible. 
------------------
Knowledge is power, but ignorance is bliss.
What really bites is when I hire all these escorts to fend off these krait/crescent fighter/azdara swarms, they usually go off engaging the capital ships that launched the fighters, leaving me and my flaming hull to be blazed or phased to oblivion. Sigh... I've never seen the Incontrovertible. Would be nice if it showed up during one of those Azdara raids. Maybe I can even ask for an autograph before it leaves

n00b Question
I have a Vononian Fighter Bay and when I launch the fighters they just sit around and don't do anything, is there a way to make 'um attack a specific targer?

The easiest way to handle swarms of fighters is an afterburner. Once I strapped one of those babies onto my Igazra, it could jet out of the system and make it so the fighters got strung out, so I could pick them off one by one until there weren't enough left to effectively swarm me. Remember Zsinj's Doctrine: never fight on a battlefield your enemy has chosen.
