Why do all races have the same size space suit?

Hmm.....you would need two of different races close together to compare them. Obviously all (non-Xenon/Khaak) races are humanoid, i.e. 2 arms/legs etc. . So one would expect the space suits to look very similar and differ by size only.

Why isn't fuel needed in the X-Universe? Or is it just scooped up as you go along in space from debris and floating gases? Why is there a comm range of only 8 km, yet you can be sent mission-related text and audio messages from anywhere? Why do all the weapon particles move so painstakingly slow, as well as missiles? Why do the ships move so slowly (1009 km/hr is the fastest in the universe! A jet-powered car on earth can go that fast!)? Why? Because it's the X-Universe!

the paranid have 3 eyes and consider 3 holy and anything with a number of eyes other than 3 (or a multiple of three unholy) but they certainly dont have three of everything

Hah - like the big dragon Fireblade :D

When a Xenon ejects what happens - do a load of floppys stream out of the cargo bay.

When a Khaak ejects guess what you get - yep a space fly - dont ask me to prove it I just know its true. Thats why there are so many spaceflies - the ease at which Khaak eject has caused a huge swarm of em. :P
