No deciding war between the last two large races? So which decision would be better then? I cannot think of any other option where one of the two players will agree that he lost, without a nice battle in the end. Except maybe when there is a preset rule, which we dont have. I guess we will never find a satisfying answer to this problem, and perhaps it should be reconsidered for future North Star games.

And the Crystal is by far not invincible. Any race can beat him with the right strategy, even the Privateer

Well snouka, there are some problems here.

You can't force people to have a deciding war when the two strongest races have 200 planets and ships each. Making proper turns in such situation will take too long and there is even no clarity that any advantage could be achieved in long period of time.

And there is a race like Tholian with main tool or feature to stop/slow any offensive. Forcing other players to attack Tholian directly (to battle it out) is like adding value to webs. Do you see it? Same as making any economic winning condition will add value to economic features and so on.
