IEN. What ever empire it may be should never exceed more than 130. And that has have a good reason, agressiveness or whatever. Anytime that it is this large should be a finite time that it is, the peak or Golden Age. Usually followed by something else.

LoT. Depends on what kind of Human Empire we refere to. Something of the Age of Strife can have more tech than the IoM, the Great Crusade showed that. But nothing overwelhming. Now a breakaway or rebel or secessionist empire should only have the what the Imperium has and maybe some small additions or maybe a little less. Depends. Maybe they have Mechanicus support. But nothing like new titans.

IX. If they aren't OP or illogical then why? Because no one has tried a non-hyper advanced race doesn't mean it cannot happen. As for the tech involved, even the use stasis-ships would get them, just not in any convienant amount of time. Just following standard rules of no Eldar level tech or Galaxy changing forces.
