Always a solution.
If you conquer them, they can suddenly talk to you.^^

If I remember correctly, Communication is influenced by the NPR Xenophobia stat, your race's Xenophobia stat and Translation Skill stat and your diplomatic team skill.
You can see your race stats on the right side of the CTRL-F2 View Race Stat window, accessed from the main menu bar. You can even change it in SM Mode if you've started with your random race at -26 Translation Skill, like mine did.

Sometimes, they can translate the alien language after only a few weeks, somtimes they tell you, the language is too alien to ever be translated after trying for a couple of months.

Still, it tells me that I did not establish full communications..
How do I do this?
