Balance mod or not is no biggie with me. I have only played with it once so I think I can handle another game http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Did you guys want to use Geo's balance mod given the rated grudge-ness of this one?

Whoever does it, should generate (with ruins turned off) a medium spiral map that "looks good" for a team game and one that leans toward the large size (I've noticed that the size of the maps generated with medium can sometimes be kind of small).

I was under the impression that if you set starting points on the Star it would pick it somewhere in the system, yet it puts it on top of said star. So I should have set up start point in a spot in the system?

When I set a start point, I usually just pick a spot near the center. I figure it's no big concern.

And remember, set specific start points (1 and 3 on one side and 2 and 4 on the other).

As to number of systems, I've never counted. I just noticed that there was a fairly big difference in the size of maps generated by "medium spiral". That's why I said pick one of the larger ones.

Allrighty Grudge match of doom contestants...
I will (attempt to)start you of tonight when I get home from Uni.

Good luck, and may the most cunning, underhand and sneaky team win!
