LOL...cross posted with ya, Geo.
If you guys are interested...I can do the Balance mod and adjust starting positions. Just so you know (as others have who have had my "adjustments"), I do NOT place the empires as far away from each other as possible. What I do DO is give them what I think is adequate room. How much room is best to be left undisclosed, IMHO, because I don't want the players to "know" they have the whole map to expand in without trouble. This, in my opinion, still leaves a bit of guessing on just how far away the opponent is and just how much expanding can be done safely.
Just let me know.
