Wow, that really is an obscene number of planets in each system. How many planets does each player get?

The only real difference between maps I noticed was that "clust5.map" had several empty systems that are effectively free for the taking for any empire that wants to bother to warp in, ignite a star, and build a sphereworld. I guess they could also end up being the major battle fields, since it would be hard to get a system shield up and running in these systems in any reasonable time. I suppose "clust5.map" is my favorite, although I'd prefer less planets per system.

I guess I was just expecting a "conventional" map, except with balanced planet numbers.

Edit: I don't mean to sound harsh, Tesco. I do appreciate the fact that you made these maps for us.
