As fate would have it, I'm in need of a 8-player medium mid-life galaxy for a game I'd like to start this week. If someone could make me this map (using Geoschmo's quick technique), I'd gladly return the favor by producing several like maps for PBW. Again, the maps don't need to be balanced except for making the starting positions evenly distributed. (though if you want to make sure no one is shut in by a black hole, that'd be nice too...)
