Fine with me. Geo, can you please set up the game?

And how approximately how big is a Tesco map anyway? How many systems?

Yep, as soon as you both upload empires.

Tesco maps vary widely in size and style. The only common point is that the empire placement is evenly distributed. If you have a particular type you want let me know, otherwise I'll just pick one randomly.

Okay, so tesco maps don't seem to work with Devnull for some reason. I'm getting error Messages too and I'm pretty sure it's not my copy of Devnull (just completed a turn of Puke's Mail Order Monsters and it ran fine).

So Parabolize, want to go with a regular randomly generated map?

Geo, if so, I'd like an opportunity to slightly tweak my empire file before the game starts.
