Oh yes please nothing that fancy! It is a long game, a *very* long game, and should not start with high tech lying around. Everybody should have enough time to develop and build ringworlds if he likes. Same goes for long-distance wormholes - no need to make crossovers into every corner of the galaxy possible, no need to have contact with all 20 players after a few turns. From my experience in NGC3, when empires get bigger, wormhole openers tend to appear in significant numbers - although the game will be only in a "middle" stage then.
