Especially considering that you're an ancient race, eh?
Personally, I rarely use the unique ruin tech. The only one I really lust after is the planetary shielding now that it's been souped up in the latest patch.

I am glad you like my suggested map. The map will have several clusters of systems which are only connected by one line.
Choke points good.

As for ancient quadrant type: I never use it, so remind me , how does that affect things? I seem to recall someone saying it gives you way too many black holes and asteroid fields...
"Way too much" is in the eye of the beholder. It completely screws up the AIs, they are extremely stupid when it comes to handling long distances between resupply depots and travel through black holes/damaging warp points. However, I think that features like this can be positively dreamy when you're up against a whole bunch of humans. It requires a lot more preparation before and during invasions.
As for timing considerations, I don't mind only having one or maybe two turns per day; once we're past the initial slowness of the first year or two I'm sure things will be complicated enough to keep me interested.
