I known that there is not a “No Colony setting”, but it can be modded to replicate that effect. Using the option to colonize only home world type and atmosphere would multiply the random luck effect of any map.

Maybe that’s getting too fancy in the setup.

Yeah, maybe too fancy setting a mod up for it. Especially when there is a Balance Mod that has 2 versions to make things equal (or mostly equal). Or, if that is too predictable, perhaps a map and manual placement off the Paradise quadrant.

Otherwise, I agree to all your other proposals:

Medium Tech start
No Mines
No Intel
No Stellar Manipulation.

Ok
Either mod is fine with me.

One Planet of Good quality.

We can add more planets if you like. I only removed the 5 because I thought it might be related to having no colony type. So, if you want that back in, it's fine with me.

Alneyan said there was a randomness problem with multiple home world start.

So lets stay with one.

Then, it looks like:

One Planet of GOOD quality
Medium Tech start
No Mines
No Intel
No Stellar Manipulation
Balance Mod 2.0 (the most recent one Geo made)
Manual placement


I'll begin working on my empire.

Good luck and good gaming!

I'm ready in my first SEIV-game within a year and very eager to see how I manage after the absence. Do I still remember how to play...
