Trying my frist immense map

from GalCiv2 Forums

I have never played a map larger then medium before, and I always use scattered stars when playing.

I am about to start my first immense map tonight and I am looking for some opinions on what density to use from players who have played immense before.

What do you guys think? Scattered, Loose clusters, Tight Clusters?

Side note: are there map types that can be found that represent our own galaxy type, spiral. How about a ring galaxy?

I usually go for tight clusters, common planets but rare habitable planets and about 8-9 opponents including me.

I find the rare habitable/common planets usually gives a decent number of planets without the game becoming to overwhelming. When i play with 8 opponents everyone usually gets about 15-25 colonies each.

 

Also abundant asteroids and anomolies and random minor races with frequent mega/random events and occasional extreme planets.

 

hope this helps.
