Keep in mind that 32 empires with 1000 systems means each empire would be able to have ~31 systems to its self, which seems like a nice robust number. After all if it was 100 empires in 1000 stars, you'd be bottled in before you could even really start expanding and exploring. I think it's a good number, and as the theme goes it can probably be modded to have 1000 empires for 1000 stars.

No thanks. If I want that kind of thing, I'll just play someone in the HRE in EU 4

I read all three articles and this tells you the most interesting stuff. It sounds just perfect.

Yeah the details about how you can uplift and use minor races to expand your empire and then watch them become dicks is amazing. Really looking forward to hearing morea about pops.

New screenshots!

Kinda like how the birdmen fleet is called "flock"

Anyone ever play Birth of the Federation? I loved it back in the day.

I still hope GOG will release it, but their Star Trek line seems to be stillbirth after all.
