Just out of curiosity, is it possible in the game code for two galaxies to be connected to each other by more than one warp? If it seems like the game is too defensive (I won't judge whether or not it is), more warps could be added, increasing the number of potential chokepoints.

Also, while it is a great test of alliance logistics to have to op with unos being really far away, it would probably encourage more activity if they were at least slightly closer to potential targets.

In the spirit of the topic, 20-man alliances are not a good idea at all. I think the reasons have been pretty well explained already.

Lets make a tiny galaxy with all the weapons, then a big one for trading. Remove all mines, put the planet level cap at 30.

Then lets party.

I asked spock about this today and thats what incited the admin message from him heres what he told me

[15:08] <seldum> alliance is gonna be 20 man next game right
[15:08] <seldum> ?
[15:09] <MrSpock> probably not
[15:09] <seldum> no
[15:09] <seldum> so its gonna be 30?
[15:09] <MrSpock> 25 or 30 not sure there, yeth
[15:10] <seldum> definitely not 20 then?
[15:10] <MrSpock> no
[15:11] <seldum> so its still undecided
[15:11] <seldum> but more likely its gonna be 25 or 30
[15:11] <MrSpock> indeed

just leave 30 man since they aren't doing 20 man...

I've gotta agree doing 25 man would just set everyone off. Admins said they were definitely doing 20-man, now they're not sure. Eh.

EDIT: whoops, bad word :/

20 or 25 if the admins are also going to listen to the other suggestions we've put forward about this (that won't require much coding, but will improve a 20 man game)

or

30 if they can't be bothered.
