Q - when the map editor comes out, how big could a user make a map, and how many planets max could we make, would bigger maps get sluggish while playing?
You will be able to make very large maps, but there is a maximum size. However, you can have as many planets as you can fit (so you could conceivably have 20 if you wanted, though who knows if games on that map would ever finish).
Q - could a user create pre deployed maps, or atleast maps where each player already owns a ton of planets each, so players can get on with the carnage, awwwwww I'm just draeming of it now hahahahahaha (insert evil laugh here)
Yes, you can assign unit ownership when you build the maps.
I just want somthing to make up for the crappy starwars sequels/prequels[:D]
Sounds like fun, though I'm a Trekkie myself.
