I also noticed that the option for asteroids is missing.

That is the thing. In SuperNova, I might just be blind, but I don't see an option to set stars to rare. Just habitable planets, extreme planets, and number of sectors...
Will there be an option to limit the number of stars created such as with habitable planets and extreme planets? I enjoy playing on the largest galaxies, but want to really limit the stars and planets available for colonies.
I always wanted to see a strategy game like civ or galciv, with tactical battles like panzer general series. Control points and combined arms.
If the game had characters, I would love the ability to give them ranks/titles. For instance, if the government was an empire, I could give the planetary governor a title such as a Duke. Maybe even make him lord over a few planets, which would give lots of benefits, but who knows, maybe that duke would eventually rebel and setup his on empire. For a republic, it could be senators, or chancellor's. I am sure there are lots of titles which could give stat boosts
Actually Turn Based Multiplayer works very well. There are many ways to implement it. Anyone that has played Civ 4 can see a great way. simultaneous turns... time limits... My wife and I play Civ 4 all the time multiplayer and with mods also. Sure it can take a few days for us to play a game, but doesn't that occur in civ 4 withour multi and also in Gal Civ 2. Sure, it is hard to get a few friends together over a few days to play
