In the past, when I hosted similar games, I found that many players were not beginners ... for lacks of games, many of them were intermediates or even experts; when the games started, after few turns, clearly I was able to recognize the real beginners, from the more expert ones.
So, also this time, I thought that almost all type of players could be answer to the call.
About the universe size, my idea was simple:
- for a real beginner, having time (for example) to develop his empire, having time to discover how the remote mining works, how to terraform, how to research, etc ... WITHOUT HAVING TO DEAL WITH ONE OR MORE AGRESSIVE PLAYERS near to him, it can really be useful; you have time to try, discover errors, new tactics, without to be in hurry fighting an enemy.
BTW, an huge universe seems large, but in a relative short number of turns, you'll find other players ... so it is not so large as you can think.
In the past I had no problem with this size ... yes, some players dropped from the games, but this occours almost in all games for variuos reason.
This is based on my personal past experiences as a host and as a player ... but are sensations of mine.

Anyway, if I don't reach the desired number of players, I can arrange a small game as a players and as a universe size.
