Another facet of observer races to take into consideration. Location!

In the games I've hosted with an observer race I've gone to pains to make my HW be as neutral a location as possible (odd that it also seems to facilitate my scouting...) I use a .def file and seed for the galaxy generation and generally verify that the races are fairly distributed - and then put my race in the dead center if possible. That makes the zone around my HW that would normally be claimed by an active race somewhat equidistant to all races. Never did it perfectly - but I try to minimize the impact if I can.

You could always use the Universe Creator to move your HW to an out-off-the-way spot when possible.

How about minimizing the impact on research? I mean the SS spy bonus?

mch
